The Bad Boy's Heart Is Broken のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

Kathryn breathed out and breathed in, smiling ear to ear as she inhaled the fresh, breezy air coming from the ocean. She could hear the waves gently crashing to the different rock formations, seagulls flying around, and the boats making splashy sounds as they gently stroked through the water surface."So beautiful!" Her eyes were twinkling excitedly as she bent down and watched from her seat the little fishes going visible through the clean transparent sea."Oh! Earl, look, look! It's Nemo!" Kathryn pointed, her hand trying to grab Earl who was seated next to her in the ferry.Earl looked over and frowned. "Kathryn, it's not Nemo, it's Dory!"Kathryn bent her head closer to the water, unbothered by how the ferry was still running, the fish still swimming with them. "No, Earl, look closer. It's Nemo!"Earl thought it was ridiculous, but it was really a blue tang he was seeing and not a clown fish. He couldn't help

"Sandra? ...Adelaine? ...Mandy?”Kathryn's eyes glowed through the darkness of the room. She could hear the soft snores from her shared-room classmates, Sandra, Adelaine, and Mandy, going along with the gentle waves coming from the sea outside. There was a rattle of leaves from a nearby tree, showing its shadows through the glass window intruding the room. After calling for the fifth time without having a reply, Kathryn slowly slid out of her covers. The piece of paper Zachary gave her said he'd be waiting by the spiral stairs. That was a bit far from the hotel they were staying at, having an estimated twenty minute walk towards the place. It was getting colder and darker, being past ten in the evening now. Kathryn wondered if Zachary really was there, waiting for her to come.Kathryn bit her bottom lip and got up from her bed. She knew how Zachary could really be stubborn at times. And with the tone of voice he used a few hours ago, there was a 99 p

Zachary could feel his heart being squeezed in his chest. He couldn't breathe. The sight was too painful for him to see, yet he couldn't look away. Something deep inside him was telling him he shouldn't tear his eyes away from them, no matter how heart-wrenching it was. Kathryn had her head down while the tall, slender man was hugging her. It seemed like a friendly gesture, but because everybody had already spread the gossip Chad and Kathryn were a thing, they thought of it as romantic. They weren't people around though. It was just Zachary. He thought of it as romantic. Romantically cruel and painful for his own two eyes to see. "What the hell are you doing?" He bursts, anger evident in his voice as he couldn't let this thing happen anymore. He thought he could sneak off to Kathryn's room since Earl said he and his classmates were outside at the moment and that Kathryn was left alone and currently napping. Zachary terribly missed

The moment they arrived, people started to murmur around. Earl sighed. After Scarlet introduced herself as Zachary's future wife, everyone's jaw dropped. Just like Earl, nobody expected for such things to happen all of a sudden. And Earl was curious as hell, he was bugging Zachary about it but the latter seemed to have turned into a stone. He won't even speak, he was just letting Scarlet drag him with her everywhere. It was clear that day that Zachary wasn't acting like himself. Something must have happened, Earl thought to himself as he observed his best friend from afar.For the following days, this continued to happen, it happened again and again until everyone seemed to treat Scarlet as if she was a student in G University, too. She was warmly welcomed by everyone, especially by the Ballet Team, probably because of her doll-like face and body."You're so pretty, Scarlet," one of the Ballet Team, named Lisa, commented."Thanks," Scarlet replied, glad they wer

Kathryn was about to say something more but the man spoke first, "We need to go now. There might be rainfall later, it would be difficult to go to that island if it starts raining."They all looked up and it was still sunny. Kathryn and Vivian thought maybe the man was too old to see the weather. After placing the things they needed for the campfire in K Island in the boat, Kathryn hopped in. The boat started and drifted towards the said island.Kathryn was again left mesmerized by the sea. The water was cold against her skin and the way the fishes danced along with the boat they were in made Kathryn's heart warm in awe. The place was beautiful and calming. Somehow, her worries seemed to dissipate whenever she let her mind wonder on what makes this island beautiful.Then it came to her. What if that was what Zachary was doing too? Did he find this place to be naturally beautiful too like Kathryn did? Did he also find comfort upon knowing this? Maybe. Maybe, Kath
