Chapter 15 - The Author

And at that time they were shopping. They went to the lingerie store.

And while Peyton was looking, she envisioned that she might have worn it in front of a man she would love, and all of a sudden she remembered Cormack.

Peyton just shook her head, because she knew it was outlandish for her to like her even if they met in person.

Her friends noticed that she seemed to be daydreaming. "Are you going to buy that?" May asked her.

Peyton suddenly back to her senses, as she didn't realize that she was holding a very sexy underwear.

"Buy what?" Peyton said,

"The one that you are holding, duh,' May said.

Peyton glanced at her hand, and there she saw the sexy underwear, it was see through.

"No, I'm not wearing this kind of undies, I'm just captivated by it, it was so hot, but I don't like it," Peyton said. "Well, once you got a boyfriend, I'm sure you will have that!" May chuckled. ….

Cormack is in the room with Arnold and they are having a drink. Arnold played music, and by chance, it was Cormack's theme song with her first girlfriend as his first love, when he was in high school back then. He was in love with this woman then, and their relationship lasted for three years. Cormack was hurt when the woman walked away without saying goodbye to him, so from then on, he didn't court any woman, he didn't take the woman seriously, and he just played with them. Arnold noticed that Cormack seemed moved by the music he was playing, "Hmn, you seem to remember something about that song," Arnold said with a smile.

"Yes, you're right, the first woman I loved, but she ignored that love, so I don't want to fall in love anymore," Cormack said.

Arnold thought. "Ah I know, is Penelope that woman? Your high school sweetheart?" Said Arnold. "Good and you still remember," Cormack said.

"Who can forget that woman, she is very beautiful, and smart,"

"Yes, case cheater, left me for no reason,"

"Because you were young then,"

"Even though, I was very hurt then,"

"If she comes back, will you accept her?"

Arnold asked.

Cormack suddenly thought into what Arnold had said. "Hmm, probably, she's the only woman in my life,"

"What about the woman in the painting? Your dream girl? "

Cormack was confused by Arnold's question.

"I don't know, I'm still confused, but when Penelope was gone in my life, I had no other hope to see, but her, I'm waiting for her return, but she hasn't shown up yet, ten years have passed,"

Cormack said sadly while drinking brandy.

"You're only 19 years old then bro, if she didn't leave, you must have separated too, you were still young at that time, weren't you?" Said Arnold.

"But I love her, I wanted to get married then," said Cormack

"Really?"

"Yes, if you only knew how much I was hurt, since she disappeared, I don't want another woman anymore, so I just had fun with myself.

"And you became a playboy?"

"I don't want to have a serious relationship anymore, I'm happy now, and I have no plans to fall in love anymore, unless she comes back, or to meet the woman in the painting," Cormack replied.

"What if, you see them together?" Arnold asked.

"Can you, don't ask like that, I can't even see one of them, at the same time?" Cormack scoffed.

"Yeah by the way," Arnold chuckled.

Flashback ..

Cormack is in Barcelona, Spain with his first love named Penelope.

They are happy holding hands while walking, they are strolling on a walking bridge, from the bridge, there is a beautiful view of the city.

They took a selfie and they were so happy.

"Did you know I'm writing a book now," Penelope said.

"Really?"

"Yes,"

"And why did you think of writing huh?" Cormack asked cheerfully.

"That inspires me because of you,"

"Because of me?"

"Yes, because of you I thought of writing,"

"Is it about our love story?"

"Some part of, but not totally our story," Penelope replied.

"So, what is the title of your book?"

"Hmm, Billionaire's island!"

"Billionaire's island?"

"Yes, some part of it, our story, but it's weird,"

"Why is it weird?"

"I wrote all the things that I want to happen for the two of us, for our future and hopefully come true," said Penelope,

"What do you want to happen?"

"I hope we will be together until we grow old, you will be mine forever, and I will be yours forever,"

"That can happen, because I won't let you go," Cormack said happily as he put his arms around her .

"We're still kids, I'm afraid there might be many more obstacles to our relationship," she said.

"Don't think like that,"

"When my book is finished, I will be self-published it, to make my dream of becoming an author," she said.

"I will support you in your dream,"

"Or maybe, our love story is still my first book, I hope people will enjoy it,"

"That will happen, I have confidence in your ability,"

"It's just that the story I'm writing seems too good to be true,"

"Why did you say that?"

" You are the son of Mat Alcafone, the richest man in the world, and I am just an ordinary girl, our family is not known in society," "Don't think like that, as long as I love you," Cormack said.

"I'm so lucky that I got a scholarship in that school, if not, I will not meet you," Penelope said.

"I'm also lucky that I met you, I love you so much," Cormack grinned and they happily took pictures.

A few months later, Penelope's book was published and became popular.

"Congrats my love, people enjoy your work,"

"If people only knew that the character in my book was you, they would surely envy me!" Penelope said feeling happy.

"Am I that handsome in your eyes huh," Cormack said.

"Of course,"
