CHAPTER 5

I do not know how long I have been blindfolded.

Then something dawned on me.

I quickly opened my eyes and turned to Iven. It was still staring at the rising sun.

I could not read his face and I did not want to try. He was right next to me.

Maybe he noticed I was looking at him he turned in my direction. For a moment we stared at each other. I felt connection between us.

"You're my destiny" I said while staring at him

I remember the sign I told charlize. iven was the man with whom, I wetnessed the sunrise that mean he was may destiny. Atleast this is what I want to believe.

"There's no such thing as destiny" he said fatly

The bitterness attached to its voice did not escape me. I saw that for a moment in his eyes.

i reached for his cheeks. My heart ached for him.

I wanted to ask Iven what the reason was and why you believed that but he suddenly averted his eyes.

Iven was about to get up but I quickly stopped him. He was running away from me again.

"Don't run away Iven,you can stay here "

I got up. I still do not want to leave him but Iven needs more peace because of this scenario than me.

It was the first time he showed me that kind of emotion. It always shows irritation whenever I scratch.

But earlier the sadness of its eyes. i intended to find out what or who had done that to him.

PARTY

"Which is more striking? The blue one or the red one?" I asked charlize

It only took a moment to glance at the swimsuit I showed

"what?" she ask

charlize lowered the paperback reading "are you serious?"

"What do you think?" I stare it in the eye "Aren't you excited for the beach party later. Iven is so hot and so is james. We just have to be sexy for them most of it. The dry of our escapades, girl. We are like pindangga. "

"The red one" is its forced answer

I frowned and wondered how it would react. I noticed earlier that it did not attend the party.

"Do you have a problem charlize?" I asked "yesterday I noticed you look sluggish. Is something bothering you, girl?"

"I'm bored" is its brief explanation

"Bored?" i was suprised "you used to love the beach"

"I guess! I'm just not into beaches right now"
