CHAPTER 28

"Hello?" someone knocked on the door and made my body tremble and panicked.

Without hesitation, I push Leo out of my sight and walk away from the door. No one bothered to open it nor answered the calls. I was nervous but managed to open it.

"Maam Lu--," The girl didn't continue his words when she saw Leo behind me.

"Oh god, Im sorry ma'am I didn't--," I cut him off. She's being too noisy.

"No, it's fine. Give another room," I mumbled in a cold tone.

Leo held my hand when Im about to go out. I face him with irritation and confusion. The girl turned her back so she won't see what are we doing. I tap her back and raised an eyebrow at her.

"I said find me another room,"

"Ah! yes ma'am! right away ma'am," She answered in nervousness and walk away.

As I was walking away from that room, U notice that someone is looking at me. When I reach the railings, I saw nothing. There's no Lea and some of my schoolmates.

Im the only one who is here and walking on this yacht. Into my irritation, I run to Leo's room to ask why Am I the only whos in here. There are maids and couples of fishermen who are busy looking at the sea.

I tried to approach them but im scared they won't believe me if I said I was kidnapped.

"Leo!" I run and held his hand to face me. As he faces me I slapped him hard.

"What the fuck! is this!?" I shouted in front of him telling him how I hated this fucking tricks of him.

"One more slap Lucia, you won't like it if I fired back," He warned me but I didn't mind his fucking words.

"You're crazy!"

"I am!"

"I am! crazy chasing for you!" he continued and shouted back.

That made me stop shouting and stare at him. He facepalms and went closer to me but I step my feet backward.

"Don't dare to come closer," I warned him.

He smirked and gritted his teeth before looking into my eyes.

"Why is it so hard for you to love me again?" He asks in a furious voice.

"I bet you know what's the answer to that question," uttered in a calm way.

"If I would exp--," "What Im asking is! where on earth are we!?" I paused and pointed to the large sea.

"You're doing your fucking ideas again! Cant you see!? im supposed to be in Palawan! why am I here!... with you!!" I continued and screamed everything to him.

My mind is devastating and exhausted. I can't take this anymore. This plan of him is making my life miserable again! this sucks! He was trying to reach for my hands but I sway them away.

This is the last time I will join a field trip! After the scene in Leo's room, I fixed myself and prepared for his fucking ideas.

He said we were heading to Palawan but he wanted us to visit the Batanes and it's way far from Palawan.

I have no other choice. Though I have my phone and call my parents to get me out of here, I didn't do. This would be good also if I end this game with Leo.

With this, he will stop chasing me. Everything is getting better when he's far away from me but when he tried to intrude my life again. It began to be like hell.

He was in the kitchen cooking our dinner while Im in the railings looking at the large waves of the sea. Perhaps, it made me relax. Feeling the touch of the sea's air and hearing those slaps of waves in the yacht.

When I heard Leo's calls I didn't bother to take a look at him. His face is making me more irritated and angry. Of all plans why does this one make him do? This is an idiot plan but still, he continues.

"Lucy lets it dinner's ready." He called and went on my side.

"Remember the first ti--," I cut him off.

Im tired of listening to all his lies. His lies are making me miserable.

"Let's just eat and please. Stop talking about our past. That was a year ago, and I have no plans to go back on it." I paused.

This is going to be a hurtful word but I just want him to know that Im, not the same as before. He hurt me too much and I want him to stop doing it again and again.

"Im only here because you wanted me to visit Batanes and my grandmother. After these bullshit ideas of yours, you'll stop chasing for me. Gets?" There, I said to him everything.

My eyes saw his serious and painful eyes. But even if he cried in front of me, I still don't want him to be part of my life again.

"Lucia...If I tell you everything, would you listen and forgive me for what I did in our past?" Leo asks while holding my hands in the railings.

"I forgive you. But that doesn't mean that you're allowed to the middle in my life again." I answered calmly and lifted my hand away from his hands.

"Thank you. Thank you for forgiving me even though I caused you a lot of pain," he uttered while looking at the large waves of the sea.

"Don't thank me just because I forgive you. I only give my forgiveness once and please, stop chasing for me." mumbled in a begged baritone.

"If that's what you wish, then I'll do it." He answered and granted me a kiss on my cheeks before he walks away from me.

We eat dinner as nothing happened and we didn't talk about our past. He was calm and focused on his food while I am also.

The maids serve us a lot of food and desserts but I refuse to eat all them. Im on a diet and have no plans to eat a lot.

In the middle of our dinner. Leo informed me that our lecture teachers and some of my schoolmates including Lea.

They all knew that I was with Leo and we were heading to Batanes. He wanted to visit it again before we continue to Palawan.

Though it will take us a few days before we reach the Batanes, Leo still wanted to pursue going in there. After our dinner, we said goodbyes to each other and went to our individual rooms.

The feeling of awkwardness is killing me and those who overthink. There are lots of thoughts running in my mind but I can't stop thinking about if my parents knew about this.

Im was afraid they might get angry because Inlet Leo brings me to Batanes with him only.

Even if I run and jump in this yacht my mind won't stop having a lot of overthinks. If I jump in the sea, would it be safe? If's is circulating through my brain that led me into a lot of worries.

Things wouldn't be like this if, in the first place, I push Leo away from me. I was facing the high ceiling when each slap of the waves made me awaken.

Instead of staying in my room, my feet were walking out of the bed. The whole yacht is peaceful and quiet. There are no more people who watch the sea. There was a high chair behind those crowbars railings.

I went closer to it and sat on the soft chair. I took a deep breath and spare everything in the air. They may be quiet but they also had fears and worries. Sometimes I compared myself to a piece of paper.

I just don't know why, but I felt the pain of a paper. When they got a wrong written in the paper. Either they erase it or throw it everywhere.

Yet, for me, I was just like the paper. I made a lot of wrongs and some people were looking down on me. Like I was trash and desperate for everything.

My tears slowly fall into my face. I felt the heat of each of my tears.

My hand gently wipe those wet tears and covered my face to not make a noise if I cried.

A few moments, I felt the dizziness of my body. Maybe because of the sea's waves. Im a bit scared of it but it always amazes me looking at the beautiful view.

I went back into my room and let myself be comfortable in the large bed. It was all smooth and even the pillows and comforter were all smooth. The only thing I remember is my eyes were slowly closing their own.
