*Samantha's Point Of View* 

Well, I knew Holy would accompany me in this 'Vacation Thing'. But Ted taking the charge of this vacation thing was unpredictable. This CEO Duo can definitely make a good pair, only If Holy lets it to be. 

"So, Ted! I know it sounds weird but did you or did you not serving us the cocktails that night when we went to the bar?", I asked while sitting next to Ted in the car. The rear view mirror has my expression already cause Holy is sitting infront of the car. 

"Um well that's a secret, If you promise to keep than I'll tell you that!", Ted said while winking at the rear mirror. 

"Well, I can assure you completely, your secret is safe with me! But Um--", well I had to look at the rear mirror this time, I tilted my head. 

"Okay, I'm just gonna put some music on, not interested in your 't,oppo secret' conversation Sam", Holy said by putting on her earphones and turning up the volume to its top!

*End Of Samantha's Point Of View* 

*Ted's Point Of View* 

Samantha seems like a hardcore fan of my blogs! Well, she kinda has this free flow of talking, couldn't stop myself from speaking my heart out. It's definitely not a lie that, opposites attracts! This fits Samantha and C's friendship. One is extrovert, the other; talked to me being drunk, for a whole night by completely being an open book as If there's no tomorrow! But, today? I don't know. While chittchating w Samantha time was pretty fast to see that, we almost reached at the Airport! 

*End Of Ted's Point Of View* 

*Holy's Point Of View*

Knowing the secrets has no fun for me anymore, its feels like as If the past has still holding onto me. 

((FLASHBACKS))

"It will be fun c'mon Holy!! Just sneak out of your house when your Dad's asleep. I'll pick you up from your back door. okay?", Ruben said by putting his hands over my shoulders.

"You know na, I am trying to get along with dad. And after mom--", before I finish, 

Ruben declined and said, "Oh C'mon Holy! It's been forever okay! And how long will you try to do stuffs that your mom couldn't finish. Its a big party, I'm throwing it for us! I am gonna introduce you to my friends, at least value the wishes of those who are alive".

"I only visit him once a week, for one night! And after today classes breaks out, he's gonna pick me out from school and all we gonna do is spend a while until evening. Leaving his place after he falls asleep, feels like a crime to me!", I replied Ruben while closing the locker behind me which was open till now. 

"You know what!! If you don't show up, don't show me your face from tomorrow! Byee", he punched the locker beside mine, and left me alone on the hall way. 

The last period bell rang as well as Ruben fades away from my sight. All I could do was fighting the dilemma inside my head, is it me or just my misconception!

/Time Skip To Evening/

"The foods are okay, Dear?", Dad asked while pouring me a glass of cranberry juice. 

"The foods are fine. I don't drink cranberry juice anymore. I'll have water instead, don't worry", I replied while taking an empty glass. I took charge to get the jug.

"Umm, let me help you with that", Dad said while taking a step ahead. 

"I have managed this far pretty well till now, so don't worry I can help myself here too Dad", I said putting up a fake smile.

I could see my one statement had made him pretty upset. But can you,first break a mirror then start putting glue to make it look like how it was before, cause you're regreting it now?

"How was your school today? I heard there's winter festival for both students and parents. Did you fill the form for both of us? I've been preparing myself pretty goodly, you know!", Dad had an unusual but bright smile on his face. 

"Samantha had lost her form so I gave her mine. And besides since when, have you started taking interest into artificial things! I thought money and whisky on the rocks had your best interest since forever", I replied.

"I know I haven't been the ideal father since you have seen the world. I might not even showed up when you needed me the most but I'm trying my hard now, can you not be so cold to me Holy?", he saaid whipping out his eyes. 

"Well I guess im not ready yet. To forget n forgive you, for the mistake you've done dad", I said while leaving the food unfinished on the table. I washed my hands and locked my room while tearing out in silence.

// ON THE WINTER FESTIVAL //

"what happened ha Sammy? You literally woke me up from my beauty sleep to show what! what's the matter", I asked Samantha. She was waiting for me outside her stall. She had this weirdly worried face on that I could imagine something bad happened. But that was written on my fate, well I hadn't thought that.

"There's Steven, wait! Stevenn", Sammy shouted. 

"Oh you're here finally, Holy! Come on I have to show you something", Steven literally dragged me to the boys changing room for the soccer players of our school.

"Now don't tell me that you want me to shoot a porno to blackmail your ex so that she stops stalking you, Steven!", I protested. 

*moaning sounds*

"I am sorry but we had to show you this Holy! I hope you can handle it by yourself", Steven said and left. 

I was looking through the glass that was up in the door.I pushed the door and entered into the room only to find out that, my boyfriend was with someone else, having absolute orgasm. 

"So this is how you were spending the night, that day when I didn't show up earlier", my sentence broke the chemistry between the half naked Ruben n the cheerleading girl. 

"I guess I have to dress up and get going face time me later! Byee", the girl dressed herself up and while passing me by she whispered me, "I hope this is nothing personal Holy, I'm sorry", and she left the room.

"Well I thought you were sleeping at home now, Holy!", Ruben said while whipping out the falling tears from my cheeks.

"So it was true, since then! That day, on halloween, at the farewell. Everywhere!!", I couldn't stop myself from crying out hard. "If you had to play with someone then why didn't you pick out someone else like you? I was an easy catch, wasn't I? Answer me Ruben", I hardly breath in between this words.

"Well, I needed a break from you, im fucking bored by you. You're always nagging like a pathetic soul. What you thought ha! Anyone will accept someone like you, who's mother was a murderer? And someone who was assaulted, who will want to have something that's already used! I ain't such great Dear", Ruben started wearing his clothes.

"So now you're just gonna pretend that all that between us was nothing, merely words?", I asked, even though I knew his answer.

"Well I don't have to pretend anything now. I'm leaving for Spain next week remember? To have my Sports trials. And bam--", he chuckled while stroking into my hairs. "But I hope you are good at pretending, which you are I know now. Or else why would you wait this long to discover this that, darling I'm done with you".

Well, why did I just ignored all my instincts? But then, why now regret it! What If I just ignored the curiosity to know whats beyond my eyes...?

(( PRESENT TIME ))

"Holy are you asleep?? Wake up!! we'll miss our flight or else!", Sammy's voice hit my ears way to loud that I jumped out of the car seat. Well now I hit my head hard badly!

"You okay, C? Are you hurt", Ted asked. He has a little empathy on his face.

"I'm okay, sorry. I must have fall asleep. Let's move now", while saying I felt inside my head, what's it that im forgetting, "waitt where is my laptop and glasses", I started searching them inside the car. "Sammy?!", my eyes started to look for her. Well, she's nowhere to be found.

"I have them don't worry! Samantha gave these to me. She told me that, you would definitely worry about these If you don't carry em by yourself. So take them", Ted passed me the things to me.

"Um Thanks!", I couldn't keep the conversation on going. I felt heavy. I trembled my steps but Ted's help was there. 

"You feel dizzy? I have juice with me", Ted offered me a bottle full of cranberry juice, by passing me the same smile he had, the first day we met on the bar for the meeting.

While thanking him for the juice, I somehow managed to side cast the cranberry juice by not drinking it.

We went inside the immigration and then we found out that our flight has left already. Ted tried to re confirm this. I asked him to call Sammy, he took the number and tried. 

"well, C! She says to catch the next flight", Ted replied with some uncertainty. 

"I guess we have taken longer than we should've. Probably because I fall asleep and to wake me up, right?", I asked while sipping the water I had with me.

"I surely want to say no, but unfortunately YES!", Ted told me.

"I simply can not differ the sarcasm into sentences anymore, so pardon me", I said with an exhausting expression.

"I can manage a private jet?", Ted exclaimed while sitting next to the seat of mine.

"WOOW! So now you own a private jet? What next, private yacht in Bahamas", I tried to have a sarcasm in my tone to reply!

"Well, technically YES! I do own a yacht at Bahamas, but the private jet is still on the way. Quite impressive ha?", Ted said while giggling gigantically.

We sat there until Ted finished his typing on his phone. He seems to send text to someone, pretty slowly, well by saying that I mean, who does hover around their thumbs while texting. Okay maybe everybody does, but He ain't bored right? He was typing like in a mad rush on my laptop then, and now this slow! Ugh jumping froggy turtle! Yeah.

"well, our ride is going to be ready in half n hour! wanna grab something to eat meanwhile", Ted asked me putting his phone inside his brown leather jacket. When did he bring that anyways?

"I'm not hungry. You can grab your food", completely lying because I'm not sure whether I was hungry or its just a feeling that you can't decide whether you're sad or just nothing.

Ted stood up and said, "Okay, but do you want anything to drink a'least".

"No fine, I still have the cranberry juice left. I'm cool", I lied again, ugh kill my moods or me.

While putting up a pout in his face and nodding his head in the negative to affermative, Ted left for the food courts that Airports has.

I started to text Samantha that, Thanks to her, now I'll have to travel with the annoying mad jumping froggy turtle. God, blast you Sammy!! But in a gentle way, eff.

"Texting, who?", Ted asked while placing his subway sandwich aside. Well its not the only food he has.

While pointing out all the three food boxes I said, "wow, brought your dinner at ones!". "foodie froggy", I  said in a lower tone.

"Well as you said, you weren't hungry. But then I thought who", he exclaimed the word 'who' so wondering-ly and continued, " could say no to a strawberry filling brownie. So I bought you some and a packet of pringles!! After sweet you would rather crave for salty food or vise versa", Ted finished while opening the box of brownies!!

[ I won't lie, but I do make such desserts at home and eat when im alone so I thought, why not my protagonist will have the same taste, nice na :3. Well back to the story ]

I tried to stop myself by saying that I don't like sweets but well, its un-freakingly-believable! So I just thought, lets go with the brownies flow.

"So can we do the meeting before we take the flight or on the flight", I asked Ted but unfortunately I forgot the fact that I've been stuffing brownies into my mouth.

Laughing a little as If he was looking at a four years old, who was basically eating,"Why don't you finish your brownies first", he suggested me.

UGH, am I literally losing my mind with this persona? Help me satan, your side kick is making me like him!

"So I was saying-", 

He started whipping out my cheeks. Well I guess he just haven't seen any romantic movie, where it takes '20 pause for a Beat' before even a guy tries to whipe out the food from the girls lips and mouth area. Ugh what the eff im thinking. 

"Hum, continue", he began to tear the pringles packet as If it was just--- forget it.

I took a pause until he turned his face to me, to see why was I silent.

"Um.. I-wa-was. I am-, I wanted....to ask...", I don't know what happened. whether I lost words or they lost me? LIFE, its twenty first century, ima grown ass homan! Do I have to feel anything about this cliche behavior of a guy! Well obviously the annoying guy. But MAN, a CEO like me, has to know the management shit in every field so I continued, "well, when will we do the unfinished meeting". I pretended as If I didn't even stammered once! It was Close.

"umm sure, lets get into the jetty now! So, then we can both finish our work and enter into our glorious ' Vacation To-Dos in Bahamas'. Okay". 

I nodded my head as a response that I agree with 'annoying mad jumping froggy turtle' Ted.

Inside The Jet

The annoying, mad, definitely rich, jumping froggy turtle, isn't so bad, at least when it comes to doing what he says. Good!

"So you believe in not drinking stuffs from strangers partially", he said while half musting the laptop to start a conversation.

I shook my eyes to ask him what he was tryna sayin. 

He pointed out the almost hidden, but still now bottled up cranberry juice. 

I panned my head to my bags and well I got caught red handed. But I can explain. 

"Well I guess yes, I do", wtff, I should have said something else. Ugh what am I doing, well why am I doing! "CURSE YOU SAMMY".

"Because she left you alone or because she left you alone with me". 

I can't believe I just eff again talked ou loud my thoughts. Satan rather engulf me or LORD sue me.

I didn't reply anything more and keep on typing into my laptop while looking each corner of its screen. Because, my work was done long ago but I have no brain and humor left to literally throw them against this, particular species. So what I do? I just pretend that im working. The rest of the fly went through small business talk and showing the annoying guy all the research I've done in past few days. My silence might have hit his ego or whatever that, the rest of the time when we weren't talking about business, or showing each other charts and graphs and notes, all he was doing just hovering his thumbs around the keyboard. After a while, the flight attendent came and she whispered into Ted's ears. Well whatever. 

"We will land on Bahamas in a few minutes now. Hope we're done with this meeting"

I gave him a blinking eyes smiled and nodded. Then, "I will send these marked documents and charts to Boss once we land there", I informed him and started putting my stuff into the hand bag.

"You're too slow, I emailed all the details that we were talking. While we were discussing", he paused and brought out his phone. While opening his iMessaging app he continued, "and he got them. See he texted us to enjoy the vacation now".

"Okay. Hope its going to be a few less nausea days than the rest", I sighed while we were coming down from the jetty. 

"Well have you ever, like ever, enjoyed, from your heart, any vacation after becoming---". 

"No work, means empty mind. HOUSE full of demons!"

While texting someone, he said, "Huh, You should see and feel a proper vacation, like normal people". 

"WELL, If I haven't seen any how would I know its a proper vacation Mr. Bar Tender", I picked up my water bottle and started sipping while we walk out of the run way.

"You are in Bahamas now. I know how a proper vacation looks like, C", he said by stroking his one hand behind his neck.

By putting on my shades, "Well, How does a vacation look like", I asked him. 

This time, while whipping out the few drops of water from the corner of my lips, Ted looks into my eyes, as If He could see my eyes through the shades, 

"You can definitely not see If you keep on stealing your sights". And he brought out my shades from my eyes and hung them into the V neck silver lingning mid dress I was wearing.
