Sometimes, no one could tell if one thing was right or wrong, so one would not be able to escape their mistakes and it consequences. He had been angry and annoyed with Becky, but he thought he should be responsible for her and what happened to her. Not just because she was Mol's family, but also because she was living a peaceful life now and she longed for the nicer things that life has to offer.
With the sound of the wheels of the airplane leaving the ground, the plane gradually left the scenery behind. When it was okay, Brian unfolded the safety belt for Molly carefully, and then said calmly, "Do you know where we're going this time?"
They were from the Dragon Island and they were the members of Long family, so she didn't see the boarding passes from the beginning to the end. Besides, they were through the VVIP section, so she had no idea where they were headed.
But Molly just laughed at it, pointing at somewhere in the cabin, and said with her eyebrows raised, "I will know it in less than three minutes……"
Right after Molly said this, an announcement came on. "Good afternoon, everyone. This is your captain Thompson Tang speaking. The flight is going from Dragon Island to Moonlight Island. We will be there in seven hours and five minutes."
Molly smiled a little bit wider when she heard the voice of the captain. She felt… that she would know it sooner or later. Because of that, she wasn't curious at all.
"But do you know why I chose Moonlight Island as our destination?" Brian smiled, looking at Molly with his sexy, deep-set eyes.
Molly actually had no idea and didn't know what was in Brian's mind, but she said, "Moonlight Island is one of the best resorts in the world."
Brian smiled, nodding, but didn't tell his real intention.
Moonlight Island sounded beautiful, but it had a prettier name - "Purple Night". The whole island was like a purple ocean. Even the lavender fields in Provence would look gray in comparison. All the flowers on the Moonlight Island would inevitably become purple, no matter what color they were at the start.
It was not because of the soil texture. It was manipulated by people. It was because Shirley liked purple, so a crazy man changed everything there for her. Shirley liked purple, so Richie made sure that Moonlight Island would be purple.
This place was Shirley's hometown. Brian found out everything even if his parents didn't tell him anything. Somehow, he respected Ryan for loving a woman so crazily. He just couldn't agree with his neglect of people's feelings when he made the arbitrary decision he did.
Taking Mol to the Moonlight Island was not just because it was Shirley's hometown. Brian also wanted to create a unique romantic memory with her, for her. But he would not behave too insolently.
He wasn't Ryan who wanted to take full control of who he loved. At the same time, he also didn't consider himself a Richie who was in charge of everything. He was him. A man who Mol wanted to love. He was Brian.
Love was like boiling water. The water would be boiled away and the kettle would be empty if it was heated too fast. In the end, it wouldn't be able to recover. What he wanted was not something like that. He wanted to boil the water in low heat, controlling the temperature until it reached the boiling point. The relationship he wanted with Molly was a relationship that would go slowly and steadily into forever.
Love was not just about romance, responsibilities or being together…… Love was putting everything about her in your heart and making her a part of your being and your life.
There were different kinds of views about Moonlight Island, and the story about Shirley and Richie was still going to be something that would forever be ingrained in it, but he didn't want anyone else to tell the Brian and Mol's story but them. What he wanted was the both of them having a piece of each other that they would be hurt if they lose one another.
"Mol…" Brian said.
"Yes?" Molly, who was reading a magazine, responded. Then she frowned and looked up at Brian who didn't respond back……
