Ashley Walters pov

Pain. Hurt. Sorrow.

Everything started attacking me, all at once. Edith was not allowed to erase it? For Justin, it should mean nothing. He was NOT supposed to cherish it.

I was not aware if I was strong enough to carry on with my assignment. Evelyne brought us out of that cottage and asked Edith to close the gates behind us.

“Where would we stay?” Aniya asked her worriedly.

“Anywhere but not here,” Evelyne replied to her, “We might drive back home.”

Instead of heading to the car, we went to the beach. I laid back on the sand not caring in the world if it would dirty my clothes.

“Girl! That was some hot stuff written on that table. Ashley, you need to go and talk to Justin. No guy would ever go to such lengths to save these chats unless it has got some meaning for him.” Aniya said sitting close to me.

“I was crazy after Doritos.” I told no one in particular, “he used to bring me those. B… But I stopped liking those. Now I can’t bear the sight of it.”

“Yeah,” I heard Eve beside me, “Just like I started hating mayonnaise. I can’t eat at a restaurant whenever

I see a sandwich on the menu.

”

When the blast happened, Evelyne was out looking for mayonnaise for her special sandwich recipe.

“That’s why I never fell in love.” Aniya clicked her tongue, “I love food more than any man.” Despite so many tensions, Aniya’s analogy brought a smile to my face.

“You know what, Aniya?” Eve sat up straight, “You are a prick!” She threw some sand on Aniya’s legs.

“We are not carrying any other decent clothing, Eve. And let me remind you we are not booked in a hotel. So, you better don’t dirty my legs. They are se*xy and if a handsome hunk will pass by, he will think … Oui. Stop it, Eve!”

Aniya raised herself on her elbows.

Suddenly there was a shadow hovering over us, “Excuse me… Ashley?” Asked a male voice.

We raised our faces to look at him, but he was standing just in front of the scorching sun. Whoever he was, had a distinguished height and he knew my name.

“Yes?” I placed my hand on my forehead to block the sun, “Who is this?”

“Holy cow!” I heard Aniya whisper, “He is wow!” She breathed and I had to bump her with my elbow to make her stay quiet.

“Oh, you have forgotten me so soon, Ashley. This is where I saved you from the snake bite.”

Frowning to myself, I stood up and tried to have a clear view of the man, “Shit! Marwick!”

I didn’t know why, but despite being Sarah’s brother I could not stop myself from hugging him. He was not even my friend.

He looked gorgeous in an open button–down shirt with navy blue shorts. Wearing those dark glasses was only adding more style to his personality.

“Thank God! Otherwise, I thought I needed to sing a song to remind you about me.” He said good- naturedly and circled his arm around me.

My gaze fell on my friends whose jaws were dropped open. That drool on their faces could not be missed though.

“Umm. Marwick. They are my friends. She is Aniya. And meet Evelyne.” I introduced them. They exchanged hi and hellos and Aniya quickly extended her hand for a handshake.

“Nice meeting you girls.” He shook Aniya’s hand and then his arm was back around me, “Why you were laying here like gypsies? Is there a problem?”

“Yeah.” I hooked my thumbs in the pockets of my jeans, “I was here for my project work and my friends accompanied me.”

“Really? Which project are you doing? I might hire you for my brand–new head office in the future.”

“Ahan. Sure.” I closed one eye, “I was here for … the umm eh… Deluca cottage.” I chuckled and felt his smile faltering a little.

“You got to be kidding.”

“No,” Aniya spoke for the first time, “She is serious. By the way who are you exactly?” She seemed very interested in Marwick. He was an intelligent man, I didn’t think he must have missed the way she was running her gaze on his taut muscular body.

A little confused about how to introduce Marwick to my friends, I put in a little effort, “He is Marwick. He helped me once when I was bitten by a snake in Arguli.”

“How are you people planning to go back?” He asked and placed back his glasses on his nose.

“We have our car with us.” By now Aniya and Eve were sensible enough to walk away giving us some

“It’s good to see you, little one. I wish we could spend some more time together.” The way he said it, it felt strange. Like he was yearning for my company yet at the same time it was not at all creepy.

“Or you can send your friends and we can go back together in my car.” I threw a glance towards my friends who seemed to be teasing each other.

“So,” he said taking a sip from his disposable cup, “what are your plans after you are done with your degree?”
