"COME ON, Violet. Talk to me, please."

Tila walang narinig na nanatili siyang walang emosyon at naktutok ang mga mata sa malawak na karagatan. She was on the lower deck of the yacht that Harrison himself owned. She was in the cabin when she woke up and when she got outside, she learned that they were in the middle of the vast ocean.

She can see nothing but water and its species and the seagulls. No island on sight and or ships nearby. Tara lost her temper and punched Harrison in the face, again. This time, her fist landed on his right eye. Tinotoo niya ang sinabi kanina na susuntukin ito sa mga mata, ngayon ay nagsisimula nang mangitim ang palibot. He deserved him for being such a jerk. He literally kidnapped her. He drugged her, that's for sure. Marahil ang ipinainom nitong gamot sa kanya ay sleeping pills, ni hindi niya namalayan ang naganap sa kanyang paligid. Ganoon kalalim ang kanyang naging tulog.

Earlier, she commanded Harrison to bring her back home, but he refused no matter how angry she was. Nang mapagtantong hindi talaga ito matitinag ay ibang taktika ang ginamit niya. She ignored him, baka sakaling mainis ito sa kanya at maburyong doon at ibalik siya sa pinanggalingan. Isa pa, ayaw niya itong kausapin dahil hindi pa natutunaw ang inis niya.

Sino bang matinong tao ang matutuwa kung magisnan mo nalang na nasa gitna ka ng dagat? At sila lang dalawa ni Harrison doon. Paano kung may gawin ito sa kanya, at hahayaan niya ito? Isa iyon sa mga ipinapangamba niya. Sinasabi niya sa sariling hindi siya magiging marupok ngunit alam niyang sa tuwing malapit ito ay nawawala siya sa matinong kaisipan.

Itinuon niya ang paningin sa kanyang paa na nakalambitin sa gilid ng yate. Hindi pa masakit sa balata ng araw kaya nanatili siya roon pagkatapos ng agahan nila. Kanina pa sinusubukan ni Harrison na kausapin siya ngunit patuloy siya sa pambabalewala.

Harrison sighed roughly before he sat beside her. "I did what I had to do, okay? I want to be with you, so I did this. It's just you and I here, walang iistorbo sa atin." He sighed for the nth time when he didn't get any response. "Alam kong galit ka, I won't say sorry for bringing you here with me, but I am sorry for drugging you. The water you drink with your meds-"

Hindi na naituloy ni Harrison ang pagpapaliwanag nang itulak niya ito patungo sa tubig. He created a huge splashed when he fell and she did not flinched nor showed concerned. Seconds later, he submerged from the water and yelp as he gasping for air.

"Violet!"

She looked down at him and gave him you deserve it kind of look before standing and use the stairs to the upper deck.

"Won't you gonna help me here?"

Bahala ka sa buhay mo! Harrison knew how to swim. Mas lalong alam nito kung paano sumampa pabalik sa yate.

Sa ibabaw na deck ng yate ay umupo siya sa isang upuan doon at pinuno ng hangin ang baga nang makita na naroon ang kanyang drawing pad at maliliit na canvas, naroon din ang ibang pang gamit sa pagguhit at pagpipinta. "Thank you for the generosity," she muttered with sarcasm.

Kaninang ipakita ni Harrison iyon sa kanya upang may mapaglingan daw siya ay itinapon niya iyon dito. Hindi niya kailangan nang mapaglilibangan, ang kailangan niya ay makauwi.

Sa halip na lalong mayamot ay dinampot niya ang drawing pad at lapis, kapagkuwan ay nagsimulang iguhit ang tanawing kanyang nakikita. Her right hand was trembling so she draw slowly and with the guide of her left.
