We were having a good time in our so called 'proper honeymoon'. I never knew that having someone as a company , going with you wherever you want to go , be or just exist could be so exciting. Especially if that someone is someone you love , and someone you already called as your wife.  I still learn tho how to love her properly , because this is a territory very much strange for me , a peculiar feeling that seemed only for Rosalind.

To be honest i still have fear that sooner or later this feeling will change or worse gone. But when i saw the light coming from her eyes when she stare at me , talked to me , sweet and passionate. This feeling probably add so much more , tightening my chest over and over again. Yet another fear also came , that the one who soon be gone are her feeling towards me.

"Here's your strawberry ice cream.".Rosalind handed me my order as both of us sit on the stool of an ice cream shop. It seems like we were both dating , not that our marriage is forgotten but , we also were never date properly before so it's a good opportunity for us to get to know each other better again. We talked absolutely about everything , i just know now that her favorite color is black . Everything she liked and disliked , i tried not to let it slip away from my mind.

We just got out from the shop , giggling and enjoying our time but then we abruptly stop when we saw a familiar person in front of us.

"Well , what a surprise to see both of you here.". Of course i remember who see is , after all these years i still have the negative opinion about this girl.

"Emilia ?".I glanced at Rosalind , she too seemed surprise to see her former lover suddenly came out of nowhere.

"Hey Rosalind , long time no see.". I saw Emilia smirked , crossing her arms as if she tried to show her dominance. That's right tho , i never asked Rosalind how they both separated , whether it was on good or bad term.

"What are you doing here ?".Rosalind asked i can hear annoyance from her tone.

"Same as yours , vacation of course. What else ?".Emilia chuckled then turned her eyes at me. "Or maybe not really the same."

I didn't say anything , i just stare at her silently not wanting to make any effort to make a conversation with her. Just then i saw another girl suddenly came beside her.

"Oh it's Rosalind.".The girl smiled at Rosalind recognizing her.

"Hey Mackenzie.".Rosalind greet the new girl in cold way. I sensed another bad vibe from this girl too. Rosalind then turned to me to introduce them. "Ehh Ophelia this is my friend from college Mackenzie , and you probably remember ..Emilia."

"Nice to see you again Ophelia.".Emilia said while smiling and checking me out from head to toe. "You changed so much , you got taller now..so cute. ".She said in a childish kind of way , as if i'm still the same age as the last time we met.

"Nice to see you too, Emilia.". I replied , at least i'm doing it in the right kind of way.

"Hey what if we take our little reunion to that place.".Mackenzie suggested pointing to a nearby cafe. "We can sit , drink and talk reminiscing our college life."

"Ahhh..I dont know about that."

"Come on Rosalind , are you not that happy to see an old friend ?".Rosalind then turned to me asking if we should accept her offer or just go back to our hotel.

"It's okay.".I said , tho i'm not fancy the idea but maybe this could be the way for me to discover more about Rosalind's life before we met. Even if that's mean ...her ex girlfriend also involve.

"So , is she your new girlfriend ?".All four of us  already took a seat in the cafe. We have chatted for awhile now , well most of the time i was just listening while exchanging some glares with Emilia. Until Mackenzie asked that question.
