Stepping onto the boat not knowing what I will find is scary. My anxiety is horrible and the driver couldn't go any slower
"So, do you have family on the island?" He asked
"No, just visiting" I replied
"Oh, it is known to be family oriented island." He said
"I see, well maybe I'll take my family here" I replied
"How many kids?" He asked
"4" I replied
"Wow, your husband and you must never get sleep" he said with a chuckle
"I definitely don't" I replied
2 hours later the boat docked, I told him to wait here since I wouldn't be gone for too long hopefully.
I stepped off the boat, grabbing my map and started walking around. It wasn't a big island but walking will take a while.
The island was filled with trees, birds and chickens running around. There were people who gave me weird looks but I don't care.
I kept following the coordinates and passed by multiple houses, people playing outside or in their garden.
Continuing passing through, I stumbled upon a kid who kicked the soccer ball to me. I kicked it back and he scurried off to his other friends. I continued walking, asking a local for help
"Excuse me, do you know a guy name Matthew?" I asked
"Yes, he is a very well known guy. Are you looking for him?" She asked
"Yes, I am" I replied.
"Ok, just follow down between these houses, then turn left and once you pass the trash can you'll turn right and soon find the house. It's honestly the nicest one here" she said
"Ok, thank you" I replied
I followed her trail, every step I took to get closer to what I don't know what to expect. I took a right after the trash can and continued walking and seeing the nicest house. She was right, it was the nicest house on the island.
A kid ran outside, I hid behind the tree to not be seen. The kid looked like he was maybe 5. I watched him kick the soccer ball around near a net and soon another body came out, it was a woman. I'm assuming it's the mother.
Watching her play with the kid reminded me of what my kids and I do, or when I did. It was cute, seeing them enjoy their time, being able to spend time together wishing I did more of that with my kids.
I've neglected my kids, not being the best of me. I could have spent more time with the kids, playing soccer, playing basketball, doing anything but instead I was stuck in my office or in the city for work.
"Matthew" the little boy said. I peeked behind the tree to see who the little boy is talking to.
The moment you know when your drowning is you can't swim up. Knowing that the more you fight the worse it is. You slowly let go, knowing this is the end. Although you think there might be some hope, in reality there isn't. You will drown and drown until the end knowing there is no hope.
The man who I once said I love you. The man who saved me from relapsing. The man who I miss every single day. The man I have 4 kids with. The man who I met at the club. The man who saved me from an abusive relationship. The man who bought a house for me. The man who went to my fashion shows. The man who helped me through multiple deaths. The man who stood up to his parents for me. The man who showed me endless of love
The man who I held while on his death bed, begging for him to come back.
Only for him to stand there, kissing another women. He pulled apart and picked up the little boy who was playing soccer
"Play some soccer" the boy said
"We gotta eat some food first" Stefan replied
"Come on, please?" He begged. I wanted Stefan to see me, to see he got caught but the pain I've been through the past years just to see him again.
"Come on bud" Stefan said
"Please" the little kid said. I moved away from the tree to be seen
"Yeah Stefan, go play some soccer" I said looking straight at him making contact at him. His eyes widen, mouth gaped. He was in shock and knowing he got caught
"Who's that?" The woman asked
"Cherie" he said loud enough for me to hear
