Past and Present

22

I don't know about you but I feel like 22~

--------------

I wasn't able to get more information from Amelia about Lando's ex yesterday since we were conveniently interrupted by Lando. He probably sensed that I was asking Amelia about his ex because for some reason after chilling by the pool and dinner last night, he wasn't talking to me as much as I am expecting — despite having a certain agreement with him. He suddenly seemed distant.

And I decided to leave it at that. Because for whatever reason it is, Lando doesn't want me to know anything about his ex and it just makes me more curious about his past relationship with Margaux. In fact, it was so tense between us last night that he didn't complained when I placed some pillows in between us on the bed.

Today, we both woke up early since we will be going to the city center for lunch then the beach club until night time; and unfortunately it is still quiet between us. I decided to wear my blue two-piece bikini under a white cotton coordinates; I folded the sleeves to 3/4s and decided to keep it unbuttoned. I am fixing my hair when Lando steps inside the bathroom to brush his teeth; I watch him through the mirror doing his stuff while I put some sunscreen on my face and neck. Afterwards, I try to put on the necklace he gave me for my birthday which I fail miserably since I can't get the clasp on; frustrated, Lando noticed me and he immediately gargles the toothpaste from his mouth and wiped his face before speaking.

"Turn around, i'll help you."

I looked at him and handed him the necklace before turning around, I watch him again through the mirror; Lando's wearing a navy blue swim shorts and a white long sleeve cotton button downs -- much like the top I am currently wearing and look he's wearing his necklace too. If I wasn't in the right mind, I would probably think we're a couple right now.

But nope. Just because I don't wanna risk it and Lando's sending me mixed signals.

After helping me with the necklace, I turned around and grabbed my sunscreen. Lando understood and closed his eyes as he waits for me to put sunscreen on his face.

"So are you going to tell me why you don't want me to know anything about your ex?" I asked, "and don't play dumb with me, I know that's why you're not speaking with me since yesterday when you noticed me speaking with Amelia." I added as I pat the sunscreen softly on his face.

Lando opens his eyes and looked at me, "because everything about my ex is very irrelevant now. I don't understand why you're so fixated on learning about her." He scoffed.

I looked at him a little taken aback, "uhh maybe because she's the reason why I haven't spoken nor seen you for over a year? Why can't you just tell me something about her?"

"Because I can't, Sky." He immediately answered and I can see that he's getting frustrated. He sighs loudly and starts walking out of the bathroom once he realized I'm done putting sunscreen on him. I followed him out, growing equally frustrated as well.

"Why can't you? Maybe you still love her?" I declared a little too loud as I watch him pick from the hats he brought.

Lando sighed again and looked at me, "That's the problem, I got into a relationship with someone I don't love in the first place!" Lando caught me off guarded when he suddenly shouted at me and I was confused by what he said.

"Someone you don't love? What?" I scoffed, "Lando you didn't talk to me for one year because of her and you'll tell me you don't love her all those time?!" I answered back.
