B#6 – Cabo P.O.V.
We are walking holding hands. We just ignored the heaviness of our bags. I said to her that I should carry her bag but she insisted not to. She sways our hands while we walk. She has a huge smile on her face.
You can really know that she’s very happy. Every time she looks at me, she’s always smiling. I can’t help it but to smile ate her too. This is the happiest day of my life.
“Katherine,” I said.
She looks at me, curiously. Her stare is making me nervous. I don’t know why.
“What?” she asked.
“Uh, you look…beautiful,” I said. She smiles.
“Oh, stop it you,” she said then slaps me in the right arm.
“Ouch,” I said.
“Is this the one that got hit?” she asked.
“No, it’s the other one,” I answered.
“Then why did you say ‘ouch?’” she asked.
“Well, your slap is really hard. It can almost kill a person,” I said then laugh.
“Oh, very funny,” she said.
“Oh, c’mon, it’s just a joke,” I said.
“I know right,” she said.
She walks very fast. I almost run just to follow her. I think she’s mad. Real mad.
“Hey, wait up!” I shouted.
She just disappeared in the forest when she makes a turn. I stop at the turn then scratch my head. I can see a tall building nearby. I also see Katherine.
“Hey! Katherine!” I shouted.
As I about to follow her, I hear footsteps. It stopped me from following her. I look behind me but there was no one. I turn my back and follow her. I hear another footstep. I look around but there is no sign of anybody.
“Who’s there?” I asked.
I take out my gun. I hear another footstep. Now it startled me. I look around again.
“Katherine?” I asked.
I hear a gunshot and it hits me at the leg. I fell to the ground and screamed. I try to stand up. There’s another gunshot and it hits me at the back. I fell to the ground and vomit blood. I look at the shooter, he has a ragged hair, a blood stain in his uniform, a machine gun, he’s just plain scary.
“So, you have a lover’s quarrel?” he asked.
“What the?” I said. He smiles an evil smile.
“Say goodbye now,” he said.
I stand up and charge towards him. I punch him right in the face and he fell to the ground. I kick his organ and his face. He screamed. He punches my wound in the leg and I fall to the ground.
“Ah!” I screamed.
He stands up and points his gun. He smiles again. I stand up and kick his abdomen.
“Ugh,” he said.
I send him flying and he hit a tree. He barely stands up. I kick his face again. He falls to the ground. He vomits blood. I look around again to find Katherine. I turn my back to him.
G#3 – Cabrera P.O.V.
I saw the whole thing. Jed is really strong. He turns his back and look around. What is he looking for? I see the guy standing up. He’s a bit wobbly and he points his gun towards Jed.
“Oh no,” I muttered to myself.
I take out my sword and went out to the bush. I screamed. They both look at me. I plug my sword in his abdomen.
“You have to go through me first, asshole,” I said.
I slice the guy from his chest to his brain. His body falls to the ground beside me. He’s looking at me. He’s really surprised. I drop my sword and run towards him. He open his arms and I accept it. We hug each other.
“Sorry, I won’t do it ever again,” I said.
I can’t help myself, so I cry. He looks me at the face. We slowly put our faces together and kiss each other.

We pull off from our kiss. He gets his bag and went to the body. He take out his handgun. He looks at me and I look back.
“What is that for?” I asked.
“My gun doesn’t have any ammo. Just in case,” he answered.
I nodded. I went to his side and we walk together. He puts his arm in my shoulder and I lean my head to his body. I can hear his heartbeat. This makes me relax.
“What did you say when we’re at the seashore?” I asked.
“Do you really wanna know?” he asked.
“Of course,” I answered.
“Fine, this is what I had said,” he said.
He leans over to my face. He kisses me once again and I kiss him back. He pulls off and he went to my ear.
“I still love you,” he said.
I cry again and hug him tightly. He hugs me back. Why does it hurt so much? Why did I leave him in the first place? Why?
