Vincent and Jamie and Catarina: When Freshiedency Reaches Its End

El Nido Day 1: The First Two Islands and The Glorious Cave, II

Dibuluan Island, another island south off the coast of Lagen, is an island known for its pearly white and fine sand beaches. It is also owned by the hotel, and the management there serves up a great buffet, which is what everyone was going to have for lunch.

It was half past 12 when they arrived at the island. After docking the outrigger boats, they all headed straight to the buffet area. Some of them rushed to get their food, while others secured fifteen spots for them.

Meanwhile, in a nearby table, Catarina, Marjolina, Sukram, Neon, and Silver were watching them.

"Just look at them," Neon remarked, "Rushing to the buffet table like pigs."

"Is that the first thing you see?" Sukram replied, "I see Vincent and Jamie sitting by each other, but they're not as lively as before."

"From what I've seen," Silver added, "They're trying to make amends."

Catarina smiled, saying, "Let them. Jamie won't accept it just yet. We need to make sure she is at her most vulnerable."

"Not unless her emotions change quickly," Marjolina replied, "She's no ordinary kid, remember?"

"I guess so," Catarina replied, "She's only the bait. Vincent is our priority."

"But in a few days' time, he will become a normal person again...

...which makes him more exposed!" Neon remarked, his spirit eyes widening with excitement.

"He's right! That way, he will not have any bodyguards to defend him anymore!" Catarina exclaimed, "Neon, you're such a genius!" She stood up to her full height and held Neon by the cheeks as he blushed.

"Hate to break up the scene, but how?" Silver asked.

"That, we can talk later once we get back to the room," Marjolina replied.

...

Among the fifteen, Vincent, Jamie, and Philomella had the fastest metabolisms; they were already at their fourth plate, but their handsome and pretty forms did not change.

However, after the fourth plate, Jamie felt uneasy. Breeders can store a lot of waste in their bladders and recta, as much volume as their matrical (womb) complex can hold (as long as it doesn't​ affect their birth/oviposition canal. However, she had forgotten to relieve herself of that burden that very morning, and now it had taken its toll on both her human and insect stomachs. Of course, the first one to notice was Vincent.

"You okay?" he asked.

"I really don't like to hear from you right now," Jamie replied. One of her hands was holding her human stomach, while the other was massaging her insect-queen half abdomen.

"You definitely need to go, Jamie," Vincent replied.

"I said I don't want to hear from you right now," the breeder replied, "And FYI, I'm fine."

"Then suit yourself," Vincent replied, rolling his eyes, and jerking his head in such a way that his blonde hair bounced. He looked towards the sea and added, "You could try holding it until we get back to the room or you could look for the nearest bathroom."

"He's right, you know," Cee replied.

"The nearest bathroom for breeders is right behind this area. Look left and you'll see a very clear sign," Jay replied.

Without saying a word of thanks, Jamie sped off to the washroom. Ceejay, in the meantime, took a deep breath and said, "In two days time, we will be going to an island to spend the whole day there. There are places where we need to kayak in order to reach them."
