It is a weekend. And the beach is coming. Yes. I have decided to smell some fresh air, so I went with my friend on the beach night out. Craig didn't come since they need to attend a family reunion. He wants me to come but I'm not yet ready to meet his family. I've already met his parents once, they're very kind. As long as Craig is happy, that was what they said.
"Hey Dara, glad you come. Where's Craig?" Kylie asked.
"He can't come.. Family reunion." I said. I sat on the bench, it was dusk. And the beach is awesome.
"Alright, suit yourself there. I'll go check out who's arriving." Kylie said. She is hyper, well it's her thing. The party, night outs, and boys.
"Have some refreshment, it's in the bucket." She called out. I did not bother to answer.
My phone signaling that I have a message.
"Hello mam, what are you up to this weekend?" Jiyong texted.
"I'm just watching tv." I lied. I don't like to tell him where I am. I am not the talkative type. It makes me exhausted. I grab a can of coke and walked to the shore. I took off my flip flops because I like the feeling when the sand touch my feet. I wore shorts that go up to my mid-thigh and a loose T-shirt. The wind blows my hair and kissed my skin. Ding! My phone.
"Interesting hubby," Jiyong replied. I can feel the sarcasm.
"Why, what hubbies interest you anyway? You don't like watching tv.?" I asked.
"Only news and sports." He replied.
"Oh. That's good. Updating current events. And boys always like sports." I laughed. "So what are you doing now?" I asked.
"I'm here at the beach." He replied faster.
"Oh really, well then, enjoy. I think I'm going to sleep." She lied. Walking back to the cottage where Kylie and her friends waiting.
"Is that so, alright. Maybe I'll call you later?" He sounds like asking.
"Sure." She replied.

"Hey Dara, meet my friends". Kylie comes up to me dragging me to the cottage, she introduced me to them. Most of them, I don't know but some are meet in acquaintances.
"Where is Jiyong.?" Kylie asks Jess. My mind activates, not sure if it was the same Jiyong I knew.
"Here." A voice comes up behind. I turned abruptly, our eyes meet. It was him. Damn, I was caught. He also seems surprised.
"Dara?" He slowly walked to my side. "You said..-".
"You two know each other?" Cut off by Kylie.
"Yeah, we were officemates." I was the one who answered recovering from mini shocked.
"Oh well, if that's the case I won't introduce you two any further let's eat some and drink BIG." Hyper Kylie is hyper.

"Enjoying the show?" Jiyong whispered to me. One of Kylie's friend put up loud music which is enjoyed by everyone except me. I'm not used to this partying style. Especially the very loud music. I rolled my eyes on him. He captured my wrist and drag me to the shore away from the noise. I slowly compelled. I feel the alcohol in my system now. I kind of feel dizzy.
"Let us talk here." He said. I can smell the beer in his breath since his face almost touches my face. Alcohol affects him already. But I think he still can maneuver.
"Thanks for bringing me here, it's so stuffy there." I said while giggling.
"Yeah, i can see it. So..  watching tv huh... He smirks."
"Ah yeah so sorry about that, I don't like to tell everyone where I am going." I giggled. I can't stop giggling, heck.
"Well, I'm glad you're here," he said in a serious tone. I got nervous.
"Is this okay with your wife, you going out like this?" I asked seriously.
He sighed. "Why not? She doesn't care. In fact, I don't even know if she's at home now." He said.
"How about your kids." I asked. It must be the alcohol but I want to dig deeper now about him and his wife.
"They're at my parents' house now, it is my day off of babysitting. " He smiled. The smexy gummy smile that I like.

We are dancing on the shore, with our tipsy mind. We decided to set aside our worries and just absorb the moments. He captures my waist and pulls me close to him and we continue to dance in our own music. I feel sleepy because of the alcohol I consumed. His shoulder is broad and hard. I feel safer than ever before. I hate this feeling but I can't deny it. I don't have the strength to push him.

Then darkness swallows me.
