Spark Of Love (On-Hold)

Chapter 2: Same Village

WINTER'S POINT OF VIEW

When I woke up, it is already 8:00 A.M., but I do not care because today is Saturday.

After leaving my room, I went to the dining hall for a meal.

After I ate my breakfast, I changed to jogging clothes. I am about to go out when one of our maids blocked my way.

"What do you want?" I asked, but it seemed like she heard nothing, so I didn't get a response from her that made me angry. "Tell me, Yaya, what do you want," I repeated.

"K-Kasi po si M-Master Jerome pinapatawag po kayo eh," our maid said while stuttering. "May pagu-usapan daw po kayo," she added.

She said something else, but I didn't hear it because I went to my dad's office. When I arrived in front of dad's office, I saw him looking in the distance and his face seemed in trouble.

"What do you want dad?" I said to him.

"I wonder what will dad say to me."

He suddenly went back to reality. "Anak come here," he told me, and I came closer. "Winter, our business is failing," he added. It shocked me when Dad said those words because I know that he's good at running our businesses.

"Don't worry, Dad, I will fix this mess," I said seriously.

"How will you fix it?" he asked.

"I will go to our bar on Friday," I replied. "Just please dad, trust me this time."

"Okay Win, please... just fix this mess," dad said as he diverted his gaze away from me.

After I left dad's office, I went outside to go jogging. As I was jogging, I saw Flinn with a new male companion that I think her new boyfriend.

I hope that she will not love him as much as he did for Marco because I don't want to see any of my genuine friends get hurt.

I approach them with a smile on my face. "Good morning, Flinn. Who's this guy?" I pointed at the guy that's next to her.

"Uh... him? That's Rye Kade, my childhood friend, and my new boyfriend," Flinn said shyly.

"Um... Can I talk to Rye? If that is okay to you, Flinn."

"Sure why not! Rye, I will wait for you here." She sat down on the bench.

While we're walking, nobody's talking between us. When I'm sure that Flinn would not hear us, I stopped that made Rye stopped as well.

"Rye, please be honest. Do you really love my friend Flinn?" I asked him.

"Yes. I love your friend and I will take the risk just for her to be safe," he said sincerely as he looked at the girl sitting on the bench. "Why?"

"I just want to make sure if my friend won't get hurt again because I don't want to see my friend crying just for a guy who hurt her. I don't want that."

"Don't worry, I won't let that happen again to Flinn. I promise that I will take care of her, and I also promise that I will protect her even if it cost my life." I saw a smile on his face.

"I will keep your promise. Despite all that happened to her life, I am happy that you are here for her to make her happy and to protect her. Thank you, Rye!" I almost cried after I said those words to him.

Before I can cry, I invited him to go back to Flinn, and he just nodded his head.

When we got to Flinn's place, I embraced her and whispered, "I am happy for you, Flinn!"
