      Awesome. That's what this place is. After settling down, Eliza and I went swimming, then we got coconut milk and took pictures. We even snuck costumes when we forgot to bring our purses. We danced Hawaiian and even tried to speak spanish. It's been awesome. And not to mention the cute guys. Betty had started flirting with a waiter once when we all went to eat but he snuck his number on my table. That made Betty fume and I heard about her saying 'cut..... Hair.....' and that made me insecure and went out to see Eliza sighing looking at the amazing stars.

"Can I join?" I asked her. She turned and smiled.

"Sure!!" She said. I sat beside her and she sighed. I looked at her.

"What happened?" I asked her.

"What..... Nothing." She replied packing her hair in a ponytail.

"You know you can tell me anything right?" I asked her. She nod and sighed.

"Fine, i talked to you about Ian right!" She said. I nod.

"Yeah!!" I said urging her to go on.

"I broke up with Ian." She said quietly. I sighed and nod.

"Oh Eliza!!" I said and put my hands round her shoulders, she put her head on my shoulders and started sobbing.

"Ian and I were best friends before all this. And we started dating since high school." She said.

"What the..... Heck!!" I said.

"Yeah. After break ups upon break ups, we got back together because we realized we loved each other so much. But .......... Something changed, Ian changed, he wasn't as playful, romantic, sweet guy anymore. We became busy for each other. Our relationship because sour. And, there was..... His secretary, Miriam. I never said anything cause....."

"You don't have too...."

"Nope, I got it." She said sniffing as she wiped her tears with her thumb and put her knees under her chin, her hands wrapped on her ankle.

"Before coming, I went to give him a surprise visit because I wanted to give him his Christmas gift before I leave. I didn't see his secretary so..... I just entered the office, and I uhmm..... I saw Him. And Miriam, making out. I was broken. And what hurt me more was that he continued, he didn't even explain. I've been over it. But his friend, Pen called me and told me he only got back together with me at our last year of college because his parents wanted him to be with one of their business partners!!" She said. Ouch.

"What the hell is his number? He has to listen to some insults!!" I heard a voice. We turned to see Betty. She came and sat at Eliza's left. I was at her right.

"Why didn't you tell me this? Oh my God!!" Betty said.

"Well, I don't know. I just wanted to keep it in!!" Eliza said.

"Awn Eliza, you know you can tell us anything." I said. She smiled

"It would've been easier if you guys were in good terms!!" Eliza said.

"Well....."

"We're on good terms!!" Betty said. I looked at her.

"I just want to have a new year without all this ruckus. Apparently, everyone's now friends with her!!" Betty said. My eyes were watery.
