— sitting by the sand, feet dug deep into it. the cold sea breeze hits my face as the sounds of waves clashing onto one another was heard; the source of light only coming from the twinkling stars. i closed my eyes, and suddenly, i think of my future with the special someone i wish to call "the one"



Your POV

My eyes opened so suddenly, and I find myself not being able to get any more sleep after that. And so as I gave up trying to sleep, I then went out of the tent, whilst simultaneously trying not to wake up my tent mates who were all still in deep sleep. Ugh, I'm so jealous.

As soon as I opened the zipper, the cold, harsh wind greeted me, I sighed, exiting the tent entirely, completely standing up once I did so. I looked at my pair of footwear, contemplating if I should still wear it or not. And after a minute or so of deciding, I decided to go barefoot instead, feeling my toes dig into the somewhat firm type of sand.

The night was still young, it was still midnight, and I wonder why my stupid self decides to wake up and not sleep anymore. Defeated, I went inside the gazebo, where chairs were scattered all around, table placed in different edges of the freestanding roofed structure.

I sat on one of the chairs and began to take out my phone as I went straight to this reading app I've been using for only a few months, though now completely addicted to it. I continued the book I have been reading since yesterday. The Rain In España, University Series 1.

Shout out to 4reuminct !

There, I spent the time just like that, sitting on the chair as I often laughed, cried, freaked out, panicked, just your typical gal reactions whenever they're so immersed into what they're reading:

"My god Kalix, give Luna a break. Those testosterone of yours are truly strong though, I gotta agree with that" I silently said to myself, different thoughts running through my head

Sigh, but despite the difficulties, they still found their way back together. Would I be able to find such a man who'd never give up as well?


~A Few Hours Later~



It was around five o'clock in the morning when I finished reading the first university series. The skies were now a mixed color of blue, orange, pink and purple. I didn't have anything else to do, so I went by the shore and played with the sand.

It took some time, but slowly, one by one, my family began to each wake up. I can only nod at them in acknowledgement for I know they were still too sleepy to talk, even just a word.

Once again, I turned towards the beach, seeing the waves colliding onto one another, some reaching the shores with loud splashes as it began to be high tide. The sun was beautifully peeking by the horizon, and slowly, it began to shine.

But still, the cold wind won, it dominated and continued to blow onto me. Though I had a jacket, I shivered and hugged myself instead, seeking for warmth with clenched teeth and shaky legs.

Thoughts once again filled my mind. When I come back here, hopefully, in the near future, I hope to bring my special someone with me. That someone would have their arm wrapped around me, and then, I'd lean onto them for warmth and for comfort. Then, we'd watch the sunrise together.

Some of my family members began to take pictures of it, while some had taken out a few cooking equipment as well as ingredients to cook and eat later on. I once again went inside the gazebo and sat beside dad:

"Y/N, how was your sleep, dear?" My father asks as I chuckle, shaking my head

"I wasn't able to sleep well, Dad. I had only slept for about thirty minutes or so, then after that, I just went out here and red some story" I explained to him as he nods, standing up and starting the fire

The men in the family began to cook, their women looking at them in pure love and admiration. A thought struck to me once again. Will I also look like that when I see him cooking for me and our children? Would my eyes also twinkle and would my face light up as much?

I felt a sinking feeling inside me as I ate my meal. It felt empty inside, I felt empty inside; it was a feeling of loneliness, of sadness and of envy. How long did we have to wait to finally meet one another? I thought. And because of that, I announced that I will walk by the shore to keep me distracted and such. Barefooted with glasses on, I began my short journey.

As I was walking, the wind blew for the nth time, and my hair went all over me: the face, the eyes, the mouth. I tried to remove the strands and so I couldn't see what was in front of me. After minutes, I finally gave up and decided to sit down for a few moments before going back.

The feeling of cold air rushing within me, as well as the sun blinding me with its bright radiance, I close my eyes, different scenarios beginning to fill up my head as my heart fluttered at each of them.

Suddenly, though, I begin to see a young man, probably the same age as I am, or a few years older than me. I was holding hands with him, I was laughing with him, I was talking to him, hugging him, kissing him, and saying my vows to him.

It felt surreal, it felt like a dream coming true, it felt like he was everything I wished for in a man, he was my perfect lad:

"Mark..." Unconsciously, I whispered, the name registering as reality struck deep

I opened my eyes after that, not believing what I've just seen. I laughed at myself as well as my imaginations. Dammit, The Rain In España really got me, didn't it? I thought, shaking my head as I now stood up and began to walk back to our camping site.

While I did so, once again, a thought hit me. Whoever that man might be, I just hope we'll meet, in the right year, the right month, the right day, the right time and the right place. And within the starry nights, the harsh winds and tidal waves, I wish nothing but to be with him.
