“Delaney, come with me…“ Andrew braked his bicycle in front of me.
“where?” I’m curious.
“…to a beautiful place, and play with a beautiful creature.” said Andrew smiling.
His face was full of joy and peace that I have no skeptic to go with him.
“Outskirt of the city? Rotten apple tree?”
“Nope I take you to another place.”
“Okay”
Soon then we reached a small wooden house; it’s old but nice. Andrew pulled me in and he went straight to open the hind door where I can see scenery of a long glittering beach stretching under the golden shine.
While I was in a coma, Andrew shook my hand. “Come on!”
Since the house was in the hill, we needed to walk down the stair to reach the beach.
He ran to pick up something in the sand and threw it to the sea.
“What is it? What are you doing?” I asked as I ran to him.
“Star fish… hurry up help me; our job is to recur them… Their family are waiting for them; tides cannot take them back as we do.” his voice fused in the sound of tides crashing the shore.
We continued throwing them one by one to the sea and I intently grasped a star fish from Andrew. He chased after me as I ran and smirk. He finally reached me and lifted me up on his back as he whirled around before falling to the ground. We laughed out loud cheerfully watching the stars above us...
“Delaney… I love you” he said as we confronted.
My heart bumped, I was afraid Andrew could hear it “…stupid! Do not tease me. Hey, my clothes are wet now; it’s your fault…what the hell are you throwing me to the sea as if I was a star fish.” I spoke crankily as I stood up.
Andrew scratched his head and said sorry.
“I may have some childhood clothes left in the house, let’s go and check it.”
Andrew handed me a pair of blue pajamas. “Change it and give me your clothes; I will dry it for you.”
After taking a shower and dressing up; I saw a hot bowl of noodle on the desk as I open the bathroom door. Andrew wasn’t in home, I went outside looking for him and I saw he was hanging my clothes near the bonfire. We sat, eat, and talked about this and that.
“Andrew do you miss your mom? I don’t know who are my parents exactly, I have a wish; I must find them, see them even once and called them mom and dad.”
“what… if they already died?” Andrew question shocked me then he continued.
“My mom is in the sky; when I miss her I look at that brightest star and I anticipate she is smiling at me.” he said pointing to the sky.
“Delaney…I have only two nice people in my life. One is my mom and another is you.”
“I don’t neither lie nor tease you… the truth is…I really love you.” he said turning his face to me. I smiled unconsciously but instantly stopped as we stared into each other’s eyes.
“You know, you have a very nice smile. I want it.”
“Take it then.” I smirked
Before I was aware of what happens next, we were lips to lips and then we had that night together.
I woke up in the early morning in an embracing arm of Andrew. I could feel his light breathing on my neck; I felt strange warmth going through me every time we were near and I knew that right then and there I really loved him. I slowly moved away from him leaving Andrew to sleep alone.

“God forgives me…” I closed my eyes and took a deep breath as wind blew my hair.
“Babe, I will cherish you as best as I could.” Andrew said holding my waist.
“This beach is nice.” said I.
