Ep. 5 It's Me, Not Him

"Ugghh it so hooot." Julie

"Babe come here I'll put lotion in your back." Raymond.

"Yayy, thanks babe." Julie said.

..Hmph, are they only coming here to flirt? Did they even know that I am here? Did they even know that there is a single man over here?.. Mark mumbled.

"Hey guys I'll go get you a drink what do you want?" Raymond ask as he is about to stand up.

"Pineapple" both Julie and Mark said in chorus.

"I see. You're bestfriends for nothing." Raymond said as he chuckles.

There is silence between Julie and Mark.

"Julie, how are you with Raymond?" Mark asked to break the silence.

"We're good. I'm happy right now." Julie said

..Happy? Are you really happy? But why can I see the sadness in your eyes?..

"Julie if you need something just call me and I'll be there 😊." Mark said as he pat her head.

"Am I interrupting something?" Raymond ask as he distributed the juices.

"No, I'll go to sea." Julie said and leaves.

"Take care." Mark and Raymond said in chorus as they watch her leave.

"Hey man, don't you try to hurt my girl. She is precious to me." Mark

"What are you talking about? I love her." Raymond.

"Oh really? Love her? Then what did I heard at the library? You said she is just like your clothes?" Mark said while gritting his teeth.

"Come on dude, it's true anyway. What about it? Do you plan to tell her? Do you think she will believe you? Haha this is ridiculous. Did you ever think what will happen to your friendship if you ever tried to butt in with our relationship? What about--"

Raymond di not finish what he was saying when Mark's fist land on his face. He is about to smack Mark back when somebody shouted.

"Help, help. Someone is drowning!"

"Oh my God. Oh my God. Help her!"

"Somebody help the girl!"

Mark rushes to the sea when he saw Julie drowning. And thankfully he was able to save her.

"Raymond." Julie mumbled.

"Hey babe I'm here." Raymond said as he tried to take Julie from Mark's arms.

"Thank you for saving me." Julie said in a weak voice and suddenly fainted.

Raymond look at Mark and smirked. Mark felt disappointed and angry at the same time. Raymond leave while carrying Julie in his arm to go to the room where they stayed.

Mark touches his chest.

..What is this? Why do I feel pain? 😔 Am I hurt because Julie did not recognize me as her savior or am I hurt because I will never get to acknowledge her as my girlfriend? 😔😔 This is frustrating..

Mark go to his room. He have a separate room from the two. He fixed his belongings and leave the resort.

When he got home he texted Julie.

..Jul's I'm sorry I go home first without your knowledge. There is something I need to do.. Sending to Juls ❤

..It's okay Mark. Raymond is taking care of me. I am thankful because he saved me. Thanks for your time.. From Juls ❤

..Come on girl, it's me who saved you 😔 Didn't you recognize me? Did Raymond not tell you?..

Mark cover his eyes with his blanket and fallen asleep.
