Chapter 390: Feeling Despaired
Talia, who was busy sending the baby turtles their way, didn’t forget to look at her Fred under the moonshine. His pale skin glowed in the beautiful light from the silver moon. He must have set his hair with hair wax but still some hairs were loose and floated in the gentle breeze.
Ah, he’s so nice to look at. And how cute is he trying to help me with the baby turtles! I’m glad he waited for me for a decade.
When she looked at him after a while, she saw his face illuminated with the light from his phone screen. It was then she saw the most adorable smile on his face as he looked in her direction.
Is he talking about me to someone else?
She went on about her business while being conscious of him. She could understand why most people liked beaches and water. The scent of the salty water mixed with the scent of flowers blooming in the night, the sound of the crashing waves, the man of your heart beside you... It’s paradise!
She thought he called him and turned to look at him with a smile. Her heart was filled with happiness and it overflowed as a constant smile in her porcelain face.
"Ah!"
She saw him clutching his head and kneeling on the sand and the smile in her face vanished and got replaced by panic.
"Fred!" she ran towards him. The skirt of her dress was long, designed to be worn with heels. With her wearing sandals and stepping on the loose sand, she stepped on the dress and fell on her knees. By instinct she broke her fall using her palms and without wasting time she got up immediately and ran to him.
"Fred, what is it?" she called for him but he wasn’t responding to her. She hugged him around his shoulders. "Fred... what’s wrong with you...? Fred. Talk to me, please... NO!"
Her throat closed and her heart that was beating erratically stopped when he fell limply.
