Chapter 46: Chapter 46

SIMOUNE

I woke up around 7am in the morning and my two friends were still asleep. I got up to wash my face and brush my teeth. It's also nice to see that even though I'm from big heartbreak, I have friends who are ready to help me get up again, it's fun to think about but I can't say to myself that I'm totally moving on because I know to myself that I haven't really, maybe I am entertaining myself so that I won't remember that I'm sad, because if I drown myself in sadness, I'm also miserable, maybe I'll always remember what daddy told me that I have to fight for myself

After I finished washing my face and brushing my teeth, I went straight to my cabinet to prepare the clothes that I will bring to Batanes later. I hope this vacation will be happy, it's been a long time since we went on a staycation, the last time we had a vacation mommy is still here so I hope we will be happy.

I hope that the next staycation is out of the country. It's very exciting, if ever. While I was fixing my clothes, Bruce woke up and immediately came to me

"It's still early? You really woke up early" Bruce said

"Yes, I'm going to organize the clothes I'll bring for the staycation. By the way, thanks for the carrot cake! Say thanks to auntie" I said

"You're welcome! The swelling on your face subsided very quickly, huh?" Bruce said

"Yes, I took the medicine prescribed by the doctor and I hope I will be better in the next few days" I said

“You'll be okay! Because we will help you!” Bruce said

"I'm very lucky because I'm with you and I have a friend like you" I said

"We are also lucky to have a friend like you! Because uncle also loves us, he will free us a ticket just for the staycation and all of that is because he loves you very much" Bruce said

"You just want to wander in Batanes!" I said

We laughed together HAHAHAH, I really missed my friends! Lucy woke up immediately after I finished preparing for clothes to bring

"What a morning!" Lucy said

"I have already prepared the clothes that I will bring tonight! So later, get permission from aunt and uncle and get ready what to wear!" I said

"I know mommy will let me go,because I'm not bringing anything but myself, and mommy knows you, it's impossible for her not to let me go!" Lucy said

"Hey! Even if you say that! It's better that they know where you are so they don't worry about you" I said

After I put the clothes I chose in the suitcase, we immediately went downstairs, we saw Nanny Lily already cooking breakfast

“Oh! You woke up early! How are you Simoune? Does the swelling on your face still hurt?" Nanny Lily asked

"My face is fine, I still took medicine even though I didn't eat" I said

"I thought it wouldn't heal, but I think it did because the swelling on your face has subsided" Nanny Lily said

"It's just right so I can take pictures again!" I said

"You can take pictures of that again, especially on a staycation!" Lucy said

"Oh come on and let's eat!" Nanny Lily said approaching us to eat and sit

We sat down and ate breakfast, while we were eating Daddy suddenly came out

"Oh? Are you awake? That's right because our flight later is at 6pm, so we need to leave around 3pm" Daddy said while stretching his body

"It's a good thing I have my things ready, daddy" I said

"What about you two?" Daddy asked

"Not yet uncle, after we eat we'll go home so we can get permission from our parents and also to say goodbye to them and get ready what to wear and especially our things!" Lucy said

"Oh go ahead! Be careful! Just get it delivered here so we can take it to the airport at the same time" Daddy said

"Alright uncle" Lucy said

Lucy and Bruce hurried to eat while Daddy sat down to start eating. After Lucy and Bruce finished eating, they immediately said goodbye to daddy

"Uncle, we're going to leave first, we'll be back here at about 2pm so we're going to leave right now" Lucy said

"Oh go ahead! Be careful! Say goodbye to your parents properly" Daddy said

They immediately got out and left, while we were eating, daddy immediately asked me

"Is it better than last time? Do you still feel pain? If there is anything, tell me. Okay?“ Daddy said. I know he's worried about me.

"There is still pain daddy, but that's the way it is, isn't it? Being okay is not immediate, there is a proper process" I said

"Yes, now you'll wake up in pain, you won't be able to explain the pain, but as time goes by, you'll realize that there's no pain anymore, and when you feel that, it means you already really moved on" Daddy said

"If that is so? What about daddy if I've really moved on but I'm afraid to fall in love again?" I asked

"You know, I understand you're afraid, but you can't always be afraid, and there will come a time and a person who will love you more than you love that person! And when that time comes, you will think of nothing else but to be with that person forever" Daddy said

"Is there really something set for me?" I asked

"I'm sure that it has! You just have to wait for the right time and the right person!” Daddy said while tapping my shoulder

"I hope I can find him daddy, don't you? Why didn't you find the right person for you?” I asked

"It's a different story with me, Simoune, you're still young so no matter what time and place you can find the one for you, me? I already have a you so I need to find my daughter's future more than finding the right person for me" Daddy said

I hugged daddy, it's true that daddy loves me so much but I didn't pay attention to that before.

"Thank you daddy, for cheering me up and putting me as your 1st priority!" I said

"It's nothing! Because even if the world turns upside down, I'm still your father!" Daddy said

After we finished eating, I sat in the living room while Daddy was taking out the things he was going to bring for the staycation, of course Nanny Lily was also doing her things so that later she's ready. I just sat on the sofa and tried to remember what Daddy said to me so that the pain I was feeling would be less, I don't know but the pain still hurts even though I try to be okay there is still a stone buried in my chest, there is disappointment in me, there are still questions in me that are still unanswered so the pain is painful

How long will I be hurt?! How long will I endure this pain?

LUCY

When I got home, I immediately went up to my room and immediately got ready the clothes I wanted to wear it is shocking because uncle suddenly invited the staycation but it's okay for Simoune, I know she's still sad about what happened to her with Vince, but I know she'll be okay too. I also don't understand the pain because I'm not in her situation, I just know that she feels pain. I still feel sorry for why she has to experience this. Maybe there is a reason?? Do not know?? But Mommy and I also put in a lot of effort just for her favorite carbonara!! I know she liked it and she looked really good last night.

I'm glad to see her smile again!! After I finished getting ready, I also got ready the clothes that I will use to leave tonight at 2pm, when I finished getting ready, I went downstairs and saw Mommy in the kitchen

"Oh? You're here I didn't notice you? How are you, is Simoune okay? Did she eat the carbonara we made?" Mommy asked

"Yes, mommy, it's even exhausted, I feel that Simoune is better now compared to the past few days, mommy. I'm glad to see her smile again" I said

"It's good that she ate and smiled again, is her face still swollen? You said last time that her face was swollen?” Mommy said

"Her face is fine, the swelling has subsided" I said

"It's good to know, I hope Simoune will be okay because she's going to school and she's still stressed" Mommy said

"That will be okay, Simoune just needs guidance and help to move on little by little. By the way, mommy, I'm going to say something to you and i need your permission" I said

"What is that?" Mommy asked

"Uncle invited us to take a vacation in Batanes and we are leaving at 2pm tonight. I'm with Bruce, Nanny Lily, uncle and of course Simoune" I said

"It's your trick that you don't like!" Mommy said

"Mommy, it's all of a sudden because Simoune is not okay and since Simoune and uncle are okay about Simoune's mommy, they have become closer now so there was a sudden staycation and of course Bruce and I were invited" I said

“Hmmmm….. Is that so? All right, as long as you update me, and make sure you don't forget my souvenir, okay?" Mommy said

"Yes mommy! I will never forget that, even the one I will buy from Daddy but mommy tells daddy that I'm coming!" I said

"Oh, I'll take care of it, it will be okay as long as you have an old man with you and since Simoune's father is there, I know it will be okay!" Mommy said

"Thank you mom!!!" I said

I hugged Mommy because I was super happy that she agreed! Did I say she would agree! Since it was still quite early, I thought of lying on the sofa and watching a movie. It's only 9am so maybe I'll eat here before I leave

—--

ShockS!!! I took a nap and it's 11am!! It's only a few hours and we're leaving, so I quickly went up to my room and took a shower. I said it! I shouldn't have laid down earlier, then I fell asleep. After I finished taking a shower, I immediately went to the kitchen to eat lunch

"Oh I cooked your favorite dish because I know you will miss it in Batanes!" Mommy said

"Mommy! We only have a few days!" I said

"That's why you eat quickly and what time it is!" Mommy said

"Yes" I said

I ate a lot because I knew we would be waiting for a long time later, after I ate I immediately called Bruce

“Bruce!? Did that say goodbye? Are you ready?” I said

“Sure, how about you?" Bruce asked

"Yes, I'm ready, you can come here!" I said

"Alright, I'll go now" Bruce said

Bruce ended the call and I went up to get my things to take down, just a few minutes ago I heard Bruce honking outside the house so I immediately said goodbye to Mommy

"Mommy we're leaving!!" I said lively

"Be careful! Update us with your daddy!!!” Mommy said

I hugged mommy and then I went out and got in the car

"You're carrying a lot of stuff! By the way, who will deliver us?" I said

"I don't know, I'll just leave my car in to Simoune's house. I told daddy and mommy that too so there is no problem about that" Bruce said

"Is that so? Let's go!” I said

Bruce drove while I was on the phone

"Good thing the posts about Simoune were deleted!" I said

"Didn't I say I would find a way to do that" Bruce said

"How?" I asked

"I asked my friend for help and then I deleted it so no one would post anymore, because he said he can delete everything but he can't control those who post about Simoune" Bruce said

"So does that mean that if someone posts, Simoune can still see it?" I asked

"Yes it is" Bruce said

Why are there people spreading such things! Real cameras! Envious people who have nothing to do in life!!

...

Before they left, Simoune asked her father where her phone was, but her father don't have any choice, so he gave Simoune's phone. Simoune's father is still thinking about the posts about her, so all Simoune's father asks is that she not see it

When Bruce and Lucy arrived at Simoune's house, they were immediately taken to the airport. Simoune's daddy called a driver to take them and the vehicle used was the van, fortunately they has three cars and their Van is one and they don't have to squeeze because they fit in the van.

When they arrived at the airport, they waited for three hours to board the plane, so before they boarded, Simoune's father invited them to eat at a fancy restaurant. Simoune hasn't been able to go to restaurants for a long time, so it's better that they eat first

You can see the joy on their faces because they are heading to Batanes. When they boarded the plane, they fell asleep and woke up when they arrived in Batanes

When they got down and went to the hotel, they immediately regained sleep for the next day, they had energy. It's already 9pm so it's better for them to go to bed first

They will be together in the same room. The room is complete set; with bedroom, living room, kitchen and balcony. There are three rooms, so Bruce thought of sleeping on the sofa while Nanny Lily was in one room and Lucy and Simoune were in the other and the remaining room was for Simoune's father. They slept peacefully so that their energy is full for tomorrow

Can Simoune still see the posts about her? Or did the posts about her stop altogether?
