Chapter 4

Patty looked at his face. He was so handsome! His chocolate eyes were so deep but cold as well. It was his eyes that caught her attention. It was as if his eyes were lifeless.

Patty noticed that the man was slightly stunned as he stared at her. Then he shook his head and smirked and then walked away. Patty was left staring at his figure. She then heaved a deep sigh and then tried to calm herself. She adjusted herself and then went to her favorite fast food chain.

“He is handsome alright, but still a snob," she said.

“WOW! ANG ganda, ”Patty ejaculated uncontrollably as her boat approached El Corazon island. He was holding the hat he was wearing when the strong wind blew.

He heard the excitement from some tourists with him on the boat. They are even taking pictures. He, on the other hand, is beating his chest. He was suddenly nervous.

She was finally here. It took her this long but she finally did it.

Patty inhaled the fresh air. She could smell the salt water. The air here was different compared to the air in Manila.

The turquoise colored water looked so inviting. Blue, green, and almost white mix in water. The water shines because of the light coming from the sun.

Patty did not know what she did right in her life for her to deserve this… for her to be able to have the second chance to see this scenery.

“Hi. Do you want to take a picture of me while you still see the whole island? ”

Patty looked at the speaker. "If it's okay…"

Smiling, he took his cellphone. "It's okay, no. I count to three. ” When he returned his cellphone, he held out his palm in front of him. "I'm Kyrie."

"I'm Patty."

"Are you a tourist too?"

“Yeah. You too? ”

“Yep. Our first time here in Cebu. We should only go to Oslob. Eh, `yes, someone said that it is also good here in El Corazon. It looks like Maldives. ”

"I saw that on the internet."

“Many said that El Corazon is really beautiful. May falls, caves, sandbars ... I want to explore the island! ”

He introduced him to his friends and when they got off at the port of El Corazon they even exchanged contact numbers. Patty felt good. She was able to gain new friends because of this journey.

Maybe, this journey would be good for her.

Patty looked for someone to pick her up. The hotel package he took included the hotel transfer. On the Coastline he will continue. This is the beach-front resort hotel owned by the Del Valle.

"Good morning," Patty greeted the old man holding a placard with his name on it.

“Good morning too, Miss Patty. I am Berto, your guide. Is this all you use? ”

“Oh, it's me, Mang Berto. Then Patty, don't miss it. I will sound old, ”he joked causing the old man to laugh.
