Stains In Love
Trying to Entertain Stella

Warm sunlight infiltrates into the room through the small cracks of the windows. Sensing the light slowly beginning to tease her deep sleep, Stella rolled her body to the side of the bed. While yawning widely, Stella took a sitting position.

Stella can't remember the last time she slept so soundly after learning about Garry and Feby's betrayal. To be sure, it had been a long time since he had slept as well as last night. After crying and letting out a tightness in her chest, Stella's mind was much lighter. The burden that he had been carrying on his own on his shoulders seemed to decrease. That's why he slept well last night.

Gts ... Gts ... Gts ....

Stella frowned. Who knocks on the door early in the morning? That's what's on his mind right now. Stella stood up. With a staggering step, Stella walked towards the door.

When she opened the door, Stella was surprised and confused to find an innkeeper carrying trays filled with food.

“Good morning, Miss Stella. Sorry, if I disturb your sleep. I'm assigned to deliver breakfast for you,” the waiter said with a friendly smile.

Stella smiled awkwardly. “Sorry, aren't you in the wrong room? I have not ordered any room service,” reply Stella. He was confused because he had not ordered breakfast. In fact, he just woke up.

“This is an order from the man staying in the next room, Miss,” the waiter replied explaining. “He ordered this breakfast for you.”

“Ah, so?” Stella received the tray containing the food. “Well then, thank you,” he said.

After the maid left, Stella looked to the right and left. He wondered who had sent him breakfast. But, in retrospect, he should be grateful since he did not have to bother to the inn cafeteria for breakfast.

Entering her room, Stella put the tray she brought to the table. At first, he felt no appetite. But, after seeing the food ordered was her favorite food, Stella was finally tempted to eat it.

When she was about to pick up the spoon, Stella's eyes accidentally saw a paper on the tray. He took the paper and read the writing there.

‘Don't cry anymore. A beautiful day is waiting for you. D.’

Stella smiled, then put the letter on the table. She had promised herself that last night would be her last cry for Garry. Starting today, she will start a new life and enjoy her vacation.

“Do you want to take jetski?” davin asked Stella who was walking next to him.

“I can't drive it,” replied Stella briefly.

“Just relax, there's me,” reply Davin. The man glanced at Stella. Seeing Stella who was just silent, he took the initiative to pull the woman's hand. “Come!”

Inevitably, Stella follows Davin to the dock. There, there's a coast guard officer who rents jetski. After using the buoys, they climbed on the jetski.

“Already,” replied Stella briefly.

Realizing that Stella was holding onto his shoulder, Davin rolled her eyeballs. But, she did not protest because she realized that approaching Stella would not be easy considering that Stella had just been hurt by a man.

Davin started the jetski engine, then drove the jetski around the island. Stella closed her eyes, enjoying the wind that blew her hair, as well as the seawater that soaked her feet.

Although she has not really accepted Davin's presence, Stella does not regret allowing Davin to accompany her. At least, he did not feel lonely and pitiful anymore. Davin was always looking for a way to cheer her up and Stella was very grateful for that.

“Do you like this?” ask Davin.

“Yes, it was exciting also boarding jetski,” reply Stella.

Davin chuckles. He increased the speed of the jetski, making Stella hit him on the shoulder in surprise and asked him to slow the pace of jetski.

“Do you intend to kill me?!” shouting Stella.

Davin laughed loudly. “I love to see you upset, that's it,” reply prank.

The days passed. Stella really enjoyed her vacation without any sadness on her face. The woman goes about her every activity with no recollection of Garry and Feby's betrayal at all.

He has no idea what happened on Garry's wedding day after he exposed Garry and Feby's rot. He also doesn't know if Garry and Feby are finally married or not. He accidentally did not activate his phone and avoided news of the day.

“Hey, why are you daydreaming?” ask Davin.

Stella lifted her head, turning towards the balcony of Davin's room. The balcony of their room is right next to each other so it's no wonder that Davin can see Stella daydreaming.

“I'm sleepy,” replied Stella briefly.

“Sweetest. Though I want to take you to the bonfire tonight,” Davin said. Davin always accompanies Stella through her routine on the island even though Stella often ignores him.

“There is a bonfire party?”

“Yes, do you want to come?”
