High School: Way to Forever

Chapter 34: Sunset!

After 1 hour of swimming, they sat on the sand. "Elder sister, can we make a sandcastle?" innocently asked Scott.

"Sure, Umm... but I don't how to make one."

"Don't worry just do as I say and we will be able to make it."

They both started making a sandcastle. Loud laughter can be heard.

"Keep your hand here and dig a hole."

"Like this."

"Yes!"

It looked as if Scott was master and Anna being a disciple following his instructions.

A passerby thought they were a family of three. A child along with his parents as his facial expression was quite similar to Alex.

Seeing such a sight, Alex thought of taking a picture of these two.

He took out the camera from Scott's bag and clicked some candid pictures of Anna. These were for him. He will keep them.

"ALEX!!! Come here, help us!!!"

"You guys make, I will bring something for you guys. Sunset is going to be soon."

"Bring something from my backpack."

"Sure."

....

"Elder sister, why you love the beach so much?" suddenly asked Scott.

Hearing this, Anna's hand stopped.

"Did I asked the wrong question?" Scott thought that this question made the Elder sister uncomfortable.

Anna smiled brightly and said,

"Once, someone promised me that we will visit the beach together. But that person isn't anymore but I still wanted to," said Anna.

"What do you love the most about beaches?"

"Um.... well, I will say I love sunset the most. You?"

"Mee too, elder sister." Scott was surprised, both of them loved sunset.

"Wow! Give me a high five!"

"Elder sister you know, brother also loved beaches and mountains. But after some time he hated them

I was shocked when he told me that he wanted to come to the beach."

Anna raised her eyes and asked, "Why?"

"Because....."

He was interrupted by Alex as the food was coming his way.

They soon changed into normal clothes.

It was sunset time and they started taking a walk in the sand, barefoot.

It was like scenery, Scott being in the middle, holding one hand of Anna and one of Alex. It looked like a family visit.

They all were facing towards the sea, when Anna suddenly said, "Thank you, Alex!"

He turned and saw Anna's face glowing up as Sunset's ray was falling on her face.

"We have many things to do. This was the first," said Alex.

"You once asked me if I'm alone. Yes, I was. But not anymore. I think I can explore more."

Silence.

Three of them enjoyed the sunset along with the cold breeze that was blowing from the sea.

They soon hit the road. Scott was tired so he fell asleep as soon as they sat in the car.

No one spoke on the ride. But there was no awkward silence. They both were comfortable with this.

Anna turned around and saw Scott was asleep.

"I wanted to say goodbye to him," whispered Anna.

"Don't worry, you can meet him any other day. Let him sleep." said Alex.

"O-okay. Drive safe."

"Hmm."

"Good Night!"

After saying this she ran into her house with her bag pack

...

Inside her home, she saw her mother talking to someone.

She quietly went upstairs to her room. Her heart was beating fast. She doesn't know what magic Alex had done on her.

She dried her hair with a hairdryer.

Afterward, she went down and saw that her mother was preparing dinner.

She went towards her and hugged her from behind.

"Mom.."

"What happened? Why are you being so childish?"

"I don't know. I just felt hugging you."Mother Marrie laughed.

Arranging dinner on the table, she said, "Tomorrow, we will have a visitor. Come home till 5 in the evening."

Hearing this, Anna raised her eyebrows.

"Is it someone from family? Then I'm least interested in interacting with them." Anna clearly stated.

"Yeah, a family member but you won't hate that person and won't be disappointed. Just come home early."

"Is that the same person you were talking with on the phone before?"

But mother Marrie didn't answer. She just said that Anna should be home, early.

"Where are the pictures you clicked?" asked Mother.

"Ahh... Those are with Alena. I will ask her to send me afterward."

"Okay." answered mother Marrie.

Anna lowered her head and started eating dinner.

She had lied to her mother but what else she can do? She can't tell her mother that, she went to the beach with a boy.
