"Why are there only one blanket in this stupid fucking house!" Stephan snapped, searching the room if there are any extra bed sheets but nope. We almost searched the whole house but we haven't seen a single thing that can make us sleep in separate beds unless the couch that is very free.

"Don't look at me, idiot. I am not the one who brought you here." I fussed, walking past him then got on the bed then got into the covers "Good night." I yawned. "There is a couch there near the window. You can take that since it's cleaner than the one over there" I said, pointing at the other couch who seems like just a little move then it's broken.

"Oh, fuck..." I heard him mumbled then I just lay my head down on the pillow and closed my eyes so I can finally sleep because I can't really handle his him half naked. So, it's better if I sleep ahead of him.

Then I heard his footsteps and the bed sinked down a little and I felt his body heat behind him, causing me to turn around and glare at him. "What are you doing here? The couch is right there, idiot."

"Tsk, and you really do expect me to sleep in that small couch? You're the idiot one here." He scoffed then lay down facing away from me "If you don't want to sleep with me then you are free to leave and sleep on the couch."

My mouth gape opened. How dare he try to tell me to sleep on the couch? This is really annoying and so immature of him! There is no freaking way I will sleep there on the couch facing and he window. I guess I have no more choice but choose the option where I am not gonna die.

So I just lay back down, taking all of the blanket with me and moving away a little. The breeze here is so cold that is enough to freeze my butt and my suitcase doesn't contain a single jacket. I don't want to wear the lingeries because I am gonna die in hypothermia and in embarrassment. So in the end, I ended up wearing the dresses that I wore the tropical styled dress.

But he became stubborn and also grab the blanket to his side, leaving nothing for me. I grabbed the sides of it then pulled them to me, this time leaving nothing for Stephan.

"What is your problem?" He asked, giving me his signature frown.

"There is no problem, pal" I said, sarcastically. "Why don't you just give me my blanket?"

"Your blanket? Tsk, you're so twisted, eh?" He scoffed then grabbing the blanket then spread it for the both of us to share and exhaled. "There...now can you shut up already? God, your voice is so annoying" he said huskily before laying back on the bed. "So good night and be a good doll."

I rolled my eyes and faced the other side, tugging my hands underneath my pillow then turned off the lamp so I can sleep peacefully.

Oh, I just prayed to God that I will be able to survive this. Let me sleep, and rest my mind. I really can't accept the fact that I am stranded in an island with the man I hated the most.

We survived the first day and I'm not looking forward for the next days with him. Oh maybe if our parents came back to get us, my body might already be floating on the ocean, lifeless.

....

Its been already two days since we got here and so far, the only thing that I can say about it is just horrible.

How matter what Stephan and I do, we just ended up fighting, arguing, cursing and annoying each other to our contents. I guess, both of us always wants to win when where fighting something. We really don't get along no matter we do. I try to be nice already and adjust to his stinking attitude but but he just hate this too much and don't want to gain anything.

Just like last night before we eat our dinner that he prepared, I was telling him to put all the canned foods in the fridge and he said no. But me, being me, I continued pushing him to put them inside because I don't want them to expire so early but then he fought saying that they are canned meaning they won't expire. Simple things like that.

I also remember, he was trying to turn the tv on but I keep on blocking his view because they are all porn shows and I an freaking panicking when he saw them. So, in the end, I threw the remote on the sea that even triggers his anger more.

"Hey, don't we have other foods than those?" I asked, softly and pointing at the cans on the top shelf.

"Nope. But we do have peanut butter and some breads." He replied, not looking at me but concentrating on building the pipes of the sink. It actually broke this morning.

"How are we gonna live with just those foods? We need nutrients or vitamins." I complained.

Stephan rolled his eyes "Go outside and stand under the sun. You might get some vitamins there." He said sarcastically.

What an idiot. He always talks like I am so ignorant at the things around me. "This is a tropical island, Stephan. We can get some fruits our there!" I told him, placing a hand on my waist.

He stopped on what he was doing "Don't you go to the forest alone, Doll. Its dangerous out there so just stay here. You don't know what animals are in there ." He ordered me and looking so serious but heck, that doesn't surprise me.

I am still going to look without him or not. He is just scared of the possible dangers that are in that forest. But I'm actually sure that our parents won't bring us to an island that is dangerous.

So right now, I tried to keep my distance from him to avoid more arguments and while he was inside, I took my chance to leave and decided to go deep the jungle. Maybe I'll go see some fresh fruits that I can eat besides canned foods and peanut butters.

Honestly, this island is really big. The jungle is not that typical jungle that you see in movies like where cannibals are in. This one is actually quite neat and arranged. There strange pathway, beautifully arranged grasses, flowers and many more.

I actually even saw a small pond not too far from where I began. Its so pretty and cute because of it's size and shape.

Then on the side, a huge rock stood there with rare beautiful flowers that I have never seen in my entire life. It's color is so bright and it shapes just like a bell.

I picked something up and all of a sudden, I jumped on my spot when a monkey came out from one of the trees.

Holy crap. I'm died.

"H-hey boy..." I stuttered, nervously. Shit, what if he attacks me and I die here alone. Because I'm sure Stephan wouldn't look for me even if I got lost cause he really doesn't care.

Oh, crap.

This monkey is a capuchin from what I read in books. A talented monkey that appears in many movies. Yeah, just like Dexter in the Night at the Museum.

The monkey climbed down closer to me and he's making this soft sound but I moved away not want to get close to a wild monkey because it might just slap me on the face. He is so small and I know monkeys like this are super smart but there is something in his hand making me frown in confusion.

"Hey, what you got there, buddy? Sorry if I disturb you" I whispered and he just stopped in front of me and handed me what he had in his hand.

It's a flower.

My mouth opened in surprise. This little creature just gave me a flower and I thought he is gonna kill me!

"Thanks, buddy." I told him and then he just ran off, climbing back to the trees doing his monkey sound. Whoa, this one is much better than Stephan.

But this monkey makes me really confused. Why did he gave me that flower?

Strange but that is so sweet of him. But then I continued walking through the woods and I saw him again, sitting on my way. "Um...what are you trying to do, little one? I'm going to get some fruits for me and my friend to eat." Once I said that, he run off once again and don't have a clue in what he is trying to say.

Great, now I am talking to a monkey. How crazy does that sound. Stephan would surely laugh at when he sees me like this. Like a complete idiot.

But then, for the third time, the monkey reappeared, with so many small fruits in his tiny hands.

Cereza

These fruits are tropical and they actually look like a cherry. "Are these for me?" I asked the little guy and he made some sounds. "What other fruits do you have here?"

Then he started walking off again but this time I followed him. He was looking so excited right now. Time time, he pointed the huge three with orange fruits.

Papaya

He couldn't pick it up on his own because it's too big for him so I stepped on the rock and reached out to grab it. Oh God, it's too tall and I'm so short!

Just a little more...

Little more...

Then there! I pulled the papaya from it's tree hardly because it's so hard then when I go it off, I fell forward to the ground in a thud and it just hurts so badly.

"Ow" I mumbled, wincing at the pain I felt on my elbows and my knees.

Jeez, the monkey quickly get to me and I stood up, patting his head "Thank you so much, buddy." Now I have something to eat other than those stupid canned foods. I quickly arranged my tube dress then ran back to the house. If it wasn't for the strange pathway, I should have lost my way.

I had the fruits in my arms as I rushed back with a huge smile on my face.

I am so sick of the foods in the house so this will really make me happy.

When I reached the house, I saw Stephan outside and somehow, he looks like he is looking for something.

"Hey, Stephan! Look what I found!" I just shouted from a distance as I walk towards him, a grin formed in my face. "Look! I saw so many fruits and there is a huge pond there too~"

"What were you even thinking?!" Stephan snapped, giving her a worried look as he rushed to her "I was looking for you and got worried that you might get lost in the woods! And fuck, why are your knees bleeding and have some scratches on your arms?" He quickly kneeled in front of me to see my scratch and examined it.

Oh, I didn't noticed that bleeding.

But wait, he's worried?

That's a strange word coming out from him.

"Damn it, what did you do?" He ran his fingers through his hair.

"I just went to grab some fruits." I chuckled, to avoid the tension in the air. "You want some?"

Stephan sigh and placed my hand on my bag then pushed me inside the house. "Hey, what are you doing?" I asked.

But he remained emotionless and stopped when we reached the living room "Sit."

"I don't take orders~"

"Damn it, just fucking sit down, Ariana! For once just fucking listen to me!" He snapped, with his teeth clenched, his chest rising up and down as he spoke.

My mouth immediately shuts up and sit down on the couch. He quickly took the fruits I have in my arms and place them on a basket on the kitchen counter. I hate to think or assume things but, is Stephan really did got worried about me when he noticed me went inside the forest? What is he so scared about in this place?

I didn't encounter any wild animals that are dangerous except for the Capuchin who even helped me gather the fruits.

Stephan came back to me, holding a clean towel, a bowl of water and a first aid kit.. He kneeled down on one knee and a little harshly pulled me closer to him making my knee face him. He damp the towel on the water and squeezed before he gently press it on my bleeding one.

I winced a little as I felt a little sting. "Be a little gentle, idiot."

But Stephan didn't listened and keep on cleaning the wound not gently but not too harshly. But his touch is hard enough for me to wince. "Ouch, I said be gentle! It still strings alright."

"If you keep on blabbing like that, I am gonna put alcohol here so it will sting even harder." He retorted to me with a frown. "Stupid doll, I am already doing this for it won't hurt but you keep on complaining."

Okay, talk more. Tell me more how an idiot I am, Stephan.

"Good thing there is an first aid kit in this stupid house." Stephan said, focused on what he was doing. "What are you even doing in that jungle?" He asked, now putting some antiseptic on my wounds.

"I just want to get some fruits." I replied, softly.

"Then you could have just told me so I can help you." He murmured also softly.

I gave him a narrowed look, "Help me, really?"

"Um...nope." He replied, quickly now wrapping a bandage on my knee before he stood up in front of me, leaned on the wall and crossed his arms. "How did you get the fruits? Its hard to find these" he asked, taking the bowl where he put them.

"I know this sounds crazy but someone helped me. " I confessed, scratching the back of my head.

His eyebrows touches in confusion "Someone helped you?" He tilted his head.

"Yep. I met a capuchin out there, he even gave me this flower..." I bring out the flower from my pocket then showed it to him "And he helped me find those fruits." I told him, hoping that he will believe me but he was just staring at me like I grew another head. "But if you don't want to believe me then don't. I'm not forcing you so stop staring at me like I'm an idiot"

"No." He stopped me from standing up "The capuchin you are talking about...is Papaya." He replied, a smile forming from his face.

"Wait, you know him?" I startled.

"Of course." He grinned but then in an instance, his facial expression changed and his handsome smile disappeared and changed into something sad. "I'm glad he is still alive."

"Why? How did you know him?" I asked, again.

But he didn't reply instead, he stood up then took the first aid kit and the bowl of water. "That is none of your business already. Right now, what we have to do is think on how we survive here and how we get out from this fucking island." He hissed, turning away to leave.

His actions and face expression made me confused. Why won't he tell me because I am just asking a simple question.

And Stephan seems to be so happy when he heard that a capuchin helped me. It is really strange that he looks so hurt and don't even want to tell me. Is this had something to do with his past?

Hm, I really got curious in that one.

And I'm not gonna give up until I have answers.
