The Day I Kissed An Older Man

"Maybe not today. I have a ton of stuff to do at home, and who knows when I'll be able to hit the sack? I can't even think about hanging out after class," Athena muttered, her head buried in her workbook. Despite her heavy workload, she did not seem to complain.

"Ah, that's such a shame! The sunset we saw last time was so breathtaking. I'd love to see it again," Tracey exclaimed.

Athena grinned. "We grew up by the sea, and we've seen so many sunrises and sunsets. Don't you get bored?"

Tracey rushed to her side. "Never! The ocean is such a magical place. Seeing the sunrise and sunset at sea is a whole entire experience. It's so different from seeing it anywhere else. If I could, I'd spend my whole life by the seaside. What about you? Are you bored of it?"

Athena set down her pen and gazed into the distance. "I want to explore further."

Tracey frowned. "Does that mean you're going to leave me and the ocean behind? The ocean is like our second mother."

Children raised by the sea often treated the sea as their second mother. After all, the sea had nurtured generations of kids.

Athena shook her head and smiled. "Why would I? I just want to venture out and explore the land. Don't you think it's boring to stay in this fishing village forever?"

"As long as you're with me, I'll never be bored," Tracey declared firmly.

When Tracey saw her friend's dilemma, she took matters into her own hands and approached him first.

"Hello, do you speak the local language?" she asked.

"Of course! I grew up here even though my father is a foreigner. What's your name?" he asked.

"I'm Tracey, and this is my best friend, Athena," Tracey introduced.

Everyone thought that it was just another typical love story between young teenagers, perhaps with a little dash of romantic rivalry mixed in. Little did they know that their expectations would be shattered completely as the plot unfolded.
