Part 1
Chelsea's on her way to Taro's as usual. For some reason she's been really sick lately. Perhaps the stress of working on the farm, and news of her mother being gravely ill in the city. Chelsea hasn't told anyone on the islands, she feels it's a burden she must face alone. If only she knew how badly it was affecting her health and the people who love her.
Chelsea stepped out of the boat and began walking over to Taro's shop. "Chelsea." she heard someone call out. "Chelsea." She heard again only slightly louder.
She turned her head towards the port. She saw Will with a cute smile, as usual standing at the front porch of his yacht. He waved "good morning, Chelsea."
She began to blush slightly. She dazed away at the water, but she couldn't help but look at him and smile, even though it was a very weak one.
"Umm…morning Will" She said in a very sick and raspy voice.
"Chelsea…are you ok, you haven't sound too well lately." He said.
"No, I'm fine." She reassured him.
"You haven't look so well either, are you ill." he asked in worried tone.
"No, I feel fine." She repeated more firmly.
He gave her a worried gaze. "If your not feeling well…Id would be happy to provide some medicine for y-"
"I don't need your charity!" She said sharply. "Just because I'm a farm girl, that doesn't mean I can't take care of myself." she said bitterly.
"Chelsea, I didn't mean- " He started.
"Money doesn't always fix things." She said coldly.
Will had very embarrassed and hurt face. "Oh, I see, I didn't mean to upset you, I'm sorry for bothering you." he said in a hushed voice.
Will's beautiful sky blue eyes pierced her heart like a dagger, she realized that she had just hurt Will. "Will! I'm sorry that came out all wrong I…" She started, but before she knew it, he already walked off. "I'm so sorry, Will." She whispered under her breath. Her heart felt tired and heavier than it ever felt before. She felt sick to her stomach, and fought the urge to vomit.
I hope you don't hate me now, that was so cruel of me, and you've been nothing but a good friend to me…I really am sorry Will, please forgive me, I haven't quite been myself lately.
She walked over to Taro's door, but before she could enter she was greeted by Lily. "Chelsea!" She called. She ran up to her, and wrapped her arms around her. Her long blond hair getting tangled with Chelsea's brown hair. "Chelsea, I've missed you." She said happily.
Lily is Chelsea's best friend on the island and, they have been for three years. They've always thought of each other as sisters.
Lily rubbed her face into Chelsea's soft hair. She looked around and spotted Will's big boat. She smiled warmly. "I see." She chuckled. Chelsea gave her an faint, gloomy smile, she wasn't feeling so good, and she still feels extremely bad for what she said to Will. Lily put on a worried face almost instantly.
"Huh…Chelsea, what's wrong…" Lily looked closer at her face, and caught glimpse of Chelsea's teary eye's "Chelsea…" She said softly. She didn't say a word.
"Chelsea…are you ok, I didn't want to bring this up, but you haven't been quite yourself lately, some of the others said you've been acting strange lately." "I haven't seen you're real smile for a long time now, and you've been looking so weak and ghostly." She said in a very concerned voice. "Were really worried about you."
"Don't be silly, I'm…" Chelsea smiled.
"Don't try to fool me with that fake smile, if…there's something happening to you, please tell me Chelsea, your scaring me, I don't want you to feel like your alone." she paused. "…Will told me he's been very worried about you as well."
Chelsea's smile vanished.
