"Hey! ... What are you doing?" ask Casey, curious.
"Casey...! Look over there!" said Lionel.
Casey finally sat down, and turned to see in which direction Lionel pointed, then saw Aaron and Steve, who seemed to walk together closer towards Casey.
Not just those two guys.
Oscar and Julie are also seen following Aaron and Steve.
Casey pulled up a thin cloth, which was used as an outer coating of the bikini, which he had removed.
"Have you finished applying sunblock, on my back?" ask Casey.
"Ugh? ... Little more!" sahut Lionel, then continued to rub the back of Casey, with a little sunscreen.
"Hi!" Greeting voices from Aaron, Steve and Oscar, sounded almost simultaneously.
"You wanna play catch?" asked Aaron, who was holding a volleyball, while staring at Casey.
"Yes" said Lionel.
While Casey, just nodded in agreement, then stood up from the mat, and tied the upholstery on the abdomen, until it closed up to his knees.
After a while they played, one by one of the men there, were seen taking off the t-shirts they wore, showing off the shape of each body that looked fit.
Casey, who was bored, then chose to stop playing first.
Oscar, who did the same, sat down on the sand beside Casey, watching their other games there.
"Steve," Oscar said.
"Ugh?" Casey did not understand what Oscar was talking about.
"Steve will be the winner, if they enter the contest," said Oscar, turning to Casey for a moment, then looking back at the game in front of him.
"He's the most handsome. His body is also the tallest, and his body shape is the best. I didn't expect that my performance would be defeated by my cousin" continued Oscar.
Oscar's words, which sounded like he was grumbling, only made Casey want to laugh at him. "Pffit...!"
"May I know why you have to wear it?" tanya Oscar, referring to the upholstery used by Casey.
At first, Casey hesitates to tell Oscar the reason for covering the lower abdomen up to his knee.
But in the end, Casey then shifted the thin cloth, and showed his thigh, which contained a considerable scar.
"My thigh was broken, when I got into an accident with my car. So this, it's a surgical scar" Casey said.
Oscar was wide-eyed, and looked attentive, an elongated scar that was more than an inch old, on one of Casey's thighs.
"Your feet are good, you don't have to cover them up" Oscar said, putting on a serious look.
"But if you are not confident with the scar, you can get a tattoo there" continued Oscar.
"Yeah, right!" sahut Casey, carelessly, with a big smile, and almost laughed, then pulled back the cloth, so that he could cover his legs again.
"Casey!"
Steve's sudden voice was already near Casey and Oscar, enough to shock Casey, and hurriedly raised his gaze.
"Can I see it?" steve asked, pointing at Casey's feet with his eye movements.
Apparently, even though they were playing, Steve and Aaron, still pay attention to Casey's movements there.
So that when Casey showed his feet to Oscar, not only did Oscar see him, but Steve and Aaron might also see him, even if only at a glance.
That's why, until recently, Aaron and Steve, were then seen crouching in front of Casey.
Although feeling a little hesitant, Casey just want to shift the cloth, until the scar can be seen by Steve and Aaron.
"Oh, gosh!" aaron said, appearing to put on a guilty look, then lowered his head.
But at that moment, there was a laughing Julie voice nearby, so Casey looked at Julie, who was already standing behind Aaron.
As if Julie was feeling very happy to see the scar on Casey's thigh, Julie seemed to laugh in satisfaction, saying, saying,
Julie doesn't seem to be a woman who has sympathy for others, so she can say that, which only makes Casey really upset about it.
However, before Casey defended himself, Aaron stood up and turned around, and immediately rebuked Julie, with his tone rising.
"Julie! ... What's wrong with you?! Are you crazy?"
Aaron looked so furious, that his body trembled, as if he was going to hit Julie right then and there.
"It's okay" said Casey, who didn't want to cause a scene.
"Oscar! ... About, what kind of picture tattoos are good?" casey asked, just to distract her from her upset feelings for Julie.
"You're gonna get a tattoo?" asked Lionel, who seemed to be in disbelief at Casey's words.
"Why do you want to get a tattoo? What's to cover that scar?" steve asked, almost at the same time as Lionel.
Casey nodded her head.
"No need," said Steve, staring fixedly at Casey. "Your feet still look beautiful."
"Truly I said, didn't I?" oscar said, chiming. "You don't have to cover it up. Your legs are still so much nicer than Miss Julie's."
"What did you say?" Julie sounds inflamed.
"It's true what Oscar said! I can't even be aroused, even if you're naked" Aaron said, in a trembling voice.
All eyes are on Aaron and Julie.
And at once, Julie looked like she was about to cry, and then left quickly, almost half running.
Apparently, Aaron's anger towards Julie really peaked, so Aaron could say that, without caring about the other people around him.
After Julie's departure, Aaron seemed to regret his words, until he lowered his head, clenching both hands.
"I think you better apologize to Julie" Casey said, breaking the silence.
"What's that because?" Aaron seemed not to hear Casey's words, and instead shifted the conversation, pointing towards Casey's feet, with his eye movements.
Casey did not immediately answer Aaron's question.
"It's because of the scar, that you don't want to meet with—" Aaron suddenly stopped his words for a moment, before he then continued to say,
"... According to Steve, you don't want to meet him either. Is it because you don't want us to see it? ... Oh, gosh! It's all my fault."
"I—" Casey did not have time to finish his sentence, because Aaron who was crouching nearby, immediately interjected by saying,, saying,
"I'm really sorry to you. I know that I will never be able to make amends for you....
... But I will try my best to do whatever you want. Just say!"
"Maybe you can call off your engagement" Lionel chirped, sounding carefree, before Casey responded to Aaron's words.
For a while, all who were there then simply fell silent.
In fact, Oscar, who usually speaks softly, does not dare to comment anything, although he seems very surprised and confused, hearing the words of Aaron and Lionel.
With a curious look, Oscar only looked at Aaron, Lionel and Casey alternately.
Meanwhile, Lionel who looked still unsatisfied, then continued saying,
"We are all adults, and should be able to be more open-minded. I can confirm that Casey didn't intend to hurt any of you....
... If you love Casey—"
"Lionels!" Casey interrupts Lionel, so Lionel can stop talking.
"What do you mean...?" Aaron also makes his voice, almost simultaneously with Casey.
As if understanding what Aaron was trying to ask, Lionel then answered Aaron's question, saying,
"Yes! ... Casey's memory is back, so is her love for you. So right now, Casey loves you both at the same time."
