Chapter 10 - Chapter Ten(Isla's Confusion)

Another day came, and Isla hoped it would be better than the previous one, where she tasted bitterness. She doesn't know what the upcoming days hold for her. She has one wish: for her father to stay by her side, and for death not to separate them. She got up from her bed and arranged it to go straight to him and check on him. She didn't find him in his room, so she hurried down the stairs as if someone was chasing her. She was surprised to see her father preparing breakfast hastily and eating it quickly, eager to go diving. She was afraid he would risk his life and pleaded with him, saying:

"Father, don't go to the sea. You are not fully recovered yet. I hope you reconsider the idea of diving."

He reassured her, saying, "Don't worry, my daughter. I am fine, and I will only get better in the depths of the sea."

James left and took his diving equipment to embrace the waves of the sea. His spirit longed for it, and he only found solace in there. But Isla was not reassured. She appeared tense and confused, fearing that something bad might happen to her father. She ate some food, drank her cup of coffee, but her mind was scattered, unable to focus, and she couldn't put an end to her father's recklessness.

She stood up, trying to dispel those concerns, and decided to go to her friend Iris, hoping she could forget some of the pain that had started to find its way into her heart.

While swimming with Iris, she caught sight of Rocky barking in the distance. She stopped, her face turned pale with panic. She didn't know what happened until his continuous barking ceased. She hurried towards him to find her father lying on the beach, breathing slowly. 

Without waiting, she tried to help him but failed. However, her determination and her insistence on keeping her father alive instilled strength in her. It enabled her to lift him and assist him until she brought him to his bed.

She didn't know what happened to her father, and was confused. No one else was there with her. Finally, her thoughts turned to searching the file and calling for the ones who came to them the last time.
