Stuck in an Island with Twelve Beautiful Women-Chapter 388 - 390
The late afternoon sun cast a golden hue across the shoreline as Jude and Lucy approached the edge of the ocean, the weight of their mission palpable in their every step. Jude held the can containing Eva's essence tightly in his hand, his gaze fixed on the distant horizon.
Jude and Lucy were about to go and throw the can in the ocean. As Jude and Lucy prepared to go to the ocean to dispose of the can containing Eva's essence, a sudden interruption came in the form of Scarlett, whose discovery of the can added a new layer of complexity to the situation.
Jude held the can tightly in his hand, a sense of purpose driving him forward, when Scarlett's voice rang out behind him.
"Jude, wait! That can you're holding… it's mine give it back. I found it on the shores a while back. It had these beautiful carvings, like a work of art. I brought it back to the shelter," Scarlett exclaimed, her eyes wide with curiosity.
Jude turned to face Scarlett, his heart sinking as he realized the gravity of the situation. He exchanged a glance with Lucy, silently communicating the need for caution.
"Scarlett, I appreciate your fascination with the can, but I can't give it back," Jude replied, his voice tinged with urgency. "It's... it's important that I dispose of it properly."
Scarlett's brows furrowed in confusion, her curiosity turning into frustration. "Dispose of it? What do you mean?" she pressed, her tone growing more insistent.
Jude hesitated, searching for the right words. "It's... a personal matter, Scarlett. I need to take care of it myself," he explained, his gaze steady despite the turmoil within.
Scarlett's expression hardened, her eyes narrowing with suspicion. "Jude, I've been looking for that can ever since it went missing. You can't just take it away like this, not without at least asking me." she protested, her voice tinged with a mix of anger and frustration.
Jude's mind raced, scrambling to find a way to diffuse the tension. "I understand, Scarlett. But trust me, it's for the best. I need to do this," he pleaded, his voice softening with empathy.
Scarlett's features softened momentarily, but she remained resolute. "I don't understand, Jude," she admitted, her voice tinged with vulnerability. "But I trust you."
Jude's heart swelled with gratitude despite the weight of their predicament. "Thank you, Scarlett," he said sincerely, his voice filled with appreciation.
Scarlett's expression softened further, her frustration dissipating into a pout. "Fine, but I still don't like it," she grumbled, crossing her arms in defiance.
Jude couldn't help but smile at Scarlett's display of childish stubbornness. "I know, Scarlett. But sometimes we have to do things we don't like," he replied gently, his eyes reflecting understanding.
Lucy stepped forward, her presence a soothing balm amidst the tension. "Come on, Scarlett. Let's give Jude some space," she suggested, her tone warm and inviting.
Jude and Lucy exchanged a knowing glance, silently communicating their shared dilemma. Before they could respond, Scarlett's expression morphed into a playful pout, a display of childish determination that brought a smile to Jude's lips.
Scarlett beamed, her curiosity momentarily satisfied. "Okay!Fine, I'll go find some seashells,"
Scarlett relented with a sigh, her shoulders slumping slightly. she conceded, casting one last glance at Jude before turning away.
As Scarlett walked off, Jude felt a mix of relief and determination. He turned to Lucy, a silent understanding passing between them.
"Let's go, Lucy," Jude said softly, his gaze fixed on the distant horizon where the ocean met the sky.
Together, Jude and Lucy made their way towards the ocean, the weight of their mission buoyed by a sense of purpose and resolve. Each step brought them closer to closure, a chance to honor Eva's memory and embrace the transformative power of love.

As they reached the water's edge, the rhythmic crash of waves provided a backdrop to their shared contemplation. Jude held the can in his hand, its surface gleaming under the sunlight, a vessel of memories and emotions waiting to be released.
Lucy stood beside Jude, her presence a silent affirmation of their shared journey. Without words, they exchanged a glance, a silent vow to carry Eva's legacy forward with grace and resilience.
In that fleeting moment, amidst the vastness of the ocean and the endless sky, Jude felt a sense of peace wash over him. Eva's spirit lingered in the air, a guiding light illuminating their path forward.
In the distance, Scarlett watched with a mixture of curiosity and resignation. Despite her initial resistance, she sensed the gravity of the moment, a testament to the enduring power of love and the resilience of the human spirit.
As Jude and Lucy turned to leave, Scarlett's gaze lingered on them, her heart touched by the depth of their bond. In that fleeting encounter, she glimpsed a world of possibilities, a reminder that love knows no bounds and that hope endures amidst life's inevitable challenges.
Hand in hand, Jude and Lucy made their way toward the ocean, a pilgrimage of sorts to bid farewell to a beloved soul and carry forth the legacy of enduring love.
Together, Jude and Lucy cast the can into the ocean, a symbolic gesture of letting go and embracing the beauty of impermanence. The path to the shore was a tapestry of emotions, silence punctuated by the distant cries of seagulls and the rustle of leaves in the breeze.
With each step, Jude found solace in Lucy's presence, a beacon of light guiding him through the shadows of grief.
As the waves carried it away, a sense of closure settled over them, weaving a tapestry of remembrance and renewal.
After throwing it away they turned. Before Jude and Lucy walked away from the shores they remembered Scarlett and her pouty face for throwing away the can she found. They decided to get some conch shells for her before they leave.
With a final glance at the ocean, Jude smiled, a silent acknowledgment of the transformative journey they had undertaken together. Hand in hand, he and Lucy walked away, their hearts lighter with the burden of farewell and the promise of new beginnings.
