"OSCAR, you need to get out of the island once and a while. It's just one night." Dustin keeps on reminding him about the anniversary event of his company FerArD that was in the mainland of that town, or place.
Oscar was not the type to get out of there, not it it's necessary. Especially now that his house, or villa, was finally done and the furnishing will be the next. He wanted to do it by himself. He's been focused on the hotel and cabin since they started the resort that he didn't have time to monitor building his house. So he is still staying at Dustin's house at the top of the hill.
"The others said they're going, how about you? Are you going to stay here alone? Ever since you came and stayed here with me, you didn't go out of the island only if needed."
Five years ago, Kevin, Javier, him and Rafael lived in that island. They planned and built the resort and businesses for a year now. They are half-brothers but they didn't treat each other as one. They have more half-siblings and just like their relationship, they are also close with them.
The legal daughters of their father, whom they call 'The Marias', were also in the country but in the different part of the province. But still they had the chance to meet and be with them. They are fifteen siblings all in all, five legal and ten illegitimate. That's how notorious their father was. Either way, they are still happy to have and meet each other.
Dustin is their eldest brother, although they Javier and Kevin were also the same age as him. Oscar is the next and Rafael was the youngest, they are the five Redwood Brothers. The rest are already daughters. So after helping each other financially they turn the island into lively one, more on the resort part though.
Dustin was the chairman, Javier was the doctor in the house and have a clinic, Kevin with the bar and club, him with the hotel and other accommodation and Rafael with his spa and massage center. The rest were trusted third parties.
Since the resort bloom, some people thought that it was a nest of lust. It's not really their intention at first but when it brings them good money then they just let it be. They didn't correct it. They are not violating any crimes as well. So they just let the people think what suits their taste.
"Don't tell me that you have a lot of work because I have more work than you." Dustin continued persuading him.
Right, among the five of them, he's the busiest because he ran two different businesses, the island and the Architecture and Design Company. How can he argue with that? He wonder sometimes, how did he manage those two together.
"Why do I have to go, by the way? I don't know anyone there anyway." He pointed out. He really hates formal gatherings.
"Yes, but you can introduce yourself and make it known. Just to have a conversation. The trees and cabins won't talk back to you, you know."
"De acuerdo, me voy." He gave up and said he'll go. He had a mix blood of Spanish, Filipino and American, and because he grew up in Spain, Spanish is his first language.
He knew that his brother won't stop until he said yes. That's how persistent Dustin is. Plus, he also lived with him. Since his house is not yet furnished, he can't just lave there yet. Their other brother already built their own home since they started polishing the island before. There are spaces at the bottom of the hill for them. The other areas beside Dustin's house were already steep, so they decided to build it at the bottom. Only him, Rafael and Javier built a home in there because Kevin decided to make a penthouse at the top of his bar and club. But, there are still a space Dustin gave to him, if ever he wanted to built a house too.
