The aroma of freshly brewed coffee and the tantalizing sight of their balcony's panoramic view created the perfect start to the day. They exchanged smiles, silently agreeing that starting every day with such a view was a future goal.
”Can you believe our luck yesterday?” Evelyn remarked, savoring a bite of her toast. ”We didn't even have to look for Kyle's cousin; he found us himself.”
Sophia chuckled, sipping her coffee as the warm morning sunlight bathed the room.
"And now, on top of that, he's going to take us around Vegas," added Sophia.
”I can't wait to find out more about Kyle,” Evelyn said with a mischievous tone.
"Don't you think that will make him angrier?" Sophia teased.
”I think he should have told me the information himself. He may be a journalist, but I can dig up information myself if I need it.“

The door swung open with a force that signaled the entry of trouble. A man, dressed in all black, strutted into the restaurant. His presence sent a shiver down the spines of the diners, the air thickening with an ominous tension.
