The woman got startled by Tamara, and she was also feeling embarrassed for being called out. She shook her head unconsciously and muttered, “I wasn’t…”Something flashed across Tamara’s eyes as she asked, “Really?”The woman grew nervous. She couldn’t keep up the act for long. “Sorry. It was just that the two of you looked so good that I thought you were some movie stars. That’s why I snapped a picture of you…”“Can I have a look at the picture?” asked Tamara.“Sure.” The girl nodded and passed Tamara her phone. Tamara observed the picture closely. “This isn’t a nice photo. Look! Our faces are blurry in the picture. Oh! But this one looks fine. Can you send this one to me?”Tamara’s reaction was not what the woman was expecting. She widened her eyes in shock before she nodded slowly. “Okay.”After the woman sent her the photo, Tamara smiled at her. “Movie star or not, I don’t think anyone would enjoy having their photos taken without permission. I’m sure you wouldn’t like it i
The rollercoaster stopped at the ride’s highest point for a few seconds. Everyone held their breath.Then, the rollercoaster lurched forward.Tamara couldn’t help but scream.She felt like her heart dropped with the rollercoaster.Just when the ride came close to the ground, it took another sharp turn and sped up. It spun around 360 degrees.It was too scary!Tamara slowly lost her calm. Her scream was so loud that she feared she might rupture her eardrums.…After the first ride, Tamara’s legs were like jelly when they got off.She turned to Sebastian with a pale face, only to find Sebastian grinning down at her. He didn’t look uncomfortable and even had an amused glint in his eyes.Tamara fell silent.This man was scarier than the ride.Sebastian helped Tamara to a bench. He bought her a bottle of water and passed it to her.Tamara felt better after drinking the water. She turned to Sebastian. “Wasn’t it scary?”Sebastian sat down beside her and patted her back lightly.
The car being rammed was one of the many that kept bumping into Tamara.The bright pink bumper pushed the car into the railings before he went for another one.The boy cursed at the bright pink car.That did not stop Sebastian. He turned his steering wheel and crashed into another car.The boys knew what Sebastian was doing. They recovered from their initial shock and began to gang up on Sebastian.Sebastian’s face was void of any emotions. He gave the boys a calm look. Just as they were about to bump into him, he turned his wheel and bumped into another car.A loud bang echoed through the air as the car hit the railings.“You’re the best, my dear husband!” cheered Tamara.Sebastian smirked deviously. He waited for the right chance and went for another car.The boys who were bothering Tamara were all being chased away. They lost their will to continue the game.After Sebastian drove the last car into the railings, Tamara slowly bumped into him. “I don’t know if I should say t
Tamara looked up at the unexpected guests. It was the boys from before.One of them was a blonde boy. He was practically undressing Tamara with his eyes.Tamara ignored them and continued playing with her phone.“Hello.” The boy noticed Tamara was ignoring him and continued, “Why are you here alone? Did your boyfriend abandon you?”His mates laughed at his words.Tamara continued to ignore them.The boy’s confidence faltered. He gritted his teeth and leaned in. He gave her a threatening look. “You’re very pretty. How about you ditch that fuckface and come with me instead?”Tamara finally looked up from her phone. She smirked mockingly at him. “Fuckface? Are you talking about yourself?”The boy cursed and raised his hand to hit Tamara.Before the hit could land, Tamara grabbed his wrist.The boy froze. He saw the sneer Tamara was giving him. Just as he was recovering from the shock, the pain suddenly shot up from his wrist.The boy screamed in pain.His wrist was dislocated!
Tamara observed Sebastian closely. After a while, Tamara retracted her gaze, but her suspicion only grew.She had to get to the bottom of this.…After their meal, they both went for a few more rides. Since Tamara couldn’t handle extreme rides such as the rollercoaster, they spent the rest of the day playing the more tame rides. They only left the park when night fell.They had to take a car back from the park since it was located on the city’s outskirts. Sebastian already had a car waiting for them outside. Once they got in, Tamara fell asleep against Sebastian.She was just too exhausted.Back at the villa, Sebastian carried Tamara back into the room. However, just when they were walking past the courtyard, Alice had also just returned.The sun was setting beautifully along the horizon. This inspired Alice, and she quickly took a picture of the young couple.Sebastian took note of this and gave her a harsh glare.Alice shivered under his glare. “Sorry. I just…”“Shut up,” o
Tamara felt disturbed by Sebastian’s smile.“What are you doing?” Tamara whined softly, and she let go of him. “The food’s almost burnt. Stop bothering me.”Sebastian hummed, “Okay.”He returned to the living room with no intention of bothering her again.Tamara strained to listen to his footsteps. After ensuring he wasn’t coming back in, she silently sighed in relief.She stared at the salt shaker in hesitation. After giving it another thought, she decided to see through her plan and poured a lot of salt into the food.She really hoped her suspicion was just paranoia.…An hour later.“The food’s ready!” Tamara brought the food into the dining hall and smiled at Sebastian.Sebastian immediately came over to help carry the plates.Tamara had cooked up a lot of food.Sebastian couldn’t help but complimented Tamara when he saw the dishes. “I never knew you had it in you.”Tamara huffed proudly. “You’d better keep a close eye on me. A beautiful and skilled woman like me would
Sebastian could have kept this a secret forever.But he knew Tamara’s suspicion would only grow, and in time, it would strain their relationship, so Sebastian decided to come clean.His words amused Tamara.Tamara reached for his hand and smiled up at him. “If that’s the case, I’ll be sure to cook for you every day, and I will definitely kiss you before every meal.”Sebastian cocked an eyebrow. This was great news to him.Still, he found himself saying, “Leave the cooking to the chefs. I’ll be more than delighted with just a kiss before each meal.”Tamara nodded. She sighed and took the “special” dish away.“This is the only dish I poured an ungodly amount of salt in. The rest are fine,” mumbled Tamara.Sebastian hummed.The cat was out of the bag, but Tamara still had one other question. Why did Sebastian lose his sense of taste in the first place?And why did he regain his sense of taste after eating the food made by her?It made Tamara look like some miracle worker.It w
Tamara sighed.She thought to herself, “Fine. Sebastian has a point.”After a moment of silence, Tamara suddenly piped up, “So you don’t think this was fate? Does that mean Alice deliberately planned our meetings?”Sebastian chuckled, “Do you trust me?”Tamara nodded almost immediately. “Of course I do. Who else would I trust but you? A stranger?”Sebastian was greatly amused by her response. He toyed with her hand and whispered in a hushed tone, “She should be showing her true colors soon.”“What?” Tamara was puzzled.A loud bang suddenly sounded from their villa’s front door.The sound was deafening!Tamara’s head snapped towards the sound. She immediately saw the group of armed men rushing in from outside.Tamara tensed. “What is going on?”Sebastian gripped her hand firmly. “Maybe our honeymoon was a little too sweet for their liking. Let’s add some spice to it.”Tamara groaned, “I can’t believe you’re still joking at a time like this. Spit it out! What exactly is going
