Catching a glimpse of Gael coming out of his house, she was amazed at the kind of clothes he was putting on. He looked so good that someone might think that he is from a very wealthy home or better still he was the owner of something huge himself.
"Where could be going to be dressed like this?", Lisa murmured but having no answers, she decided not to confront him anymore, but rather, she was going to follow him up so as to catch him right-handed.
" I am going to see the lady that has taken your heart away from me Gael".
Taking a look at himself, Gael wished his mom a nice day and told her that he was going to have some time off with his friends.
"Take care son and remember not to cause any trouble with anyone out there okay?", she let out and Gael always listening to his mom's advice, gave her a sweet smile as he placed a kiss on her forehead.
" I will be back before you even start to feel my absence mom, I promise", he said.
His mother was glad to have someone like him and all she wished for was his happiness no matter what he ended up doing. She had brought him up alone and seeing him always in such a happy mood was enough for her to keep on living though they did not have much.
"Oh, thank goodness I did not approach him like his mother would have poured out insults on me", she spoke out holding her chest. She monitored Gael to make sure that he had completely left his house and his mom's sight before starting to follow him.
Lisa was bent on discovering where he was heading to and who he was going to meet. Her heart was going to be at peace only after knowing that there was no other woman in his life apart from her.
" This is good", Yvonne muttered as she entered the beach and caught sight of how beautiful it was surrounded by people and children most especially. It was a weekend and she was aware that the place was going to be crowded with kids and their parents as well.
Spotting a favorable place to put her umbrella, she walked towards it and looked all around to see whether she was bothering anyone, the view was clear enough.
"Okay, I am going to put my stuff here, while I make the most of my time here".
Yvonne began to mount her umbrella before placing her cover under it. Taking a look at it, she was wondering whether to take off her jeans and top to join the others inside the water, but a voice told her to just stay there and watch the others have a good time.
It was soothing to be around people sometimes and to watch how the innocence of kids filled everywhere with joy and serenity. Opening her cooler, she made sure to clip her keys to her trousers in case she was going to forget where she had kept them.
The vapor that came out of the cooler when she opened it, gave her the eagerness to unlock a bottle of cold juice. It was perfect timing for all that she needed to have a great moment. Placing the bottle on her lips, she could feel its coldness and when the liquid slipped into her mouth making its way into her esophagus, Yvonne felt it going down in her system till finally meeting its final destination which was her stomach.
" This is so good", she acknowledged. Not being a fan of alcohol, Yvonne always preferred to drink soft drinks. She always felt that alcohol was not a problem solver rather, it was going to make you forget it for a while and come back fully when you are in your right frame of mind.
Gael was already at the back following Tasha's descriptions of the places Yvonne had the habit of frequenting during her free times and catching a glimpse of her, a smile cropped upon his lips while he shook his home ad in awe saying,
"You know your friend so well Tasha, and it seems like it is very easy to make out her program as she is always in solitude", he whimpered thinking of a way to approach her without having to seem so obvious.
Not knowing that he was being followed, Gael thought of inserting his earpiece and walking by the waterside as though he was there just like every other person. He thought that she was going to be better this time around than their first encounter at the gym.
Adjusting his shirt and putting on his glasses, Gael took off his shoes and began to stroll by the river banks, looking at the birds in the sky and the different feelings that the kids were having. It was a great experience as that was the second thing he was facing that day and it was all new to him, because of the kind of place that he had grown up in.
He did not have the opportunity to play on the beach like the other kids, but he and his friends always went to the little stream that was on their way to the farm where they will jump inside and swim all day.
Yvonne was having a pretty good time and all her worries seemed to have melted with the overheated sun that was out in the atmosphere. But when she had drunk up two bottles of soft beverage already, she decided to lay down and enjoy the sweet cold breeze that was blowing hard.
She had miser that beach and its memories of when she was young till she was growing up. It was her favorite spot and her daddy always loved to bring her over there whenever she was sad or faced with challenges which could make her not want to continue living life anymore.
