Eric rolled his eyes at Adam. "Not interested."
Adam sighed dramatically, clearly disappointed. "Men, always choosing women over their friends. No fun at all!"
Among their group of friends, Adam was the least skilled swimmer, so he had suggested the race as an excuse to "break up" couples, but instead, he ended up being the butt of everyone's jokes.
Meanwhile, Richard and Amelia were having their own fun, with Amelia's voice ringing out, "Richard, stop it! Where are you touching!?"
"Where haven't I touched before? It was an accident!"
"Get lost!"
Ella laughed so hard that tears nearly came to her eyes. Before they knew it, the delightful afternoon slipped away, and the sunset bathed everything in a warm glow. The evening sky was filled with stunning colors, casting a reddish hue over the ocean and the faces of lovers, leaving a beautiful, unforgettable mark on the day.
