"My neighbor must have given the wrong recipe. I'm not convinced. I'm not eating yours."
She turned away, but the scent of garlic paste walled into her nose.
Next to her, Yoselin chewed on the mushrooms, her eyes sparkling with delight.
She couldn't help thinking how delicious they must be. She had tasted Click's cooking before which was a masterpiece, but she didn't want to admit defeat. Still, the aroma was irresistible, and her salivary glands were working overtime. Unable to resist, she packed up a string of mushrooms and took a bite. So delicious. Damn it, Chuck had won
He smiled smugly. "I told you"
"Don't be smug. You're a cook. It's expected that y
your food is good," Yasmine teised.
Just then, Yasmine noticed an extra grilled shrimp on her plate was peeled and given to her by Yonas. She said. "Thanks"
She popped it into her mouth. It was grilled by Yonas himself.
As the haze lifted, the moonlight began to shine through.
The reddish hues of the sea lake slowly faded, revealing a deep blue luster dotted with
starlight. After
reating and drinking their fill, Lucy pulled Yoselin and Chuck to find other friends vacationing nearby, leaving space for Yonas and Yasmine.
The resort night was beautiful with the moonlight rising as they walked along the shore. A small group of staff collected water plants and debris left by the tide.
Yonas held Yasmine's hand, strolling like an ordinary couple.
"Have you got in touch with Eric?" he asked.
Yasmine nodded. Nearly everyone at the wedding had heard about her search for himn.
Yasmine said, "When I got home, Eric called. He didn't recognize me because many people have pretended to be Ms. Langston's friends lately, and he was wary of being tricked. So he ignored me. By last night, when he heard Yvette call my name, he realized I was the one recommended by Ms. Langston She then arranged a meeting with Eric, planning to bring Yoselin along.
As they continued walking, the seaside was enchanting with trees adorned in blue lights. In this romantic atmosphere, Yasmine and Yonas strolled hand in hand, the taste of barbecue still lingering in her mouth, accompanied by the person she liked,
Suddenly, Yasmine paused and faced Yonas, feeling inexplicably satisfied yes strange. "Do you know what a sense of de ja vu is?"
"A sense of deja vu Not really," he replied,
Yasmine pointed to the dark sky, where a shooting star streaked by. "Shooting stars occur all the time. But we don't always see them. When you do, it feels like you've witnessed it before."
She looked at Yonas, her gare deep and distant. "Deja vu is a phenomenon known as the hippocampal effect in psychology. Have you ever experienced a scene that seems familiar to you You feel like you've had the same thing twice and can remember conversations and mental activity clearly Voras didn't understand why she brought

you on the beach. I must have felt
She covered her mouth and smiled. "Maybe it's because the person beside me is you. The first time I walked with you this sense of dejavu." Yonas opened his mouth several times but couldn't find the words to respond.
Yasmine pulled him along, and he clutched her small hand, guilt weighing on him as he watched her back disappear into the distance. After returning to the hotel, Yonas claimed he had something to do and asked Yasmine to go back to her room.
They had booked several suites at the resort, and Yoselin and Lucy had already gone to rest.
Yasmine didn't think much about it and just asked him to return soon.
Yonas found a corner in the resort's bar and ordered some drinks
By the time Chuck found him, he had already downed three.
"Yonas? Where's Ms. Sanchez? Why are you drinking alone?" Chuck asked.
Yonas expressionlessly offered him a whole bottle of wine. "Have a drink with me.
Chuck stared at the bottle of XO in surprise but complied, pouring glasses for both of them. "What's wrong? Have you fallen out of love?" "No." Yonas replied, drinking one glass.
Chuck scratched his head. "Did you quarrel with Ms. Sanchez? Girls need to be coaxed. You're too aloof.
Yonas' hand faltered "Am I cold around her too?"
"Not really," Chuck said, somewhat resentfully.
""Yeah." Yonas finished his drink in one go.
Chuck couldn't understand what was troubling him and stopped him from pouring more wine. It was XO, not beer. Drinking like that was harmful.
Meanwhile, Yasmine had just finished showering, doing her skincare, and working on a paper. It was almost one o'clock, but Yonas still hadn't returned. What could he possibly be doing? He hadn't answered her calls either, which was unusual While she was still worried, the doorbell rang. She opened the door to find Chuck supporting a drunken Yonai.
"Ms. Sanchez, Yonas was drunk and kept calling your name, so I brought him here," Chuck explained
Yasmine quickly stepped aside as Chuck laid Yonas on the sofa, catching his breath.

Yasmine nodded and sent Chuck out.

On the sofa, Yonas lay back, his brows furrowed in discomfort, repeatedly murmuring, "Yasmine..."
The smell of alcohol filled the room, prompting Yasmine to open a window.
"Yonas," she called, but he didn't respond.
