Destined to love Not on my life… especially, word given to a beauty
Ben, Frank and Sarah arrived at the entrance of the Baldwin valley ahead of Ed all thanks to Ben’s apprehension. Although everything was meticulously arranged by Shadow, he would not be at ease until the event started. His theory was ‘if it could be bought once, it definitely can be bought again’; He didn’t want to take a chance. He was sure Maine was overseas, but one can never be too sure. This was a perfect opportunity as other prying eyes were all overseas as well.Ben, Frank and Sarah scanned the area diligently for 10 mins; still not seeing any signs of Dana.“Are you sure she’s going to come?”Frank wasn’t convinced. ‘Dana didn’t seem like someone who rode. In country A, these sorts of events tend to be attended by three groups of people, first would be the elites or upper class of the society; second, the schemers who wanted to find a rich partner and the third, were young generation adventure junkies. Dana didn’t seem to fit into any of these groups.’Ben's taut voice broke h

“Can I request the person holding the card with the upper case “B” to introduce yourself at the counter here with me?” Harry announced as he looked charmingly at Lara.“Looks like there’s trouble!” Frank smirked.Ben pursued his lips into a ‘we’ll see’ smile before heading towards Harry.“I’ve got it, any issues?” Ben asked in a flat tone.Harry, Lara and Dana turned towards the voice.“Oh no…no…no…” Dana whispered as she hid behind Lara. Lara was also surprised as she saw the bearer of the card.Ben’s lips curled up at the corner of his mouth as he saw Dana hiding behind Lara like a little rabbit.Harry formally introduced Lara and Dana to Ben and quickly explained the situation, giving an empathetic look, he suggested “Would you mind…”Before Harry could finish his question, Ben responded pretended to misunderstand and spoke in a carefree attitude “It’s fine, it’s for a good cause. I am not into competing myself and am a good rider if I may say so myself” he raised his eyebrows prou
Destined to love I'd like to hand over everything including myself
“There” Dana pointed excitedly as she spotted the red box ahead. Ben dismounted his horse and got Dana down, holding her by the waist. “I can get down by myself” She frowned turning her head away. Dana felt her heart rate increasing, her breathing quickened by his sudden amorous action. “Hur…Hur” Ben just laughed; he didn’t expose her. He was overjoyed by her reaction to his touch, which was different to her usual rejection and indifference. The mail read- You have reached the first destination, press your buzzer before proceeding to get your score logged. “Relax and refresh yourself. A new beginning requires a new outlook. The path you take will lead you to bliss if you’ve figured me out; if not, keep trying till you find bliss.” “Press” Dana ran towards the kit excitedly. He looked at her dotingly, he liked this side of hers- unrestrained and refreshing! “We should keep the buzzer on us from now on” She passed his buzzer onto him enthusiastically. “You want to win?” He was
Destined to love I can tell you… but am sure I'll have to kill you after that!
‘How stupid… silly… stupid…infatuated stupid female’ she kept scolding herself.“Do you really want to win?” He asked in an attempt to divert her attention.“Umm” she nodded.“What will you do with the prize?” He looked at her curiously.“That depends on how much 10,000 can be stretched” she forgot about the previous embarrassment and smiled contentedly.“Isn’t it 20,000?”“Yes... but if we win, we’ll have to divide equally.”What he wanted to say was ‘What’s mine is yours’, but he didn’t want to add to her previous uneasiness, he wanted to see her sprightly expression, hear why she was so keen so he opened his mouth “you can have mine too!”“Really” she smiled brilliantly and started talking animatedly “First, there’s two boys at the children’s hospital awaiting prosthetics. Then, there’s a cute little girl who’s been given a lifeline of 3-4 months and her biggest wish is to visit Fairyland in X country. Most of her little life, she’s been in hospital. I want to arrange a trip for he

A few feet ahead was a clearing with a brightly colored letterbox, a picnic basket and rug. Ed hurriedly messaged his friends that he was busy and would update after the competition. ‘What else could he do?’Lara rushed forward excitedly and opened the letterbox; their buzzers unlocked. She hurriedly pressed hers and looked at him “Hurry up”.He picked his buzzer with an imperturbable attitude. Lara snatched his buzzer pressed it hurriedly and shoved it back in his hands. He looked at her inquisitively, but her focus was on the letter-“Now that you’ve pressed your buzzer, your timer has been activated. Enjoy our carefully crafted lunch and relax.When your time is up the lock from your inner box will automatically open to give you guidance for the next task along with your souvenir.”“There’s another box inside?” Lara knelt down and looked into the letter box curiously. She put her hand inside and tried to nudge the box open with no luck.“Do you think you can pry open the box?”“We

“Not sure… I don’t think Dana is similar to other women though.”“How so?”“Firstly, he’s been after her for 3 months and she hasn’t even acknowledged his effort. How many women do you know that aren’t swooning over him?”Sarah nodded with pursed lips.“Secondly, although she is not drop dead gorgeous, there is something about her that attracts others and there is no lack of pursuers, however she does not seem to be interested in anyone.”“Verbally at least” Sarah added.“Eh?”“Women’s intuition” Sarah smiled.“Do you think it will pass for Ben?” Sarah quizzed.“I don’t think so. I think he’s lost the plot this time” Frank shook his head. “I have never seen him like this before… definitely not for a woman. Sometimes I even wonder if this is our Ben!”Sarah frowned “Is there anything we can do to help?” Sarah really hoped that Ben and Ed would find their happiness like her and Frank.“Don’t think so” Frank rejected.“Maybe I can try being friends with her and reintroduce them?”“Let’s

The sack contained a variety of items. An envelope, a packet of mushrooms, sachets of spices, a loaf of bread, a bottle of olive oil, a bottle of water and some bite sized snacks.Dana quickly took both their buzzers and pressed with a frown.“What’s wrong? Isn’t this good?” Ben looked confused. ‘Didn’t they just find a whole lot of stuff? Why was she frowning?’ He didn’t have to think long.“We missed a lot of time due to that stupid horse. Some one must have already got the bonus points for pressing the buzzer at this juncture first.” Dana pouted.What Dana and Ben didn’t know was at this stage, the only other teams that had reached this juncture was Ed and Frank. However, both of these teams missed pressing the buzzer in excitement. Hence their buzzers were pressed at the same time. This was the only round when there was bonus points for the team pressing the buzzer first!Dana’s frown deepened. Ben raised his hand to smooth the frown and comforted gently “Doesn’t matter. We’ll cat
Destined to love Did I say something that would get me killed later?
Lara mounted her horse and mocked “Have you finished sulking? Ready to win?” She raised her eyebrows in a challenging manner.“Don’t you have to figure out puzzle?” Ed ignored the tease.“Child play” Lara’s lips curled in disdain.Ed shrugged with a blank look.Lara recited the puzzle again and asked, “What is it the only thing that is within you and can be broken by someone else?” Lara looked at Ed like she was looking at a fool.“I can think of two things” Ed pursed his lips into an evil grin once he was enlightened “But I think, the one you are looking for should be - Heart.”Lara narrowed her eyes as she thought of what he said. She rolledh her eyes “Tsk…Tsk…. What a dirty mind?”“Since you figured it, yours isn’t any better.” Ed smirked.“Ha…. Ha…. ha….” Lara laughed heartily; she didn’t take any offense.Ed was impressed by her openness and fair nature. Most women would joke but be offended if the pot is thrown at them.They trotted forward looking for anything that was heart sh
