Is this destiny?

Chapter 1516 - Welcome At The White Rock Lake (7)

Hande was in distress because she lost her first kiss with a fork as a medium and she was trying to comfort herself by the fact that at least it involves Ade, so it can't be all bad. Out of all the boys she knows, if she needs to kiss someone, that would be Ade. But she didn't feel a thing. Isn't that a sad way to lose the first kiss? One day when she sits with her friends, and they reminiscence their first experiences, all her friends will give names like Daniel or Ethan, and when her turn comes, she will need to say 'fork'. That is beyond sad. She lost her first kiss thanks to the temptation of the chocolate cake.

It took Hande a while to compose herself enough and to see that Ade is looking at her with glee. He is obviously enjoying this.

She wanted to say something and wipe that grin off his face, but her brain refused to come up with anything useful.

Hande wondered, why is he so happy? Is it possible that she is not his first victim? Is Ade a scoundrel who goes around and steals first kisses from unsuspecting girls?

Ade tilted his head and carefully observed Hande's face which showed that she is going through some internal struggle.

"What's going on in your head?", Ade asked with amusement in his voice.

Hande lowered her head to avoid his gaze and she stared at the cake while saying in a small voice: "I lost my first kiss to a fork because the chocolate cake is tasty."

Ade widened his eyes for a second before he burst into a laugh.

"You are kidding!", he said while catching his breath. "To make the kiss count two sets of lips are necessary. Otherwise you can go on kissing forks and plates and anything else…" Ade stopped talking abruptly and moved closer to her. "Is that what you are thinking? You want me to kiss you?"

Hande put her free hand on his shoulder with an attempt to push him away, but Ade would not budge. She looked at his grin and pouted, painfully aware that her face is about to catch on fire how much she is blushing.

"Why are you teasing me?", she was on the verge of bursting into tears.

Ade chuckled. "You are too easy to tease. Give me more cake."

Hande refused. She moved the plate away from him. "No. You are teasing me."

"Hey! I got you this cake. Give me at least two more bites!"

"You got it for me, and now you want to eat it. How is that bringing me the cake?", Hande moved to stand up.

Ade held Hande's hand, preventing her from escaping. "You said that we will share, so I should get half. Are you going back on your word?"

Hande sneered. "I said that before you teased me about the indirect kiss."

Ade narrowed his eyes. "Don't make me lick the whole piece."

"You would not dare!"

"Try me.", Ade said smugly.

Hande glanced down and realized that Ade is holding her hand. "Let go of my hand and I will share the cake."

"Feed me.", he demanded.

"Fine!", she exclaimed defiantly. "I didn't know that you are so eager to get my saliva."

Ade shrugged. He will not fall for such provocation. This is about the cake! And he is enjoying the variety of expressions she is showing. Well, at least she is not sad anymore.

Ade let go of her hand and pointed at his open mouth, indicating the place where the next piece of cake should go.

Hande exhaled in defeat and fed him.

Ade smiled smugly and moved to lay back on the dock with his hands behind his head.

Hande glanced at Ade who is relaxing next to her and she was happy that no one is here to see him bully her like this.

She put a piece of cake in her mouth and a second later, she felt Ade tug on her sleeve, demanding his next bite. Well, maybe he is bullying her, but she does not feel lonely anymore.

"Get up. How are you going to eat lying down? The cake will fall off the fork or you will choke and then you will say it's my fault…", Hande whined, and she stopped when Ade sat up.

She decided to make the bites smaller so that it lasts longer.

Hande was not aware that Merve was observing them from the garden for some time.

Merve is holding onto a plate with a piece of chocolate cake on it; she went to Hande's room with an intention to give the cake to her little sister and when she didn't find her, Merve went to the garden. Merve is happy to see that Hande is making friends.

Unfortunately for Hande, it's not only Merve. Rosa, Jamari, Imani, Masika, and many more are in the garden. They trickled out of the villa to the garden as they finished with their dessert. The weather is very pleasant, and they decided to make use of it. The bickering between Ade and Hande is perfect entertainment.

And of course, Sarah and Aiden have their eyes on them through Eve-lens, thanks to the invisible drone which is silently hovering above dock.

Ah, Hande has no idea that almost everyone is watching her and Ade for some time. And it's probably better that she does not know about it.

…

Around eight in the evening, a helicopter silently landed next to the villa, and Kitty leaped out as soon as the door of the helicopter opened.

After a quick sniff of the air, Kitty dashed toward the garden and went straight for Sarah.

"Baby… did you miss me?", Sarah asked in a singing voice while rubbing Kitty's head. "Did you think mommy left you? Well, then you know how I felt when you disappeared in that forest…"

A minute later, Zack and Noah made their way into the garden. Noah used Eve-lens to determine Sarah's location. He is giddy that he is invited to stay here overnight. There is no way he will miss on such an opportunity.

Aiden took the crate with pups from Zack. "Thanks for bringing them."

"No problem.", Zack responded while smiling at the sight of pups who are bending over the edge of the crate so that they can lick Aiden's hands. And their wiggling tails are a giveaway that they are happy to see their daddy.

It didn't take long for Zack to spot Masika who is playing cards at the table nearby.

Sarah thanked Zack and Noah. "Stretch a bit and then you can grab food. It's in the kitchen, so feel free to eat anytime. We finished dinner. We don't have anything planned for tonight, so use this time to relax. Whenever you are ready, someone will show you where you will sleep and around the villa…"

Zack glanced around and remembered. "This is where I met you for the first time. The place looks a bit different."

From the air, Zack noticed that the tennis court is gone; that area is now part of the training grounds, and the guesthouse in the back is much larger. Also, knowing that this is the property owned by Sarah and Aiden, Zack can guess that there is much more underground.

Aiden confirmed. "We remodeled."

The pups were whinnying and reminded their daddy (aka Aiden) that they didn't eat.

"I will take them to eat." Aiden told Sarah and threw a warning glare at Noah before carrying pups inside.
