Game of Destiny – A Thrilling Tale of Power, Love & Fate

We arrived in the town in the afternoon and I guided Martin to the diner. I had barely got out of the

car when I found myself in a hug. CeCe squealed as she hugged me. I laughed and hugged her

“You look amazing!” she told me.

“Look who’s talking. You are radiating,” I said to her. She giggled.

“I am annoyingly happy,” she confessed, making me laugh.

“As you should be. Come and meet my friend,” I said and pulled her over to where Martin stood

with an amused smile. “CeCe this is Martin, Martin this is CeCe, the bride to be,” I introduced

“Hello, and congratulations,” he said.

“Thank you and welcome to the metropolitan we call home.” CeCe leaned in to me. “That’s not the

man you left with,” she whispered. Martin could hear her with his improved hearing, and he had to

fight not to laugh.

as well?” she asked. Martin had to pretend to look for something in the back of his car. But my

hearing and the slight shaking of his shoulders told me he was laughing.
