Today was the best day of her life.
If this was a dream, she did not want to wake up.
Stop! Stop! Stop! She repeatedly shouted in her mind, giggling uncontrollably. But no words came out of her lips as she was overwhelmed by the tingling sensation in her body.
Then, she wiggled her way out of his hold, freeing herself. She ran, but she knew he was not far behind. And she was not getting away for long. She turned around and found him catching up fast.
"You have to stop." She finally pleaded with him when she found her voice, turning to face him. "Please, I can't take it anymore." She begged him as she slowly stepped away while avoiding his hands from getting a grip of her again.
She let her legs move backward, feeling the sand and water underneath the sole of her feet. But her eyes remained fixed on the handsome face of the man she had long to see. She did not even want to blink, afraid he might suddenly vanish from her line of sight.
