“Leila plopped onto one of the beds, “ This was a good choice for our weekend Myolie.”
“We haven’t even done anything yet and you’re already this happy, I hope you won’t be disappointed.”
Myolie and Leila freshened up and met the guys downstairs in the dining hall. It was getting crowed as the program was about to start. They found a table in the front of the room.
“Please welcome our performed of the night, the famous and talented magician, Mr. Johnson Lee.” The voice boomed out of the sound system to fill the entire room.
Everyone began clapping their hand, and out of nowhere the magician appeared, causing the audience to clap louder.
“Now, before your dinner is serve I would like to begin the show be asking for a couple who would be willing to volunteers to help me with my warm up act.”
Bosco immediately raised Myolie’s hand while Leila quickly followed after him and raised Raymond’s hand.
“Wai, what are you guys doing?” Myolie asked as she tried to bring her hand down, but Bosco kept a firm grip. She kept shrugging but it was not use, the magician already noticed them.
“Okay, I see that couple right in the front seems very eager. If you would please come up on stage.”
Two escorts came to get them and lead them to the stage. Myolie and Raymond were both shaking their hands protesting that they didn’t really want to be chosen. They looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders, looked like they would have to do it.
“Welcome, may I ask for your names?”
“Raymond Lam”
“Myolie Wu”
“Nice to have you here Mr. Lam and Ms. Wu.” This is going to be a simple warm up trick, you won’t have to do anything difficult, I just need for Mr. Lam to stick your right hand out, and Ms. Wu, if you could put your left hand out. Now Mr. Lam, please hold Ms. Wu’s hand and interlock your fingers together.”
Raymond and Myolie did as they were instructed.
“Okay, so I’ll put this cloth over the both of your hands,” the magician held the cloth up and showed it to the audience front and back to let them see there was nothing special. He then laid the cloth over Raymond’s and Myolie’s hand. He said some magic words and pulled the cloth off, “Now I want you two to try to pull apart from each other.”
Both Myolie and Raymond pulled very hard but it was no use, it was as if someone had put permanent glue between their hands. They continued to yank their hands apart, but they still wouldn’t budge. The two of them caused quite a laugh for the audience seeing work so hard was extremely hilarious.
“If you would proceed back down to your seats now.”
“What about our hands?” Myolie asked
“Ah, you see, this is only the first part of the trick, at the end of the show your hand will separate like that,” the magicians snapped his fingers, “And that is the real trick. Now if you’ll go enjoy your dinner I’ll call for you to come back up at the end of the show.”
“But how are we suppose to eat with our hand like this?” Raymond questioned as he raised their hands up.
“You’ll find a way,” the magician said with a mischievous smile.
The escorts came back to lead Raymond and Myolie to their table. Although Myolie and Raymond felt awkward holding hands, they still had a good attitude, they kept a smile on their face the entire time because they understood it was just part of the show.
They sat down in their seat, and the server brought out their food.
“Wai, it’s all you guys’ fault, why did you volunteer us?” Myolie slapped Bosco’s arm with her free hand, “Look, how are we suppose to eat?”
“Sorry la, we didn’t know he would do something like that.” Bosco apologized
“It’s okay, Myolie we still have your right hand and my left hand, with some teamwork I don’t think we’ll starve.”
Myolie picked up the knife and Raymond picked up his fork. They worked together and cut their steaks into bit-sized pieces. Without thinking that they could eat with their free hand they began taking turn feeding each other.
Bosco was smiling secretively to himself, buy Myolie caught him, “What are you smiling about? Is our misfortune your pleasure, huh?”
“Of course not, I feel very bad for you guys.” Bosco said sincerely
“Come to think of it, maybe you should be the one feeding us since you got us into this mess.”
“ME? What about her?” Bosco pointed at Leila, “she was part of it too!”
“Wai, why are you bringing me into this?”
Myolie regret bring it up. Bosco and Leila began to argue, causing the people around to look over at their table, “Fine, I won’t blame you two anymore.” she told them quickly so they would stop the fight.
“Thanks Myolie, I knew you wouldn’t hold a grudge. You and Ray are doing good job feeding each other anyways.” Leila complimented.
Myolie was about to reply back when they heard the magician say, “Will Mr. Lam and Ms. Wu please come back onto the stage at this time.”
Myolie and Raymond made it to the center of the stage, “I will now release you two.” the magician told them. He snapped his fingers and they were able to pull their hands apart, “and for being such a cooperative assistance I have a gift for the two of you.” He handed them a box.
Myolie and Raymond went back to their table.
“What did he give you?” Leila asked as she bounced excitedly up and down in her seat
Myolie opened the top of the black box, “Wah! They’re so pretty”
“Mm-hm, they’re really unique.” Leila agreed as she nodded her head.
Myolie picked up one of the watches and laid it over her wrist, “There’s two Ray, we can each have one.”
“Okay, why don’t you keep them for now and give one to me when we get home.”
“Yeah, no problem,” Myolie said as she placed the watch back into the box.
Bosco scooted closer to Leila, “Wai, you see that? It’s a set of watches for couple’s.” Bosco whispered into Leila’s ear, “they’re definitely meant to be together.”
“When did two become so close? Whispering with each other and all.” Myolie asked
“Wai, you mind scooting over, I’m not too familiar with you.” Leila said as she push Bosco away and moved her chair over.
The program came to an end, and everyone began leaving the dining hall.
“We should probably get back to our rooms and get some sleep. We have a full day ahead of us tomorrow.” Myolie reminded them.
They said their goodnights and went up to their rooms.

Next Morning
Bosco went out for a morning jog. He stopped when he saw a familiar figure standing on the beach. He watched as she picked up a rock and skipped it into the ocean. “Stephy?” Bosco thought. “Stephy!” He cried out. It caused the girl to turn around. “Her? How come it’s her? How come it’s Leila…Stephy, why isn’t it you?”
“What are you screaming about so early in the morning? You’re killing the scenery!!!” Lelia shouted back.
Bosco jogged back to his room. He got into the shower and let the water splash on his face. He tried to clear his mind, but he repeatedly had her image in his mind, “It looked just like her, just like Stephy.” He thought back to the way he saw Leila skip the rock. “How come it was her and not Stephy?” He asked himself, as tears rolled down his face.
