At The Bottom of Everything
Chapter 18 : At The Bottom of Everything
Joy didn't want this moment to end, She then turned to Chris and smiled "This is... So relaxing... This is the best day of my life. I'm so glad that i met you, Chris..... "
As Chris looked in her eyes, He saw nothing but grateful reflected back to him, a silent acknowledgement of their shared bond "So, wanna continue our adventure?" he asked Joy with a smile
Joy nodded her head "Of course! I want to explore more of this city, it's so interesting... You are a good guide. Let's continue our adventure together."
As they wandered through the lively streets of the Dawn City, Joy found herself drawn to the enticing aroma of street food stalls.
Joy's eyes lit up as she spotted a stall selling crispy fried chicken. "Oh, that looks amazing! Let's try some," she exclaimed, tugging at Chris's sleeve.
Chris chuckled, his stomach rumbling in agreement. "Sure, why not? But let's make sure it's not too spicy this time," he replied with a grin.
They approached the stall and ordered a generous portion of golden-brown chicken pieces. As they waited for their order, they found a nearby bench to sit and enjoy their feast.
Joy took the first bite, savoring the crunchy exterior and tender meat inside. "Mmm, this is perfect! Not too spicy, just how you like it," she remarked with a mischievous smile.
Chris nodded in approval, reaching for another piece. "Definitely hits the spot. And look, they have mango lassi too!" he exclaimed, pointing to a stall nearby.
With their thirst quenched by the refreshing drink, they continued their stroll, their conversation flowing effortlessly as they sampled more street foods along the way.
As they watched the world go by, surrounded by the sights and sounds of the city, Joy and Chris knew that it was moments like these that made life truly special—simple pleasures shared with someone you trust
Joy then took Chris's hand again and walked with him. She looked at the beautiful scenery around her as she smiled "I can't wait to see more of this city, i love it here...
Chris then nods and leads Joy again by pulling her hand in the busy streets "Come with me, Joy. I have something special to show you."
Curious and excited at the same time, Joy asked Chris with a smile "Where are we going, Chris?"
Not to spoil Joy with the surprise, Chris just smile and replies "It's a surprise. Trust me, you're going to love it."
With a sense of anticipation, Joy nods and follows Chris with a sense of trust and anticipation, as they set off on their adventure.
Joy gazing around in wonder "Wow, this place is beautiful, Chris. Where are you taking me?"
Excited and assuring that Joy would love it, Chris grinning and said "You'll see, Joy.... Just a little further."
They arrive at the center of the The City square, where the fountain stands tall and majestic, its waters shimmering in the afternoon sun.
Joy gasping in awe "Oh, Chris, it's breathtaking! I never seen such beautiful and majestic thing in my life."
Smiling proudly, Chris then said "It's the Dawn City's pride and joy"
They approach the fountain, and Chris reaches into his pocket, pulling out a small coin.
Chris grabs Joy's gentle hand and gave her the coin "Here, Joy.... . Make a wish."
Blushing a bit, Joy takes the coin she looked at Chris and smiled "Okay then, i will try. I'll throw the coin in the fountain... But you have to make a wish too, ok? So that our wishes would come true together..." She then closes her eyes, a smile playing at her lips as she makes her wish.
Its Chris's turn he close his eyes, throws a coin and make a wish. While Chris is wishing Joy secretly took a photo of Chris in the fountain
Chris staring at the fountain, he then heard a sound of someone taking pictures. He turned around to see Joy holding her phone, looking directly at him
