Cursed By Fate

James gave Carolina the clothes she asked for and made his way to the kitchen to prepare something light for her to eat after she was done in the bathroom.

James realized he had forgotten all about Carl and Laura. He quickly called Carl back, apologizing for the sudden disconnection.

“Hey, man, sorry about that. I think we got disconnected,” James said, chuckling.

“No worries, buddy. I think I know what’s going on,” Carl replied, his voice filled with amusement. “You’re with Carolina, and things are going well, I take it?”

James blushed, feeling a bit embarrassed. “Yeah, man. I think I’m really into her.”

“Good for you, James! I’m happy for you. Just make sure to treat her right,” Carl said, his voice filled with sincerity.

James nodded, even though Carl couldn’t see him. “I will, man. I promise.”

“Hey, Carl, how’s Laura doing? I feel like I’ve been neglecting her today,” James said, feeling a bit guilty.

Carl chuckled. “Laura’s doing great, man. She’s actually really happy for you and Carolina. She’s been teasing me about how you two are meant to be.”

James laughed, feeling relieved. “Glad to hear that. I was worried I might have hurt her feelings or something.”

“No way, man. Laura’s a great person. She just wants everyone to be happy,” Carl said, his voice filled with admiration for Laura.

As they continued talking, Carolina returned, looking fresh and radiant in a new set of clothes. James’ heart skipped a beat as he gazed at her, feeling grateful for this new connection they shared.

“Hey, James, I think we should get going. I’m starving!” Carolina said, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

” Get going where ?” James asked . ” As you can see I’m preparing something for you already”

” Are you a good cook ?” Carolina asked.

” Yes I’m, you can ask Carl . I’m always the one preparing all meals in this house ” James boosted.

” Really!! , I don’t want to have a running stomach just so you know” Carolina said.

” Don’t worry , I will surprise you by the time I’m done ” James said and focused on the onions he was slicing.

James grinned, feeling like the luckiest man alive. “Yeah, let’s go get some food.!”

” Let’s just go eat outside, ” Carolina said.

“Ah, no need to go out, my dear,” James said, his eyes twinkling with excitement. “I’ve got a culinary surprise for you. How about some homemade spaghetti?”

Carolina’s eyes widened in surprise. “You can make spaghetti?”

James nodded, his confidence growing. “Of course, I can! I’ve been cooking for Carl and Laura for months. They love my spaghetti.”NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

” Really!! But Laura didn’t tell me anything about it”.

” I’m amazed she didn’t tell you about it ”

Carolina chuckled. “Well, I’m intrigued. Let’s see what you’ve got.”

James beamed with pride as he began to cook. He started by boiling a large pot of water, adding a pinch of salt and a dash of olive oil. As the water came to a rolling boil, he carefully added the spaghetti, stirring gently to prevent the noodles from tangling.

Carolina watched patiently as James prepared dinner ” I hope you are learning from me ?” James asked.

Meanwhile, he sauteed the onions and garlic in a separate pan, the aroma filling the kitchen with a savory scent. He added a can of crushed tomatoes, stirring well to combine, and let the sauce simmer for a few minutes to thicken.

As the spaghetti cooked to perfection, James drained it and added it to the sauce, tossing the noodles to coat them evenly. He sprinkled a generous amount of parmesan cheese on top and served it up with a flourish.

Carolina took a bite, her eyes closing in rapture. “Mmm, this is amazing!”

James grinned, feeling like a culinary mastermind. “Told you I’ve got skills!”

They sat down to enjoy their meal together, the spaghetti disappearing quickly as they chatted and laughed. James felt a sense of contentment wash over him, knowing he’d made Carolina happy with his cooking.

As they finished up, Carolina reached out and took his hand. “Thanks for the delicious meal, James. You’re a true gentleman.”

James blushed, feeling his heart skip a beat. “Anytime, Carolina. I’m just glad you enjoyed it.”

And with that, they sealed their budding connection with a sweet kiss, the taste of spaghetti still lingering on their lips… Carl and Laura discussed their past since they have both vow not to hide anything from each other again.

” Don’t worry Laura , I promise to haunt those who killed your father and bring them to book ” Carl promised Laura who was still hurt by the past .

Laura nodded and gave Carl a hug . They both slept in each others arms till the following morning.

The next morning, Carl and Laura woke up feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. They lay in bed for a while, gazing into each others eyes, their love and commitment to each other palpable.

“Laura, what do you want to do today?” Carl asked, his voice gentle.

” I think I just have a few documents to sign and that’s all, ” Laura replied. ” What do you want to do ?” She asked Carl.

Carl thought for a moment. “Let’s go for a hike in the woods. It’s a beautiful day out, and I love spending time with you in nature.”

Laura nodded, her eyes sparkling. “That sounds perfect.”

They got dressed and headed out, enjoying the warm sunshine and fresh air as they walked hand in hand through the forest. They talked about their dreams, their aspirations, and their love for each other, feeling grateful for this peaceful moment together.

As they walked, they stumbled upon a beautiful clearing, filled with wildflowers and a babbling brook. They sat down on a rock, watching the water flow, and shared a tender kiss.

“I’m so happy with you, Carl,” Laura said, her voice filled with emotion.

“I’m happy with you too, Laura,” Carl replied, his eyes shining with love. “I promise to always be here for you, to support you and protect you, no matter what.”

Laura smiled, feeling safe and loved in Carl’s arms. “I promise the same to you, Carl. Forever and always.”
