They changed their clothes and went downstairs.

They found a restaurant offering delicious Asian and Western cuisines.

Adam ordered grilled mackerel fillets, vegetable lasagna, garlic bread, egg omelette and plain rice.

After Adam had eaten all the foods in his plate, Caden eats all the remaining food with a voracious appetite.

"Adam, I'm full. Let's rest in the poolside first and hit the gym later tonight. I want to go swimming right now and see some sexy bikini bodies!" Caden suggested.

Adam chuckled.

"Let's go upstairs and change into our swimming trunks. Oh wait, we don't have swimming trunks with us. Let's buy first in that boutique," Adam said, his finger pointing at the swimwear store in front of the restaurant.

They left the restaurant, entered the swimwear boutique and brought 4 pairs of swimming trunks with two beach towels, they got two pairs each.

Fifteen minutes later they were already frolicking in the crystal blue water of the man-made beach.

There was a diverse age group swimming in the man-made beach and the pool. Children accompanied by their parents were swimming in the kiddie pool nearby. Single adults and elderly couples were mostly swimming in the beach closer to Adam and Caden.

Twenty minutes later...

Adam and Caden got out of the water and sat down on the lounge chair under the shade of the coconut tree.

Around twenty individuals mostly women were swimming on the man-made beach. Several pretty women wearing sexy swimsuit caught Caden's wandering eyes.

One of the groups consisting of five women, each of them was wearing a two-piece provocative racy swimsuit. Their creamy curvaceous body glistened under the golden rays of the sun.

Caden's eyes were bulging from his eye-socket. He'd never seen such hot ladies before! This is f*cking great! he told himself.

"Wow, look at those sexy babes and their smoking hot fantastic bodies!" exclaimed Caden.

Adam glanced at the ladies with squinting eyes, the group of bikini-clad women were also looking at their direction.

The alluring babes giggled and smiled in a friendly way at Caden and Adam.

Adam smiled at Caden. "Looks like they are specifically drooling at you, Caden!"

Caden snorted. "Nah, I think they are ogling at you!"

"Whatever," Adam covered his upper body including his eyes with the beach towel.

Caden elbowed him. "What are you doing? The girls are waving at us. What should I do?" he asked nervously.

"Wave back or blow them a kiss!" Adam said joking.

And being the obedient child that he is, Caden does both.

The ladies giggled, smiled, waved back at Caden and soon they splash back into the water like mermaids with their missing tail.

Caden was all smiles mesmerized by the ladies bodies, he was thoroughly engrossed in bikini binge watching, he was truly enjoying himself.

He took a peek at Adam's close eyes behind the towel.

"Are you sleeping?" he asked. "For the life of me, I just can't believe you're ignoring those sexy ladies!"

"I'm not interested," Adam said casually. Those ladies may have been fantasizing at his looks earlier but if they saw him in his early days as the curse and ugly one, they will surely not waste their time on him.

"Then, what are you thinking, bro?"

"I'm thinking back home and Jessy," said Adam softly.

"Aww," Caden pat his friend's shoulder.

"Go on, dream of Jessy! Let me handle all the hot ladies all by my self," he chuckled pleased with himself.

"Enjoy!" replied Adam, giving him a thumb up sign as encouragement.

Later that night...

They opted to forgo their gym and fitness plan because they wanted to finish unpacking all the appliances and furniture.

At exactly near midnight, they were finished with everything, the bed sheets, pillows, and blankets were the last to go.

"Caden, you can choose which bedroom you want..."

"Can I have the one near the balcony?" he smiled with puppy dog eyes.

"Why? Because you want to keep ogling those sexy bikini babes before bedtime?" said Adam.

Caden let out a roll of laughter. "How did you know?"

"Your face betrays you, bro!"

Adam laughed hard at his friend. "No problem you can have it, go now and take your bed-sheets, pillows, and blanket with you into your room and have a good night."

"Are you going to sleep now? Can I watch TV first? " Caden asked.

"Yes, you can."

Adam took his bed-sheets and entered his room.

After fitting his bed with the bed-sheets, he took the small black bag from the drawer of his wardrobe.

He spread the contents into the bed. His lips broke into a slight smile.

It was Jess' clothing he stole before he leaves the mansion. Touching them and smelling her clothing makes him feel closer to her.

Everything has changed now. He once died and resurrected. The cursed was gone and he got a new face and a new life to live. He even got a new name and surname as well. He's very much wanting to show his present look to Jessy and see what her reaction will be.

Will she love him with his present look? Will she look at him as a stranger? Will, she remembers him as Ronnie?

The difference between the old Adam and the new version of Adam was huge. Although his voice was the same as before, there was no trace of his former self when it comes to his image. He loves the present version of himself though. And he wouldn't exchange it for anything in this world.

If he wants to make Jessy fall in love with him again, he has to start all over again.

He released a deep sigh.

Adam brought back his attention to the garments. He took his time running his trembling fingers all over her tank tops, her shorts, and her lacy underwear, at most times squeezing them hard as if squeezing the same body parts they were made for. He smiled a little, remembering so well how each garment fitted Jess' body curves perfectly.

Tears of longing start appearing in the corner of his eyes. He didn't bother to wipe them away. He let the tears fall. His longing so deep it created a deep vacuum of emptiness and loneliness within his heart.

He gathered the soft garments into his arms and whispered...

"I love you so much, Jess! I miss you so much it hurts!"

Two hours later...

He still can't sleep no matter how hard he tried. His active mind keeps imagining and thinking of Jessy. His groin was aching and throbbing because of unspent passion. The remembrance of their hot passionate lovemaking inside his room, in her bed, and in the beach, all were like twirling masses of sweet torture, making his eyes wide awake.

He needs to see her again!

He will go mad crazy if he can't see her girlfriend again.

Tomorrow night, he will visit Jessy in the Facility!

After making up his mind along with the intense anticipation of seeing her again playing in his consciousness, he finally falls asleep like a baby with his dearest beloved garments strewn all over his body.
