Epic 88"Anyways, Well, I've got a few ideas in the works," Kyrian replied a hint of mischief in his voice. "But I'm also considering taking some time off, you know? Maybe explore the world a bit, see where the wind takes me."Timi laughed, clapping Kyrian on the back. "Well, I know of at least one person who'd be interested in exploring with you," he said with a wink.Jasmine shot him a look, trying her best to hide the colour rising in her cheeks. As they reached the brunch spot, Timi's laughter echoed through the air. "Hey, Jasmine," he said, bumping her lightly with his shoulder. "Looks like our boy here is getting all lovey-dovey on us. What do you say, Kyrian? Ready to take our girl out on a proper date, or what?"Kyrian's cheeks reddened slightly, but he gave a good-natured chuckle. "Hey, if she's up for it, I'm always game," he replied, glancing at Jasmine with a playful smirk. Jasmine playfully rolled her eyes at Timi, but couldn't help the warmth that spread through her at K
Epic 89"Tomorrow sounds perfect," Jasmine said, a small smile on her lips. "Do you have anything in mind for our date? I mean, I'm sure you've got some pretty impressive ideas up your sleeve."Kyrian grinned, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "Oh, I've got a few tricks up my sleeve, don't you worry about that. But for our first date, I thought we could keep it simple. Maybe a nice dinner, a walk in the park?"Jasmine nodded, her heart fluttering at the thought of spending more time with Kyrian. "Simple sounds perfect," Jasmine said, her eyes lingering on Kyrian's face. "And I think a walk in the park would be lovely“.Kyrian chuckled, his gaze softening. "Well, it's funny how life works sometimes. I mean, who would have thought that we would get to this stage”.Jasmine smiled, her heart swelling with a mix of joy and nerves. Kyrian leaned in, his voice low and intimate. "I know it's a cliché, but I feel like I need to say it. I'm really glad that we met, Jasmine. You've been such a
Epic 90Kyrian pulled into the parking lot of the restaurant, feeling a surge of nerves and excitement. He took a deep breath, reminding himself that he was doing this for Jasmine. He wanted to make her happy, to show her how much she meant to him.As he stepped out of the car, he checked his appearance in the side mirror, running a hand through his hair. Then, he picked up the package, his heart beating a little faster as he headed towards the entrance of the restaurant.As he opened the door, he saw Jasmine waiting for him, her face lighting up as she saw him. "Kyrian!" Jasmine exclaimed, her voice filled with warmth and joy. "You look great."Kyrian smiled, feeling his nerves melt away in the face of her radiant smile. "So do you, Jasmine," he said, stepping closer to her. "And you smell amazing."Jasmine blushed, her cheeks turning a soft shade of pink. "Why, thank you, Officer," she said, her voice a teasing purr. "I suppose you're trying to butter me up before our date?"Kyrian
Epic 91Jasmine's eyes widened in surprise, but the smile on her face only grew wider. "Oh, Babe, you're so demanding," she said, her voice dripping with faux outrage. "But I suppose I can agree to these terms, as long as you promise to make it worth my while."Kyrian's lips curved into a smug smile, his hand moving to gently trace the curve of Jasmine's cheek. "Babe, you have my word. Tonight, you'll see just how worth it you are."Jasmine's breath caught in her throat, her body flush with desire. As Jasmine and Kyrian walked arm in arm towards his car, their hearts were racing with anticipation. The city lights cast a romantic glow over them, the night air cool and crisp.They spoke softly, their voices filled with laughter and banter as they teased and flirted with each other. Every touch, every glance, was electric with promise.They arrived at Kyrian's car, and he opened the door for Jasmine, his eyes twinkling with mischief. "After you, Babe," he said, offering her a mischievous
Epic 92As they entered the park, Kyrian paused, his gaze turning towards Jasmine."Do you remember this place?" he asked, a smile playing at the corners of his mouth.Jasmine's eyes sparkled with emotion as she nodded. "Of course I do," she said, her voice soft and gentle. "This is where we first fell in love."Kyrian's smile widened as he pulled her into his arms. "It was right here, under this very same tree, that I knew I loved you," he said, his voice full of emotion. Jasmine melted into his embrace, her head resting against his chest. "I felt the same way," she whispered, her voice trembling with emotion. "I knew right then and there that you were the one for me."Kyrian held her tightly, his heart swelling with love. "I don't want you to go, Jasmine. I don't want to be without you."Jasmine lifted her head, her eyes shining with tears. "I don't want to go either, Kyrian. But this is something I have to do, for my grandmother. Kyrian nodded, understanding but still hurting at th
Epic 93After months of separation, Jasmine was finally ready to return home. She had spent the last few days packing her belongings, her heart swelling with excitement at the thought of reuniting with Kyrian.As she boarded the plane, her mind was a flurry of emotions. She couldn't believe that this day had finally come, that she was finally going to see Kyrian again.And when she finally stepped off the plane, her eyes immediately sought out Kyrian's face in the crowd. Kyrian's eyes met Jasmine's across the terminal, his face breaking out into a smile of pure joy.Jasmine felt her heart skip a beat as she rushed towards him, her bags forgotten as she threw her arms around his neck."I've missed you so much, Kyrian," she whispered, her voice trembling with emotion.Kyrian held her tightly, his arms enveloping her in a warm embrace. "I've missed you too, Babe. So much. The two stood in the airport, oblivious to the people rushing around them, their embrace a testament to the strength
Epic 94Jasmine placed her hand on his arm, her voice gentle. "Kyrian," she said, her eyes full of compassion. "I know this is a lot to think about. But remember, you don't have to decide right now. Take some time to think about it, and talk to Timi and Dada if you need to. And whatever you decide, I'll be here to support you."Kyrian turned to Jasmine, his eyes grateful. "Thank you, Babe. It means a lot to me that you understand."Dada smiled, his expression warm. "Now, enough of this serious talk. Let's eat! And so, the group turned their attention to the feast spread out before them, Dada regaling them with tales from his childhood in Nigeria, Timi joking about his latest dating mishap, and Jasmine gently steering the conversation away from Kyrian's message.Kyrian, meanwhile, found himself lost in thought, his mind turning over the possibilities and implications of the message. He couldn't help but wonder if he was finally on the verge of learning something about his past, somethi
Epic 95The two friends dove into their research, poring over old newspaper articles and police records, searching for any mention of Brian Kwan.After hours of fruitless searching, Timi finally let out a triumphant shout. "I think I've found something!"Kyrian rushed over to his friend's side, his heart pounding in his chest. "What is it?"Timi gestured to the computer screen, his eyes shining with excitement. "This article here. It's about a cold case, a missing person's case. And look at the name of the lead detective."Kyrian's eyes widened as he read the name in bold print. "Brian Kwan. That's him! That's my dad!"Timi leaned back in his chair, his expression one of satisfaction. "Exactly! And what's more, this case sounds like it was pretty big. The missing person was a wealthy businessman named Robert Osei. But then the case went cold and Brian Kwan disappeared shortly after."Kyrian shook his head, his eyes flashing with anger and confusion. "Why would my dad just disappear li
