The Ugly Side Of beauty

CHAPTER 5

MERELDA- " can i really trust you Lucas..?"

LUCAS- " Of Course you can! Thats why im here..to earn your trust again"

Oblationing her life and everything, she ultimately trusted her ex-husband once again. After all, he did look better and more charming. He had worked out, his body was all muscular and fit while his face matched his endearing energy. Thick eyelashes with waves covering nearly both big brown eyes that shimmered whenever Merelda stared into them, deeply. His nose was straight, yet it gave a perfect curve at the same time. He was dreamy. His tan skin meeting his being hands with his unbuttoned shirt. God, how much she loved it. His looks changed but did he change inside, personality? The only way to find out was to follow Lucas's demands, rules and orders and trust him along the way. Optimistically, invoking inside to god, she went with her guts and went for it. That's it, Lucas and Merelda. Once again, " Teammates"

LUCAS- "Right, if you listen carefully and follow my instructions, the faster we can get out of this hideous place, yeah?"

MERELDA- " Y-yeah..what's first?"

LUCAS- " okay so, first thing i noticed is you made an amazing axe! This would really help you Merelda! Never knew how clever you really were, you know."

MERELDA- " Are you saying you thought i was dumb?"

Merelda chuckled, being sarcastic

LUCAS- " Mhm..yeah, i guess you can say that?"

MERELDA- " Hey, Cut that out, smartass!"

LUCAS- " Relax, I'm only joking, love."

The love birds chortled as one another stared deeply into eachothers eyes. The chuckling suddenly terminated and they caught each other staring at one another once again. Flustered, the inamorata turned away rapidly. Merelda acted as if she was fixing herself, yet Lucas turned back and smiled as he covered his face, hiding his grin.

LUCAS- "what's wrong? Am i that attractive you can't look me straight in the eyes, Merelda?"

Merelda perceived a strong vitality. She didnt wanna be seen as shy anymore, after all it was her ex-husband who she's known basically her whole life.

MERELDA- " No way, you wish. I was just fixing myself, idiot. "

LUCAS- " alright, alright..

Then he whispered,

LUCAS- " we both know that's a lie though..anyways so here's the plan.."

After hours of explaining, arguing, giving opinions and exchanging eye contact literally every 2 minutes, they eventually figured out a plan how to escape this mess without getting caught. At least they thought so..

LUCAS- " alright, you ready, love?"

MERELDA- " yes i'm ready, and quit calling me that!"
LUCAS- " I'm the one who gives orders around here, sweetheart"

MERELDA- " whatever, lets just do this thing"

LUCAS- "alright, alright, one of my assistants, Bailey, will be here any minute, along the way will come Linda then from there, we'll talk to the head, distract him somehow and we'll see if we could get the "clock of wisdom". Does that make sense, Merelda?"

MERELDA- "yeah, i'll just follow what you do or say"

LUCAS- " sounds great. Let's go"

The sweet "couple" got a few things before making a hole in the wall. The axe was one of them, the bag that Merelda carried and Lucas's bag. His band included safety equipment such as bandages, syringes, tissues and many more reasonably needed safety kit stuff. As Merelda grabbed the axe to start banging the wall to make an opening for escaping, Lucas stepped in and snatched the tool from her hand
