A girl sat on the beach, her gaze fixed on the moon, her face etched with pain. Closing her eyes, she began to play the guitar, her voice carrying a haunting melody filled with anguish yet captivating in its beauty. As memories of happier times flooded her mind, tears welled up, mingling with the salty ocean breeze.

A 21 years old boy was doing first aid of a 7 year old girl. After completing the task, he escorted her to a nearby slab and began cooking, all the while scolding her for her carelessness.

Boy, sternly: "How many times have I told you not to enter the kitchen without me, Diana?"

Diana replied in a cute manner: "You said without elder supervision, and Miss Jones was with me."

The boy questioned skeptically: "Oh really, Mam? Then how did you get hurt? Did you even listen to her when you were cooking under her supervision?"

Diana nodded sheepishly, unable to lie to her brother.

The boy, knowing his sister's stubborn nature all too well, looked at her sternly and demanded: "Did you listen to her and not insist on doing it on your own?"

Diana, unable to meet his gaze, started looking around nervously.

Boy, firmly: "Look at me and answer, Diana."

Diana gulped and finally met his eyes: "Sorry, it won't happen again, I promise." She gave him puppy eyes.

He smiled at her cuteness but maintained his firm tone: "Diana, you are not allowed to enter the kitchen without me, or I will confiscate your art supplies. Am I clear?"

Diana nodded and said, "I won't, but I am hungry now."

The boy sighed and began feeding her.

A 16 year old boy and a 14 year old girl walked silently through the forest at midnight. Suddenly, the boy approached a rock, revealing a secret door, and started leading the way inside. The girl peered into the darkness but, trusting the boy, followed him without hesitation.

At the end of the tunnel, they discovered a Harley-Davidson motorcycle. The girl's excitement bubbled over as she asked, "You will fulfill your promise?"

The boy replied with a playful grin, "Of course not; we will wait here until the bodyguard comes and informs Hitler that we have ditched them."

The girl scolded him, "You idiot, can't you just answer properly?"

"Why are you asking such idiotic questions? Of course, I would," the boy retorted.

"Don't waste time; we have to reach before the bodyguards notice us missing and inform Hitler," the girl urged.

"First, promise me that I taught you this two years before the legal age and ditching bodyguards would be between us only," the boy insisted.

The girl responded, "Oh, I thought we were going to give Hitler a heart attack by directly reaching there with me driving this."
