The trio reached Stacy's in the evening. The beach was totally different from yesterday's, fully packed.

"Woah! I love this vibe" Riley chirped enthusiastically and hurried towards the restaurant.

"Here they are" Winnie announced when they reached the restaurant. The trio became shocked when they saw two men sitting on the bar stool beside Winnie.

"Great!" Riley's excitement came down like a parachute seeing Tyler and Ron, looking surprised to see them.

"Oh! Hey," Tyler stood up from the stool and waved at them.

"Surprise, right?" Larra said looking at her cousins.

"Wait! You know them?" Winnie became confused.

"Yeah. They are staying next door"

"But, you said, you guys are in a campervan?" Winnie asked the trio.

"Don't ask. Long story " Shirley rolled her eyes.

"Cool then. Since you already know each other, I don't have much role. Meet my friends, Tyler and Ron " Winnie shrugged.

"Wait, you said you are with your university friends?" Riley narrowed her eyes.

"Yeah. We studied together " Winnie said with an offended face.

"This jerk is a doctor?" Riley asked shocked. Larra and Shirley also looked amused.

"Excuse me?" Tyler asked offended.

"Yeah. They are those hot and spicy doctors we see in K-dramas." Winnie fanned her face dramatically.

"Myself Tyler Beckham. I am an orthopedist" Tyler raised his one hand.

"Ronald Williams. Neurosurgeon" Ron also copied him.

The trio gasped in shock.

"You guys just rewrote the definition of doctors," Larra said with an impressed face.

"Thanks, Larra," Tyler fist-bumped her.

"I can't believe this" Riley muttered and took a seat away from Tyler. He watched her with a smug smile.

This is gonna be fun.

Larra and Shirley took seats around the counter where Stacy was serving drinks.

"Stacy darling," Larra high-fived her, announcing their arrival. Stacy gave her a knowing node, the way of her greeting.

"So, are you guys from France?" Shirley asked the men sitting with them.

"Yes, I am," Tyler said before sipping his drink.

"London," Ron said, revolved on the bar stool to face them, leaning on the bar counter.

"Oh, Riley is from south Hampton" Larra looked at Riley, who rolled her eyes in return.

"That's nice. And you guys?"

"We are basically from India. I'm, Shirley Bassey, settled in India with my parents and boyfriend, working in accounts. Riley Jenner is a pathologist. And, Larra McLaren is in LA, an editor in a magazine." Shirley introduced themselves.

"So, three cousins live on three continents!" Tyler said with an impressed face.

"Yeah. And we meet often like this"

"Do you know how cool it is? I mean, I don't remember when I last met my cousins," Ron said with wide eyes.

"Thanks," Shirley said, giggling.
