Love Amidst the Flames

Chap 77

After a hearty lunch, the group decided to continue exploring the beauty of Samui. They got in the car and headed towards the island's famous beaches, where the sand was soft and white, and the water shimmered like emerald. When the car stopped, the refreshing sea breeze embraced them once again, and the gentle sound of the waves, like a soft invitation, played like a lullaby in the vast space.

· "We can't miss this beach, can we?" Charlotte laughed, her eyes shining under the sunlight, looking out at the waves gently kissing the shore. "Look at that, this beach is amazing!"

Sun, always the most enthusiastic in the group, jumped out of the car first.

· "This is really incredible! Who could resist such white sand?" He danced around for a moment, then turned to the group. "Who wants to swim?"

· "Definitely, I'm not passing this up!" Dee replied, just as excited. "I've got my swimsuit ready!"

· "Alright, no one mess up my beach!" Marima teased, waving her hand at everyone, but her eyes were gleaming with joy. "The view here is so beautiful, I just want to stand here forever."

The group ran down to the beach together, laughter echoing in the air. They ran along the shoreline, occasionally stopping to take photos of the breathtaking scenery. Engfa and Charlotte walked side by side, occasionally exchanging loving glances, as if they could understand each other's feelings without needing to speak.

· "Engfa, I think we've had a truly wonderful day," Charlotte said, slowing down as they passed by some rustic fishing boats along the shore.

Engfa smiled, holding Charlotte's hand, her gaze gentle.

· "Yes, everything is really beautiful and peaceful. Thank you for being here with me on this trip."

Charlotte turned to her, giving her a warm smile.

· "Thank you for bringing me here. I think we've had an unforgettable day."

After they had played enough, the group got back in the car to continue their journey, heading to visit other temples. They stopped at small temples hidden among lush trees, with pathways leading to serene courtyards. Each temple had its own unique beauty, with walls covered in moss, Buddha statues carefully maintained, and small gardens filled with flowers and plants. The atmosphere here only enhanced the sense of peace within each person.

· "This is Wat Plai Laem, famous for its golden Buddha statue, and the surrounding deities," Engfa explained as they entered the temple grounds. "A lot of people come here to pray because it's very sacred."

· "Wow, these statues are so impressive!" Tina exclaimed, her voice full of wonder. "I'm sure there are many fascinating stories behind each one."

· "That's right," Engfa nodded, smiling. "Each statue has its own story, though not everyone knows it. But the most important thing is the serenity it brings."

Marima, always curious and eager to learn new things, stepped closer to the Buddha statue. "I really feel at peace standing here. It's like it washes away all the worries inside me."

· "Exactly, all the worries and troubles vanish when you're in this space," Sun said, once again feeling the tranquility in his heart. "It feels like I can find a bit of peace in this chaotic world."

The group was silent for a moment, savoring the beauty of the temple and the surrounding space. The sound of temple bells rang again, making the atmosphere even more serene, as if inviting everyone into a peaceful world, where only moments of stillness and tranquility existed.
