Love's Perfect Match

"You're still acting tough, huh? I'd like to see how long you can hold it up." Jasmine's chest was heaving. She was livid.

"You'll see if it's an act soon enough." Callum's eyes glinted with murder.

"In any case, you guys are locked. Let's see how you escape." She crossed her arms and chuckled.

"Too early to celebrate, Jasmine."

Callum's threat managed to scare Jasmine for a moment, but it lost its effect after a while. "I used to like you, but now, I'm disappointed. Since you want to be with her, you guys will suffer as I did."

She cackled like a mad witch finally succeeding in her devious spellcasting. Just then, thunder roared. Jasmine looked at the ominous sky and frowned slightly. "It's going to rain soon. Time for me to go, then. Have fun, you two." With that, she got into her car and drove off.

The couple exchanged a look, both having their own ideas to escape.

Elspeth tugged on Callum's sleeve as she asked, "So, what's your plan?"

"Don't worry. We'll be fine." Callum patted her head.
