(Look out Cain!
The Jaguar snarled, fiercely charging at the party of treasure hunters deep in the jungles of Brazil)
Cain Mason was a 29-year-old professional journalist who enjoyed ATVs, soccer, tennis and boating, also restoring old cars...
He is stern, honest, but can also be very mean and a bit impatience at times...Growing up in Brazil, he finished school and then left academia...
Physically, Cain was in pretty good shape. He is tall with brown skin, black hair and brown eyes...211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkT0MOy55c
(Raised in an upper class and afluent neighborhood, his mother died when he was young, he was then raised by his father)
"Glenda?"211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqLTVeeH3w
You are so stupid!211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFhvWewbaW
"Cain, Glenda exclaimed, "Why are you so darn rude and impatience all the time? I went to the parts store but the clerk said that they didn't have the right steering wheel column you needed for that old assed Ford model T..."
"Glenda, didn't you go to the other auto parts place, the one across the railway yard on the corner?Glenda exclaimed, no, because I'm not your personal slave, I'm your girlfriend!"
"Cain, I've got better things to do besides running all over town sweating and searching for your dumb old things...211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1CaJ0O5Nd
(Glenda is 4 years older than him and works as a Fashion designer)211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgkFiZdVLU
Cain's best friend is a professional sports analyst named Evan Cameron, they have a very good friendship, he also hangs around with Fatima Parks and Alonzo Seer...211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31gsZeJDyL
(They enjoy spreading fake news on Facebook together, Fatima is a pretty, confident woman he has known since childhood, she is a hotel receptionist)211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItyQCjT78Q
"Oh, come on, lighten up Glenda, you know your boyfriend has a love jones for old cars."211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5igSpvv7Xl
Don't you Cain?211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfhCEvAS2R
Aww, shut up now Evan, you're just so jealous of my many natural talents that you don't possess and wish you had.211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQOK5npL6M
Talent, cried Evan, I have more talent in my little, bitty pinky then anyone you have ever known...
(First Cain, then Evan begin laughing and slap each other a high five.)211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAJRO7eM9B
"Hey!"211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GwJIwYI11
What are you chumps doing? "Fellows, I bring good tidings!" I bought beer, wine and some Spanish peanuts from the party store around the way...
Fatima!211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7AYOzfPSW
Cain said, you're a sight for sore eyes and thirsty throats...
(Fatima reminded him of his dear mother, Elsa Aute Mason who died in a tragic car accident years ago)211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbiSLJv4UIb
Yet he still idolise her memory and person...
Hey dummy, yelled Cain, do you still have that Facebook treasure map to the island where a famous pirate was supposed to have buried chests of gold?211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLrdFr58BK
Yeah, replied Evan but it's lining the bottom of my pet lovebirds's cage at the moment...211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnaNXIpJ9j
"What!"211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoaNyoqwVT
Cain said, did you even try to verify the real location, lattitude and enclosed longitude of the island?
"Naw!"211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvisTUc6gwP
Cain, it was a stupid, fake map that someone sent us out of revenge since we're always pranking people on Facebook.211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZ0mwqKlQQ
Yeah, said Fatima, now everybody just chill out and enjoy our cold beer, wine and Spanish peanuts...
"Hey, stupid," Glenda's voice snapped him out of his reverie. "Evan, why did you put the treasure map in your dumb ass bird cage? The one to the island where the famous pirate supposedly buried chests of gold?"211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxPWbXcHgj
Cain grinned. "Yeah," "He is a dumb ass!"211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2obCgxsyrd
And so they sat there—a motley crew of friends. Fatima reminded Cain of his mother, and he wondered what Elsa would have thought of this wild adventure.211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU923ryazrq
"Remember when we were kids?" Cain said, looking at Fatima. "We used to explore the old ruins near our neighborhood."211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQIXxB4dmn
Fatima nodded. "Those were simpler times," she said softly.211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSG4gcfKJ3
Evan leaned back against a chair. "And now we're chasing pirate gold," he mused. "What a life!"211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTffQQOfWCG
Cain's mind raced with possibilities. The treasure map might be fake, but what if it wasn't? What if they stumbled upon something truly extraordinary?211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlEF7CWl6n
"Tomorrow," Cain declared, raising his beer bottle, "we follow that map to the letter."211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJmp6seegj
Glenda rolled her eyes but clinked her bottle against his. "Fine," she said. "But if we end up empty-handed, you owe me a romantic dinner."211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IcIJPQjwA
Cain chuckled. Glenda's fiery spirit was part of what drew him to her—the perfect counterbalance to his stern demeanor.211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6I4HL5G6nk
As the night settled around them, they laughed, sharing stories. The kind that friends like to share. And ahh... somewhere in all that laughter and camaraderie, Cain felt—a thread linking him to both the past and the uncertain future.211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6N3Y4bM5h
