(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...233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKu2NoucvRe
(Raised in an upper class and afluent neighborhood, his mother died when he was young, he was then raised by his father)
"Glenda?"233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMZHlZYdIA
You are so stupid!233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ209TL1jdAG
"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...233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfq3Rpv3ZEc
(Glenda is 4 years older than him and works as a Fashion designer)233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi85FV8s8uz
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...233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENHCqlv4ZX
(They enjoy spreading fake news on Facebook together, Fatima is a pretty, confident woman he has known since childhood, she is a hotel receptionist)233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2NLX4GAE9
"Oh, come on, lighten up Glenda, you know your boyfriend has a love jones for old cars."233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhBcHmJ0Jw
Don't you Cain?233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7WDRw0U8k
Aww, shut up now Evan, you're just so jealous of my many natural talents that you don't possess and wish you had.233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5pCwybcFP
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.)233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMfF0isyLP
"Hey!"233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cBwdyJfq8
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!233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuuXNIo35i
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)233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6GgTS3HkP
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?233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71rGpzD1P9
Yeah, replied Evan but it's lining the bottom of my pet lovebirds's cage at the moment...233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahNuWyE5B4
"What!"233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsn8xhRiIrz
Cain said, did you even try to verify the real location, lattitude and enclosed longitude of the island?
"Naw!"233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxagCT4hDJ9
Cain, it was a stupid, fake map that someone sent us out of revenge since we're always pranking people on Facebook.233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWJx2X2sZL
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?"233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOp2slX9J7l
Cain grinned. "Yeah," "He is a dumb ass!"233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0gUxGtKDr
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.233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwX6Fx8c2qm
"Remember when we were kids?" Cain said, looking at Fatima. "We used to explore the old ruins near our neighborhood."233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9ZxBPGKYY
Fatima nodded. "Those were simpler times," she said softly.233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2FtvUfqh1
Evan leaned back against a chair. "And now we're chasing pirate gold," he mused. "What a life!"233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YDTB6qSfQ
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?233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorv9Fg2h35
"Tomorrow," Cain declared, raising his beer bottle, "we follow that map to the letter."233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLm3FiBOKFh
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."233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCnvtFi0P2
Cain chuckled. Glenda's fiery spirit was part of what drew him to her—the perfect counterbalance to his stern demeanor.233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFUCVtU47I
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.233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkwYgnT998
