Marriage Getaway 2

Chapter 3: Jai

Chris took Melody to a nice restaurant. As they ordered their food...

"Ok, Mel. This is how the date starts. Looking presentable and inciting a nice conversation. I'll start first: I look for a woman to be free, like being able to hang out with family and friends, to fall in love and whatnot? I'm a martial arts trainer."

"Is this make believe?"

"Yes."

"I look for a man who's driven, who knows what he wants out of life. And to support me and my dreams. While doing so, he keeps his balance within him, family, friends and everything else."

"It's all about being confident, Melody. You got it, and you play your cards right, you win the game."

Melody smiled as they enjoyed their meals.

Edenia

Jade was on her way to Queen Sindel's palace when she visited her old home. There, she reflected back to her childhood. She was given away by her parents as a tribute to Shao Khan's conquest of Edenia. Her thought were interrupted by Sindel. There was a man beside her, a well built Edenian.

"Jade. Are you feeling ok?"

"My queen! I'm sorry. I was..."

"I know. I'm sure you know Jai, my personal aide."

"Oh yes.

"A pleasure to meet you, Jade."

"Why are you here?" Asked Sindel?.

"It's Melody. Chris and I were talking and wished to help her. Perhaps you can get the one, Jai."

Jade gives Jai Melody's swimsuit photo. His eyes widened. "She's beautiful!"

"Would you like to meet her?"

"Very much so."

"The only thing I ask is if you are respectful to her. She's a kind, driven woman who's well respected throughout Earthrealm, Outworld and here in Edenia. Next, know who the parents are. Understood?"

"Yes, Jade."

"My husband, Chris, is out with Melody to help prepare for her first date. I will take you to Earthrealm to meet her."

Jai nodded in agreement. His heart was pounding. He would meet the sexy soldier Melody Jones!
