The Seychelles
Every married couple experiences a lull in their relationship. Mona and Tyler decide to take a romantic vacation to reignite the flame to the Seychelles. Tyler has chosen the location, a secluded home deep in the jungle but near the beach-- a perfect space to unwind his worry-wart wife. Mona is relaxing on the beach with her husband when she sees a beautiful brunette woman walking down the beach in a gauzy sundress. The sun spotlights her as the wind tosses her silky auburn hair and blows her sundress back revealing a goddess-like figure. Mona looks at her own body and quietly compares, then glances at Tyler in the hopes that he doesn't see this breathtaking woman. She catches Mona's stare and Mona quickly smiles and looks away, and just then she stops walking. She sets her towel down in the sand, right in front of the couple, and prepares to sun bathe. Mona scrunches her brow. There are a million spots on the beach, why must she choose the spot right in front of us?
