She felt faint and feverish both at the same time as she continued to look at him in an attempt to work out if her mind was playing tricks on her. Prolonging her stare confirmed it wasnot.
She'd recognize himanywhere.
Yes, he was tall - six feet four to be exact - and still gorgeous with his Hollywood good looks, muscular physique and shiny blonde hair. But this guy wasdeadly.
He had the ability to crush your heart and kill everything inside you that hadmeaning.
Trina had first-hand knowledge of that experience and while she might not have seen him in well over ten years she remembered exactly what it felt like. She recalled in full details the last time she saw him – Brad Henderson – and her blood boiled at thememory.
The shocking truth that Brad was in Hawaii too slammed into her full force, and it became too much for her soul tobear.
Neil said something that made Brad look ahead and that was when he saw Trina too. She watched him stop so abruptly in his tracks that the person behind him bumped into him. Then he stood there and watched her. The shadow of alarm washing over hisface.
"Trina, are you okay?" Mandyasked.
Trina opened her mouth to answer, but no words came out. She looked at Mandy, who could now see something was definitely wrong withher.
