Tristan, Zhen-Zhen, their parents, the elders, and other cousins ate breakfast together before leaving the camping site. Zhen-Zhen was unusually very quiet today.
Grandpa Lu also noticed that his granddaughter-in-law was sitting far away from her husband. Tristan also looked like he was lost in his thoughts today.
'What happened to these two? Just yesterday they were inseparable and always acting sweet towards each other. But now, they looked like a couple who got into a fight.' Grandpa Lu couldn't help but wonder as he observed his grandson and his wife.
Alice and Thomas were sitting in the middle of Zhen-Zhen and Tristan. Zhen-Zhen was really avoiding Tristan. She was also quiet because she didn't want to mingle with them.
If she talked then she might give away her other self or personality to them. She couldn't afford to let the others see the changes in her. All she did was nod, smile, and eat.
FaMo was just watching Zhen-Zhen. He had no appetite today. He could only sigh because of frustration. Zhen-Zhen was still not in her usual self.
He rembered last night Zhen-Zhen asked him to transform to his original form. FaMo couldn't believe that she was asking him to do that.
'Is she planning to scare all the people on the camping site?'
He tried to ask Zhen-Zhen if he could just fuse with her body so that he would stop being a cat in front of her but she refused. FaMo didn't understand why.
So FaMo explained to her that he could not do her request of shifting himself into his dragon form. People would be scared if they saw FaMo. Zhen-Zhen finally agreed to let FaMo stay as a cat for the ti being.
'Even her preferences changed. She liked in my cat form before, but now she didn't like it.' ( T - T )
'Bring back my sweet Zhen-Zhen please!' FaMo was silently wishing in his mind right now.
anwhile, Tristan also stole glances with Zhen-Zhen from ti to ti. He was just observing her in his seat. But Zhen-Zhen didn't glance at him even once.
Just like FaMo, Tristan felt like crying. Zhen-Zhen was avoiding him and acting very cold towards him. He didn't know how he would coax his wife. Honestly, she looked frightening with her serious expression whenever she would look at him.
'I think I have to talk to her once we are ho,' Tristan said to himself.
They just finished eating when staff approached Grandpa Alejandro to say sothing.
"Sir, there's sothing wrong with the target shooting area. We need to install another target. I think soone burned and destroyed one of our targets. We just saw it today." The staff reported to Grandpa Alejandro.
"Huh? What happened? Who did it?" Grandpa Alejandro beca upset when he heard that.
FaMo, Tristan, and Blake automatically averted their gaze to Zhen-Zhen who looked like she didn't hear it and she was not affected at all.
Blake was thinking that maybe Lillie already knew what happened because he saw Lillie and Andrew together in the shooting area last night.
anwhile, Tristan was suspecting that his wife did it. But he dismissed that thought because he rembered that Andrew was with her so there's no way she would use her power in front of Andrew.
'Wait! I can't accept this! I waited for her but it turned out she's with Andrew.' Tristan frowned at that thought.
'Were they together last night? If they saw Hannah and in the forest then they should've approached us! Why did Andrew leave together with my wife? I really need to talk to her about last night.'
FaMo, on the other hand, knew that it was Zhen-Zhen who burned the target in the target shooting area. He even witnessed how she burned the phone on her hand.
'I thought she would not use her power as she promised Tristan. But she blatantly used it last night. What if other people saw her? Sigh. Zhen-Zhen had beco dangerous and reckless.' FaMo shook his head helplessly.
Then they heard Grandpa Alejandro saying to the staff to install a new one and just forget who did it. Besides, only one target was destroyed. Since he was in a good mood this morning, Grandpa Alejandro would just let the culprit off today.
Everyone was preparing to leave the dining area when Jake noticed sothing about Zhen-Zhen.
"Eh, Lillie? Your eye color is black, not blue? Are you wearing a contact lens?" Jake blurted out of the blue.
Tristan and others glanced in Zhen-Zhen's direction, checking her eyes. Indeed, her blue eyes turned into black.
'What happened to my wife's blue eyes?' Tristan looked at her, puzzled.
Zhen-Zhen frowned, 'Jeez… This guy has a blabbering mouth.'
Then she flashed her sweetest 'fake' smile and said, "Yeah, I used a contact lens today."
"But your blue eyes are more beautiful than black," Jake couldn't help but express his opinion.
"Oh, I like the color black. I look fiercer and alluring." Zhen-Zhen stated matter-of-factly.
Tristan: 'No! I like the Blue one!'
FaMo: 'No! I like the Blue one!'
Both Tristan and FaMo had the sa thought in mind. Jake just smiled sheepishly and scratched his face. Even he, himself, noticed that Lillie was acting very strange today.
'Is she acting like this because of Tristan and Hannah? Hmmm, it's possible.' Jake answered his own question.
Soon, it was ti to leave the camping site. Everyone said goodbye to each other. Tristan would drop Alice and Thomas at their ho first.
When they reached yer's house, Zhen-Zhen also got out of the car. Tristan and FaMo followed her, thinking that she was just accompanying Alice and Thomas until they entered the house.
When Zhen-Zhen noticed FaMo and Tristan following her behind, she ca to a halt and faced them.
"You can go ho now," Zhen-Zhen said to Tristan.
"Huh? What about you? Do you want to stay with Ma and Pa for a while? Do you want to fetch you later?" Tristan asked her.
With her sharp dark eyes, Zhen-Zhen gave him a aningful smile.
