Her heart hammered against her ribs. She saw him, tanned and smiling, gliding through the turquoise water. It was an image that flooded her mind. It made her want to… to follow him, wherever he went.

"Visit every continent." She closed her eyes, imagining him exploring ancient ruins, trekking through jungles, and experiencing the world. A giggle escaped her. She’d never considered such wanderlust for him.

She clutched the list to her chest, her fingers tracing the neat handwriting. He was such a wonderful mystery, and this list was the key.
