59° CONCURSO DE REDACCIÓN DE HISTORIAS. / ¡Viaje improvisado!

Emily and Benjamín are a young couple, dating for about 4 years. They are both journalists and like adventures, the outdoors, and living life to the fullest. On the weekend they had planned to go to the beach, a simple round trip. As they head out to the beach, they hear on the news that due to the approach of a tropical storm the beaches are closed. Benjamín laughs and looking at Emily changes course.
Emily asks him where they are going, that wasn't the way back home, to which Ben replies - Who said we were going back home? Today we are going to escape, I have a surprise for you...

This was your story, now it's my turn to tell us what was on Benjamin's mind! I invite, @senehasa, @aaliarubab and @josepha.

Benjamin looked at Emily and said, "Today, let's go to the place where you wanted to go for a long time."

Emily asked, "Casino?"

Benjamin smiled and nodded.

Emily said, "Oh, I am scared. I don't know if we would lose and our budget ruined."

"Everyone feels the same."

Benjamin and Emily were in the restaurant of the Casino Royal Resort and were listening to the conversation of two girls on the adjacent table as if they were not hearing anything.

These two girls were agents of the resort. Both were beautiful. They must be around twenty-five years of age and were talking to each other as if they would get up from here and go to the casino to play.

Benjamin and Emily finished their breakfast and looked at those two girls from the corner of their eyes. They probably used to trap prey for the casino in this way. Benjamin and Emily then left. The resort's swimming pool is near the restaurant. Couples keep swimming in the water here from morning to evening.

Benjamin and Emily got up from there and were sunbathing in a relaxed posture, lying on the benches. Even at this time, three couples were inside the water. Two couples were sitting with their legs hanging in the water. All were lost in their own world, oblivious to the world.

Emily looked at Benjamin and said, “Will you keep looking at them, or do you want to go to the casino as well?”

"Yes, yes, why not? Don’t feel bad. None of them is as beautiful as you.” Benjamin laughed, but she understood that he was flirting.

Without showing any reaction on his face, she said, “Okay, now we have to go. And yes, we will not drink anything in the casino bar.”

Benjamin laughed, “In the name of God. If I have ever drunk anything other than your intoxicating eyes in my life, then tell me.”

This time, his formula worked on Emily. She blushed a little and smiled softly to show her gratitude to Benjamin.

After a while, both of them moved towards the casino, although the view of the pool was still very captivating. Not only the clear water, the lush green trees, and the pleasant air, but above all, there was the fun that was clearly visible on the faces of the tourists.

While climbing the escalators towards the casino, a newlywed couple was walking ahead of them. The girl, who must have been barely twenty years old, was wearing shorts. So short that it was impossible to wear anything shorter than that. Benjamin saw Emily observing his movements. her long legs were looking even longer in the short shorts. It felt a little strange. Benjamin smiled.

Both of them took tokens worth 2000 dollars from the casino counter. However, Emily did not agree. She said, Emily said, "What will you do by buying coins? We just want to watch and then leave."

Benjamin smiled.

Emily continued, “This is gambling. What will you do if you get addicted to it?” We also have to pay the installments for our house.

Benjamin assured her, “One does not get addicted in one day. Then why shall we come to the casino every day and gamble money? Today is the first and last day.

Benjamin said, "When we don't play the game in the casino, then what is the point of watching the casino? This will be incomplete."

After that, the woman sitting at the reception pasted a strip of paper on their wrist. The name of the casino was written on it, and the date was mentioned. Now they had to enter the casino by showing this strip.

Finally, both of them started walking towards the casino tables. It was evening, and the bright lights of the casino were shining far and wide. It had become a very interesting and vibrant scene there.

The casino was a different world. Every person here was full of enthusiasm to win money. People were entering the main hall with big dreams. Every person was hoping that he would win millions of dollars tonight.

The game was going on on more than a dozen tables. The machine was spinning, and a ball started revolving above the machine in a circular circle. Benjamin put a 10 dollar coin on a number. The machine kept spinning.

The ball kept revolving above it, and then when the machine stopped, the number on which the ball stopped was not their number. The girl who was playing the game picked up all the plastic coins and kept them in the drawer of her table. Emily asked, "What will happen now?"

The girl who was handling the game there said, "The game is over. Now keep the coin to play another game."

They tried one more number and lost again but they were not willing to lose more than a hundred dollars on one table so they moved to another table. There Emily placed a coin on the number she liked, the machine started spinning, the ball revolved around the machine, and stopped on a particular number. That number did not match that Emily had chosen.

This time they did not ask anyone but they knew another hundred dollars had gone. In this way, they kept on losing money by going to one table after another.

They had coins worth one thousand dollars left. they went to the 9th table and played for five hundred hundred dollars.

He pointed towards the rules on the board hanging on the table with his finger and told us, “Here the game is played for a minimum of one thousand dollars.”

Emily looked at Benjamin and she took five hundred dollars coins from his hand and added them to the five hundred with Bencoinss coins.

This time it was like make or break to bet one thousand dollars. Emily was sure that in this game, there was only loss and almost no chance of winning.

Benjamin said, "Now that we are here so this is going to be our last bet in the game."

They were expecting to lose. But this time the girl sitting at the table said, "You have won two thousand seven hundred and fifty dollars."

They were happy. and then Emily said, "Give us the money."

She said, "If you play more, you are welcome. You can win even more."

Emily said, "We do not want to play. We want cash."

Now she did not insist they play but she picked up a form and filled something on that form and marked the amount as $2750.

Within two minutes they were on the token counter and paid immediately. They counted and came outside after looking at the casino's gaming room for the last time.

While returning, and passing they saw that there was tiredness and disappointment on the faces of the players coming out of the casino. Emily thought they were lucky but the casino was the ultimate winner.
