Anything For Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 29

Chapter 29 Applying Sunscreen

“Isn’t this a bit unusual, even for you?”

Realizing that he had yet to introduce Sophie to his friends, Tristan said, “You guys carry on. I’ll bring a friend over tonight.”

“Is your friend male or female?”

“You’ll find out when the time comes.”

Sophie and Ysabelle were queuing up to buy tickets when Tristan and Felix arrived at the water park.

The line was rather long due to it being a weekend, so Sophie was scrolling through her phone to kill time.

“Uncle Tristan? What are you doing here?” Ysabelle asked when she saw Tristan coming over. If I recall, he hates coming to childish places like this!

“I saw your Instagram post, so I decided to drop by.”

Noticing that Sophie was sweating from the hot weather, Tristan continued, “Come here, you two. Felix, go take their place in the queue.”

Felix then swapped places with them while Tristan led them to a shady tree.

“You girls can just wait here until Felix gets the tickets.” Tristan’s casual-looking outfit made him seem a few years younger. That, combined with his already handsome face, got a lot of girls looking his way.

Someone selling straw hats happened to pass them by, so Tristan bought them one each and helped Sophie put it on.

As Sophie had really fair skin, it was starting to turn red from exposure to the hot sun.

“Do you have sunscreen on?”

“Nope.”

She didn’t like applying sunscreen because of how uncomfortable it felt on her skin.

Tristan then borrowed a bottle of sunscreen from Ysabelle and squeezed some of it onto his palm.

He was about to apply it on Sophie when she grabbed his arm.

“What are you doing?”

“Hold still.” Tristan ignored her response and continued applying the sunscreen on her face.

Sophie found herself burning bright red when he gently ran his fingers over her cheeks.

Eek! This guy is really…

Even Ysabelle was stupefied by what she had just witnessed. Since when did Uncle Tristan become so caring and gentle?

After applying sunscreen on her face, Tristan squeeze some of it directly onto her arm and gently rubbed it all over.

Felix’s jaw dropped when he returned with the entrance tickets.

What has gotten into Tristan today? I’ve never seen him give a girl such treatment before! I bet nobody would ever believe me if I told them Tristan personally applied sunscreen on someone!

“Here, I bought the tickets! Let’s go!”

Felix then grabbed Ysabelle’s hand and started dragging her away.

“What’s going on here? Has my uncle Tristan gone crazy from the heat or what?” she asked in confusion.

“Maybe!” Felix replied. He wasn’t really sure about the relationship between Tristan and Sophie, so he didn’t want to comment on it any further.

“Thanks…”

Sophie felt as if her body was burning up from his touch.

“Let’s go.”

The two of them then made their way toward the entrance, which had a boat on a huge water slide.

“How about the four of us sit together for this ride?” Ysabelle suggested.

“No. You and I are going to take a separate row,” Felix said while dragging her away.

The next thing he knew, Ysabelle had stomped on his foot with all of her might.

“Ow! What was that for?” Felix shouted in pain.

“For not minding your own d*mned business!”

Has Uncle Tristan taken a liking to Sophie? Isn’t he a little too old for her? I mustn’t let Sophie fall for him!

As Tristan and Sophie had already taken the row behind them, Ysabelle had no choice but to take the one in front with Felix.
