Kapitel 21: Lunch Date VII
Magnus couldn't help but feel a sense of accomplishment as he witnessed the genuine amazement sparkling in Sabrina's eyes upon discovering the indoor basketball court. Eager to share more of the mansion's unique features, Magnus decided to reveal an additional surprise that would surely leave Sabrina even more enthralled.
With a mischievous grin, Magnus guided Sabrina toward a section of the floor adjacent to the basketball court. The anticipation on Sabrina's face was palpable as Magnus unveiled the special adjustments in the basketball court, demonstrating how the basket could be moved according to the players' preferences. Sabrina's eyes widened with delight at the ingenuity of the design, appreciating the attention to detail that made the mansion truly exceptional.
But Magnus had more in store for Sabrina. Leading her further into the mansion's depths, they arrived at a room that took Sabrina's breath away—the intricately designed bowling arena. The attention to detail in the room was remarkable, from the gleaming polished lanes to the vibrant hues of the bowling balls neatly arranged in racks.
As Magnus gestured towards the pristine lanes, a mischievous glint in his eyes, he posed a question that would add another layer of excitement to their exploration. "Would you like to play?" Magnus asked, his tone filled with genuine enthusiasm.
Sabrina, who had never played bowling before, felt a surge of excitement at the prospect of trying something new. Her eyes sparkled with a mixture of curiosity and anticipation. She looked at Magnus, a shy smile playing on her lips, and admitted, "I've never played bowling before."
Magnus, always ready to share his passions, responded with an encouraging smile. "No worries, Sabrina. Bowling is a fantastic game, and I'd be delighted to teach you."
Sabrina's excitement grew as Magnus selected two bowling balls—one for himself and one for her. Walking her through the basics of the game, Magnus demonstrated the proper stance, the art of aiming, and the controlled release of the ball. Sabrina absorbed his instructions with keen interest, her eyes focused on Magnus's every move.
As they approached the bowling lane, Magnus handed Sabrina the sleek bowling ball. "Give it a try," he encouraged. Sabrina took a deep breath, the thrill of the unknown coursing through her veins. With a graceful swing, she released the ball down the lane.
As Sabrina's first bowling attempt went slightly off course, she turned toward Magnus with a hint of embarrassment in her eyes. Without missing a beat, Magnus closed the distance between them, wrapping his arms around her in a comforting embrace. Sabrina could feel the warmth of his presence, and a subtle yet exhilarating rush surged through her as Magnus guided her hand, demonstrating the proper grip once more.
In that intimate moment, Magnus's closeness had a calming effect on Sabrina's nerves. The pounding of her heart, initially fueled by embarrassment, gradually subsided. Magnus's patient guidance instilled a newfound confidence in Sabrina, who refocused her attention on the task at hand.
Taking a deep breath, Sabrina steadied herself and approached the bowling lane once again. With Magnus's advice echoing in her mind, she released the ball with newfound determination. This time, the ball traveled down the lane with precision, knocking down eight pins.
A radiant smile illuminated Sabrina's face, and her eyes sparkled with a mix of accomplishment and joy. The unexpected success took Magnus by surprise, leaving him momentarily stunned. Sabrina's genuine happiness brought a delightful twist to the game.
Magnus, caught off guard by Sabrina's prowess, couldn't help but stare at her in awe. Her infectious joy and the genuine smile on her face had a mesmerizing effect, momentarily stealing his breath away. To divert her attention from his stunned expression, Magnus playfully praised her achievement.
"Well done, Sabrina! That was impressive for a first-timer," he exclaimed, his voice laced with admiration. Magnus's compliment shifted the focus back to the joy of the game, and Sabrina's laughter filled the room, creating an atmosphere of shared delight. In that exchange, the bowling alley became a space where laughter, connection, and a burgeoning camaraderie blossomed between Magnus and Sabrina.
As Sabrina continued to bowl, she found her rhythm, gradually improving with each attempt. Her determination and enthusiasm were evident as she knocked down pins with increasing precision. On her fifth attempt, to her surprise and Magnus's delight, she achieved a striking success. The resounding sound of the pins toppling echoed through the basement, and Sabrina couldn't contain her joy.
Seeing Sabrina genuinely enjoying herself, Magnus couldn't help but be captivated by her infectious spirit. With a twinkle in his eye, he proposed a friendly match, suggesting a best-of-three series with each round consisting of three bowls without spares. Sabrina's eyes lit up at the idea, and she readily agreed to the challenge.
Magnus, wanting to create a more personalized and intimate experience, took charge of adjusting the scoreboard settings. He discreetly ordered his servants to refrain from entering the basement floors during their time there, emphasizing the need for privacy and a quiet atmosphere. Magnus wanted their moments together to be undisturbed, a space where they could enjoy each other's company without any external interruptions.
With the scoreboard ready and the rules set, Magnus and Sabrina prepared for their friendly bowling match. The dimly lit basement, adorned with the echoes of their laughter and the clatter of bowling balls, became their private haven. As they engaged in the spirited competition, the atmosphere buzzed with camaraderie and a growing connection.
The basement echoed with the satisfying sounds of strikes and spares as Magnus and Sabrina engaged in their friendly bowling match. Magnus, with a seasoned hand, kicked off the game with a banger start, securing a strike and two consecutive nines. Sabrina, matching his enthusiasm, managed to score an impressive eight and two nines in response.
As the second match unfolded, Magnus continued to showcase his prowess with two more strikes and a nine. Sabrina, determined to catch up, answered back with two nines and a striking success of her own. The competition remained fierce, and the atmosphere was charged with excitement.
In the third and final match, Magnus delivered a dazzling performance by securing three consecutive strikes, leaving a resounding impact. Sabrina, refusing to back down, responded with two strikes and a nine, showcasing her growing skill on the bowling lane.
Ultimately, after an exhilarating series of matches, Magnus emerged as the ultimate winner. The basement, witness to their friendly rivalry, resonated with the shared joy of the game. Laughter, cheers, and the clatter of bowling balls painted a picture of an enjoyable afternoon, where competition was secondary to the connection that continued to deepen between Magnus and Sabrina.
