Letters [COMPLETED]

Chapter 24 - Not Meant

THIRD PERSON'S POV

As Lisa planned Irene did not think twice but to do whatever Lisa instructed in her letter. There's a ticket as well so she didn't need to book herself even the hotel room had been reserved 10 months ago.

The moment she arrived at the hotel room she decided to take a shower to freshen up. It took her almost 45 minutes before she finished. When she went to check her luggage and tried to open the built-in digital lock she couldn't open it.

"This is strange. I never change my passcode. It should be her birthday."
She did second and third attempts but to no avail. Until she gave in. The problem is she does not have any clothes to use unless she would force the luggage to open.

"Oh, no. This is my favorite luggage. I can't destroy it. I need to ask the front desk for assistance. Maybe they have some tools that I can use."

She then called someone at the front desk to ask for some tools she could use to open her jammed luggage's lock. However, she's not good at English and does now speak German too. The front desk officer and she had trouble understanding her concern so she forget about it and decided to just go down the lobby with only a bathrobe wrapped around her petite body.

"Aigooo, this is crazy why didn't I study English during my high school days. It won't be this difficult if I can communicate with them. I don't speak English and speaking German is very hard."

She peaked in first outside the room to check if no one is around. When the hallway is clear she then moved and ran towards the elevator. She was running like crazy, embarrassed of what she's doing but she needs it to be done so she can change her clothes. She covered her face with her hands so she's not able to see that someone is about to get out of the elevator.

Irene's body collided with another person. Everything slowed down. She only sees the person's side cheek since she's wearing a bucket hat. The person is as shocked as her. Her phone slipped from her hand and flew up then hit the floor hard. Irene's in a rush to care about the person.

"Fuck!" The other person cursed as she picked up her phone and checked if it's working.

"I'm so sorry." Irene bowed and asked her forgiveness however the elevator then closed before the woman even face her. "Oh no, I really cause big trouble. What is wrong today?" Irene asked herself. When she suddenly heard a familiar giggle next to her.

"What are you doing? Oh God and you're wearing only a bathrobe, Baechu!" Lisa's eyes were about to pop out.

"Lalice? Why do you suddenly appear out of nowhere?" Irene braced herself anxious that Lisa saw her in that kind of situation.

"I'm sorry I was a bit busy. So have you checked my letter?" Lisa apologized.

"Yeah, and I am actually about to go to the place however something came up. My luggage cannot be opened." Irene explained.

"Maybe you did change the passcode."

"No, it's always your birthday. I always use your birthday when making a password or passcode."

"Wow, really? I uhm, well I kinda knew it. I also use your birthday for security purposes." Lisa was proud to say it.

"That's a tie," Irene commented.

"Yeah."

"Wait are you real or you're just my imagination?" Irene asked.

"You already know what I am Baechu. I told you to let go. You are making it harder for yourself." Lisa's expression turned sad.

"No, no, Lis. No, I don't want to forget you." Irene panicked.

"You are not going to forget me. You just needed to let go and accept the truth, Baechu." Lisa caressed Irene's small face.
