If Gerald thought Kimera was being too clingy, she was actually worse than

that. She had just paid the security guard of Gerald's condo to turn a blind eye

and disable the alarms while she broke in. Kimera was hell bent on ruining his

latest fling. After a few hours, she could turn up nothing. She thought about

getting her best friend Marjareth Louidore to plant recording devices in the

condo. If only she could get rid of all his women, she'd be able to make Gerald

love her with no distractions. No one comes between her and Gerald. Not

anyone then. Not anyone now.

Gerald spent one more night at the villa after Sarah left. He preoccupied

himself by riding around the place to forget her but every place he went, he

could envision her, smell her and remember her smile. Though Sarah never

actually smiled at him, he would accidentally catch her smiling when she

thought he wasn't looking. He thought her smile to be the most dazzling smile

in the whole world. He cursed himself for failing to reach the chopper in time.

By sundown, Gerald got hold of a bottle of wine and brought it with him to the

mango grove. Once again, he saw her standing in front the mango tree as he

did before, and remembered how perfectly she fit him when he kissed her

instead of tasting the fruit she was offering. After a while, he felt tired and

started heading to the villa. He had called Mrs. De Villa and told her that he

was ready to leave. He rested in his room for a while then he started packing

his things. It was almost three o' clock in the morning and he still hadn't slept.

He tried a sleeping pill but only felt drowsy, he had no desire to down a few

more. He only managed an hour of sleep, from which he was woken by the

sound of a crowing rooster.

Elle served him an early breakfast and helped him arranged his luggage. The

chopper arrived just in time. It only took about 15 minutes to get to the airport.

From there, his entourage picked him up and took him to the hotel. He had

them arrange a trip back to New York on Thursday. He'd be safe back home

by then and he'll never have to think about Sarah Corleone again.
