83. Soft Opening

The next morning we all make it to the spa. People just run around like crazy. I get stuck in the massage area answering questions all morning. I make an escape before lunch only to get pulled into the spa to answer questions. Then I get out of there and make a run for the packages office.

I run in and all the way to the back. I don't even say hi to Elek or anyone standing there. I go to the back between the wine and the wall and lay on the floor. I stretch out and stare at the ceiling.

Elek comes back after a minute and looks at me. He opens his mouth to say something.

"Not 1 question. I have been answering questions for nearly 4 hours. I'm not doing that anymore."

He sits down in the chair. "Ok. Let's get some food."

"I'm not coming out."

The door opens and a servant pokes her head in. "Sir, Nikolas is here."

"Send him in."

Nikolas walks in and looks at Elek. Then at me. "What's going on babygirl?"

"No more questions." I start to cry.

"Ok. Come here."

I jump up and run to Nikolas. I wrap all around his chest and put my legs around his hips.

He gives me a big hug. "Let's get some lunch then I'll go to the water park with you. We'll have everyone direct questions to Dipak and Marcus. Is that better?"

I nod and wipe my eyes.

Elek looks at Nikolas. "You might want to check on Tye too. He was looking a bit stressed last time he walked threw."

"Great." Nikolas pats my butt. "Let's go get it all sorted over lunch. Dipak and Marcus can deal with it for a bit. Give these kids a break."

The 3 of us go up to the restaurant. Dipak spots Nikolas carrying me right away and walks over. "What's going on?"

"She's done and I think Tye is done. All questions are going to go to you and Marcus now."

Dipak nods. "Yea that's fine." He looks at Elek. "You still good in the packages store?"

"Yea I'm fine."

"Good I have no fucking idea what's going on in there. How's it going though?"

"Really good. A lot of the resort guests are buying stuff. It'll pick up once the rest of the rooms open for rental."

"Nice."

Tye walks in rubbing his eyes and looking like he's going to pull his hair out.

Dipak nods and pushes Tye over to me and Nikolas.

Me, Tye, Nikolas, and Elek all sit down at a table alone, back by a corner. Me and Tye just stare at the table itself.

Dipak stands up in the middle of the room. "As of now, all questions or concerns are to be directed to me or Marcus. And this is resort wide. Spa, waterpark, shop, or ocean. It doesn't matter. Questions, comments, concerns all come to be and Marcus now. Elek is still running the packages shop he can answer questions for that. Any questions?"

Everyone shakes their heads and looks at me and Tye. My eyes fill up with tears, I don't know what to say. Tye starts rubbing his again.

Elek looks at us for a second then jumps up. "Thank you everyone for helping with the soft opening. It's going great. We're learning a lot about the limits of the spa. And as of right now, I do believe everything is being kept up with fairly well. So please keep it up. Remember the shops, water park, spa, kids clubs, and massage services are open to everyone. Make sure you check everything out and thank you very much for testing everything for us."
