Lost In Spain

Chapter 04: The Beginning Of Greatness

"Hola Spain", Emilia shouts as soon as we land.

"Emilia Roe, I'm catching the next flight back to Boston if this is how you're going to act."

"I'm sorry, I'm just too excited."

"Ya now let's go, we have to collect our bags.", I say as I walk ahead.

We collect our bags and head towards the cafe nearby. Emilia orders her all time favourite coffee with cookies.

"Tea with milk, sweet and light for you?", she asks me.

"Nah, I won't be having anything.", I say to the waiter.

I then tell Emilia to take care of the bags while I'm in the ladies room.

"Done with the coffee?", I ask her after returning.

"Yes! Let's go."

"Cool, let me get my ba-", I stop.

"What happened?", she says stuffing a whole piece of cookie in her mouth.

"Where's my pink bag?"

"Must be somewhere here.", she points towards the luggage.

"It isn't. I kept it right here on this chair."

We search all the bags. We also go and check the luggage department but no hopes of getting the bag.

"All our money is still with us. So why are we so worried about that one bag?", Emilia asks.

"Because that one bag had all the details of the trip. It had the diary.", I say massaging my temples. This trip is already a disaster.

"What diary?", she asks, causally.

"The diary in which the contact number of our guide, our hotel reservations and basically every single thing we need in this trip was written."

"You haven't saved any of those details on your phone?", she groans.

"Duh!"

"What are we going to do now?"

"Well, all we can do is wait. The guide has our photographs. He knows that I'm Alex Barnes, you're Emilia Roe, we're here for a road trip. He also knows about our hotel. And he will be taking us to different places.", I announce the only details I remember.

"What's his name?", she asks.

"George.", I sigh.

"George what?", she raises an eyebrow.

"Um, George."

"You don't know his last name, Alex?"

"No.", I look down.

We're doomed. We were supposed to ring George.. well, whatever his last name is as soon as we arrived. I'm about to call to daddy when, "Do you two happen to be Alex Barnes and Emilia Roe by any chance?", a tall, brown-eyed, well built man is standing in front of us. He's wearing a black shirt along with tight black ripped jeans. And damn, he looks hot.

"So your friend has a habit of wandering like that?", he says to Emilia.

Turns out I zoned out and these two already started flirting with each other.

"Sup Alex? All cool?", Emilia asks me.

"Yeah, I'm fine.", I shrug.

"So hey," she continues her conversation with the guy, "what is your full name?"

"George McGarthy."

"Yeah cool. Now pick up the luggage. And where's our car?", I cut the conversation.
