Ex Boyfriend

Who is that?

Derek's POV

I was sleeping peacefully that my alarm went off, for the hundredth time.
I stretched my hand to shut it down but only then my eye caught the time.

10:30 am! Shit!
At 12, I had a business meet and I was not even prepared.

"Get going Derek" I pulled myself out of the bed and proceeded to get ready.

By 11, I was dressed in a plain red shirt, designer tie with cream coloured coat and pants.
Brown shoes, combed hair and there....ready to leave.

I went to the desk and picked some important papers. Closed them in a brief case and left the suite.

I walked pass the corridor and waited for the elevator.

"Hello Mr Derek" I heard a voice.

I turned and found a beautiful lady standing behind me. She was from the hotel staff.

"Hello Sweetness. Your good name?"

"Darcy" she smiled and said.

"Nice to meet you Darcy" I said and then we got into the elevator.

"I haven't seen you before. New to this place?" I said.
Duh! I talked as if I have been living there all my life.
But then it was a habit of mine to flirt with ladies.

"Yeah. First week" she looked down and said.

"It's okay, you are a beautiful young lady and you will be fine."

"Thank you. Can I get you something later?" she smiled and asked.

See you keep girls happy and they will keep you happy.

"No, thank you but if so, I'll surely call you" I said as the elevator reached the ground floor.

"Okay have a nice day" she said and got out with her trolley.

I got out and proceeded out of the hotel.

I looked around to find the cab.

I UBER it around 15 minutes ago and it was still on the way.

It was 11:45 when I finally made it to the destination.

I went in and asked if a private table was available and to my surprise the lady asked as to why I need a private table.

I chuckled and said "It's for a business meet."

Then she cursed something in a foreign language and asked me to wait in the lobby near her table.

Then she gave orders to someone and the other woman set off hastily.

So, looking at the scene I concluded that this hotel had a private table but since it wasn't in use for a long time, it needed some cleaning.

I wondered why did the other person chose this place.

No doubt it looked different...somewhat Chinese, but we were out on a business meet.
I laid back on the sofa and waited.

After a few minutes, I got a call from Cassie.
She informed me that Micheal and her were going to Europe on a tour for four days but I had to cut her off because presently I had other things to do.

The lady emerged and asked me to follow her.

I did and she took me through a swirls of passages to a bigger room.
This restaurant had an attractive theme.
It was different.

So, in this place there was a big room.

Few people were already there. She took me to the corner and there was the private table.

I would have been cool if there was only a table in the corner but this one was in a glass cabinet which I think was shining more than the entire hall.

"This room is sound proof. I can dim the lights, if you want." she said once she noticed my expressions.

"No I am good" I said and waited for my partner.

When he came in, we greeted and sat to have a conversation only then I got to know that it was this guy who owned the place.
Anyways so we ordered the food and started the main discussion.

Half an hour passed by and then the guy got a call.
He left the cabin to take it.

It was only then I turned my attention to the people sitting outside.

With clock eyes I looked around and then my eyes locked on the lady sitting across the hall. Not too far away.

Who was it?

Becky!

Yeah, I can identify her from miles.

Shit! Cassie told me that they were on a day out.

What a co incident that they had to choose this place for lunch.

I can't afford to be seen at the moment. I had a plan and if I am seen, it's gone. Never going to get Becky back.

I decided to wrap up this whole thing ASAP and then run away.

The guy returned and I lied that I had to go to a party afterwards.
So by 2:30, I was back in my suite.

What an escape it was?
Duh!

I undressed and laid on the bed.

So, should I go and visit Becky when Micheal is away?
No, not yet. I don't want to stalk her.
After all she was married.

Anyways I should stick to my original plan.

I wondered what to do for the evening.

I passed time and then at 8, went to a club, to meet pretty woman and get drunk.

It was 11 when I returned back to the suite after a wonderful evening.

I noticed that the door was open.

I went in and found two girls in bikini lying on the bed.

I wondered who sent them?

But I wasn't in a mood for sex.

The only person I wanted right now was Becky.

"Hey pretty ladies." I said and went to get undress.

I then came to the room and was handed a champagne.

I accepted it and took my place on the bed.

As I watched the girls kiss each other at the edge of the bed, I yawned.

"Common Derek, join us" said one of them.

"Yeah! You will keep us begging you" said the other.

"Sorry girls, I am really exhausted today." I said and laid back with my mind filled thoughts of the only person who ruled my life.
