Infiltration(by Hazel Mikali)(completed)

chapter 5

"Sir Sir are you okay?"the flight attendant asked Ahmed."Yes I'm fine please get me some sparkling water."he said." sure coming right up"she responded. Ahmed had been deep in thought.such a lonely life. Jetting to different countries by himself.He  suddenly felt empty ,he went through his phone and opened his WhatsApp. he went to my contact and opened my profile picture .that smile that he never paid attention to.He minimised the chat."pete"he said calling out to his assistant.He removed his headphones."Yes sir"." can you get hazel on a flight to Australia the moment we land." He said."your wife Hazel?" he asked surprised ."yes Hazel my wife"he repeated harshly." all right I will get Hazel on a flight to Australia"Pete repeated making sure he had heard the right thing. I sipped on my margarita my eyes looking all the way across the  pool. the garden boy was mowing the lawn shirtless.I drooled over him .he had the most perfect abs.a  hard-working man who could get dirty.Such a turn on. my phone rang pulling me out of my fantasy. I looked at it. it was a video call from Ahmed.How unusual ." hello" I said as his face came up on the phone ."hey Haze. what's up?" he asked awkwardly."well I am sitting by the pool having a drink. what's up with you.?i asked." well I just thought I should let you know that I just landed in Australia" he said taking me by surprise. what was wrong with him? updating me on his whereabouts. "oh that's great how was your flight" i asked." yeah well it was pretty cool."he replied." okay "I said. there was an awkward silence ."so yeah i got you on a flight to come here tonight"he said ."you got me on a flight?"i asked obviously surprised." yeah well there is this couple thing going on and it would be good for business if you were here but you don't have to come if you don't want" he said. he was lying to me .there was no couples .thing he wanted me to be there with him . I got a thrill." well i will check my schedule"." please" he begged." well if it's important then yes"i said."yes it's very important "he said before hanging up abruptly .a smile drew up on my face. I had never travelled with my husband before. I was excited and also eager to know what he got up to on these trips .

"Dont you worry at all.the shipment will be delivered on time and I will cover your tracks.just make sure you keep your end of the deal" Hendricks said to ahmed. "I've got something urgent to attend to"ahmed said to him." what's the rush. let's have a drink."he insisted. "Let's celebrate when the deal is sealed." he said getting up and leaving. "Take me to the airport and step on the gas"ahmed demanded to his driver." yes sir".
I sat in the airport lounge .the flight had been very short and exciting because I kept wondering what was in store for me. the driver was running late and I was getting impatient. "welcome to Australia ". I looked up .it was Ahmed.I was on the verge of blowing up in confusion and disbelief. what was happening to him. I stood up."Thanks". I didn't know what else to say .I was simply surprised and taken back .He planted a tender kiss on my cheek ."Lunch?"he asked as he took my backpack from my shoulder." Well i would love to go and freshen up right now."i said." jet lag?"he asked."just a little bit"i replied."anything for you"he said.Something about that sounded genuine but a little part of me didn't want to believe it .we had always been so sarcastic towards each other it was hard to think this was real I followed him out of the lounge."how awkward can it be for a man to pick up his wife from the airport?"i thought to myself.
