Who goes on a business trip to Fiji? According to Giovanni he was meeting some clients here. Said clients wanted to meet in Fiji claiming to be tired of having meetings in the normal business class society- something about feeling more at ease here.
Currently we were in the elevator to our suite which previously I considered it to be completely inappropriate, until the front desk clerk explained that it have two bedroom with plenty of space and secured bedroom doors.
She had whispered the last part to me when Giovanni was out of hearing distance, which I appreciated.
The hotel was just so beautiful, the environment calm my nerves completely and I had blocked mothers number after she tried to reach out to me again so I felt more content than I felt in the past week.
"Will you be free tomorrow?" I ask as we follow the baggage porter.
He casually stroll next to me with his hands in his pant pockets. "Why so curious sweetheart, did you made plans for us?"
"As a matter of fact I was thinking that if you are free then we can continue the interview."
His playful grin vanish, "Of Course but we'll have to continue in the evening."
He swipe the key card and open the door, I entered before him as he stood by the door talking to the baggage porter. The interior was breath taking, it was like a small apartment. Two bedrooms which I'm hoping both had an en suite, a kitchen a living room and last but not least a beautiful balcony that gives the perfect view of the ocean and parts of the island. It was so perfect here.
I was startled by Giovanni who is standing at the entrance of the balcony with his arms folded looking at me. "Did you pick your room?"
"I figured that since you're the one paying for this you should have the honers." By the look he was giving me I'm sure he was about to protest, "Please."
"Fine. You should get some rest, I'm going to have a shower probably do the same then head out to the bar. Feel free to order room service are if you don't feel like eating alone you can always join me."
I know what he was trying to do, "It's not working mister." I say while I try to contain the small smile from appearing.
"Was worth a try." He wink before leaving me be.
I enter a small hallway which had two doors, one on the left and a few feet from that on the right was another door. I ended up taking the room that was further away since Giovanni had chosen the first one.
The grey colour room occupied a queen size bed, two white night tables at both sides of the bed with matching chandelier looking lamps, there was also a dresser and to my relief an en suite which occupied a huge jacuzzi tub and also a stand in shower.
I decide to unpack the few things I carried since I'd be here for a week, hopefully shorter. After that was over with I took a shower before drifting off to sleep on the softest mattress I've ever slept on.
I was having a dreamless sleep when something starts to vibrate underneath me against my stomach. At first I was startled wondering what it could have been, I groan like a dying animal the moment I realize that I had been laying on my phone, without opening my eyes I swipe what I assume is the little green phone thingy and press it to my ear.
"Hello?" I answer with my only intention being to go back to sleep.
"Ciara it's me."
I sat up so fast that I received a pain in my neck. How did he manage to get through to me when I had blocked his number?
