Back to the Beginning

chapter 3

The flight was long and tiring and i couldn't get much sleep due to the uncomfortable seats but i was happy to finally get off the plane.

I let out a loud yawn as i stretched my cramped muscles, all i wanted right now was to go back to my bedroom and wake up to the end of this nightmare but unfortunately life doesn't work that way.

"Alright girls, we're going to meet the others at the hotel from there we'll go over the plan" cole said drawing our attention as a yellow cab pulled in beside us, with a middle aged man seated behind the wheel.

The drive to the hotel was long and boring as we weaved through cars and people rushing to get to work.
i looked out at the scenery trying to distract myself from my thoughts, i didn't want to know what my mind would conjur up this time...

Soon a sign came into view the bold gold letters reflecting of the piercing rays of the sun blindingy eyesight for a minute i felt the cab pull over infront of a tall building next to the sign

"De royale Hotel" nia read the sign outloud from beside me, the building screamed money with its silver and gold decor
A guard held the door open for us as i gave him a nod of acknowledgememt not really in the mood for smiling.

The air conditioned reception made gosebumps crawl over my skin as i regretted wearing a tanktop
I felt under dressed as i spotted women dressed in extravagant outfit and men clad in designer suits.
i crossed my arms subconciously as i felt most of the heated stares directed at me probably judging my choice of outfit

"I'm sorry but the motel is downtown " the scantily dressed receptionist snapped snarkily earning a few snickers from some passers-by

"Well i'm sorry the beauty salon is definitely not behind that desk" i counter mentally patting myself on the shoulder.

"Nice one, girl" nia smirked giving me a high five

The sleazy receptionist instantly peaks at the sight of cole trying to rearrange her non-existent boobs that are practially spilling out of the small shirt

" sorry to burst your bubble but he's taken" nia smiled batting her eyelashes innocently

"And even if he wasn't, he doesn't do fake bimbos" i smirked watching her face turn sour instantly

"Alright girls that's enough i feel she's had enough" cole paused to hide his smile " now back to buisiness i booked two rooms under the name cole rivera"

" yes let me check...."she stated smiling bitterly "here are your room keys enjoy" the two keys dangled from her perfectly manicured fingures.

Yanking the keys from her hands i gave her a sweet smile and followed the bell boy to our rooms

After dropping off Cole in his room and saying hi to danny and john, i and nia walked to our rooms thankful to finally relax.
The interior was magnificient with its white walls and gold intricate designs-- a queen sized bed sat at one end of a room while a normal sized closet the soft glow of the lights gave the room a luminiscent view.. all in all the room was beautiful....

"Phew, finally i can sleep" i exclaimed plopping myself down on the soft white sheets that smelled like lavender

" you said it sister" Nia sighed joining me on the bed
