《ORPHANAGE GIRL》Chapter 29

Advertisement

It's been a month since I and Charles are together, and this whole month has been blissful. I got job in best publication company of the city and it pays really well. Because of the job and his office work we didn't get much time to spend together, but we somehow manage by calling and texting every day.

I looked at the wall clock, then started cleaning my desk before leaving for home. I locked the cabin door stuffing the keys back in my handbag when I felt a tap on my shoulder.

"leaving?" luke, a guy from my work asked

"yes"

We walked down through the elevator, talking about work stuffs and he making fun of our boss making me laugh.

"You look pretty when you laugh" he said smiling, " not that you don't pretty without, I mean you are pretty actually very-"

"Luke, Luke, I get it. Thanks" I smiled back. He looked nervous.

"How are you gonna go home?" he asked

"cab" I start looking for my phone inside my bag when he spoke again

"come I will drop you" he reached for my hand but I stepped back

"ah no thanks, I will be fine"

"NO, I insist"

"There will be no need for that" a deep cold voice came from behind, I turn around to see Charles walking slowly towards me

He looked down at me, slightly kissing my lips. He straighten his back again, now looking at Luke.

"Thanks for the offer, but I will drive my girlfriend off to her home" Charles spoke, pressing every word and his eyes fixed on Luke

"Sure, no problem. Bye Olivia. See you at work" with that he left

Charles started walking towards his car leaving me behind.

"You didn't tell me you are going to pick me up?" I started following him

"Wanted to surprise you" he opens the car door for me as I slide in

His face was stoned straight when he started the car. My phone started ringing making me look away from him.

"Freya?" I said as soon as I answered the call

"Where are you?" I heard rustling on the other side of phone

"On my way home"

"Okay I will be late today, emergency case"

"Ah, okay" I'm confused because before she used to just text me saying that she will be late, she never called

"Okay byeee, loveeee you" she ended the call, as I looked at my phone with furrowed expression

Did she sounded excited? Or was I overthinking?

I looked at Charles who was still looking at the road with pressed lips, I slowly slide my fingers through his other hand, clutching them tightly.

I heard him take a sharp breath as he turn to look at me. He lifted our intertwine hand, softly kissing them.

"I missed you" his eyes soften.

"I missed you too"

we reached my apartment, climbing out of the car I started fishing the apartment keys from my hand bag, we walked into elevator. As we reached my apartment door I unlocked it.

I gasp as I see, candles lights decorated illuminating the darkness in the living room, there are balloons flying on the floor as I walked forward, a table in arranged with delicious food on them with two glasses and a bottle of champagne.

Charles wrapped his strong arms around me as I inhale his cologne.

"Do you like it?" His breath fanning on my neck, as shiver ran down my spine.

"Loved it" I turned towards him linking my arms around his neck.

"I'm sorry for being busy in work but I guess this will make up for it?"

I nodded resting my head on his forehead.

"C'mon" he grabbed my hand taking me towards the beautiful arranged table. Pulling out a chair, he let me sit first like an absolute gentleman

"I hope you like Indian food" he said nervously

"I love Indian food" my eyes opened in excitement

"Thank God"

We ate our food, occasionally asking about each other's day and work. Glad he didn't bring Luke's topic

"I wanted to give you something" he said after we kept the dirty dishes in the sink

"What?" I looked at him slightly leaning on the kitchen slab

He took an envelope out from inside him coat and gave it to me. I looked at him questionably as I took the envelope from his hand.

"Open it"

I opened the envelope to see some pictures of Bahamas Island, still not understanding the thing I looked at Charles confused.

He shrugged his shoulder, that's when it clicked to me

"Seriously?" I exclaimed

He nodded smiling, not thinking twice, I jumped into his arms laughing.

"Glad you like the present"

"I always wanted to go Bahamas. How do you know?" I asked him, but then I remember Freya's excitement on the call.

"Wait, did Freya helped you in all this?" I asked him again

He scratched the back of his head, "well, they are coming too"

A huge smile took place on my lips, "when are we going?"

"Tomorrow"

"Shit I haven't packed"

"You have all night to pack, unless you want to do something else" he pulled me towards him, kissing my cheeks then jaw then slowly trailing down to neck

Suddenly the door burst open, "what did she say? Did she agreed?" Freya came barging in

When she saw the position in which we were standing, "sorry I ruined the moment again, didn't I?

"Yes you did" I heard Charles mumble only I was able to hear it

I chuckled at his reaction

"She agreed" Charles said placing his hands on my shoulder

Freya sigh in relief, "I'm going to pack, you can continue whatever you guys were doing" she started making kissing face making me chuckle

"God helps Aaron" Charles joked

********

It's four in the morning as I was pulling Freya out of her bed

"Freyaaaaaa, we will be late. Wake up you lazy ass" I huffed as I tried pulling her leg

"5 minutes more"

"You know what I'm locking you away. Aaron will find some pretty girl there, I have heard girls are really beautiful there"

Hearing that she jumped out of bed like it caught fire.

"I hate you"

"Yeah yeah whatever, now go get ready. Guys will be here anytime soon" with that I went to my room to take my luggage downstairs.

I pour myself a cup of coffee, when the doorbell rang. Checking the time, it was 4:12.

As soon as I opened the door, Charles grabbed my back pulling me close to him and capturing my lips with his.

"Mhmm, I missed you" he said as we pulled back. I was still breathless and in haze to say anything so I nodded making him chuckle.

"Ready?"

"Yes, fre-"

"Ouch" Freya stumbled down on stairs with her luggage, smiling sheepishly.

"Are you alright?" Aaron came from behind before I can speak.

"Yeah" she assured him while he grabbed her bag and went towards the car, I wink at Freya teasing her.

"Let's go"

We arrived at the airport after half an hour drive, to see that we are not lining up for boarding but going different direction. Confused, I followed Charles when two guys dressed in a pilot dress came towards him.

They talked indistinctly, as I just stood there waiting.

"Come on" Charles held his hand out for me to hold. We walked towards the runway, where a huge private plane came in a view. As we walked near it, I saw "Maxwell Enterprise" written on it.

My mouth hangs open, he freaking own a private plane. Of course he does! I hurriedly close my mouth not wanting to look like a fool, when Aaron, Freya, Brandon and Sarah approaches.

"Hey" Sarah came hugging me

"How have you been?" I asked smiling as I see her baby bump.

"Been good"

The pilot asked us to climb inside, Charles asked me to go before him

"I know you are checking out my ass" I slowly said jokingly

"What can I say? It's a nice view"

I gasp, hitting him in his arms once we were inside.

I turned around to walk towards the seat, when my eyes wandered around the interior of the plane.

The big brown leather seats near large oval window which gives breathtaking view, 3 bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, sophisticated lounges and fully-equipped galleys, LED-light ceiling panel that resembles a skylight.

Over all, it speaks luxury. We all took our seats, buckling up our seatbelt as the pilot announced that now we take off.

The plane ran on the runway then it took off, my hand immediately clutched Charles's hand as I close my eyes feeling a bit weirdness in my chest. It happens every time I fly on plane.

"You alright?" Charles asked looking concerned.

I nodded at him, now watching the view from the window still holding his hand.

It's been an hour since we departed, I stood up from my seat to go to washroom. I opened the door of one of the bedroom to see Sarah sleeping next to Brandon who was reading a magazine, he looked up to see me then winked.

I shake my head about to close the door, when Charles came "Need something?"

"I was searching for washroom"

He led me to another room, in which I straightly went to do my business. I came out after washing my hand to see, Charles lying on bed.

I walked slowly towards him to see his eyes is closed, he must be tired.

"Come sleep next to me" he said suddenly, making my jump a little.

Nervously I sat on the bed, then lying down with my head on his shoulder. He clutched his arms around me tightly, signing softly. I too placed my hands on this chest, closing my eyes. I can feel heart beating fast just like my.

We fell asleep in each other's arms when suddenly we heard the announcement from the pilot saying to now sit back to our seat as we are about to land.

The plane landed smoothly on the runway. The fresh air caressing my face, as we stepped out of the plane.

"Welcome to Bahamas"
