Chapter 22: Vacation On A Private Island
Anastasia's POV
"Okay Jennifer,I am freaking the hell out! Just when I thought President Aaron Blacks is crazy and over the top his friend Jordan simply proved me wrong!"
"Hey can you calm down and talk slowly ,can't hear you clearly over the phone!"
"Exactly! Because I am continent away from you, best friend. This is still crazy and unbelievable"
"Are you okay,should I call the cops or are you just drunk?" Jennifer snickered over the phone.
"Hey, let's switch back to video call. You need to see this,don't think you will believe me even if I tell you…"
"Okay,whatever burst your bubbles" I switched back the call towards the balcony pool which looks like a jacuzzi warm and having this nice relaxing scent and the beautiful clear blue sky just gave it a perfect look.
"Whoa, is that on a television?'' Jennifer asked and I rolled my eyes but then it was her fault. None of us ever talk about taking vacations when we are both clearly just starting out our careers.
"I'm in Maldives Babe, Jordan and President Aaron with Ava just randomly showed up at school and coarsed me into having a post dinner date with them just to find out that it's not some fancy restaurant but Maldives! " I said, catching my breath.
"I don't believe this, send me your location and moments"
"Oh of course" I said, going into my browser to forward it to her.
"Have you not learned anything from me? If this dream of yours is true ,always take pictures for the moments…" her voice died down as her eyes widened with shock while she edges closer to the phone and cleaning her eyes off ,the old man beside her on the sub train dozing off.
"I was speechless too when the pilot announced our destination when the private jet landed" I replied lying down on the really soft lush duvet of the huge Queen size bed.
"You are a traitor! Why didn't you invite me?! " She asked, whining. Oops, didn't think about that.
"It was Jordans Idea and he insisted it was a secret. I also wish you were here but don't worry. Will be back tomorrow , overheard President Aaron Blacks saying he has a conference tomorrow…"
"Can't the jet come pick me up and they should come back and leave us for one more week?" She asked making a face
"I will hear from Jordan…"
"Hey,just kidding. Just have fun and use this 24 hours to have as much fun as you can and hope you have some bikinis with you? …"
"I don't…"
"And also take a lot of pictures! Make sure that the billionaire falls in love with you ,it will be fun when you start taking us out with your husband's money " she finished with a wink as I rolled my eyes at her.
"Room tour my lady?" I asked making a mock bow.
"Don't ask twice!" And I picked up my phone, switched to the back camera and showed her around the not extravagantly big ,modest but so classy.
"This hotel is fire beat friend,I am so jealous right now…"
"Uhm, actually this vacation house belongs to Jordan…"
"Hey, how are these men this rich,hope you won't be kidnapped or be used for…"
*Knock Knock*
"I have to go, someone is knocking "I said blowing a kiss to Jennifer before hanging up and opening the door.
"Hey Ava and Dior. You are dressed already?" I opened the door wider as Jordan peeked in with a small carry-on bag.
"Here,find something to wear. Will come back to get you in the next 10 minutes "
"But where are we going?"
"To take an underwater submarine tour which I know will fascinate little Ava"
"Oh okay, thank you. This island is heavenly "
"Wait till you see the rest" He winked and clsoed the door behind him with a cocky suspicious smile.
"Hey Ava, you stay here with Dior while I go and freshen up" I said, placing a peck on her soft baby cheeks and resisting the sudden urge to ask her the whereabouts of her father whose expression was pretty flat all through this exhilarating journey.
The bathroom was almost the size of the bedroom, very neat and elegantly designed. I switched on the shower as I relished what happened today.
When Jordan came to pick us up from school,I honestly thought we would be going to some random five star restaurant just for me to wake up in the Airport. I know that President Aaron Blacks has his own private jet but didn't know Jordan has his own too, guess birds of the same feathers really fly together.
I literally shouted when the pilot announced the destination,coming out of the jet and discovering that we were surrounded by a more magical part of the world.
The skitbaot that came to pick us up was small but then portable. Through the journey on the water I got to see a lot of beautiful sea creatures over the crystal clear water with Ava on my laps as we kept counting the sea animals we saw on our way.
Even the fish over here looks so different , beautiful with bright colours.Ava and I even got to touch the dolphins while Diro was a good boy all through. Lying close to Jordan's feet.
Jordan was busy smiling and taking us pictures while President Aaron Blacks kept rolling his eyes when he took a break away from his gadget.
We finally came to a bitvh where we had to walk a little further on the really sandy beach.
"Let me have her" was the only time President Aaron talked to me.
"Okay" I gave him Ava who excitedly sat down on her father's shoulder holding his head for support.
So cute.
We arrived at what looked like a beach house, it's big but looks so warm and welcoming with earth elements themed surroundings.
Two absolutely gorgeous Caribbean young looking ladies with really long wavy hair ,tanned body looking like runway models rather than housekeepers. I mean did you guys see how long their legs were under those mini skirts, and they still had to wear really high wedges making me feel completely off in my long sundress and peach sneakers.
Their accent was thick but then not bad at all as they welcomed us inside the magical place which was all quiet.
