As they reached the hotel, Raymond heavily tipped the cabbie and coordinated with the concierge for transferring all their luggage to their honeymoon suite.
It was a deluxe presidential suite with an enviable view of the beach and an "en-suite" bathroom with a double capacity jacuzzi. That room echoed for love, demanded intimacy and was a blatant display of a congregation of luxury and elegance.
The jacuzzi had been pre-filled with hot water and aromatic oil and bath salts. So the moment Akira entered the bathroom and saw the preparation, her elated mood dampened a bit and that didn't go unnoticed by Raymond. Her slouched shoulders and her head tilted on the bathroom door, easily gave away the state of her mind.
So after closing the door and the blinds, Raymond came close to Akira and hugged her from behind and asked,
"What are you thinking?"
"Erm... nothing."
