"Let's see what you are waiting for!"
The two ordered soft drinks and sat there chatting.
Soon, she noticed a man in black with a black cap on his head heading inside. Two bodyguards were walking beside him as one of them headed to the reception and handed out a card to the receptionist. He took a room card and walked to the man who was already in the elevator. No matter how many years had passed, she could never forget the figure and built of her husband. She knew for a fact that was him. He was well covered that no one would notice he was the governor at all.
"That's him." She said as soon as the elevator door closed
"Should we go in there and bust them now?" Mercy was too impatient. Eve looked at her and shook her head
"You look like the wife whose husband is cheating" she joked with the situation surprising Mercy. "Look who is talking. You are so calm. You look like a spectator rather than a wife shoes husband is cheating." Mercy replied honestly. Eve didn't look hurt or aggrieved at all. It seem normal. Like someone who had gone through worse than this
" Well.. you can say nothing surprises me at this point." She sighed thinking of all the things she had heard and seen about her husband. She was hurt deeply but sometimes the pain make you numb to more pain. That's how she was feeling. She wanted to give her husband a benefit of the doubt. Maybe he had come to deal with his mess. Maybe he was there to end things with the woman. Those were the thoughts running through her mind.
"Let's wait for a few minutes and go"
"I am okay with that."
The two friends sat there silent. Every one of them had their thoughts. One was thinking on how to kill the two while the other what could be happening in that room
She walked to the reception and asked for a key card to room 504
" I am sorry Ma'am but I can't give you the keycard to the room. It's against our policy" she was refused instantly. She knew that would be the case and still did it
"That's her husband cheating with another woman and this is what you can say" Mercy jumped in before Eve could anything further. The receptionist was not surprised at all. It seem this kind of incidents happen all the time
" I am sorry but that's the policy." The receptionist smiled wry trying to keep her composure. It was always difficult to deal with the kind of situation before her but there was nothing she could do. Their policy was very strict
" Call your manager here." Eve didn't cause any commotion and asked for the manger. She had her ways. She just wanted to establish her power and connection.
Soon the manager came and smiled at her
" Madam. I am sorry to attend to you in this kind of situation
" Ohh so you know who I am them. I won't beat around the bush. My husband is in there with another woman. I just want the key card and I can walk away peacefully without causing any scene here." She smiled to the manger but the smile was not as sweet as one might see from a distance. To the manager, it was a devils smile. He felt chilled down his smile. It seem to be saying do anything stupid and I will eat you live
"Mmmmh… I wish I could help but it's against our policy…. There is nothing I can do" his legs were shivering. If asked, he would not know what was making him shiver in the first place. It was feeling and the pressure he was feeling from the other end.
' Okay… I won't make things difficult for you." She didn't argue and walked away from them making a call. It was a short one minute call. As soon as she turned to the reception desk again, the manager's phone rang
"Sir…" he looked at the two women and the bodyguards behind them and smiled awry, "okay. I will do it right away" he dropped the called and asked for the key card form the receptionist
" I am sorry Ma'am. Here is the card" he handed it over and looked at the two women disappeared into the elevator.
" Why did you give them the key card?" the receptionist asked looking at the manger surprised. She had been working here the longest and knew how strict the manager was…unless… the boss interfered
" The boss called. He told me to give them whatever they wanted and not stop them from doing whatever they wanted" he explained without noticing at all
"Who is the woman?"
"You don't want to know. Make sure this incident does not go out of here. Their privacy comes first" the manger warned and walked away. He wanted to find out what was happening and stop them from killing each other if it comes to that" what he didn't expect was to be caught in between two giants
Getting out of the elevator, Eve walked elegantly in the corridor towards the said room but her hands were sweating. Her feet seemed stronger form an outsider perspective but she was shaking. She was in pain. Her heart was aching. She didn't know what to expect.
She stood at the door for a second listening inside the room but she heard nothing. That's why the hotel was the best. It was sound proof and anti spy rooms. It was a presidential suite. It had two rooms and a sitting room. One could live in there and be comfortable just like living at home
She opened the room with the keycard and walked inside followed closely by Mercy. Her bodyguards all remained outside on each side of the door. The two people inside the room did not notice someone had entered the room
" Why are you doing this to be me? You promised to be with me. Why are you breaking up with me?' The woman was crying in the bedroom. The man was seated on the one side of the bed as the woman sat next to him sobbing uncontrollably. Being a man, Martin felt bad. She seemed too sincere about loving him
" You I have loved you for so many years. You begged me to let you marry that woman because of her power. I agreed because you promised ot divorce her as soon as everything settled. It has been five years but you are still with her. How do you expect me to feel?' the woman cried even further
"… Shhh. I know I wronged you but things have happened. There is nothing I could do at this point. My wife found out about us and I don't want to lose her. I do love her" he looked at the woman feeling divided. He had once loved her like crazy
"What about me? Don't you love me anymore?"
"I do but I am in a difficult situation. Let me handle my wife first and then we will talk about us later." He said stroking her hair. The woman moved closer to the Martin and wiped her tears.
"Then can you make love to me for the last time before you go. Make me feel loved like you always does. That's the only thing I would ask of you"
