Romeo and Anna alighted from the Lexus 600 ultra luxury vehicle that drove them to the Alkright hotel. The vehicle belonged to Anna.The Alkright hotel, owned by the prestigious Davidsons, welcomed Romeo and Anna with an opulent facade adorned in intricate architectural details. As they entered, the grand foyer unveiled a symphony of rich marbles and golden accents, while the air carried the subtle scent of exotic flowers. The lobby boasted plush furnishings, and the ambient lighting created an atmosphere of sheer elegance. Every inch of the Alkright hotel whispered tales of luxury, promising a stay that transcended opulence."What about your family members?" Romeo asked."They are already at the reservation that I booked."Anna exuded elegance in a stunning gown, with its fabric cascading gracefully with each step. The gown, adorned with intricate details and a subtle shimmer, complemented her figure flawlessly. Her ensemble was completed with tasteful accessories – a hint of sp
Romeo shook his head. "No!" He said in a breathless whisper. No one except Anna heard it.Anna clenched her jaw, then looked at her father. "Dad, today is my birthday right?""Of course darling.""And if I am correct I am supposed to do anything that that makes me happy right?""Yes.""When I asked that I am referring to all of you!" She bellowed angrily at the occupants of the table."Yes." All of them echoed together."Okay, that's nice." She grabbed Romeo and kissed him on his lips. This caused disappointing glances amongst some of the family members, the rest of the looked at Romeo with disdain and disgust.Even Anna's parents were put off by the gesture."Okay guys, let's dig in, I'm starving." Immediately she began to eat the meal that was presented to her.Her family members joined her, but they didn't do it with free minds.While they digged in, enjoying their meals, the Hickey family were engaged in discussions. The females talked about fashion and business related topics,
Anna turned to look at Romeo before looking back at her parents. "Um guys, no need for that, he has already given me my…""No Anna." Romeo interrupted her. "No…I have not given you your gift."Anna was dumbfounded and embarassed. She was embarassed at the fact that her effort to defend Romeo to rubbished by Romeo himself."I will give you your gift." He looked confident.Eyebrows were raised due to Romeo's show of confidence and the Hickey's wondered what Romeo's next move would be.What gift would Romeo give to Anna to protect his ego in the presence of the Hickey's?Anna shook her head. "This is not necessary Romeo.""No…it's fine. Trust me." He touched her lap. "Now, who is your favourite musician?""What?" Anna looked confused."Punk ass, what does her favourite musician have to do with the gift she is expecting from you?" Jansen looked irritated.Romeo ignored him with his eyes still fixated on Anna's. "Come on, speak, who is your favourite musician?""John Legend."Romeo smiled.
Anna felt so special, seeing her favourite musician perform for her made her excited, but seeing Romeo pull off such performance for her made her ecstatic."Oh my God, I didn't know you could sing.""Well you know now. However I have a surprise for you.""Another surprise?""Yes." Romeo then signalled at one of the pages that helped him arrange the surprise and at once the page hurried out through the golden door.The whole room was filled with anticipation as the Hickeys wondered about the kind of surprise Romeo was about to make known to their daughter.Suddenly the golden doors swung open and two tall and muscular men walked in.They wore dark glasses and were clad in a pure white stainless suit. They carried briefcases which were made of silver and they walked in an orderly manner towards their boss Romeo."What is this?" Anna was confused."A surprise."Her family looked on with a keen gaze at what was about to unfold.Romeo signalled for them to open the briefcases and what gree
"Hey Romeo! Romeo!" Jansen called as he tried to catch up with Romeo.Romeo however couldn't hear him as he was far off.Jansen quickened his steps and maintaining that pace, he was directly behind Romeo in no time."Hey man, what's up." Jansen tapped Romeo on the shoulder.Romeo turned around and upon seeing that it was Jansen he clenched his jaw. "What do you want?""Hey man I want to say that I feel happy for the way you treated my sister so specially back there and I cannot hide the fact that I was amazed by the way you proved us wrong there. So here is one, you surely are a man." He offered Romeo a handshake.Romeo looked at Jansen's hands and looked coldly at his eyes. He said nothing, and he didn't shake him."Come on man, look, I know you are upset about earlier on, but I'm sorry. A real G isn't supposed to have hard feelings about a little chit chat gone wrong. Okay?"Romeo was silent.Jansen was embarassed by Romeo's lack of response. Seeing that Romeo was not going to forgi
As he exited the Alkright hotel, the young man put his bag at the back of his vehicle, entered the drivers seat and zoomed off.After about twenty five minutes drive, he reached a site afterwhich he alighted from his vehicle and he made his way into an uncompleted skyscraper. The building was put on hold for four months now, and as the man with the red-striped suit discreetly navigated the labyrinthine corridors, his every step seemed purposeful. The hushed whispers of his clothing against the carpet echoed in the silence of the skyscraper's uppermost floors. The dimly lit passageways concealed his movements, and he moved with the precision of someone familiar with every nook and cranny.Reaching the top floor, he found a secluded spot, away from prying eyes. With a calculated grace, he set down the bag. The red stripes on his suit reflected a hint of danger as he methodically unzipped the case. The metallic clinks and soft rustles of the equipment within were drowned out by the
It was a long night, and Romeo had just woken up from sleep. He had enjoyed his sleep last night, but the fact that he had no lady to hold unto made him feel a bit arkward.As usual, every morning, after waking up from sleep he washed his face, did some push ups, brushed his teeth and made himself some coffee.After that, he proceeded to switch on his plasma TV and what greeted him was a tragic news.Mr Charles Stauman had been assasinated. He was assasinated when he was about to give a speech during the opening ceremony for his new six star hotel, Charlie Hotels, the first, and only six star hotel in Yilaburg.Now who was Charles Stauman?Charles Stauman was a fast growing business man and real estate mogul who wowed those of the business class with his business strategies and marketing prowess.He was on the top chart as it regards real estate. His fast growth sure caused jealousy and envy, every real estate mogul saw him as the man to beat, but unfortunately, he was never brought d
The bossy looking receptionist, began to look condescendingly at Romeo. "And what do you think you just did? Huh." She looked daring. "What did you think, that slamming the counter and ordering me to take back my words which are true would make me to chicken out and be sorry?" She paused. "Sorry love, that ain't happening. Now take your battered body, bruised scarface and animalistic demeanour out of this hotel or you would not like the way I am going to treat you." She pointed at the exit.Romeo's heart began to thump, and his instincts was to give her a dirty slap right in the face, but he hesitated.If only she had the slightest idea of the persona she was regarding with contempt and disdain.If only she knew a fraction of the sacrifices, hurt and pain that birthed those scars which gave her the much needed freedom and livelihood as a citizen of Mondosh, she would have been more respectful.Despite her being oblivious to Romeo's real identity, Romeo believed that her actions deser
