Flight Of Discovery

Linda's POVI stare at my husband and my heart pounds in my chest. “Wh-what are you doing here?” Chris asks, swallowing hard as if he was just caught stealing a cookie from a cookie jar.“Uh…” I dragged the word, gripping my suitcase tighter. “Passport, please…” the lady behind the desk interrupted our conversation. She was very beautiful.But she had a look of impatience painted on her face.I turned away from my husband and handed my passport to the lady while mumbling, “here.”She took it, opened it and stared at the information before looking back at me. She did it one more time and then handed it back to me before flashing a smile.Instead of holding up the line, I got out of the way and waited for Chris to present his passport. He looked jittery and tried his best not to look in my direction.Why was he acting this way? If anything, I should have been the one behaving like that. Because I was literally running away to Iowa just so I could live a quiet life for a few months.

Clouded Trust

Linda's POVA rage built up in me and I jerked my arm away from him while saying very loudly, “Do not dare touch me!!”Chris withdrew quickly. His eyes wide with shock and some fear. Everyone in the airplane cabin stared at us but I did not care. I was heaving, my heart thundering in my chest.“You don’t get to do this!” I continued, my voice cracking at the end. “You don’t…you don’t get to do this.” I started to sob.Tears freely ran down my face and a heaviness filled my heart. Why? Why, huh?Why does this always happen to me? Everytime. Every damn time that I fully give my heart away to someone, it gets trampled on the ground.Is there something wrong with me?Am I discarded goods that everyone juts don’t want? First, it was my ex who I had caught screwing my brother on my wedding day. Now, this?The plane was going faster now, increasing its speed with each passing second. That was the only reason why I did not stand up to get away from him and his concubine.“Linda…” He said m

Airport Drama

Linda's POVMitch stared at me with a look of sympathy. “I’m so sorry,” he said in a soft tone.And I knew exactly what he was apologizing for. I think everyone in the plane knew that. Because of my finding out that my husband had been cheating on me.“It’s alright, it is what it is,” I replied, shrugging as if it didn’t feel like my heart was being torn into a thousand million pieces.“It’s okay to feel, you know? When we were together, you used to always suppress your emotions, pretending that you were superhuman, and that’s not healthy for you.” He flashed me a warm smile. I furrowed my eyebrows and scoffed lightly. I did not expect him to say that to me though.He was not someone who usually said deep things. “It’s not suppressing emotions that I do, I just don’t like dealing with very heavy emotions at certain times. I'd rather keep them for later.” I shrugged as if I just talked about something very common. Mitch was about to say something but then the flight attendant that

Journey To Healing

Linda's POVOn the next flight that was supposed to take us to Iowa, I was quiet. I was doing a lot of thinking and I think Mitch had a clue about that because he did not make me talk.Nor did he make me feel bad for not doing so.I did not even eat any of the food that was served on the flight, I only drank some tea.When we arrived, Mitch and I got off the plane and we walked in a comfortable silence after a few airport procedures. Then I broke the silence by asking, “How is Ben?” Mitch’s eyes lit up at the sound of my brother’s name. But I could tell that he was being a bit careful about how he would respond.“He’s fine. We got a new car and if I’m being honest, he hates that I'm here for this week,” he explained.“He’s been going on about getting this weird feeling since I told him about coming here for the conference,” he added.I chuckled lightly. I knew my brother and remembered very well that when we were younger, how he would always get these feelings sometimes.He would t

Maid Life Choices

Linda's POV“A maid?” He exclaimed. We were now in the elevator, heading up.I wanted to take him to his room so he could drop his things off, but mainly, I also wanted to know where he would be staying so if anything bad happened, I would know where to get him.I know, I know, I was being over dramatic. But you don’t know, my brother’s premonitions almost always happened.And as much as my heart still bled when I thought about what Mitch and Ben did to me, it did not mean that I did not still care for them.I certainly did and was not going to allow anything bad to happen to either of them.“Yes, Mitch, you heard me. I came here to work as a maid.”“Linda, are you joking? Because you must be.” He stepped out of the elevator when it had come to a stop, the automated doors opening.“And look…” he stopped in his tracks after I had stepped out of the elevator. “I don’t have anything against maids. I personally think it’s a great job and they are doing wonderful by helping to keep places

Linda’s Hidden Identity

Linda's POVI had my suitcase in his room and I wanted to get it but there was no way that I was going to do that. I was going to make sure to wait until he goes out before going in there to get it, with the pretense of cleaning.I headed to the elevator, livid about what had just happened. I wanted to rip Mitch’s throat out and wanted to break his engagement with my brother but I decided that I was just being impulsive. Even though I hated what he had just done, I was not willing to take my anger far.“Hi,” Someone said when I entered the elevator. The person was a girl my age and she looked Asian. I flashed her a warm smile despite how I felt. I was so proud and impressed by myself.Because honestly, I felt like breaking down almost every second, since I found out about Chris and Meghan.I was trying my best to push it all out of my head and pretend that it was all just a dream but man, my heart freaking hurt!“Um…I’m sorry to trouble you, but are you Linda Wells?” I was taken a

Financial Dilemma

Linda's POVDid this woman just ask me for money? The manager of all the workers of one of the biggest hotels in the country just asked me for money?“You know…as an incentive,” Nora said before giving me a wink. “It’s only fair since I would be putting my job and reputation on the line for you,” She added when she noticed I had not responded yet. Money was not the issue, I had a lot of that in my account. But my problem here was using it. I had a fair share of cash in my name but most of it was from Chris, a lot in his name. He had told me to use any of it if I wanted to but still…after what had happened with him cheating on me, I did not want anything to do with him. “Um…”“Is the money going to be a problem? Because dear, I can assure you that I have done my research and forty grand is nothing compared to what you and your billionaire husband have.” Oh, boy, she did not have a clue. She had no idea that my billionaire husband had cheated on me with a girl that looked…that look

An Intense Encounter

Linda's POVLooking into the forest green eyes of the guy, I found myself a bit flustered, and I could not tell why. Or maybe I could, maybe it was due to the obvious fact that the guy was very attractive. I really don’t get how anyone could reject him. He had it all; the money, the style, the fame, the influence. He was a whole package. “Hello there,” He spoke to me in a smooth voice. It was like listening to soft jazz on a wonderful evening while the gentle breeze blew. I don’t know what I expected him to sound like but I think one thing that I expected was a french accent. But there was none whatsoever. He spoke just like an american. From the way he was speaking, no one could tell he was even French unless they knew him to be. “Hi,” I replied to him, trying my best to be polite. But someone had to tell him, someone had to tell this guy to stop looking at me the way he was. It was really doing something to me. His gaze was so deep and purposeful that I had to look away almos

A Shocking Discovery

Linda's POVI knocked on the door lightly for a few more seconds before I finally reached in my uniform for the master key for the rooms I had been assigned to. It was not an actual key but a keycard though, but was somehow called a master key when it was given to me. I placed the object on the scanner and it made a small beep before signaling that the door was unlocked.I then opened the door and stepped into the room. A weird smell was the first thing that greeted me. I scrunched up my nose as I rolled the mop bucket deeper into the place. The smell only got stronger the more I continued walking. My eyes then landed on the bed. Something was under the sheets and it resembled a human. “Hello?” I rang out, trying to wake the person if they were sleeping. This was Mitch’s room so if anyone was actually under there then it must have been him. But I wanted to be professional so I said again, “Sir?” Still, there was no response. I had a bad feeling filling the pits of my belly as I
