*Mia Taylen Gideon's POV*
---
The camera shutter sounds were the only thing that I am hearing as I take pictures of the rose petals above the bubbles in the hot tub. Well, it's truly a magnificent view, and it's not every day that you'll get a chance to experience this kind of bath.
Then, I took a picture of my hand trying to get a hold of one petal, and it's perfect. It's just that photography is my favorite hobby, and it's so satisfying to see wonderful sceneries. Also, you can never go back to times that passed, so it's a good thing that this thing was invented to keep the captured moments.
And, as I am finally satisfied with the pictures that I have taken from the jacuzzi, the ocean view, inside the suite, and a few selfies, I decided to finally try the warm bubble bath. Damn, it
*Craig Wyatt Einar's POV*---I closed my eyes as I got the smell of my bewildered PA's weirdly good scent while I put her in my embrace."What is this all about, sir? What the fuck are you doing?" She whispered in my ear in panic, yet she's not hugging me back."Just do what I say, Maia, okay? Pretend to be my girlfriend. And, hug me back." I answered her back in a whisper, and I ordered her which she let out a scoff under her breath."Hell, no way in hell, sir!" She protested, and it's my turn to let out a scoff.
*Craig Wyatt Einar's POV*---The sound of silence greeted me when I stepped inside the suite after I have strolled at the promenade deck for about fifteen minutes. Now, I wonder if the drunk woman is already asleep in her room. Should I check her out? Hmm. No. She is old enough, and I bet that she is used to getting crazy drunk, which I am not aware of.Then, I went to the mini-bar at the corner to take up a sip of champagne before I'll head myself to sleep.And, to my surprise, the bottle that I have opened, earlier, isn't there anymore. Where...? Mia.
*Mia Taylen Gideon's POV*---I grunted in pain as I could feel myself about to wake up because my head is aching like fuck. Ugh, how much did I drink, last night? Damn, a fucking hungover is the reason why I don't want to get a taste of liquor. But, last night was like... Hmm, beer and vodka? Well, at least I still woke up this morning.Where is my phone and what time is it? Is it even still morning?Then, I turned to the nightstand, where I saw my phone. Hmm, no text messages from anyone? Oh, Luke, why haven't you texted or even called me since yesterday? He must have been so busy about their overtime, last night.And, as I look at the time on my phone, my eyes widened in shock as I have read the reminder that I have set yesterday, saying, "Breakfast meeting before heading to the conference together, 7:30 am"."Oh, fuck!" I cursed as I have seen that the freaking time is seven-fifteen, and I haven't even lifted my butt
*Mia Taylen Gideon's POV*---My ears are ready to hear some rants about why I was so damn slow in getting myself ready, and that we are very late. I don't understand if why didn't he went ahead.But, as I waited for him to open his mouth to spit fire at me, I didn't expect to hear all of the words that he uttered."Is your head okay? You can just stay here, and I'll order you some food for breakfast to be delivered here. And, you may take a rest until you'll feel fine." He asked as he stood up from the couch, and he told me, which I blinked my eyes many times to make sure that I am hearing all of it correctly. Am I dreaming, right now?
*Mia Taylen Gideon's POV*---"I'm so sorry, Mia. But... We can't be together anymore. I... I'm breaking up with you. And, I hope you will find someone that could love you truly and be the one that you need that can make you happy. I hope you understand." The voice of the man on the other line made my tears freely stream down from my eyes as I hear his words. No, why is he doing this to me? Am I really a bad girlfriend? Or, maybe I was just not a good one? Or, I could have not given him enough time? But, he was the one who is always busy. Maybe he just doesn't love me. No... Why am I always the one being left out?And, I tried to control myself from
*Mia Taylen Gideon's POV*---I walked briskly but cautiously on the cold hard floor of the hallway with my bare feet, and I got my shoes in my left hold while I grip tightly the card-sized knife in my right hand. In this way, I could fight for myself if ever I will encounter one of those terrorists.Damn, I still am dumbfounded with what I have heard from them. And, some people in authority should know about it all and stop it at all costs.As I have arrived in front of the door of the control room of the ship, I was greeted by a man in uniform that seems like a guard.
*Craig Wyatt Einar's POV*---"We should find a boat and go overboard, sir. ASAP." Mia told me, frantically, and grabbed the rope that has been hanging on the wall. We might use it under circumstances.And, I take a glance at the timer on my watch and saw that we only have eight minutes now. Damn, this might be the end of us.Feeling all the scared sensation a person can feel, I opened the door of the janitor's closet where we have been hiding. And, I hold the girl's hand in mine as we head to the stairs to the seventh deck where the lifeboats are stationed. We just need one.
*Mia Taylen Gideon's POV*---"Kindly get away from that thing, Mr. Einar, and hold this camera and this seabob," I ordered my clueless boss who has been tired of trying to pull the painter of the liferaft container, and still, I see no progress from his efforts because the painter's excess is still so long inside the container. And, he took the camera and the water toy as I hand them to him, so he could point the light at me. That's the only help that he can do.Well, I actually wonder if why can't he use his brain properly in this situation. It will only take you to place the bottom of your feet on the container to keep pulling it till it goes har

*Craig Wyatt Einar's POV* --- As I walked into the living room of the mansion, a bright smile quickly crept on my face when I got the sight of the person waiting for me. We are gonna go to work together. My new PA. Partner in All. "Mmm, nice hairstyle, Mr. Einar. Never seen you in that before. Your hairstylist seems to be really good." She remarked with a wide smile as she saw me, and I let out a soft laugh. "Yeah, I just... I just let her do what she wants. Well... It's time to make a few changes. But umm... Uh, never mind, yeah! Let's go?" I replied and asked her while walking closer to where she is, and she quickly went to walk to the door. I just want a kiss. Just one. Even just a quick one. Maybe she doesn't like my shark fin hairstyle? Hmm. It was my mother and the great Wa
*Mia Taylen Gideon's POV* --- Seeing him again after a long time makes me the happiest, and I don't know where to put the joy that I feel right now. I never expected any of this at all. It's really him. It's my man. It's my Cray. Though he looked a bit different because of his long hair, he still looks the same to me. He looks great with his new hairstyle, and I never really thought that he would be growing it long as I told him to. I thought we would be the ones to surprise him the day after tomorrow, but it is us who were shocked so much because of his unannounced visit. And now, witnessing his conversation with Wayne makes me feel more than complete. It is indeed a very magnificent sight to see. I finally see the resemblance
*Craig Wyatt Einar's POV*---While looking at the pretty little girl who was taken by the woman who has let me in this household from the arms of the girl who I used to call mine, I felt like I was dipped in the coldest bath while I felt so warm. I can't explain what I feel. I know it has been too long since we haven't heard anything from each other, and it's not impossible for her not to find a man who she loves and loves her back. Like, literally, every man who lays eyes on her would definitely fall. Who doesn't? She is everything that is amazing. He is certainly the luckiest person on Earth.I let out a heavy breath as I leaned down to pick up the thing on the couch. The thing that was the reason why I am here and have found her, unexpectedly. This belongs to her.After I got the
*Mia Taylen Gideon's POV* --- "Mum, will Andoo be okay there at the hospital for the dogs?" The curious little girl asked while settling herself in our bed, and I tucked her in. She has just finished her before-bedtime routine which is brushing her teeth, slipping in her favorite pajamas, and saying good night to her fishes at the aquarium on the left side of my study table. "Yeah, he will be fine, Wayne. I think he would love to see you there. Wanna go with me tomorrow?" I answered and asked her, which made her face lighten up. And she cheered and asked, "Yes, Mum, of course! Is he gonna go home already? I missed him so much." "Yep, he can finally go home. Also, we should go to the pet shop to buy our goldfish some food. So... You better sleep now so you can go to Andrew early.
*Craig Wyatt Einar's POV*---My jaw dropped in awe when the biggest creature in the whole wide world had just passed right before my eyes. It's a damn huge blue whale!"Now, that seems like a hundred times larger than our submarine, boss. Can you imagine if that thing would swallow our vehicle, sir? What do you think would happen?" Johan let out in amazement and asked me some absurd silly question."Johan, why don't you try to get closer to its mouth, then get inside it, and let's see what would happen? Hmm?" I answered him sarcastically, and he just laughed as he went to accelerate, then the idiot really did what he was told."What the fuck are you doing?" I cursed when I noticed that we were driving so close to the head of the hu
*Craig Wyatt Einar's POV*---The sound of every stroke of the pencil touching the paper is the only thing that I could hear, and I do love the sound of it. It's almost silent. And it's my only escape from the busy yet lonely world here in the office whenever the dismissal time comes.After sketching a few more touches of my masterpiece of the week, I let out a sigh as my gaze turned to the area where the owner of the face that I have been sketching for the last hour, used to sit and wait for any order that I will tell her. And a smile crept on my face as I remembered those times when she sits there, facing her computer, and wearing her grumpy face whenever I let her do something twice or thrice again and again just to mess up with her.Oh, Maia, when can I finally see you agai
*Mia Taylen Gideon's POV*---A deep sigh escaped my lips as I stared at the mountains where the mighty sun is on its way to make some other places on Earth morning again.It's the ninth sunset that I am looking at all alone, and I feel so blue even if the scenery before me surely is wonderful. We used to stare and appreciate the beauty of nature together while in each others' hold. And I just missed him so much. That's it. Because whenever I can witness this view, all I think about is him. Well, honestly, it's always him who is on my mind every second and every minute that passes since the time that I left him. I just can't force my mind and heart to forget him, no matter how hard I try. And these pictures on my phone don't help at all."That's the two thousand seven hun
*Craig Wyatt Einar's POV* --- "Craig. Son, that's enough. It's too early in the morning to be drinking booze. You haven't even eaten breakfast. And, I am not so sure that you did sleep last night. I believe it is gonna be okay. Give me that bottle." The woman who gave birth to me told me as she has seen me drowning my miserable self in alcohol again. I just woke up from an hour of sleep from overthinking everything that I am going through. I don't even give a fuck about my aching head from drinking lots of spirits last night. I thought I could forget her if I get too drunk to be thinking about us, yet I even cried out while looking at all our pictures on my phone like a hundred times and staying in our mini-ship right outside the lawn. And, now, I am looking at our pictures again and again. I won't get tired of it. Yes, I am
