Chapter 36.
Victoria POV
Sighing, I finish folding that t-shirt to put it in my suitcase, biting a lip softly. How much luggage should I bring? I already know the place we're going to together with Dominik, but I'm still having a little trouble deciding what I should or shouldn't bring, as I feel so indecisive. Should I bring more clothes? Should I bring fewer clothes? What should I do?
In these moments, when I feel so confused, I really wish my mother was with me, as she usually helps me decide.
"Aren't you ready yet?" Dominik asks me, looking at me from the hallway, "Wait... Are you still packing?"
Damn, I had forgotten that after bringing my bags from downstairs into the apartment, I didn't close the door. So when Dominik had walked that way, he stopped in the hallway to see me.
"Don't worry, you told me we had to leave at 3 PM" I remind him.
"Victoria, it's already 3 PM," Dominik tells me in a very bad mood.
Incredulous, I quickly grab

Dominik POVFeeling very frustrated, I type rapidly on my phone, arguing over messages with one of the employees of the hotel where Victoria and I are going to stay this vacation.There was a mistake with our reception for the hotel we will be arriving at, as when my secretary booked the room and made the arrangements, she clarified that it was a room for newlyweds having their honeymoon. So without asking us, as a sort of "courtesy" of the hotel, they arranged my room with Victoria in a romantic way, putting in all sorts of details that any other newlywed couple could wish for, except Victoria and me.Fortunately, I realized this before arriving at the hotel, as with Victoria's delay and our flight, I had to talk to the hotel to explain that we would be arriving a little later than expected at the hotel for the reception. And when I contacted one of the employees to explain the situation, it was she who very happy and innocent, told me that they had put romanti

Dominik POV"So this is it?" Victoria asked in surprise, looking out the car window, "It's a beautiful hotel!"It already seemed a normal thing to me to see Victoria being surprised by such tiny things like that, seeing luxurious hotels or big cars, as I think Victoria hasn't seen in person this kind of things ever, as she herself was a normal, common person like anyone else, so she wasn't used to the life of high-class people. I think Victoria is such a common person, that before this trip, she did not have a passport, as she had not had the opportunity to travel abroad ever, so her first time was with me and for which I need a passport for the first time by my side."Yes, it's the hotel I booked for our trip" I lied to Victoria."You arranged this trip for us? That's impressive... It must have been very complicated."I absolutely had not organized anything for this honeymoon trip, I had no idea about this kind of trip, to tourist places and to do

Victoria POVFurious, I slam the door shut behind me, entering the main room of the suite by myself. Still unable to recover, I look around at the whole room arranged in such a disgusting way. There are rose petals on the bed forming a heart, there is also another bottle of champagne in a cooler, there are strawberries with chocolate in a box, and several scented candles giving a "romantic atmosphere". Seeing those lit candles on the nightstands around the bed, I can finally identify the source of the sweet and unpleasant smell I felt when I entered the suite, all that smell was coming from those candles, which made me feel so unpleasant.Walking quickly, I approach the bed and blow out the candles, more and more disgusted and intoxicated by the unpleasant aroma they give off, so sweet and strong. In the same way, I take the sheet that covers the bed and cleans it of all the rose petals, leaving them on the floor. And taking the bottle of liquor and the strawberries, I

Victoria POV"So how much are those keychains?" I ask looking at the items in the stores."They're $50 each" The saleswoman answers me kindly.Smiling somewhat uncomfortably, I give them one last look and reply, "Thank you very much, I'll be back after I walk around a few times."Smiling and saying goodbye to the kind saleswoman, I walk away as fast as I can from that place, practically running away, since that place had incredibly expensive things. I think that after spending some time wandering around this place, I begin to realize the sad reality that I am too poor to be able to enjoy this trip in all its conditions.While it is true that many of the tourist activities I am doing are free for me, since that idiot Dominik paid for everything and I just have to go and enjoy myself, and likewise, my room and food are paid for, outside of the hotel everything else comes out of my own pocket. So sadly I realize that my savings and the little money my

Dominik POVHow could I explain to Victoria what happened? I know it was my mistake, from the beginning I should have been honest and told her that I had nothing to do with the organization of this damn trip, I should have told her that I only gave the money and entrusted it to someone else. But now thanks to my lies, she thinks I organized everything, and she blames me for things going so wrong at the beginning. At this point, I'm not interested in lying to Victoria anymore, I know it will be embarrassing, but it's better to tell her the truth about the whole trip thing and apologize for it. From my own experience, I think the worst thing there is to lie to try to cover up your mistakes, in the end, you end up getting more entangled with your lies, and it will be harder and harder to be able to admit that something went wrong.Still, Victoria won't let me talk to her, just like what happened when we fought in my office and I yelled at her, she just avoids me and runs

Dominik POVSilently, I stared at the sea below the boat, through which we could observe beautiful reefs at the bottom of the water, as well as fish and other marine animals as we sailed along. The trip was calm, at a slow speed, so as not to make the passengers who were taking the ride dizzy and to allow us to observe the scenery calmly. Many people were sitting in seats that were in the bow arranged for passengers, others were in the ship's dining room eating some desserts or drinking coffee, and most were spread all over the top of the ship, near the security fences taking pictures or looking at everything with curiosity.And even though it was such a peaceful trip, in the middle of the sea and in the middle of beautiful scenery, there was one little thing that bothered me. Maybe my bad luck, today in the morning the weather on the island was not so good, here it is usually sunny and warm, but there are also days when there are quite a lot of rains and strong winds,

Victoria POVI fall to my knees on the floor, practically vomiting water, feeling my body shaking and wet, still trembling with fear."Breath, take a deep breath" Dominik urges me, gently patting me on the back.Everything feels so confusing, I don't even remember well what happened. I was on the other side of the ship, and when I felt the rain coming down, I thought about going to the cafeteria to take shelter, as my bag was cloth and I had important things in there that I didn't want to get wet. So walking slowly through the crowd of other passengers, I felt from one moment to the next how the ship moved in a very abrupt way, but with nowhere to hold on to, I was practically thrown out of the ship into the air, and then fell into the water. Then I remember the most desperate feeling of my whole life, as I saw everything completely black in front of my eyes, and I felt the cold water around me pushing me and sinking me deeper and deeper.I felt that I wa

Victoria POVSighing, I watch as the rain is about to end, and as now only small drops fall on the beach and on the sea in the distance, while the sky also starts to clear. I don't know how long I've been here next to Dominik, under this tree and freezing to death because of the rain and the freezing atmosphere, but I guess it's quite a long time, as the rain is almost over and everything has started to calm down.Still turning my back to Dominik, I shiver slightly, as the cold is really strong, and all my clothes are wet. And being in this difficult situation, I start to complain to myself, for having brought these unwarm clothes even though I saw the cloudy sky in the morning, for having been so careless on the boat, for even getting on that boat...And as I think about that, letting myself be swept away by the sadness and despair I feel in that instant, I can't help but start crying. Everything felt so confusing and at the same time so desperate, I just want
