SHADOWS OF SYNDICATE

The Vacation

She was about to escape when the alarm went blaring, but she was gone before anybody could come. It was a real win moment for her. She thought to celebrate it with her siblings. They all enjoyed traveling. That's why she booked a VIP yacht. When she told her siblings, they all screamed in joy saying "Sis, you're the best!". They all waited eagerly for the day and also started packing their stuff a bit early.

Days passed, and it was finally the day of their first-ever yacht journey. When they got onto the yacht, It was a whole other world of luxurious interior and exterior designs and stuff. Inside the yacht, there was a huge chandelier made with diamonds and other expensive gemstones.

Alexel's POV:

I was astonished to see people having a unique sense of fashion. It was like a gala with crazy rich people. Some contests were hosted on the yacht as a beauty pageant, An art contest, and a singing contest. I saw some people playing pillow passing and others joining in gaming competitions. It was like everybody was there to win. I felt a bit anxious among them and just sat alone in a corner admiring the view. Just then, I heard someone whispering in my ears

"Beautiful, right?"

As I looked back, I saw a man with bright blue eyes which looked like the sea and

he was wearing an ordinary T-shirt and shorts and had a bracelet that looked like it was made of gold. He looked like a man straight out of a Hollywood movie.

"Hi, I'm Henry," he said while sliding in a handshake.

"You're new here I guess?" He added.

"Yes, you're right. I am new here." I replied.

"Are you by yourself ?" He asked.

"No, My siblings are here with me"

"You look like you're bored."He guessed.

"Yes, I just feel cut off"

"Well, I should make you feel much welcomed" He insisted.

"I saw your siblings. They are pretty well raised."

"All thanks to the one who raised them, "I uttered

"I forgot to ask you're name."He said

Just as I was about to tell my name my siblings pulled me aside to read them bedtime stories.

I couldn't talk to him again on that day.

The next morning, I caught him alone in the same corner where I was gossiping with him yesterday. He gave a gentle smile seeing me.

"I was waiting for you to come," He said

"I'm not that kind of a morning person but am I too late?"

"No, you're just at the right time. I don't recall you saying you're name." He uttered

"It's umm... Serena, Serena Wilde" I stuttered while saying

"And can I know you're profession?" I added

"I'm an FBI Agent you see." He replied warmly

"Oh my god, seriously? It's too cool to believe right now!" I replied in excitement

"Yeah, and here's my number call me when you need me or when you feel bored perhaps chat with me?" He insisted

"Why not?" I persisted

"After all you did make me feel welcomed that's why I owe you" I insisted

"Where are you from by the way?" I asked

"I'm from Los Angeles but I was born in California."

"Oh my gosh, I live there too but I was born in Georgia," I replied

"Well, I guess I'll be able to meet you there." He said

"Yeah, sure. Why not?" I hopefully replied.

The days finally came to an end. I got to know pretty much about him. It was an experience of a lifetime.

As we jumped on the couch all feeling drowsy, Diana, my 14-year-old sister started questioning me about that guy.

- "Who's that man you were talking to"

-"Well, He's an FBI Agent." I replied

-"No way, That's so cool!"

Then all of my siblings started insisting I tell them more about him. But he was still a stranger to me because I didn't know that much about him and I felt uneasy every time I talked about him to anyone. It was already late that's why I put them to bed.

"Phew! That was a long journey," I said to myself.

Then, I started to recall all the scenes with him and slept like a baby.
