Cindy took her eyes to the floor and bit her lower lip. Rhoda watched with folded arms.
Cindy sighed and looked at Ariana.
“Okay then. You’re given the permission to spy at him. See what he does, what he…eats, what he drinks- Cindy paused and inhaled deeply.
“Where he goes to, who he meets and much more” She added.
Ariana forced a smile.
“Its a little bit too much but I’ll try”
“Thanks…but make sure not to get caught” Cindy muttered.
“She won’t. She was a good spy then, huh?” Rhoda rolled her eyes and laid on the bed.
“I’m talking the single one” She further said and shut her eyes.
THE NEXT DAY**
Ariana sneaked into the hotel maid dressing room and changed into one of their outfit as disguise.
“I really need to see him,,, even if its from afar. I really miss him” She thought and wore a blonde wig which fell to her waist.
“I hope he doesn’t recognize me” She muttered and left the room.
She entered the kitchen and saw the maids talking the foods out.
“Sorry. I need the food, room 76 requested for” Ariana said.
They gave it to her and she walked out of the room.
After searching for the room, she got it but unfortunately, it seemed he wasn’t in.
She saw a note stamped on the door.
*Out. Bring the food later*
“Where did he go to now?” She sighed.
She heard music playing from a distance and gasped. It was Malcolm’s own music.
She quickly left the door and hid behind a wall. She watched and saw Malcolm walk close to the door.
He was holding his phone which was playing music. He was wearing a blue singlet over black shoes.
He had a face towel around his neck and he was sweating. He had a bottle of water with him.
“Gosh. I nearly forgot how gyms tastes like…” He smiled and pressed his code.
The door opened and he went in.
“What is his code?” She inhaled deeply.
***
“Gosh. I’m hungry. When will the food be ready, huh?” Malcolm thought as he entered the bathroom.
He took off his wears and turned on the faucet. The shower immediately let out cold water which poured all over his Șëx¥ body.
Minutes later, He came out with a towel wrapped around his waist.
He was about sitting on the bed when his eyes fell on the calendar. He took a pen and walked to it.
He circled 2 days earlier and wrote underneath… Olive-Cruz Tree.
He suddenly heard a knock and he slightly shivered.
“Who’s that?…I’m coming” He muttered and went to the door.
He opened it but saw no one. He looked around and his eyes caught the covered stainless plate and a bottle of champagne on a cart.
“Oh…It’s breakfast. She didn’t even take the cart along” He muttered and took the food and drinks in.
“His handsomness never fades” She smiled.
She took out the cellophane she had in her pocket and walked to the door.
She pressed the cellophane firmly on the numberic board of the door and slowly took away the cellophane.
Dinted marks of finger prints was seen on the cellophane.
Ariana smiled and began to trace the prints to the numbers, with her eyes.
“5….7…3… She paused her whispers when she heard the door opening.
She widened her eyes and looked up.
****
Malcolm came out with arched brows. He looked around and sighed deeply.
“Why do I feel like I’m being watched? Something isn’t right here” He said to himself and entered back into the apartment.
Ariana who was now hiding close to the wall corner exhaled in relief.
“I got the code but I still need 1 more number” She thought.
