Chapter 80
The day for the departure came. They were supposed to meet at Oliver’s house and from there, drive to the airport. But the
ladies were nowhere to be seen; it was already thirty minutes past the time they had agreed to meet.
“Damn it, why is that gender so slow in everything they do?” Oliver asked, while pacing around in his sitting room. He was there
with Sammy and the two drivers who would take them to the airport.
“Chill Oliver, they will be here soon, and Hawaii is not that far anyway,” Sammy replied.
Well, Oliver was not used to waiting for people and patience is another thing he lacked in life; he had tried to learn how to be
more patient in the past but he would just end up getting restless and annoyed because just sitting and waiting makes him feel
useless.
Oliver knew Aria would not pick his calls, they were only able to contact them through Rosie, he was about to call her again
when the doorbell rang.
“This better be them,” he muttered to himself and hurried to get the door himself.
He opened it and just like he expected, the three ladies were standing there; well two ladies and a young girl but it isn’t wrong
calling her a lady either, she was too smart and matured for her age.
“You are late,” Oliver muttered with a solemn face.
“Good morning Dad,” Lena greeted and walked into the house, leaving the other two ladies to do the explanation.
“Um... not that late, but if we don’t leave now, then we would for the flight,” Rosie said and grinned.
“Get the bags, everyone to the cars,” Oliver instructed the drivers. He stood there and watched them all live before he locked the
door and walked out to join them too.
They all got into the cars, the men in one car and the females in the other. Oliver instructed for the takeoff and the drivers obeyed
immediately; the ride to the airport was expected to take fifteen minutes of their time, but unfortunately there was terrible traffic
Just as they arrived at the airport, they saw their flight going up in the sky; they were late.
“Damn it!” Oliver cursed as he alighted from the car.
“Maybe this isn’t our flight,” Sammy said, trying to sound hopeful but it was useless.
“Get the bags out, I will go and confirm,” he said and walked towards the personnel block.
* * * * * * * * * *
They all gathered the bags from the cars while waiting for Oliver. Arianna was dressed in a large robe with sunglasses to cover
her eyes, she was just trying to stay in a disguise because she was certain that she might be recognized over there.
Hawaii was a home for tourists so they updated their guests with all types of information from around the globe.
“Mom, did you get Miss Sophia?” Princess Lena suddenly asked as it struck her mind.
Aria looked down at her and scratched her head. She was not sure if she had brought the Disney princess along because she
was packing in a hurry. The ladies had all woken up an hour later than scheduled so they had to do everything in a hurry.
“I don’t really know, Princess,” Aria replied softly, like she was scared of her daughter’s reaction and she was right to be scared.
Lena can be crazy at times.
Lena crumpled her face immediately, “You are not sure if you did? We have to check mom, I won’t be able to sleep without her,”
Lena grumbled.
“Listen, you are not that small anymore Lena, it’s time you learn that you have to give up on some things at times, you can’t have
everything forever,” she replied.
“So is that why I can’t have my Dad forever, even though I want to?” she asked immediately and Aria froze.
“You are still young Lena, just stay out of such issues, I don’t expect you to understand things like that at your age,” Aria said
sadly and looked away.
“Of course I understand mom, he is my family too and families stay together right?” she queried.
“Exactly, but you see he is not my family, he threw me out and that is why we can’t be together, so now stop asking anything
“It is alright Shorty, I brought your doll along,” Rosie, who had been listening to their conversation, said with a smile and Lena’s
face lit up.
“Thank you Aunty,” Lena replied and hugged her, not minding that she was being called Shorty. Rosie called her that because
she saw her like a short adult.
Shortly after that, Oliver walked back to them with a neutral expression on his face.
“What is the update, are we late?” Sammy asked curiously.
“Yes, we missed the Hawaiian Airline flight and the next one won’t take off till four hours from now,” Oliver replied and they all
groaned in disappointment.
“I knew we shouldn’t have heard those big belly burgers for dinner,” Rosie groaned and relaxed her back against the car.
“So are we going to wait till then?” Sammy asked again.
“You know me too well, I would rather visit the Casino than sit, doing nothing for four hours of my life. We are not waiting for the
next flight, I booked us a private jet already, it will be here in a few minutes,” he replied and the ladies squealed in excitement.
“Alright, you two can take the car back home, make sure that nothing goes wrong,” Oliver instructed the drivers.
“Alright sir,” they replied simultaneously and nodded. Their costume was quite fascinating, the white tux and pants with yellow
ropes on its shoulders and a white cap too, it was smart.
They stood there watching as the drivers took the cars away. Few minutes later, like Oliver had said, their private aircraft arrived
at the airport.
A man dressed like an official alighted and walked towards them. “Good morning Mr. Gomez, I would be your pilot today,” he said
and offered a handshake to Sammy.
Sammy coughed awkwardly, trying to give the pilot a sign that he was not Mr. Gomez but the man was not understanding.
“If you are looking for Mr. Gomez, then you are offering the wrong man a handshake,” Oliver said bluntly.
“Of course,” the man said and chuckled, then turned towards him. “I would be a fool not to know Mr. Stark Oliver Gomez, and I
would be an even bigger fool to try and shake his hands,” he replied jokingly and they all laughed
“A pilot with humor, that is new,” Oliver smiled and grabbed his briefcase, and then he walked to the aircraft. The others followed
immediately in a hurry. This trip was going to be a very exciting one and hopefully, it would give them all that they hope to get
from it..
