Chapter Five - The hotel

1045 Words
Jasmine’s point of view. If there was ever a person who was lazy to read through documents or even menus, that would be me! Yes Me! I so much hate reading. I didn’t even bother to read through the document that Miguel sent me, but just kept myself busy looking at the man’s life. I can’t believe I was going to get myself involved with such a wealthy man. The entire night I spent time thinking of how I would be able to impress Javier and make sure that I didn’t embarrass him. When I woke up the next day, I packed and cleaned the house for Miguel before I decided to go and get my hair fixed. My phone rang before I could even leave the bedroom. “Hi Cuz…. How are you?” I picked up cheerfully. He didn’t come home last night, and I am sure he was working the entire night. “Morning… Are you already up?” He questioned me. “Yes. What’s up?” “I need you to meet you with someone. The person has all your documents ready and your new accounts.” He said to me as I swallowed hard. What was he saying right now? “Okay? Where is he? I will meet him there” I said to him, and he sighed heavily. “Jazzy? Are you sure about this? Because once you meet that man there’s no going back?” He asked me and I swallowed hard just thinking about it. “I am sure… Now the address?” I questioned him and he let out a sigh through the phone. “I will text you. Make sure that you use an uber.” He said to me, and I chuckled, thinking he must be joking. “I am serious. Just use the Uber and let me know how it goes”, he emphasised. “Okay! I will use Uber. Now send the address” I said to him as I walked out of the house, walking to the front so that I could find an Uber for myself. The address arrived and I looked at the text that he sent to me, and it was around the downtown area. I finally managed to find an Uber and got in. “Please take me here” I said to the driver. The man seemed to be in his late forties or early fifties. He looked at me, then the address. ‘What are you going to do here?” He questioned me as I swallowed, hard thinking about it. “I am meeting a friend” I said to him, and he chuckled softly, “Dressed like that?” He questioned me as I nodded my head, looking at myself, wondering what he meant looking like that?” “The place is for the elite class. Just looking at you, I can see a problem with you fitting in”, he said to me as I swallowed hard. I wasn’t looking that bad. I wore a floral shirt with blue jeans and sneakers and my hair tied up in a bun. When I arrived at the place where I was going, it was a luxurious hotel where I was going. “Thank you.” I said to the man as I stepped out of the Uber, making my way to the entrance. I walked into the hotel, and I felt uncomfortable because of my outfit. I took out my phone and decided to call Miguel. I tried to call him several times and he didn’t pick up him, I walked towards the reception to see if I could get any information. “Good morning!” I greeted the arrogant woman who first looked at me from head to toe before she responded. “Good morning, Ma’am, how can I help you?” She faked a smile at me as I looked at her. “Well, I am meant to meet someone here. I don’t know where exactly to find him. His’s his name is Mr. White” I said to her, and she smiled, waiting for me to explain myself to her. “Unfortunately, I can’t hello you ma’am, we have a lot of Mr. Whites in the system so unless…” She wanted to say to me I sighed heavily, taking out my phone. “Listen, I was given this address and that I should come here and meet Mr. White. I don’t know any of there names apart from this”, I said, showing her the screen of my phone. She moved closer to look at the screen. “Forgive me Ma’am, I didn’t realise that you were a guest of Mr. White. Please come this way” she said, leading the way for me to her colleague. He was a young man probably in his thirties and well dressed in grey trousers, white shirt, and a black jacket. The crystal-like hotel was something that I couldn’t even begin to describe with words as I followed the man behind. We arrived at the secluded room on the twelfth floor, and he knocked twice before handing me the key card. “Mr. White will be with you shortly”, the man said to me as I thanked him while entering the room. I took a deep breath and walked into the room. It was a luxurious room with a white couch, everything was black and white in the room. I walked around the room before I went to settle down on the couch, anxiously waiting for the man who was coming to see me. I sat back when I heard the door open. I quickly moved and sat on the age of the couch as I waited for the man to walk in. I took a deep breath, looking at the door slowly open. What was happening right now? Who was the person I was meeting that everyone was so scared of? “Hello sir,” I quickly stood up as the door opened. What was he doing here? I thought I was meeting someone else. Oh my God! I was even under dressed to be in the same room as him. What was I going to do?
