Ravishing Desire

The Flight

Ayanna’s Point of view

Looking at how last night I spent the night, I could not believe that I was with someone new. I only had one man I usually allowed to be with me, but last night was something else.

I was with someone new and he knew exactly was I wanted and where to touch me.

“What’s wrong? You look to be in deep thoughts today?” Charlotte questioned as she walked to my desk. I faked a smile as putting down the pen I had in my hands.

“Nothing really, just thinking about the new product. I am still…”

“Skeptical?” Charlotte finished my sentence

“Yes, I just don’t think at this point we need to look at new products. We have done…” I wanted to say, and she rolled her eyes, mimicking what I was saying.

‘Ayanna… I know you don’t want to invest in new products but people have been requesting that we should start producing. Trust me, this will work” She said to me, coming to lean on my desk as I nodded my head.

“Okay. No worries… Just don’t forget, three months and no 0proper sales I am canceling it,” I said pushing my chair behind and standing up.

“No worries,” She said with a smirk on her face, I walked over to my coffee table pouring for myself.

“Would you like some?” I questioned her as I raised my eyebrows.

“No, thanks… I am meeting with Justin later for” She said winking at me, I chuckled turning around and pouring for myself a cup of coffee.

“Are you working late today?” She questioned me as I went to sit back in my brown leather chair.

“Well, I have lots to do before I leave,” I said to her as I placed my cup of coffee on the table

“Yes, you do.  But also, your flight is in 17 hours. You need to rest” she advised me as I nodded my head, pursing my lips together. I usually did that when I want to get rid of someone.

“What time are you meeting Justin?” I questioned her and she looked at her watch, “In an hour. Why?”

“Are you going dressed like that?” I questioned referring to her baggy outfit. She wore a grey office pant and a white shirt with a black jacket.

“What’s wrong with my outfit?  I feel great” She said looking at herself, I furrowed my eyes nodding my head before I sipped from my coffee.

“I have a dress in the car I got from the laundry, why don’t you wear that?” I offered her and she shook her head.

“Unfortunately, I am comfortable…. Matter of fact, let me get going now” she winked at me before leaving my office. I scoffed, continuing to sip on my coffee.  I had a flight the next day at 10 am for the CEO summit, but I still had so many things pending to work on.

I folded the sleeves of my white shirt and tied my hair behind so I could bury myself into work. By the time I was done, it was only 2 am; I grabbed my things and all the documents I could work on while I am away for the next couple of days and left for home.

I had to rest for a few hours before getting on that flight.

The next morning, I woke up very early checking if Charlotte had received my text message. I had asked her to come and take me to the airport.

She had replied with a thumbs up, and I scoffed at the thought of it. I dragged myself out of bed and went to the bathroom to shower. After finishing to take a shower, I came back to my room and Charlotte wasn’t here.

I hated packing clothes for a trip but she insisted that I go for this Summit, I only wished it was worth compared to what happened last time I went for one.

“Ayan?”  I heard Charlotte’s voice coming towards my room. I didn’t answer because I knew she will let herself in my room.

“Hey?  Is this when you are waking up? Wow! You finally slept?” She questioned me as I raised my eyebrows. I looked at the time and it was only 7 am.

“Well, I have a long flight, so yeah. I needed to rest” I said to her going to sit in front of my mirror so I could get ready, I saw her through the mirror roll her eyes walking to my closet to get my clothes.

“I have all the documents ready for Martin Smith, you can take them to him later on,” I said to her as I finished up on my makeup, I quickly brushed my hair before going to get dressed, I wore jeans, black blouse, and a white jacket.

I always loved looking sophisticated whenever I am going.  After I finished getting ready, I went to check my mails as Charlotte chatted me up.

“We should get going now before you miss your flight,” She said to me as I quickly responded to one mail.

“Okay, let’s go!” I said to her, standing up as I waited for my laptop to shut down.

“You packed everything?” I questioned her and she chuckled, “Do you know you ask me that question every time you are flying?” She questioned me, causing me to raise my eyebrows.

“I do?”

“Of course! Don’t worry, I know that you have your preferences with this,”, she said to me as I nodded my head.

She was right; I had preferences for the kind of body lotion and other things I need when traveling. Also, I never enjoy wearing dresses when I am flying. So she knew not to pack that.

I made my way to the car, taking my small bag with me, “Do you know any of the other companies who have confirmed their participation?” I questioned her as she buckled up.

“Not really, I know that by the time we were booking only a few slots were left,” She said as I nodded my head, I sighed heavily letting her drive to the airport. I didn’t want to distract her with my questions.

We arrived at the airport and I took my bag; I didn’t want her waiting for me to check-in because she had other things to be working on.

“I will see you in a few days then,” I said to her as she looked at me

“What?” I questioned, seeing she wasn’t responding.

“I hope you find an attractive ma where you are going.” She said, and I scoffed, shaking my head as I turned away from her. I didn’t want to spend so much time talking about men with her.

“I love you” She shouted after me as I put on my shades lifting my hand waving at her without looking at her.

I quickly checked in and went to wait for boarding time. I still had some time till we could board, so I just went through some emails on my tablet.

When it was boarding time, I quickly made my way to the terminal I was using. As soon as I got on the plane, I looked for my seat. I sat comfortably relaxing when I saw Robert. Just what I needed! I thought to myself as I watched walk over to the seat a row away from me.

I hated this man with everything in me, and the fact that he was going to be sitting a few feet away from me just made me more upset.

I only hoped that he would not be attending the same summit with me, but looking around the first-class lounge I knew he was because it was full of all those CEOs, I knew from town.

“Well…. If it isn’t the….” He was about to say when he stopped near my seat.

“What do you want, Rob?  I am sure you can see I am not interested in talking to you,” I said to him as he chuckled looking at me.

“Then I will leave you to it,” He said to me walking away. That was so strange to him. He usually would say something to me until he gets his way, but he just walked away today.

I focused on my notes, trying to forget that he was on the same plane with him.

*********

After hours of flying the plane finally touched down and as soon as they cleared us to get off, I grabbed my bag and things leaving first.

“Hey, Torres! It was good to see you” He shouted after me as I scoffed making my way out of the plane into the terminal. We had just arrived in Florida for the summit and I knew this was not the last time I was seeing Robert.

I only hoped he wouldn’t ruin my time here, I planned on getting more companies to let her supply our products to them through this summit and I wasn’t planning on letting Rob ruin that.

I got in the car I had hired and drove off to the hotel where I was going to be staying. I just didn't realize that this summit was going to be bringing a lot of things into my life
