1036 Words
Agni walks in to her room to take a nap. Rhea also walks back to her room, but starts opening the drawers and cupboards frantically searching for something. The clothes are on the floor and the jewelry is hanging on to the edge of the drawer, clinging to the clothes.  Reba walks in and in shock, asks " Are you looking for something Ma'am, can I help you?" Rhea tired is kneeling on the floor, holding a glass of water in her hand turns her head toward Reba, " There was a red file in the cabin, I myself had kept it there did you take it?" the tone of her voice increases by the end of the sentence. "I am sorry, Mr.Dev asked me to take the file, the cheque book everything to Mrs. N's room" rubbing her sweaty palms together, she replies with a stammering voice. "Go get it now" She yells at Reba. Reba runs out, looking for Norma she asks for the other help if they knew where she was. She sees Norma drinking her wine and taking to someone on the phone. Reba walks up to her, and stands behind her and coughs to get Norma's attention.  Norma looks at her, but doesn't acknowledge Reba. She continues her conversation on the phone. After about twenty minutes, Reba walks back to Rhea's room. Rhea is sitting on the edge of her chair, Crossing her legs. She is biting her nails as she is worried about her belongings. Reba walks in " I am sorry, but Mrs. Norma is busy on the phone, I will wait for her and get the information once she is free." Rhea looks at Reba in anger, her face is red " when she is busy?" she howls. She gets up from her chair "where is she? let me go talk to her, Busy my ass." They both walk out, Rhea confidently walks muttering words as though she was rehearsing what she would want to say to Norma. Reba walks behind her like a timid rabbit, Not happy to be in that situation. They hear a helicopter hoovering above them, "what's that, who is expected here today?" She turns to Reba frowning.  Reba just nods her head, Not knowing who was coming there or going. As they walk out to meet Norma, Rob walks in greets Rhea, Wow the beautiful bride, They hug each other.  She smiles at him and still Norma is on her mind, she walks past him. "Where are you up to in such a hurry?" he asks in a pleasant voice. Still walking, Rhea turns to him and says loudly, so her voice reaches him as she is still walking, " I have to speak to Norma." She waves at him and walks by. With a concerned look, he starts running slowly towards her. "Hey, They both left." He touches her shoulder gently," Dev left earlier and N left a few seconds ago. Nobody told you?"  Rhea becomes agitated that she didn't know anything in this house and everyone else knew everything, However she kept her self calm, She didn't want to repeat her mistakes from home. she always lost all  battles due to her anger, and she wanted Ron to be on her side. So she plays it off cool. "Its ok, maybe she didn't want to disturb me and so she didn't let me know" Shrugs her shoulder, and smiles at Ron. "Did you need something? because I am the guy who can get you anything here" he declared. walking outside, she says " I am not sure if you would know, I actually had a RED file with me, it has my everything in that. I wanted to know if Norma had it, I want that urgently." She fumed. Snapping his fingers, "Red file, Red file " he tries to recall if he has seen such a file, " I am not sure of such a file, but N would keep any important file in her office, you can check it out there." he asserts. "Ok, cool. Now where is her office again" She asks in a demanding voice. Ron smiles, "You cant enter the room without her permission, she will be back in two days and then you can take care of it" he assures her. "Come on its a beautiful evening, lets open a champagne and enjoy the sunset. We are leaving in two days, and will set sail for a while, you will definitely miss the land. enjoy it while you can. Right?" he yammers. Rhea with a cold look replies "I am actually tired, and I like the sea anyway. So see you later. Smirking she walks back to her room. Ron stands there with a smile, with his hands in his pockets. Rhea asks for dinner in her room, Still pissed that she didn't get her cheque book. Ron knocks on the door, politely waits by the door for rhea to open it. She stomps her feet to the door, "Hi, trouble sleeping?" she asks leaning on the door crossing her hands.  "I brought dinner" he points at the tray behind him. With a smile he insists that they have dinner together. "Alright, Lets eat." She walks back into the room and sits on the chair, seemingly least interested. After a while, after the dinner both are squashed. The liquor was heavy and she needed it. Rhea opens up to Ron. Feeling a sense of comfort from him.  "You will not believe it but I have not spoken to Dev as much as I have spoken to you" She laughs loudly, holds Ron's hand and starts crying. "Hey, what's wrong?" He tenderly brushes her hair off her face with his hand. "Hey, look at me, Everything will be ok. Give it time." He assures her. Rhea looks up, and kisses Ron passionately. He hesitates at first however gives in. Ron stops Rhea. "was it not good" asks Rhea. "No ,No it was amazing. Really! I just need to figure.... we need to figure this out, what this is." looking down he frowns, rubs his face with his palm and looks at Rhea smiles and walks away.
