"Ahh! I understand. It is just the way I don't understand the business news. Well, I guess we are just interested in our respective fields of work!" Claira smiled a little looking at the boy. He was now setting his hair backwards, with his wet hands. Claira turned away her gaze, trying not to admire the boy secretly, in her heart. To her surprise, the boy had an amazing slang and an alluring deep voice. He was a pleasant person to talk to and apparantly, all the girls in the cruise were eying him lustily.
"Hmm! So what does your family say about all this?" Jack asked the girl finishing his wine glass.
"Well, honestly they do not know about it yet. Infact, I can never think of telling this to them. They have done me a lot of favours, I can not just hurt them like this. Already marrying Ivan was against there wishes, but they agreed as they saw my happiness. But I guess, they could see it already, that the man would dump me. My mom would often say that to me too, but I never really listened!" Claira smiled sadly, looking at the sea ahead. The air had made the earlier water droplets on her body to dry away. She was now completely dry from above her waist and Jack once again could not help but look at her awsome body, again and again.
"A favour? Family never does a favour to you! They do it out of love Claira. If I tell something to my sister, it is not because I am doing a favour to her, it is because I love her a lot and care about her!" Jack frowned looking at the girl's pensive face.
Claira chuckled at the boy's words and turned to look at him. "You really do not know any thing about hollywood news, don't you!"
"Umm..Why do you say that?" Jack frowned.
"Well, they are my adoptive parents, who took me in when I was fifteen years old. I stayed with them for three years, untill I went to the acting school." Claira smiled. "They have been very nice to me. I lost my parents in an air- crash and my adootive parents were my father's best friends. So they decided to adopt me and gave me all the love and support. I was the only child of my parents. I could not live with them much due to collrge and now my career, but I know the three of them will always support me. No matter what! That's why, I decided to not run away from the cruise. I could have done that easily, telling the media, I missed it. But then, I know, it will effect my parents and my sister too." She smiled sadly, looking at Jack.
"Hmmm! I understand you. Do you remember the 9/11, tragedy, involving the twin towers?" Jack heaved a deep sigh.
"Yes! Offcourse!" Claira frowned looking at the man's sad face.
"My parents were a victim of it too! Leaving behind me and my sister. We were kids back then, but then had to handle it somehow. My sister gave me all the support, being the elder one. I would say, I am blessed to have her. She is more like my mother now!" Jack smiled thinking about his sister.
"Ahh! You have a sister! What does she do?" Claira smiled empathatically.
"We both take care of our dad's company now. Trying to work hard, to not let his name down!" He sighed. Claira could see the light reftection of tears forming in his eyes. "Yeah! She is happily married now! To my best friend. They have a five year old naughty son too. So yeah, all is good!!" Jack smiled looking back at the girl.
"It is tough! I do understand that Jack!" Claira patted the boy's shoulder, nodding her head in approval. "It's normal to feel low about it. I miss my parents too a lot!! You don't have to hide it from me. I will understand it!" Claira smiled, choking her throat too.
Soon the waiter came, and placed down two more glasses of wine, in front of them.
They both picked up one glass each and raised a toast. "To our parents up there. We love you and miss you so much!" Claira grinned, looking up at the cloud covered sky.
Jack looked at the sky too, raising his glass. "Ahh!! I miss you mom and dad!! Dad, hope you are liking what me and Jo are doing with your company!!"
They both clinked their glasses, smiling at each other. "Cheers!!!" They both took a sip from their glasses, looking again at the sky above.
Claira turned to look at the boy again. "So, what time is the exhibition?"
"It starts at 7:00pm, approximately, three hours from now." Jack smiled, replying to the girl. He could not help but stare at the girl's breasts again and again. The two cups of her bikini top, had a hole between them, giving Jacob a good view of her left boob. Why is she so hot? And if she had to be this hot, why is she not marrying me instead. I swear, I would not have let her leave the bed for atleast ten days.
"Great!" The girl smiled a bit.
"So are you coming?" He finally turned her gaze towards her beautiful face.
"Offcourse. I can not let people make fun of me. I have to find a suitable groom anyhow!" She pursed her lips in nervouseness.
"So, this marraige proposal, will be like a normal wedding proposal or some contractual kinds of wedding?" Jack asked the girl with curiosity, as if he was the one signing up for it.
"Well, I think, it safe to have a contractual wedding, with a promise to get a divorce within one month! I don't want the guy to cling by my side all the time!" Claira frowned and nodded her head in disapproval.
"Ahh!! But if you will marry a fan, then why would he agree to leave you?" Jack questioned again in confusion
"Exactly! That is why, I wanted somebody who is richer and more successful than me. Also, who is not my fan!" The girl appeared to be once again in a pensive mood.
Jack was earlier about to tell her, that he was a crazy fan of hers, but then he suddenly sealed his mouth. The girl needs a non-fan? I am the one! I do not like you at all. Nor did I come to this ship, chasing after you! I am the perfect candidate! Just choose me!!!
