Jack pretended to look a bit surprised. "So are you like really famous, back in film industry. Though I do remember giving you an award for best actress. Do you have like many fans?" The boy asked, pretending to sound curious and surprised.
"Ahh! You will be surprised. I have thirty million followers on just my i********: page. All my movies have been a platinum hit, and this is the second time that I have been given this award. Last time also you were the chief guest, but you had refused to come due to some prior commitments! So somebody else gave me the award." The girl reminded her.
"Ahh! I see. Actually I had no prior commitments, but I just avoid going to such parties. I am an introvert person or you can say, I prefer working for my company rather than attending events!" Jack smirked.
"Ahh! Yes, that is what everybody in audience was also saying. That you never come to the parties. This time many of them had seen you for the first time and were surprised that you actually came!" The girl smirked.
"Hmmm! I just accepted the offer, out of no particular reason!" Jack glanced at the beautiful girl with longing eyes. "They had been inviting me since long, so I did not find it appropriate to reject them, over and over again."
They both smiled at each other and took a sip again of their drinks.
After they both finished of their glasses, Claira smiled slightly at the boy. "It was nice talking to you Jack. I think, I should now take a leave. I have to take a shower and then get ready. I will see you in the exhibition!"
"Alright then! See you!" Jack held out his hand and they both shook their hands smiling at each other, after which Claira started swimming towards the stairs of the pool.
Jack tilted his head a bit and glared at the girl's assets and smiled admiringly. The girl halted near the stairs and held the metallic bars to stand upright on stairs.
As soon as the girl's beatiful body emerged out of water, Jack gaped at the girl's behind, just slightly covered in a pink bikini bottom. "Wow!! Just look at that hot body!!" Her curvy white and tonned back, assentuated her heavy yet tonned hips. She seemed to take a lot of care of her figure. Jack could feel his rising manhood, looking at the girl and he suddenly averted his gaze back at the sea, as the girl was about to turn again, towards him.
Claira turned to look at the boy who was still standing in the same spot and gazing ahead towards the sea. "Wow! It is rare to meet a guy, who does not oggle you or keep starring at you." She started wiping her body with her towel and wore her pink colored matching transparent sarong, still looking at the boy.
Soon the girl started walking away towards the entry door and Jack once again gaped at her delicious figure, upto his hearts desire.
Jack looked at the beautiful vast sea, still thinking about the girl. He ordered for a third glass of wine and took a long lap in the meanwhile, in a highly pensive mood. What the hell am I even doing here? The girl is not even thinking about me! Why am I even putting in so much effort!? Why the hell did I even come to this cruise?
Jack quickly swam back, and chugged down the glass of wine in one quick sip, burning his throat. "Ohk! Now stop acting like a heartbroken man! You have a conference meeting and an exhibition to attend." He quickly climbed up the stairs and cleaned the water droplets with a towel, murmering to himself. "Like a fool I have invited the girl to exhibition. It will do nothing just make me crave for her more. Soon, the girl will realise that I am also a fan and will stop talking to me!"
He wore his gown again and started walking upto his room. As soon as he was about to unlock his room, he glaned towards Claira's room a d suddenly her room's door flew open and Claira came out, in a white bathing gown and wet hair. She seemed to have just emerged out of the shower and this time Jack could not help but stare at the girl's beautiful face. The girl had used no make up at all, and Jack could swear that she had never looked so beautiful and innocent in any of her premiers or movies. Her hair were messy and wet, some of them falling on the face. Her fair skin around cheeks and neck were slightly blushed, probably from taking a hot shower.
They both looked at each other, and Jack was starring at the girl, completely like a love struck teenager. Only his tongue was not hanging out of his mouth.
"I ...I was just going to my sister's room. What are you looking at?" Claira frowned looking at the man.
"You..You are Claira?" Jack spoke up, regaining his senses, and cursing himself internally.
"Umm...Why do you ask that?" Claira frowned.
"Well, you suddenly look, little bit, pretty good to me. You should not use any makeup at all. You do not need it! Bye!" Jack opened his room's door and rapidly entered, slamming the door on girl's face.
Claira closed her eyes at the loud sound of the door, being slammed right in her face.
She then opened her eyes and gaped at the door in horror. "What was that? Was that an insult or a compliment??? One minute he is talking normally and the other minute he is slamming the door on my face." Claira's anger fummed up again, as she stormed towards her sister's room. "Just who does he think he is? How dare he comment on my looks and slam the door on my face. I am not going to his exhibition at all." Claira halted near her sister's room's door and made a sad face. "But if I do not go, how will I find a groom for myself! Arrghhh!!!" The girl wanted to pull her hair in frustration.
She calmed down a bit and pressed the door bell, of her sister's room.
The door flew open and a young girl of about twenty, pounced on Claira happily, huuging her.
"Claira!! Finally!!"
"Hi little sister. How have you been?" Claira hugged back the girl lovingly, kissing her head.
"Good! And very excited. Where is Ivan? I want to meet him right now!!" The girl clapped happily.
"Come inside Steph! I have to tell you something. It is urgent!" Claira held the girl's wrist taking her inside the room.
Stephy, was the only daughter of Claira's adoptive parents. They both though not related by blood, have been thick friends, ever since Claira started living in their house. They loved each other like sisters and shared everything with each other.
