Chapter 22 - The Search is Over

"I was just kidding. Forget what the announcement that I've said. I must find

the right woman for me." He told them

smiling sincerely.

Part of the thirty thirdth wedding anniversary celebration was for them to stay overnight in their parent's home.

The 'hide & seek' family bonding was again done that night after dinner.

However, because Kelly could no longer

carry them, the moment he found them one by one, he would embraced them

while walking them toward their own bedroom.

That 'hide & seek' moment took Kenneth a long time to finish as his

son-in-law, Theodore and his granddaughter Liz Theomae increased the number of whom he would be searching.

Just like before, the last to be sought was Leonor. Upon finding her, they stayed in their bedroom still awake.

An hour after waiting, they stealthily went to the bedrooms of their children one by one. They kissed them on their forehead before closing the room.

Kenneth and Leonor did not skip kissing the forehead of their son-in-law and their grand daughter.

They went back to their own bedroom and continued counting the blessings that gave them.

Even though they had thanksgiving holy mass very early that morning, still they knelt down with one of their hands locked together.

"Our Lord, our God thank you for the blessings you have been giving to us. May you still lend us this life even though we're already fifty six years old.

May you let us guide more our children

not to get astrayed out of the path towards you."

They slept with smile on their young looking face.

After breakfast the next day, Kelly

was the first to leave as he had an early conference with the school personnel.

Lizbeth and her husband, Theodore and her daughter, Liz Theomae left after

lunch as it was an off duty of Theodore.

In Kelly's work his staff was relieved with the tension he used to give them during his presence. He was not harsh nor rude with them.

His sweet smile that was rarely seen was always plastered on his face that made him more fascinating to look at.

He was roaming to check every facility of the hotel when his assistant

approached him.

"Sir, these young teenagers here

were sent by their school for their immersion or on the job training."

"Well, you may orient them with the nature of their job and let our technician enroll them in the biometric for their regular daily attendance."

"Got it, sir."

When he was waiting for the elevator, he was able to hear someone from the group who remarked about him.

"The CEO has an enticing physique!"

"How do you know that he is the CEO?"

"I don't know. I just know it."

"Wanna bet with me?

Then they giggled.

Kelly who pretended not to be in an intent eavesdropping with the group's conversation was holding a smirk.

He was already inside the elevator

when he did not only smirk but chuckled

to what he heard from them.

Before going up to his suite on that

still youthful evening, he went to their resto-bar for his evening meal.

When he was seated on his favorite table in a corner near the counter, a young very attractive waitress got her order.

Asking him of his order, he was able to detect her voice.

"You're one of those on the job trainees here?" He inquired inquisitively.

"Yes, sir! Sir, may I ask something?" She requested.

"Go ahead, ask me."

"Are you the CEO of this hotel?"

"Yes. Why?

"out of curiosity, sir" Then smiling she told him to wait for his food for a while leaving him.

After a while she went back with a pitcher of cold water and a water goblet.

When she was putting them on the table an anaccidental brushing of their hands happened.

Kelly was surprised to have the weird feeling caused by that sudden short brush of her hand to his.

"What is she? a female plug that seep current from a male plug?"

Melly was his girlfriend for more than four long years but whenever he touched her elbow, whenever they held

their hands, whenever they kissed, he had never felt that spark.

"Yes, the weird feeling that I had a moment ago, was what they called as spark."

"Sir, here are your foods and enjoy eating them." The waitress told him

in her most pleasant voice that made

Kelly broke his reverie.

"Thanks." While saying this he held her hand to confirm the chemistry that

sparked so suddenly.

The waitress pulled her hand quickly as though he was a flame that burnt her.

Embarrassed, she did a brisk walking away from him as she was already done serving him his meal.

Kelly's age could not be deemed as a

naive guy. He noticed the reaction of the

young lady when with no purpose at all he held her hand. He should do the next

move for confirmation if both of them

could have felt their chemistry for each

other.

During breakfast the following day he was disappointed that the young lady was not there

What he did was to see and ask his

assistant the names and the area where each student was oriented & assigned for their training.

Not to be exposed with his personal

He borrowed the master list and had his

Xerox machine operator had it be photo

copied for him.

Her name is Zeanne Leigh Santos,

twenty two years old and her schedule

for duty was ten o'clock in the morning until seven o'clock in the evening.

It wasn't his habit to stay in his suite

on day time as he had his schedule to be

attended. It wasn't also his daily routine

to stay in that hotel in the morning as it

was scheduled in the afternoon.

But to realize his plan, he'd to have

changed his routine. He never left that

hotel from the moment he awaken in his

suite on it top floor.

Noon time, it was lunch time when

he called the rest-bar manager to let the

student who was on the job training to

bring up in his suite his meal for lunch.

His intention leaving the door ajar & unlocked, he stayed in the bedroom. She

arrived knocking and calling.

"Room Service, sir."

His excitement started to affect him but tried to calm down himself.

"Can you bring it in my bedroom?"

Zeanne Leigh detected that he was

in the bedroom at the left wing as she

tried to follow where his voice came.

"Sir, where will I put them?"

"There!" He pointed the table by the

window where they could have admired

the view while eating.

"Please stay to dine with me. I have

no appetite once I am eating alone here.

I was just busy to go downstairs to eat."

"Isn't it awkward sir to dine with you? I

am... I mean you're my boss."

"Oh, come'n. No one would ever know

that you. eat together with me. I'll handle

the matter for you should there would be an issue about it."

With his assurance, she gave in to

his request to dine with him.

He was so amazed with her when she ate heartily as if it was her last meal.

But despite of her appetite, she had her table manners and etiquette. Most of all she had a petite curvaceous body figure.

When the dishes were returned to the food trolley, Kelly helped her and was intentionally touching her hands.

Again the same reaction of the lovely

young lady was similar to last night's.

"Hey! Are you scared with me?"

"No, sir. Why do you ask, sir?"

"Well... every time I touch your hand

you immediately pulled it as if you were

burnt by me." While Kelly was telling her this, he was looking at her eyes to eyes.

Zeanne Leigh was the one who had averted her eyes out of the window with her expression of admiration of the view

outside.

It was her greatest mistake for Kelly

took it his opportunity to wrap her waist,

with his arms and locked his hands. Her back was facing Kelly who was brazenly

kissed her side nape below her ears.

She gasped and tried to struggle to get away from his tight embrace to no avail.

She didn't notice that they were already facing one another and Kelly

was already kissing her lips. She was

about to tell him to stop only to learn

that she gave him a chance to let his mouth sucked her tongue.

She was so vulnerable that all she did was to submit to his unstoppable desire for her.

Her reverie was regained when she

felt the sudden pain in her private part. It was too late for her to protest as he had already torn her most precious hymen which she would have let her future life partner to tear it.

Kelly, who at that moment enjoyed

the ecstacy of love making to a woman with similar magical current that ran in their veins had been alerted with her reddish eyes.

"Sweetheart, don't cry. I'll marry you."

Then to distract her worry that she

was already devirginized, he kissed her

gently as he moved at a slow pace afraid

that she might not be able to take the pain.

That day, he was unable to monitor

their school and the other hotel which is ten miles away from his Retro Hotel 1.

He repeatedly made love with her until the lady was drained to exhaustion.

The next day, he accompanied her in going home to tell her mother that he

wanted to get married to her.
