Twenty five

Liv



I arrived at the airport in Tokyo and felt the anxiety Crip in. It wasn't my first time arriving to a place I wasn't familiar with, i mean I travelled all the way from Ireland to get married but Japan was somewhere I never imagined being too.



I followed the large number of people who were walking out after clearing until I reached the receiving section.



I saw a man standing by the ribbon staring aimlessly at the crowd I was in with a sign having my name boldly written on it. He had a bored expression on his face.



That must be my ride. I walked up to him and smiled.



" Am Liv Williams" I introduced myself.



" Zarke, follow me please" he said coldly and lead the way out. I followed him with a safe distance between so that I didn't get lost.



He personally helped me get settled in the room I was assigned to.



" Thanks for helping." I said to him.



" No need to. Damnon will be here soon. In the mean time you can enjoy the luxury the hotel has to offer. See yah." And he left.



I sighed and turned.



I unpacked my bag to get out a few things I needed at the moment.

I got my phone out and thought of dad again. It was almost a week now and he hadn't talked with me.



I dailed his number and it said the same thing it always said each time I tried to call it. The number isn't available.



I walked to the bathroom and splashed some water on my face to relax my nerves. Why Dad wasn't picking up, I didn't know! And that made me worry.



" What to do?" I asked myself as I looked at the magnificent bathroom.



It was beautiful and all white. The shower at the centre of the big room with glass walls looked very attractive.



I decided to take a bath. Taking off my cloths and turning on the heater, I took one of the most nice showers I had had in a long time. That was until....



" What?" I exclaimed as I tried to push the door open again. It didn't barge!. The steam in the shower was starting to suffocate. I tried opening it again but it was sealed shut. No!

" Hello." I called with a hopeless hope that someone would come. Well no one came for almost 20 minutes.



I kept banging the door and screaming for help but no one came.



" Please someone help!" I called but no one came. I leaned back on the wall trying to think of something to do. My phone was with my cloths on the sink. Behind this glass door.



Another 10 minutes went by and I still hadn't figured out what to do. God help- I cried inwardly and the man helped.



" Room service..?" I heard a male voice coming from the bedroom. Thank you!



" Help!" I screamed." Please help am stuck in the bathroom. Hello... room service?" I cried loudly with all my might. I couldn't stand the room anymore.



" Is someone here?" I heard the person walk towards the big bathroom.



" Yes please help. I have been stuck in here for almost an hour." I exaggerated.



" Oh am so sorry. I will go get the mechanic to come fix the door." He said hastily. " Please stay calm." He advised.



" What! Don't leave yet. Can't you use something there to pick the lock or something?" I didn't want to stay in this place any longer.



" I will be back, just stay calm and don't go anywhere." He said in his asian accent. Stay here? Was I going anywhere?. Some people. I rolled my eyes at that thought.



" Just hurry up okay...." I trailed as I heard his retreating footsteps.



In about a minute he walked back in..



" Don't worry he is on his way." He said.



" Great" I sighed of relief and relaxed knowing I was finally going to get out.

But then after a few moments

" He?" I asked. I ceased my brows as Reality dawned to me. I was a naked lady in the shower with two men coming to my rescue.



" yes. He should be here in a minute or two." He explained calmly.



" No, no. Am naked you can't see me!" I exclaimed. " No! can't you get a lady up here?"



" But ma'am the lady didn't report to work today, it's the substitute coming and he is male." He said silently but enough for me to hear. He realized the awkward situation too. " If it's any consolation, I will be out. Only the mechanic will be in."



" No this can't be happening. I will not let this happen. And that's not a consolation..... whatever your name is." I said feeling annoyed with the situation.



" Am here, who needs saving?" I heard a voice I knew so Well, the one from this morning. Coffee brown hair, eyes like Damnon's. Liam!! No this is so embarrassing. Could this day get any worse?

" There is a lady stuck in the bathroom." The room service guy explained timidly. I could feel his pity for me.

" Ohh that's new" I heard Liam say picking up a hint of amusement in it. " I told the big guy this door needs fixing but when it comes to money some guys just don't learn." He added critiquing the owner of the hotel. I heard his footsteps come towards the door. I wanted to speak but then he would know I was the one behind the glass bathroom and I will be embarrassed for the rest of my life.

Liam!! This is so embarrassing.



" Miss..." He trailed waiting for me to complete the statement which I completely didn't.



" Miss, are you naked?" He mused. Of course am naked, why would I be in the shower fully clothed?- I answered in my mind.



I could feel the anger fill me up. This guy was enjoying this.



" I will be out " the room service guy excused himself leaving me alone with the man making fun of the situation.

" Ma'am I will have to ask you to move away from the door." He requested sounding a little serious now.



" Hmm" I hummed and moved to one corner of the bathroom. In the next second the glass door shuttered into pieces. " Ahh..." I screamed taking cover. I squatted facing the other side away from the door trying to hide a lot of me.



" Ohhh....am so sorry, here is a rob for you." He didn't sound sincere.



" Please look away." I requested gambling and keeping my eyes shut. I felt so ashamed and my pride stripped off.



" Am leaving it on the hanger here. I will be outside." He said, this time he sounded a little remorseful. I heard his feet retreat but halted at the door way. " Please be careful, there are a lot of broken pieces of glasses on the floor." He warned



" Sure, just leave." I yelled at him.



" Sure, just hurry up okay. I have got plans." He said before finally leaving.
