Chapter ten: New York

Kelsie and Jessica got into their hotel rooms and unpacked their belongings. While they were doing that, Kelsie left their adjoining door open to leave them connected.

" Kelsie, I just cannot shake off this feeling that someone is orchestrating this all". Jessica complained to her best friend.

" Believe me, baby, it is just your imagination".

" No Kelsie, I think it is real. How exactly do you explain the feeling of deja vu".

" Bestie, you are imagining things. The best part is that no one knows us here. Apart from the company, I am not sure that people can recognize us if they have not heard about us". Kelsie answered trying to assure her best friend.

" We will find out soon, and besides Devon looked familiar". Jessica's mind refused to settle down.

" Alright baby". Kelsie said exasperatedly as she walked into Jessica's room from their adjoining door. She held her hand and led her to the bed. " How about you rest, I will help you finish the rest of the unpacking". Kelsie finished.

" No it is fine, I can handle it. Do not worry about it".

"Are you sure darling". Kelsie asked as Jessica pushed her away a little.

" Yes I am sure Kels. It is a small thing, anyone can manage it".

" While we are at it, do you think you can drop the subject of deja vu and familiarity". Kelsie asked as she went into her room to finish unpacking.

" No not really. I can drop the subject for now but I will continue once my mind becomes troubled again". Jessica said as she took a stool beside her bed and climbed on it to drop her suitcase inside the drawer.

" My God....". Kelsie said on a sigh

As soon as they were done unpacking, a knock sounded on their doors. As each of them went to their doors and opened it. They saw a waiter standing outside their door with a tray of food with variety of dishes.

" Hello, good evening. Welcome to Del Luna hotel. We are so sorry they are two trays of dishes, we do not yet know your preferences and if you guys will love to each together from the same tray". One of the waiter said after they had both bow.

" Thank you so much for this. But please next time, bring the food in a tray. We do not eat food separately on most occasions". Kelsie said as Jessica nudged her to speak.

" Duly noted ma'am. You will have to condone our servings for today. We will make haste to change from tomorrow morning, is that much acceptable". The waiter asked.

" Very much acceptable dear, thank you so much". Kelsie said.

" We really appreciate your service and efforts". Jessica commented as she closed the door.

The waiters went downstairs and were accosted immediately by Richard and Damian.

" Good evening Mr Damian and Mr Richard, how are we doing today". The first waiter greeted.

" We are doing much better, and how are you doing". Richard asked.

" We are both fine, thank you". The waiter responded again.

" What exactly is the update with our women". Richard asked.

" They have settled into their rooms and I believe right now, they are eating their food, sir".

" Was there any problems you encountered while serving them". Damian asked.

" No, not at all, sir. In fact we actually came to an agreement". The waiter responded.

" That is notable to hear. Thank you so much ". Damian said as he and Richard took their leave.

The waiters bowed as they both left.

Meanwhile...

Kelsie and Jessica lunged into the food and handled a tray. Two hours later, they dugged into the second tray and emptied everything on it. As soon as they were done, they dived into their various beds and fell into a dreamless sleep . As they were both tired and exhausted.

Damian called Julie as he and his best friend walked into the hotel garage. " Julie"

"Yes sir, good evening".

" When exactly is Miss chard and Miss Harvard coming in tomorrow for the set interview". Damian asked.

" By exactly ten o' clock sir. Should I do something concerning it". Julie asked.

" Yes Julie. I need your help with something ".

" Of course sir, what exactly could that be. Is it regarding Miss chard and Miss Harvard". Julie asked to be certain.

" Yes indeed Julie, it is regarding them. Here is what I want you to do for me. Are you listening?". Damian asked. He looked up to the sky and just knew that he can not mess this plan up.

" Yes sir. I am actively listening, what should be done".

" I do not want you to disclose either my name or that of Mr Richard in their interview tomorrow". Damian said.

" Okay sir. Does that mean I will be the one handling the interview tomorrow". Julie asked.

" Yes. That is exactly what it means". Damian responded.

" Duly noted sir, I will do just as you asked. Thank you very much sir, good night".

" Good night Julie, thank you". Damian retaliated as he hung up.

" What is wrong, we she be able to do it". Richard asked. He had been walking around since to distract himself from taking the phone from his best friend and giving the order himself.

" Nope. She will handle it". Damian told his friend. He walked around to his car as Devon opened the door for him. He looked up to his best friend and said " It is actually settled now Richard. You can go home and sleep. Devon, Julie and I will handle the rest of it".

" Alright buddy, I will trust you with her. Thanks man, good night". Richard said.

He left Damian and walked to his car, when he looked back Damian was waiting for him to enter his car.

Once he entered, Damian shut his car door as Devon started his car. He asked Theodore to start the car, and he followed Damian out of the hotel garage.

Inside the car....

On their way home, Damian started thinking about somethings. He then decided to instruct Devon on the steps to take.

" Devon, you will pick up Miss chard and Miss Harvard tomorrow morning by exactly nine o'clock. I do not want them taking the taxi. If they ask too many questions, use your skill to divert those you cannot answer and answer only those that are regarding their comfort and our company. Do not mention our name Devon, we are strictly anonymous to our ladies. Is that understood". Damian asked as he had given Devon his instructions.

" Yes sir. Clearly understood. Should they be any other thing". Devon asked.

" No not really, thank you so much Devon".

" You are very much welcome sir. Your happiness is my happiness". Devon responded as he drove into his boss home.
