Chapter 3

Mary's POV

"Marry!" My loud friend shouted as soon as I got out of the car

"Lucy!!" I shouted back and hugged him

"I missed you" I said while hugging him tightly

"Hey, I went to your apartment yesterday and you weren't there, the owner of the apartment told me that you had moved. I tried to call you because I didn't have a load yet. But... the owner told me that you were with someone Goodbye driver, who is that?" He had a long line with me and I shrugged

"Jacob" I answered

"Jacob's pogi is fine, it's the same thing" he said which made me laugh

"Are you ready for that? You're going to marry a driver and then you're a seawoman?" I promised him and walked away from our place and Lucy followed me

She is Lucy Makerine Wales, my best friend since high school. She's a naughty girl but when she's in front of a man she becomes a hunter especially if she's pogi.

He used to be shy but since we went to college, he became like that after having an ex boyfriend. They only lasted a month and until now I still don't know the reason

"Bes, we have pogis with us on the ship" he excitedly said to me while pointing to the three men who had his own form of clothing.

"Are they also OJT?" I asked and he nodded while staring at the men and I wasn't surprised when they also looked in our direction

"Well, they're getting closer to us," he said excitedly, making me nervous as well.

"Hello b---" Lucy didn't finish speaking when the three men passed us and I saw them say hello to another man behind us so I laughed at Lucy's reaction

It was obvious to him that he was embarrassed because of what happened today.

"Shit! Shame on them" he said while covering his face while I laughed at him.

He looked very emotional in that situation

"I think I'm going to die of shame Mary Viatrixe Xylline Monteverde" she said which made me laugh even more

"If you're embarrassed, there's no need to mention my full name, Lucy Makerine Wales" I told him with a laugh

"Ms. Monteverde and Ms. Wales, stop talking, the tour is about to start," Chief Bolton said suddenly, making us both quiet.

It's terrible, we were the only ones that he noticed were noisy, I heard a lot of conversations on our left and right and then we were the only ones that noticed.

I looked at my watch and it was 5:02 pm. So we got ready and got serious about looking presentable while we toured

"Good evening students of CamHigh University And Xyford University, we will now start the tour in this magnificent cruise ship" said Chief Bolton into the mic he was holding

So, they are from Xyford, especially the three men that Lucy and I saw. That's why they're not familiar with me because they're from a different school.

Chief Bolton began to walk towards a very large cruise ship that amazed me.

Oh my god, dreams come true. It's my first time to board a cruise ship and it really looks like I'm going to enjoy my 3 month stay on this cruise ship.

As soon as we entered the top of the cruise ship, I immediately saw a large pool and I also saw long slides. There are beach style chairs and many decorations are hanging on each side.

Chief Bolton started talking to explain to us the facility of the entire cruise ship but I didn't pay attention to that because I was just focused on what I was seeing. As soon as I entered the cruise ship, I saw a very large hall and it was very bright. There are boutiques and restaurants around us on the left and right, so I enjoy it even more.

It's my first time to enter here, so I'm going to do my research because I'm sure when my OJT starts, I won't have time to look around at the facilities.

We also went to our dorm inside the ship and it was very crowded, I couldn't bear to stay in such a crowded place. I feel like I'm going to die here. Just kidding, four people in the same room and the room is still too crowded. There are only two double decks and the bed is still hard. I'm sure I'll have a hard time sleeping here.

We also went to the VIP rooms and it was very big there. The space inside the room is great, so I'm sure I'll be jealous of them when they come in here.

We also went to the club room which was full of liquors and then malls with different goods. Alas! If only I were rich, I'd be here all the time.

It took us 10:30 pm to go around the whole ship so I was too tired plus we hadn't eaten yet.

"Don't go home yet, we're going to eat at an Italian Restaurant here" said Chief Bolton who made my blood come alive

Yes! Free! This is exactly what I've been waiting for

We immediately went to an Italian restaurant and sat down there

"Just order, it's my treat" he said so I quickly took the menu and looked at the food

"May I take your order, madame" a waiter said

"One Capperini and one Granita and oh, I also like Marinara" I said excitedly

"Wow, you've completely taken the free one," Lucy said with a laugh

"Of course it's only once in a life time" I replied while giving him the menu

"Can we sit next to you? There are already people sitting in all the seats" Suddenly a man said so Lucy and I looked at each other

I was surprised that they were the three men who were talking earlier, so here is Lucy again, in love

"Okay sure" he said and his taunt came out again

When they sat down, we started interacting

"What's your name ladies?" The blonde haired man asked

"Mary Viatrixe Xylline Monteverde" when I introduce myself

"Lucy Makerine Wales" her smile reached heaven when she introduced herself to the boys

"Noah Mateo Williams"

"Elijah James Canaria"

"Prince Oliver Garcia"

When the three of them introduced themselves to us and I just smiled back at them

"What do you want in a woman?" When Lucy asks, I look at her because that's all there is to ask

"I like bubbly girls and hard to get" said Oliver

"I want someone who is good at cooking and has the fear of God" said Elijah and it was obvious that he was a god because of his answer

"I like my kavibes" Noah answered

Hmm, they're not my type. I hope I don't like any of them. Hayst, my art is really good when it comes to men.

When the food arrived, we immediately ate. Little by little we started talking and laughing at our random conversation.

"You know you enjoy being together" Noah said so I hit him on the shoulder

"Of course the one you're with is beautiful," I said laughing and Lucy and I joined in

It seems that I won't be bored in my 3 months on the ship because we have a close relationship with the boy

"You're so cute, especially when you're laughing," said Oliver, which made my smile widen.

Of course, you're the one who won't be thrilled to be called cute by a guy?

"Oh, Master Dwayne, you're finally here" I heard Chief Bolton say and I suddenly froze in my seat

Why is he here? Oh gosh, I hope he doesn't see me.

I slowly bowed my head and blocked my long hair from my face.

"Mary, are you all right?" Noah asked worriedly

"I-I'm fine, I'm just peeing" I promised

"You forgot where the CR is?" Lucy said laughing

I didn't really forget that, I just wanted to hide that Dwayne, maybe what he had to say to me.

"Come on, I'll come with you" Lucy said so I breathed a sigh of relief

"I'll accompany you too, you might get lost inside the ship" Elijah said

"Don't worry, we won't get lost inside" I promised and it's good that he agreed

While Lucy and I were walking to leave, I just kept my head down because I'm sure if our eyes meet, it will be difficult for me to avoid him and he might even come closer to me, I'm still assuming.

When we left, we went straight to CR. I didn't pee, I just retouched my make up.

"Are you going to pee?" Lucy asked

"I don't pee anymore" I answered while putting the lipstick back in my bag

"Just a minute Bes, someone is calling my phone" he said as he exited the CR.

I was about to go out when suddenly... Dwayne stopped me?

Shit, did I do something wrong?

Mary's POV

"Do you need something? Are you hungry? Do I need to cook for you?" I asked him with a fake smile

"Tsk, you're annoying, I just to warn you that you must not get too close to me in public. If you will report something to me then just call me" he said that makes my eyes rolled

O. He's very concerned, as if I'm going to talk to him in public, maybe what else Lucy will think of me if I have the chance

"Excuse me, you're the one talking to me in public. Just like now, you went to CR, what if someone saw? My friend was just outside and then you suddenly come in here? So if we get caught, it's not my fault "I said to him annoyed while rubbing my eyes

"Do you want to die?" he asked

"Who wants to die? Of course not, are you a fool?" I promised and just as he was about to take something from his black coat, I quickly grabbed his hand

"Of course it's just a joke, if we get caught, it's my fault not yours, because I wasn't careful so someone saw it. Don't worry if someone sees us talking, I'll kill them" I nervously told him and then he just look at me and he left me

I really regret that we met.

"Well, are you alright? You've been here in CR for a while" Lucy suddenly burst out, making me grab my chest. Jusko! I was surprised by him

"Bes, you saw a ghost here in CR, didn't you?" he said and I was about to answer when he spoke again

"Jessa's story to me earlier was correct, she said that there is a ghost here. 15 years ago, there was a holdup here on a cruise ship, then many people died, so there are many dead people who are making her feel here in CR then in the rooms too" he said and I quickly agreed

"You're right Lucy, I saw a ghost with a gun earlier. It looks like he's one of the holdovers in your story. I was about to die, it's good you came" I told him and he suddenly hugged me making me jump

What did he think?

"Don't worry, Mary, I'm just here, a ghost can't take you from me and your name is Mary, God will protect you from scary ghosts" he said to me while patting my back

What does it think? I'm crying? it's up to me as long as the important thing is that I can get through here

FAST FORWARD

I got back to Dwayne's house and I quickly went to my room to pack because my On Job Training starts tomorrow night and the ship leaves from the Philippines to Saudi Arabia so there are many countries we are going to. I don't know if three months will be enough, but they said that if we can't handle three months, we may take six months or more.

It seems that I will experience living at sea if we travel for almost six months but I am sure that I will enjoy it because it has been my dream for a long time but.... will I really enjoy it? heyst, because that was the order of Dwayne, he still wants me to kill someone if Gabriel is ever part of an assassination group. Tsk, it's up to him, I'm not going to kill anyone, I'm just going to force that Gabriel close to him so he can do it, he wants something, not me

The question is.... how can I admit that? I don't know how to do it. It would be nice if that man had a plan, but it doesn't seem like there is any and I'll really have to rely on him to do it.

What went into that brain to make me sympathize with his trouble?

After I finished packing, I immediately went to the garden because my two cats, Riri and Vivi, hadn't left there yet. I don't know about them, that tiger is immediately close to me, and I'm already jealous. I also want to touch the tiger in case it bites me and I will die because it's a waste of my beauty

"Vivi, Riri come here, you're going to eat" when I called my two cats and they both came to me that's why I picked them up as well

They are really cute, it's nice to squeeze their heads!! I love them.

Suddenly, the tiger roared, which is why I backed away while holding my two cats. Little by little, the tiger was getting closer to me, which is why I was able to swallow my own saliva

"Little tiger, I'm not good to eat. Don't try to eat me, I have a lot of pain in my body" I said nervously as I backed away and the tiger was getting closer and closer to me.
