next week seems so far away still .........

[ilikeoldchangke]

The lot of us checked in together as a group before Charlie went on with another round of briefing.

We will be doing a transit at Frankfurt before heading over to Hungary.



As the transit time is short, only 1.5 hours, we would need to clear the customs, hurry to the boarding gate and catch the connecting flight.




Someone mentioned that 1.5 hours is pretty long but Charlie replied that over there, please do not expect the efficiency you see in Singapore. It may take a while to clear the customs and security checks.




Charlie : So please look after one and other in your group yah. We don’t want anyone to miss the connecting flight.


Charlie was about to say something else when his phone rang.


He pressed 1 side of his ear close just to hear the other party speak.




I turned away to look at the girls




I watched the girls adjust each other’s clothes and I could really feel this heightened sense of relief in my mind. It was as if a heavy stone had been lifted off my chest.


They seemed so at ease with each other, casually chatting and commenting about everyday stuff as they fumbled and check their travel documents.



Ella : Let’s go grab breakfast shall we ?





Celeste nodded and just gestured for me to follow up with a cool shake of her head before linking arms with Ella.





I lugged my carry-on bag and fell in step behind the girls



There was so much I wanted to ask and talk to them about, both individually and together.




I turned to look at Charlie and saw that he was looking back at the check in belt we just left. His head was scanning about for a while before he reminded everyone to be punctual and board the plane before disappearing away into a crowd.







I gave it a shrug and caught up to the girls.






The questions immediately flooded back into my mind.




What happened from the period since we ceased contact?





Are they ok ?




Did they have a good talk about what happened ?




Did they have a falling out right after ?





I wanted to ask Ella why did she quit her job and has she found a new one ?








And for Celeste , I really do have feelings for her and I wanted to know how was she after this unfortunate episode.




Are we truly ok ?




It’s inevitable that she might feel hurt after I cheated on her, not to mention it’s her best friend.



I was really worried about me spoiling their relationship.







So many questions peppered my mind as we decided to check in and eat at the duty free area.



After clearing the customs, Ella got a small trolley to fit all our carry-on bags and left the heavy lifting to me.


We settled down at a café and ordered Kaya toast and more coffee.






The girls were excited about the trip and were talking nonstop about the places we would be visiting.


I felt a little ignored but I did not mind, at least I did not have to go on the trip alone.






I don’t know why but when I watch Ella sip her coffee and Celeste bite into her bread, I felt an erection stirring.



There was this familiar sense of arousal as I watch the 2 girls go about their chat.


The first thing that came to my mind was the sleeping arrangements.





I know for sure during the booking, Celeste and I would be sharing a room, Ella will be with Don for obvious reasons. Now that both of them are coming on this trip, does it mean we will be sharing the same room ?



Will I take turns with the girls ?




Perhaps they would ditch me and share a room themselves.

I was happily lost in my thoughts when a flash from a nearby camera snapped me out of my daydream.





Ella shifted her leg, uncrossing her leg and I felt it accidentally brush against mine.


I paused and looked at her but she ignored me.



I was wearing jeans, yet that quick brush of Ella’s leg against mine brought back so many memories. The smoothness of her hairless calves, the smell of her hair, I could almost feel an erection building up.





Then, without warning, I felt a kick on my shin as I saw Celeste eyeing me cautiously, her eyes narrowing at me while i stared at Ella.


I did not even realised I was staring at Ella.





James : It was nothing… i…. i… I was… just… just…. Lost in thought….






Celeste : No need to say anything James….. Just remember…. You are on thin ice…





Ella smiled without looking at me while Celeste made a face at me.




That insignificant incident made me horny for some weird unexplained reason.



Does that mean the girls are jealous of each other in some weird unexplained way?


The moment Celeste looked away, seemingly occupied with the array of duty free shops , Ella made eye contact with me.



There was something naughty about her eyes, as if there was this twinkle I could not explain.



It was a surreal moment and we just spent the next few seconds staring at each other while we sipped our coffee.




What happened to us the last couple of months flooded itself back into my mind, like the sudden opening of a dam. Emotions and feelings that I thought were dam up just filled up this void in me.



I wish I could describe that moment.



It really felt like a bit of disappointment, stemming from the realisation that Celeste and I will be making up with each other. Then again, there was this priceless look of relief on Ella’s face.



Perhaps she felt the same way I did.



Finally having a heavy rock removed from her chest.



What we did was wrong, and there is simply no reason for it to continue.



As I drained my coffee, I could not help but suddenly notice a change in Ella’s expression.



It was a sudden change.



A total deviation from the original emotions that she was feeling seconds ago.




Her eyes widened and she slowly sat upright.




She was not looking at me but I could see her eyes burning up with anger and resentment.



I was about to turn and see what she was looking at when Celeste happened to turn towards me.



The moment her body angled and she too widened her eyes.




Her lips were slightly parted and it was a look of pure confusion.




I immediately turned and I felt this solid lump in my throat drop into my chest, restricting my ability to breathe properly.




Barely 5 meters away, stood someone we never expected to see.



Don .




Charlie was talking to him about something before giving us a wave and disappeared into the liquor shop.



I could not believe my eyes.

[ilikeoldchangke]

It was Don alright but he looked different.



I gathered he had lost at least 5 kg. His face had sharpened visibly and the clothes he was wearing hung a little loosely on his shoulders. He looked like he did not shave for a couple of days and he just seemed so tired.





I immediately walked over.



James : What the fuck Don ? …. What are you doing here ?





He smells like he had been on a plane for a while, his clothes looked crumpled up close.





Before Don could answer me, Ella had stormed over.



She started her conversation with a push, shoving Don 2 steps from where he stood.



The sudden commotion drew the attention of 2 police officers who was having their lunch break barely a few steps away. I could feel their eyes on us as their hands slowly set down their utensils and just watched us quietly.




Ella tried to slap Don but Don stepped back and avoided Ella’s palms easily.



I held onto Ella and asked her to calm down.



Celeste was already on her way over and I half shoved and begged Celeste to take Ella away before things get ugly.





Ella finally spoke, the anger evident in her voice.





Ella : What gives you the right to be here !!





And when Don replied, I was taken aback with his nonchalant attitude.



Don : I paid for this trip. I have every right to be here.




Ella was about to snap and I immediately gave Don a shove, pointing my finger at his face.





James : Stop it !.... not here..



I immediately grabbed by bags and grabbed Don away from the girls.




We walked without a word for about 50m before Don shrugged me off.



Don : Let go la…. I’m ok…



James : What the fuck was that man ?



James : You cheated on her, left with a fucking PRC bitch and now you….. you just suddenly show up ? What the fuck ???




Don went over to a bench and sat down.



Don : I fucked up man James…. I really messed everything up.



James : You fucked up the moment you decided to side with Mimi many months back.





He buried his face in his hands and I just stared at him.




After what seemed like 5 minutes, Don suddenly grabbed onto me.



Don : Help me James….


I stared at him wide eyed.



James : help ??? what help ? … haven I done enough ? …..



I exhaled and looked away.





And the next sentence Don said sent a chill down my spine.



Don : Help me get Ella back…..




My heart almost stopped beating as I turned to look at my dear friend.



James : Are you out of your mind…..



Don : Please James…..please…. I was wrong…. I just need another chance….




It was my turn to bury my face in my hands.



I was at a lost for words.



I really did not know what to say.





We sat silently at the bench watching people walk by for close to half an hour before I realise it was time to board.



I nudged Don to snap him out of his day dream.




James : Let’s go…




Don : Will you help me….





James : I don’t know how to help you…. Leave me out of this….




I walked in front of Don as I tried to organise my messed up thoughts. All expectations of a nice Europe holiday had left my mind.



Don called out to me and what he said made me paused where I stood.




Don : I will get Ella back….. by hook or by crook…. I will do it even if you refuse to help me.



I took a deep breath and turned to face Don.



Our eyes met and I could not tell if the Don I knew was still in this human shell that was standing in front of me.



Don : I know Ella likes you…. Even more so now that I am out of the picture…




I kept quiet maintaining my silence.



Don : Only you can help me…..




Then from the corner of my eyes I saw the girls.



They were standing a distance away, looking at us.




I turned to look at them, their arms were folded.


Ella was glaring at Don.


Celeste was staring at me.





This is going to be an interesting Europe trip……………..
