EPISODE 7

The plane landed at Heathrow Airport around five in the evening.

It took some time for Henrik to get out of the Airport. A cab was waiting for him when he got out. He gratefully sat in and felt bored immediately.

 

He wasn’t too enthused about the trip now. Henrik felt he was getting too old for that kind of thing. He wished Kiara-joy had accompanied him but the short notice had made it impossible.

He checked into the plush hotel that the organizers had reserved for him and went to stretch his legs for a while.

 

And then he sent a message to Kiara-joy, his folks and Shanel to notify them he had arrived safely. He went through the Firm’s presentation for the scheduled Conference, and made a few additions to enrich it. He tried to read a book he started on the plane but couldn’t concentrate. For some reason, he was sorely homesick. He went online to read updates of news around the world and the weather for the time that he would be there.

 

Henrik still felt downhearted. He couldn’t shake off the gloomy feeling that assailed him the moment he came out of the airport. He changed into some fresh clothes and went down to the bar to get himself a drink to lift his spirits and give him a little warmth since it was quite cold. Despondently, he took a seat at the counter and pulled at the drink. The burning sensation in his throat lifted his spirits a bit.

He felt a tap on his back and turned.

 

The woman who had tapped him was elegant, and he actually knew her from the past. Her name was Melisa.

“I was sure I saw you. Wow, you look great!” Melisa said.

Henrik got to his feet and hugged her tightly, grateful for a familiar face. “Look at you, you are looking gorgeous. It’s good to see you!”

“Can I join you?” Melisa asked with a broad smile.

 

“Sure, why not?” Henrik said and led her to a table. He signalled for a waiter who came almost immediately.

They gave their order and dismissed the waiter.

Melisa starred deeply into his eyes, obviously grateful to share a table with him. It had been a long time since they ran into each other.

“What brings you to this part of the world?” Melisa asked, still gazing into his eyes.

 

“Well, am here for a conference. What about you?” Henrik enquired.

“I’m here for a two-months course. I must say I am very proud of your career achievements. You have been simply amazing. I’ve personally followed every single case you’ve handled. You are a fine Lawyer, I must say. There aren’t many like you. Wish I were there every time to share in your achievements. You are blessed. I’m really happy for you.” Melisa explained.

 

“Look who is talking in parables. You have not done badly yourself. I’m sure your achievements are immeasurable compared to mine. Just that it’s not public. Working in the Legal Department of one of the biggest Banks is not for the faint-hearted like me, you know. I respect you a lot.” Henrik countered politely.

 

The waiter served their order and they took their drinks with some hot chicken kebabs in silence. Henrik stared at her as she bit into the kebab and marvelled at how pretty and composed she looked. She was a little extravagant but that was her trademark and she did it so well you would admire her for it. He also  marvelled at how well she had kept in shape and wondered if she had kids. He noticed she was not wearing any bands and wondered if she ever got married.

 

Henrik knew she had had a crush on him way back at Law School but he had met Kiara-joy and didn’t really pay much attention to her. They had gone out a couple of times as good friends and when she had told him she was in love with him and kissed him passionately on one of those occasions, he had gradually distanced himself from her.

“So, how is Kiara-joy doing?” Melisa asked cutting into his thoughts.

 

“She’s doing well. She went into her own business after she had Chelsca and I must say she earns more money than I do from the corporate world. You should see the things she does with beads. She’s really talented. And you, who is the lucky man in your life?” Henrik responded.

 

“Mine is a little complicated. Been separated from my husband for two years now. We don’t have any kids and it seems he’s fallen in love with another woman. I guess he is trying to have a child with her. I get to see him once in a while but I don’t think there’s any hope for our marriage.” Melisa answered.

 

“That’s sad to hear. I wonder what kind of man would leave a beautiful and cultured person like you for another. He would be back. Just give him time. Sometimes we men behave like boys. I hope you don’t let that rob you of happiness in life. I’m sure there is someone out there who would kill to have you by his side. Just be a little patient.” Henrik reassured her.

 

“I don’t think he is totally to be blamed for our problems. I guess I didn’t give my marriage the needed attention. In truth, I pushed all my energies into my career and now I know I have lost him for good. I am very sure that was why he fell into the arms of the first person who gave him the needed care and attention. “

“Well, don’t give up yet, sweetie. That’s all I will say. I have a conference in the morning so I would like to go and catch up on some sleep. I am honoured for the company. Truth is, I was really feeling under the weather before you showed up,” Henrik said and got to his feet.

 

He walked to the counter and paid the bill. He realized he was a bit light-headed. Henrik knew he had taken more than his usual liquor consumption. Melisa followed him.

Being the gentleman that he is, Henrik offered to take Melisa up to her room since she looked quite drunk and felt sorry for her. They walked in silence until they reached her door.

“Can you please stay till I fall asleep? I really don’t want to be alone tonight.” Melisa implored.

 

“I don’t think it’s a good idea,” Henrik replied.

“Pleeeeease! Do that for me for old times’ sake. We were best of friends, don’t let me down now. I feel really lonely today.’’ Melisa implored.

Henrik didn’t know what to say. He was feeling like a bad person by the way Melisa was begging.

 

She unlocked the door and they stepped into a dimly lit hotel room with Melisa leading the way. As soon as they were both inside, Melisa kicked the door shut, threw her arms around him and kissed him with all the hunger she felt. Henrik responded without holding anything back. She caressed his earlobes and nipples as they kissed with a hunger that shocked him.
