Rio's POV
"I turn my chill music up and I'm puffing my chest I'm getting ready to face ya" Kami yelled at the top of her lungs in my rental Corolla.
The high note came, "I still get jealous" and she sung it in an annoying cracked filled out of tune voice.
Is she tone deaf? Yeah she totally is.
I nodded mindlessly at my inner comment.
The traffic wasn't as heavy in Seattle as it was in New York. We needed to get to Flight 210 by 6 am which in New York would be highly impossible at the time we're leaving home.
My fingers drummed to the music on steering wheel as Kami scared off all living thing with her singing.
She turned down the radio so she could speak.
"So Rio I heard theirs a new opening at 1st Class, Clara quit" I glanced her way then back to the road as she grinned slightly at the information she remembered.
"Why would someone quit 1st Class? Yeah the people may be total snobs but the pay is...." I shook my head in disbelieve not even bothering to finish the sentence.
"Well I heard she somehow met an elderly man and let's just say she got herself a sugar daddy" she mumbled picking up her phone from the sudden ring from her notifications.
"We were together the entire day so how did you even get the news?" I made a roundabout shifting gears down the hills.
"Well you see..." She started grabbing my bag of Crisps from the back,"Jeanine text me that Clara told Kelsey who spoke to Roma who called Daniela who told her all about what happened"
The gossip
Unfortunately my staff were just like high school students whose life only revolved around the rumors told.
"Hmm okay I guess she found herself a free ticket to wealth" I shrugged off the whole confusing statement she recently uttered.
Surrounded by a bunch of immature 25+ year old's was quite irritating especially when your closes friend is the most immature of them all.
I parked the rental car into the staff only parking spot.
"So today is our last day of work and we're heading back to Washington!" She squealed clapping her hands like a five year old.
Her phone vibrated one again and she started to tap furiously against the device.
I got out of the car and she followed mindlessly grabbing our carry on bags.
"Let me guess you're talking t-"
"Nicholas!" She added interrupting me completely, answering the phone.
She's been with Nicholas Darfur for about six years now and there relationship have been.....an on and off mess.
They were like an old married couple who fought over stupid things.
Reasons they fight
1. Jealousy
2. Pride
3. Distrust
4. Assumptions
I swear it's like a rotation of these four words. It's sometimes funny and cute yet just plain stupid and annoying.
Days she cried on my shoulder. Days she rant for four hours straight. Days she smashed everything in her house. But they still end up back together.
Now you understand why they haven't gotten married after being together for 6 yrs.
I passed the keys to the Valet entering the STAFF ONLY door which was separated from the actual airport.
Kami followed talking loudly into the phone, she was distracted by Nick.
Ugh! I hate Nicholas, he just seem suspicious. After being friends with Kami for a year and a half I came to have a strong hate for that dang baboon head.
Apparently he doesn't like me either which makes Kami the one stuck in the middle. As usual she'd take his side sometimes even agreeing that I'm jealous.
It was absolutely ludicrous!
They live together and every other night he'd leave her alone in the house to go off to do business.
One time a girl claimed to be pregnant with his child. Kami refused to believe her claiming 'Nicolas is a faithful man'. She is blind sighted by love sadly.
We went to do some verification procedures then went to the plane. Our bunk was so uncomfortable but working a year and a half here causes one to get used to it.
I have a....um...boyfriend. Surprise!
Yeah his name is Luca and he's a car dealer for General Co Ltd.
We've been together for about 9 months or so and he's one of the sweetest I've been with. No I'm not in love with him even if he confessed his months ago.
I don't want to break up with him but I don't feel the connection.
So you know what I'm doing right now? Avoiding him.
I know stupid idea cause I'm hurting him more. But I don't know what wrong with me.
Obviously I like him but he has this insane idea where we are in love with each other.
The other day he asked me if I wanted to settle down and create a family with him someday.
I was like......um.....I haven't thought about it.
I feel rushed into something I don't want. And as I was thinking about him, my phone is ringing.
"Hello" I answered without checking the name on my screen of my phone.
"Rio baby wassup" Luca chuckled quietly into the phone.
"I'm kind of busy...." I trailed of not knowing what to say.
He sighed.
"Baby we need to talk when you get back" he mumbled, I can imagine him ruffling his hair, "Is it me or are you avoiding me?"
"Lu-"
"Did I do something, you never call me Lulu anymore" his sounded hoarse and strained like he was fighting the pain.
The guilt.
"When you come back I'll make it up to you, I promise" he sounded distant, in his own thought.
"Luca I-"
"Rio I love you and I'll do anything to keep you, know that" he said and hung up.
I looked at my phone trying to figure out what the heck just happened.
As per usual Kami is no where to be found so I guess she left to middle class.
Glancing at the time and I realise that my shift is about to start. So I put on my uniform and head for middle class.
Before I got there my name rang on the intercom.
Rio Rodriguez, Rio Rodriguez please come to the Head Administration
Not recalling what I did wrong, I raced to Head of Administration.
On the way there I racked my brain continuously. What did you do Rio?
Taking a deep breath I knocked three times on the door waiting for the come in.
It did and I walked gracefully into the quarters.
"Mr. Fernando" I acknowledged his presence.
"Take a Sit" he said with a blank expression plastered on his face.
My palms were sweaty and I bit my lip in anxiousness.
He was a bald headed chubby Portuguese in a expensive suit. His office wasn't that big due to being on a plane.
"Let me cut the change because I have no time to waste" the man look simply bored, "You have been selected by the officials to 1st Class"
I gaped at him fiddling with my fingers nervously.
"Tha-"
"You may leave" he commanded waving me off, "Oh, you can start today but you officially start after your vacation"
I nodded stoically then stood and left the office.
I did a little shimmy dance outside the door then went to 1st Class.
Let's see what Clara's complaining about.
