5 05.Handsome guardian angel?

''Mom, look, the whale.'' Loud exclamations could be heard from the girl that hopped excitedly by the reeling.

''I can see them as well. Cold you stop jumping around, it's scary.'' Emma just peeked from the border of the big ship towards the deep sea and saw the whole family of whales swimming by.

She smiled stiffly and held her big hat tightly as gusts of wind tried to take it from her head. Even tho she had panic attacks, but for her child's sake, she was willing to make this little trip. After all, soon everything will change and they won't be able to go out for a very long time.

Oh dear safety, how I miss thou. She chanted this but then breathed deeply as she steps by step slid (yes...like a crab...sidways) towards the railing.

Seeing the dark water her tiny hairs on the back of her neck stood up and she started shaking while holding at the reeling in fear.

''Are you ok?'' A deep voice sounded near her ear and she almost jumped over it as it scared her deeply.

Her eyes cautiously looked at the good looking man in casual wear standing not far from her and smiling at her. ''Who are you and what you want?''

She stood in front of her daughter with two tiny hands ready to attack and tried to look fearless while the whole body shook like a leave on the wind.

He chuckled and with swift catch got her hat that almost became one of the sea treasures. ''Lady, your hat.''

She pouted, stuffed the hat on her head and just mumbled ''Thank you'' trough her teeth.

So cute. Even with those huge glasses that made her eyes look like greta fish, she looked so cute. He almost went there to pinch her cheeks but then stopped himself and looked at her hands.

No ring but child there.No problem, it's not like he can't afford it.

''My name is Mario Santini. I...'' He wanted to introduce himself properly but was stopped by a small hand that waved in front of his face.

Emma shook her hands and head. ''Stop Mario whoever. I do not wish to know. I just want to have a nice vacation with my child. Please move on and thank you one more time for saving my hat.''

He saw fear and repulse in her eyes. What did happen to such a cute woman to have such fear from him? When he went to his room he looked at the reflection on the mirror and couldn't find anything that could be called repulsive or ugly.

The phone rang on the table and he answered. ''Yes?''

''Boss, we are done. How should we deal with the rest of the stuff?'' Voice sounded from the other side.

''Common procedure. Don't overdo it.'' He then remembered the small woman and ordered his secretary to find data about her.

While sitting in his room and read the file his face became darker and darker. ''Such a fine woman being fooled by this man for so long. Now they are divorcing and he is getting half of her liquid money. What a joke. What? It was her suggestion?. What is the story about that? How interesting. I will see what you plan to do, my cute Emma Thomson. I will be your guardian angel from now on. I promise.'' He closed the file and a brilliant smile appeared on his face.

A week passed quickly. Emma was trying to enjoy the outside world but on end, she would just sit with her pc and check teh data she needed for the next part of her plan. One day she found it... Finally!!!

She jumped up and started laughing and dancing with her daughter out of happiness. ''I found it. It's perfect.''

Aisa was happy. She knew that her mother's wish was to find a safe place and just hid inside until everything passes. That is the reason she wanted to enjoy this as much she could. But it seems mothers nature was inheritable.

After while she wanted to go actually but her mother thought she wanted to stay longer so she just acted as she enjoyed it. Now hearing that they could finally leave she felt amazingly happy.

''I took 3D videos of places we went to see. So when we go back home I will make a virtual room where we can enjoy this place one more time.'' Emma had already ideas on how she could even produce sounds and smell and all other factors.

Aisa was happy. When Emma showed her place she realized just then how rich her mother really is. This place is humongous.

It was some kind of military testing place and was abandoned as they never got enough money to start tests. It had almost ten levels that were connected with escalators and stairs as well.

Every level was almost as big as some small town so Emma started making decisions.

''I will buy this and turn it into a testing field for natural growth without direct sunlight. Maybe some people will have good ideas and finish everything for us. Or should I hidingly just finish myself?''

''Motehr, the more people knew, it is more burdensome. Maybe we can just rent some kind of agency and different kinds of people will do different kinds of jobs. We need to hurry, the time flows quickly..,''

Emma nodded. ''I know.''
