9- Things fall apart

Victoria left the wedding venue and cried out all her heart on her way out.

She thought within herself- "my mother and my husband doing it for more than ten years and neither my father nor I have an idea about it"

Amanda caught up with her and she cried loudly on her shoulders and told her..

..."please do me a favor and take me far away from this island where he won't ever see me again".

Amanda took her to a safe place, went to their rooms and packed their luggages and had the chauffeur drive her to where Victoria was waiting.

"I am eternally grateful to you Amanda" Victoria Cole continued to sob in tears.." what would I have done without you"

She hugged her again, and said.."let's get the hell out of this nightmarish island, and I hope to wake up from this dream that's so scary"

Victoria got into the car, changed her wedding dress to something more casual, put on a baseball cap and dark sun glasses.

She tried to sleep but couldn't, Amanda offered her water but she refused.

The bitterness in her heart grew continuously and she thought of stabbing both Oscar and her mother in the left pericardium.

When they arrived at Maui international airport, she took out her special diamond coated credit card to pay for their next destination.

But Amanda was very close by and held her hands and asked her to stop and take a deep breath.

"You aren't in the right frame of mind to make decisions now" Amanda pleaded with Victoria to step aside.

She then told her.."Until you are sound enough and have healed completely, I will make all decisions and equally consult with you for your approval"

"Fair enough... absolutely fair enough" Victoria tried to smile back but couldn't.

Amanda looked at her with so much pity. Even though she had orchestrated the whole fiasco, she still felt sorry for her.

But she still have a goal in mind and won't let emotions cloud her judgement until she accomplish all.

"Paris...Paris..Nous allons à Paris" Amanda told Victoria.

Though, she didn't understand perfectly well what she said in french, but the word Paris said it all.

"Yes..yes..Qui" Victoria for the first time smiled a bit.."Paris here we come"

Amanda went to the ticketing lady and said.."two first class tickets for Paris"

"A moment please" replied the young lady.

"Can I have your passports" she stretched for her hands and grabbed it through the small outlet from her desk.

"Would you like any hotel reservations" she looked at both of them.

"Yes of course" Amanda replied.."the very best hotel in Paris overlooking the Eiffel Tower"

"One moment please" said the ticket officer...as she typed very fast her system keyboards and printed everything out.

Victoria was constantly looking back to see if Oscar or her any of her parents will try to catch up with them.

She told Amanda to hurry up so that they can board in the plane.

The lady handed them their flight tickets and hotel reservations and smiled while she said.. "Bon Voyage"

Victoria hurriedly boarded the plane while Amanda watched from back and smiled in her heart that her plan B and C are perfectly working.

****

Victoria didn't eat anything during the journey and almost drank herself to stupor.

Amanda was always there to comfort her and she played her part to perfection.

Finally she slept off, while Amanda took her phone and started glancing through it for more information that will help in this grand scheme that only she understands.

The flight was very long, but Victoria always have Amanda's shoulders to lean on and cry also.

They arrived at the hotel and checked into different rooms just close to each other.

Victoria pleaded with Amanda to stay with her as she is too vulnerable to stay alone.

"Not a word about what happened at Maui island"- Victoria told Amanda.."I beg you in the name of the gods and goddesses of the Hawaiian islands"

"okay, Vicky" (a new pet name Amanda decided to call her).."it never happened, we never were there"

They ordered room service, but only for Victoria to continue drinking away her sorrows until she fell asleep.

Amanda covered her with the bed sheets and immediately contacted her boyfriend Michael Smith and best friend Sarah Green, who are still at Hawaii to get the latest updates the aftermaths of their sudden disappearance.

****

Victoria woke up and looked a bit sober, while Amanda pretended to be asleep.

She entered the shower and stayed a long time at the bathtub reflecting and planning her next move on how to hurt both Oscar and her mum.

Amanda waited for twenty minutes and when she didn't come out went to see if she hadn't drowned herself.

As she came close, she heard music playing, sobbings with uncontrolled cries.

"Are you okay, Vicky" Amanda asked her.

"Am fine, I will be out soon" replied Victoria as if nothing happened.

She came out and got dressed and both of them went to the rooftop bar and restaurant of the hotel.

It was some minutes past nine.

The top view was just something beyond description.

Paris lit up, vibrant with people from all works of life and countries enjoying the night lifestyle.

One can't miss the lights coming from the magnificent Eiffel Tower which makes Paris so iconic.

They sat down, joined other guests there and for the first time in more than 24 hours, Victoria did eat some foods.

After conversations with folks from different parts of the world, Victoria was starting to come alive and once more thanked Amanda for saving her miserable life.

They enjoyed the night up there, ate a lot and the french wine was just so irresistible.

Amanda and Victoria made some friends there. Some dudes with French accent tried to wooed both of them because of their beauties but Amanda was so quick and fast to change the subject and politely reject them.

As Victoria came more alive up there, Amanda quietly and stylishly placed her hands in her thighs and Victoria felt some warm tingling sensations all over her body.

She smiled to Amanda as they continued their conversation. Amanda sensed it was the best time to strike and went a little further.

She moved her fingers up her thighs and reached out for her panties only to find out it was totally wet.

This is certainly a new feeling for Victoria who had never been with another man apart from Oscar , let alone a woman.

She tried to excuse herself to get to the room to probably change her panties.

Amanda waited and then went behind her without her knowledge.

As soon as she was opening the door, Amanda held her hands from behind, turned towards her and kisses her so passionately as they entered the rooms together and locked the door.

Victoria didn't show any signs of resistance as she responded back in kind.

Amanda took the lead, undressed her, whispered to her ears that she's like the Maui goddess and literally drove Victoria wild and mad.

They made love together almost all night long- and Victoria still remembers it as the best and most passionate sex she has ever had in her entire life.
