Chapter 5
Bonnie went back in the kitchen.
Richard : he swallowed a piece of bread Did he invite you for lunch ?
Bonnie : Yes she put the tray down
Richard : Well, well, well, you're prettier than me.
Heat spread on her cheeks and she didn't know where to put herself.
Richard : Don't be shy, darling, it's not a bad thing that a man fancies you.
Bonnie : I don't know, maybe he does that with every woman.
Richard : Time will tell. But he ain't bad looking, eh ?
She smiled and he had a knowing look. It was a good moment.
Richard : he wiped his hands Will you help me with the dishes ?
Bonnie : Of course.
They started to work.
Richard : Did he ask you to come back tomorrow ?
Bonnie : Yes, I have to come every noon actually.
Richard : I see.
Meanwhile
Marcos : We will be in Port Royal in about two days.
Kai : Good.
Marcos : Speaking of good, how was your lunch ?
Kai : Richard's food is always tasty.
Marcos : That's not what I meant.
Kai raised an eyebrow.
Marcos : I'm talking about Bonnie.
Kai : What about her ?
Marcos : I know you probably invited her for lunch.
Kai : I just wanted to hear her story he looked at a map
Marcos : For how long have we been working together ?
Kai : he stopped his work to think about it Five years.
Marcos : I think it's safe to say that I know you and I know when you fancy a girl or not.
Kai : Fine, maybe I'm interested.
Marcos : Only maybe ? I mean the girl is gorgeous. I know I'm interested.
Kai : he glared Marcos, you can have all the women in the world but this one is mine. Understood ?
Marcos : Got it. I'm just wondering how you're going to seduce her.
Kai : I'm going to give her time. She was almost abused. Of course I could just tell her she owes me something but I'm not a jerk.
Marcos : Yes, figures.
Kai : Take a few men. We need to check we have all the goods required before we reach Port Royal.
Port Royal
Bonnie looked at the crew working. They were carrying heavy packages. She
wasn't invited to go on shore but she wanted to. She had an idea. She left the
railing and walked in the hallways. She knocked on the door and waited for
him to answer. It happened after a couple of minutes. She went in and saw him
in fancy clothes.
Kai : What do you think ?
Bonnie : I think you look good.
Kai : he smiled Thanks. It's not every day that you go meet the governor.
Bonnie : Can I join ?
Kai : I'm not sure this is a good idea.
Bonnie : But it would be harmless if I disguise myself.
Kai : What do you mean ?
Bonnie : I could go as a man. I would be your young slave assistant. Something along these lines.
Kai : I would be curious to see that.
Bonnie : Give me half an hour then she left
Kai : But I didn't even say yes he shook his head
That woman was definetly a challenge but he didn't mind. She was lovely and
fresh. He was glad he talked to Marcos because he wasn't one to share.
