The Robin Hood Society

Chapter 11 - The Vacation

J enters her room. Her room is painted with sage green, while her queen size bed and other furniture are white except for her pillow that has a touch of sage green. It also has an almost wall-sized window with flowy curtains overlooking the ocean.

She walked over the open window and inhales the fresh air of the ocean. She then closed the window and looked around her room. It has 3 other doors. One is the walk-in closet, the other one is the bathroom while the last one leads to her personal library.

She started to undress and walk towards the bathroom. The bathroom was like a garden with tiles, pebbles, and plants. She plunged into the tub at the center of the bathroom then stare at the sky. Yes, the open sky because the center of the bathroom has a glass ceiling. It is one of the changes that the architect did during the renovations.

After her bath, she walks in her closet. her closet has a variety of clothes but mostly casual. She chose to wear a simple pajama when she heard a knock on the door.

"Come in." She said. It was Mrs. Potters with a tray with a teapot, a jar of honey and a cup on it. She immediately received it and said her thanks. Mrs. Potters asked her if she needed anything else but she shakes her head and said she can go back to her room.

After Mrs. Potters left, she headed to her personal library then opened a glass door connected to the balcony. She seats at one of the accent chairs and stares at the dark ocean while drinking her tea.

It's now 2 am. She stretched out her leg in the ottoman in front of her. It's the start of her 15-day leave.

She was not supposed to arrive at The Lodgepole Estate until tomorrow night. But due to the changes in Dr. Gonzalez's schedule their supposed 3rd CABG operation tomorrow was moved earlier that night. They did the operation just an hour after the 2nd CABG. So, she had a double shift and was out at 11 pm.

The next day she was awoken by the sunlight entering her room. She looked at her clock and was already 2 pm. Her room is facing west so by that time the sun is now facing her room.

Suddenly she remembered something. She got up, grab her phone and makes a call.

"Hi, this is me... Yeah... I'm sorry I couldn't make it today... No, I'm fine... it's just that I'm now at Lantana Province... hmm... I'll make it up to the kids when I get back... Okay then. Thank you." then she hanged up.

She scanned around her. Her room is much better during the day. Ahh...she never had a good long sleep for the past few weeks until now. She smiled at herself.

She then takes a bath and changes into a white casual dress and flat shoes.

She's going to make her vacation worth it.

....

At the Evergreen Villa. Jacob woke up with a throbbing headache. He looked around. He was now in his bedroom. The last thing he remembers was last night he was with James and giving him some instructions. He had no idea how he got home last night.

He walked out of the bedroom to the kitchen. "Good afternoon." he was startled when he heard someone spoke. It was James sitting in the dining table working on his laptop.
