Chapter 3
The 20th of July arrived. Today Jason awoke earlier than usual. His movements were slow, controlled and deliberate. He made a healthy breakfast of rolled oats, combined with ground flaxseed and boiling water. He added scrambled eggs, some whole wheat toast, a generous serving of fresh fruit (watermelon, pineapple, mango and sweet oranges) in addition to hot cocoa tea.
After devouring this delightful meal Jason washed the containers and put them away. He took out the garbage as well. Next he headed for the shower getting rid of his robe in the process. Jason rinsed slowly in the cool water. Turning off the faucet he lathered generously using a bottle of Right Guard Total Defense 5 body wash with a subtle fragrance of Lavender and musk. Rinsing again Jason paid particular attention to his lower extremities. Then he lathered again this time scrubbing the soles of his feet. Finally Jason finished his shower.
Exiting the shower Jason used a purple towel to dry himself. Then he began shaving, blocking his moustache and beard with deliberate precision. After shaving he applied a generous amount of aftershave balm by L’Oreal. It smelled good. He brushed his teeth and left the bathroom.
Once in the bedroom he began to dress. Jason chose a pair of royal blue boxers trimmed with white. Then he donned a pair of navy blue Dockers shorts. Next was a light blue Ralph Lauren polo shirt. He put on a pair of white ankle length socks and a pair of white and blue Ralph Lauren sneakers. For accessories Jason chose simple elegant items. A gold necklace, a gold cricket band bracelet and a Citizen gold bracelet echo drive watch. In addition to his school ring Jason added a gold and onyx ring. Finally he added a generous amount of Burberry sport fragrance.
The taxi he ordered arrived promptly at eleven O’clock. The driver disembarked and helped him with his luggage. Then they boarded and were off. They had been driving for about ten minutes when Jason remembered something very important. His tablet and passport were still on the table where he had put them. Briskly Jason asked the driver to turn around and go back to the house. Obediently and without any fuss the driver obliged him. Jason took the items and after securing the door he returned to the vehicle in less than a minute.
They continued the journey to the airport. On arrival Jason gave the driver his fare as well as a generous tip. He proceeded to the check-in counter. A beautiful, well attired attendant gave him a warm greeting whilst flashing a smile. He smiled back whilst handing her his passport.
“Hi I’m Rochelle and I will assist you.”
“Where are you travelling today Mr. Aurelien?” She asked to confirm his journey.
“Trinidad,” Jason replied. “Only one bag sir?”
“That’s it,” Jason said.
“Okay Sir. Here’s your boarding pass and baggage claim tag. Also here’s your passport and E.D. Cards. Your boarding time is 12:15 P.M. Please clear with security and be in the departure hall by 11:50 A.M. Have a safe trip sir.”
“Thank you,” said Jason smiling.
Jason observed that she also had inserted a business card in his passport. He had a quizzical look on his face.
“Oh she said. That’s just in case you have any problems. Just give me a call and I will take care of them.” He smiled yet again.
The first leg of his journey was to Trinidad where he would meet with Raquel. Jason proceeded to the security clearance and into the departure lounge. He slipped into one of the shops and bought an extra large Toblerone chocolate. This was for Raquel. He also bought three long stemmed red roses. Oooh! They smelled good. Soon after his flight was being announced over the public address system.
Jason headed straight for gate number twelve. Another beautiful young lady checked his passport and boarding pass at the gate. She smiled and showed him the way to the waiting aircraft. He walked with lengthy strides to the aircraft. At the door of the aircraft he was greeted by a friendly stewardess. She gave a welcoming smile and proceeded to escort him to seat seven A. It was a window seat. After having a brief conversation she disappeared momentarily.
Moments later she would return with a straw and a can filled with a malted beverage. Jason said thanks. She replied, “You’re welcome.”
Raquel called to say that she had arrived at the Piarco International airport in Trinidad. Jason’s flight was airborne minutes later. In thirty minutes they were making their final descent into the Piarco International Airport in Trinidad.
Once the all clear was given to disembark the aircraft Jason made his way into the arrival hall. The process of Immigration and customs was smooth and he completed them both easily. Having collected his luggage he exited the arrival hall.
Before Jason could say Jack, Raquel was in his arms. He hugged and kissed her. The tender encircling nature of the embrace made him anxious. Slanting his head to get a complete seal with her lips his tongue deftly explored inside of her mouth. He tasted a guava flavor as well as her natural sweetness. Then withdrawing he handed her the roses. Smiling she again gave him a hug along with another passionate kiss. He moaned ravenously for her but was reluctant to consume her there and then.
