Adventure In The Dark
Tragedy 378 - Finding Jessy
...***...
Derek and Pricilla approach the reception desk there and immediately inquire about a hotel guest named Jessy Medellin.
The hotel clerk refused to tell the woman the room was in, and in exchange, Derek asked Jessy to meet him in the lobby.
"Derek?" call Jessy when she gets there and sees the man who is a friend of her lover coming to look for her.
The focus of Derek and Pricilla turned to the beautiful woman who had the stature of a model with beautiful brown hair.
"Jessy." Derek and Pricilla wake up from the couch they're sitting on.
"Hi! How are you? Long time no see." Pricilla's shaking Derek.
"Hello. I am fine. Yes, it has been a long time since we met. By the way, this is my friend Pricilla. And Pricilla, this is Jessy." Derek introduced Pricilla. The two shook hands and introduced themselves.
"By the way, what are you looking for me for?"
"I'm sure Nils told you a while ago."
"Oh. I completely forgot about that, so you guys came to ask for the address of her cousin who lives in Finland?"
"Yes, that's right!"
"So soon, let me take note of the address." Jessy approached the reception desk and asked the employee standing there to borrow a pen and paper to write down the address Derek requested.
"Here," Jessy said as she thrust a piece of paper with the address in her hand at Derek.
"Thanks. It's been a long time that Pricilla and I have been looking for you." Derek smiles.
"You must be looking for me in Oslo, right?"
"Yes, and we got information from your neighbor that you weren't there. He said you were attending a seminar in London. So I flew straight to London."
"Yes. We've been to the university where you attended the seminar five times, but we didn't find you at all, and then we decided to go back to your place, and thankfully we met Nicole who happened to know where you were at the seminar. He's brought us here."
"Nicoles? Thankfully, he was a friend in my college days. You guys met him? I'll thank him for bringing you here. Sorry for confusing you guys looking for me, I really didn't know that there would be a change of place from the scheduled one. As my apology, how about we have dinner together? I happen to be empty tonight."
"Sorry to disappoint you, but we're in a hurry and we have to fly to Finland."
"This fast? What's wrong?"
"There is an urgent matter that requires us to leave, and we have delayed too long because of our arrival to London."
"Oh, my God, I'm really sorry. It's all my fault."
"It's okay."
"But why don't you guys try calling me? If only, you'd called me, you wouldn't have had to postpone your trip like this."
"We lost our wallet and our cell phone. Besides, I don't remember your number, and I can't call Nils."
"So it seems…"
"Then we're leaving now."
"Alright, be careful on the road. Next time, if we meet again I'll treat you good food as an apology."
"Yes. Take care of yourself, and please thank Nils."
"All right."
"Bye."
