Chapter 27: 27


    We were forced to go back to our hotel because the management called the captain to inform us about


    some situation. The captain could only tell us that there was an emergency. Elliot and I walk quickly to


    the front desk.


    “Hi! I’m Elliot Smith and I was called by management because of an emergency” Elliot says without


    breathing.


    “Yes, sir, uhm we have two situations at hand. One, there was an unsessful robbery at your vi.”


    My and Elliot’s eyes widened, “What do you mean? An Unsessful robbery?” I asked the manager.


    The manager sighs and looks at his colleagues for a moment before giving us an answer, “Well, the


    management believes that this incident is a first. Someone dressed as one of our staff came by your


    vi at around nine o’clock, a couple of minutes after you and your wife left for the yacht trip.” The


    manger says to start, “He used tools to get in and was able to roam around the vi for a solid ten


    minutes before watch dogs passed by and alerted their respective officers. The robber was able to get


    away and for some reason, we were unable to get other angles from the cameras. But we’re working


    on it.”


    Elliot and I were silent for a moment. It’s great that he got nothing but that’s another thing that scared


    us more is the fact that he roamed around the room. Which means he isn’t there to steal or not to steal


    yet.


    “There’s something wrong” Elliot says, “he didn’t use the ten minutes to rob us. He used the ten


    minutes to get to know us, the patterns, the habits, where our things are. Maybe he even bugged the


    vi to begin with” Elliot says.


    The manager looksposed but shaking from where I was standing. “We will be moving you to


    another vi and ask the staff to evacuate the vi. If you may allow us to gather your things and move


    them to the new vi, that would be great, Mr. Smith.” The manager prompts security and the staff to


    head to our vi to gather our things.


    “Yes, please” Elliot says, “Move us to a smaller suit and I will be renting the doors beside and in front


    our ours to make sure that no one takes it” Elliot says.


    “Elliot, maybe we could juts stay in a small room in the hotel. It would be a waste of money to rent three


    or four other vis for the next couple of days” I tell him. My brain automatically did the math with the


    number of doors and the number of nights from the basic rent.


    “What” Elliot looks at me. I see fear and worry from his eyes but also, I feel as if he knows something,


    or someone who might have done this.


    “Let’s just get another room, smaller, a room inside the hotel and not a separate vi. There’s security


    anyway, much safer” I tell him.


    Elliot then looks over the manager and says, “Well, you heard my wife. Get us a room here, thergest


    room in the hotel. I will be asking two security men from your agency to guard our doors when we’re


    not there. I will be asking your management to call the police so that I can file aint. I need to


    see the security men monitoring all cameras at our area.” Elliot tells the manager, says every task


    rapidly.


    My head was starting to feel light, people around were just talking and thenter, raising their voices.


    Elliot is frustrated, demanding so much from the management, asking them to do this and that, that the

    staff could not keep us. He asked for security men to be outside of our room. I started to breathe


    rapidly, my eyes losing sight until everything goes ck.
