People We Meet On Vacation Hardcover Novels & Stories

We arrive at our gate and see Corie and Kita sitting near the big window, sipping coffee and working on their laptops. “Uh uh ladies, laptops away! This is a vacation!” Lizzie states. “Kita, why didn’t you tell me that Lizzie was meeting us here?” I ask, as she gets up from her seat to give us each a hug. “I wanted it to be a surprise.” She laughs out, moving on to hug Lizzie. “Well color me surprised. Everyone else is meeting us at the villa, right?” I ask. “Ummm, yeah.” Kita says, uncertainly.

I needed to go on a vacation. ***

I asked. “Oh, yes! I knew her. So, how’s life, Sam? I didn’t have the catch up with you before this meeting took place. Would you like to have some coffee?” he asked me, and without thinking twice I said yes. We went out of the building together, and I saw how some of the girls giggled as soon as they saw Yuri. Yuri has been in and out of the country doing business trips. He’s one of the most hardworking man I know.

Anna POV We are at this cute little cafe for breakfast it seems to be themed as an old west vibe. I’m loving the whole experience so far we are greeted like old friends and then told to come back y’all when we leave. I had a big scrambled egg breakfast and I was glad I did when I saw our next stop. We pull up to this building that looks like a idk it’s like a hotel mixed with people and animals. The sign says Chucks Ranch and we get checked in for the weekend. Turns out Brian packed me a bag and we had been booked for a weekend vacation.

“Chicken Fazoletti in fine Lemon & white wine reduction with capers" “Excellent! We would have that" Henry shut the door and came back to sit across from her. “And if anything happens we could easily leave when we want...” he searched through one of his bags and brought out a pamphlet. He read through it. “It says here, the first edition of our vacation is the boat cruise...” he looked up at her. “This is the tricky part. “It is a kind of enclosed place and so we are going to be seeing enough of my family but this will only last for three days...” She nodded.

I didn’t realize how much I’d missed her until now. “How was your vacation?” I ask once we part. “Vacation?” She furrows her brows. “Yeah, you went to our Galveston place.” “Oh, right. It was more of a spiritual awakening than a vacation. It was great. Oh, hey, Jill.” She turns to Jill and greets her. “Hey, you look good. It must have been some awakening,” Jill says. “Oh, it was,” Gia says. “Were there men?” “If you two are going to talk about men, I’m going to go,” I say as I turn and head toward my office. Gia grabs my hand, and I stop.

The ice-cold droplets beat down on my shoulders, biting and bone-chillingly cold. In the past, whenever it rained, Leonard would always show up right on time, holding an umbrella to pick me up. Today, however, he was nowhere to be seen. Drenched and disheveled, I made my way back home in the rain. The moment I pushed the door open, a wave of warmth and laughter washed over me, making me feel utterly out of place. The Crosses sat in a circle in the living room, sorting through their vacation clothes and double-checking their travel itinerary. The excitement in their eyes was impossible to hide. Tomorrow, they would be boarding a flight to a tropical island.

A girl with brown hair chimed in, introducing herself as Sarah. "Hey Eva, welcome! I'm on vacation here too." "Hey Sarah, nice to meet you!" I said with a smile. "It's always great to meet fellow vacationers. How are you enjoying your time here?" Sarah beamed. "I'm loving it. The beach, the sunsets, the amazing food—I just can't get enough of it all. What about you?" "Well, honestly, my time here has been a bit intense so far," I admitted. "But being here with all of you by the bonfire is really helping me unwind and forget about all the stress."

Enjoying my vacation while getting paid. Today, it's not a vacation, I'm going away for my cousin's wedding. Heck! Who wouldn't go... they offered me a first-class ticket. The best thing is, Greece is also on Brandon's wish. So I got to do two things at the same time, killing two birds with a stone. "Madam, Please fasten your seatbelt," the air hostess brought me out of my train of thought. Smiling at her, I did what she asked me to do.

With that, Jack seemed to relax back into his chair. “Isn’t that what vacations are for? To have experiences that you don’t usually have in your everyday life?” he asked putting his menu down. I bit my bottom lip before answering. “I suppose so. Vacations are for experiences we don't usually have in our everyday lives. Most people don’t get to lounge around and eat bonbons all day, so that is a vacation for them. I don’t usually save people’s lives and meet handsome strangers who take me to dinner, so that’s my vacation,” I said.
