Chapter Eight-Three
Chapter Eight-Three
Jason
Things have been quite a bit hectic at work. With fully transitioning Ms Venus into her new position and introducing her to the board and to the heads of departments. It took both Monday and Tuesday to introduce everyone. But I'm finally glad that that has been taken care of. It's been one of the things that really frustrated me in the past days since I told my wife about the delaying of the trip.
We're now boarding the plane, ready to leave the country. I am fucking happy honestly. I was starting to feel crowded being in one place for too long. I think I've gotten so used to traveling that it's an addiction. Because it feels weird when I don't travel. And it just dawned on me that I'm no longer going to have any business trips to take, meaning it will be a while before I travel again. But I'm going to make the best of the time I will be home with my family.
I am starting a new business though. Or more like I am going to start a new business. I am not the type to sit idle not doing anything. If I don't start a new business then I am going to invest in an upcoming business. And Olivia already told me that all I think about is business after her pussy, which is basically true. Although the list has increased now, my children are also up there in first priority.
"Oh my God, I knew you guys had money, but a private jet? Wow." I hear the girl we are going with say from behind.
"Uhh, yeah. Jason has a plane. Can you hurry in please, we have to take off." My wife tells her.
"Oh yeah. Where can I sit? And what about the baby?" She is holding a sleeping baby Liam in her arms.
"Sit wherever you want to sit and buckle in. Just hold Liam until we're on air then I will take him." Olivia tells her, taking her seat next to me after giving me Ric.
After we've all settled down, the plane starts to taxi and after a few minutes, we're on air. Olivia and I unbuckle our seat belts and stand up to buckle the sleeping kids in baby seats so that they can sleep well and hopefully longer. It's about to be one of my longest flights that I have taken. I imagine we will all be jetlagged when we get to Greece.
On the upside though, there will be at least two stops before we get there. I'm not going to sit in a plane for more than twelve hours. I know the kids won't be very happy about that either. Which will actually make the trip longer than necessary. But it's a good thing that I no longer have work to worry about. Yet I actually brought my work laptop with me on the trip.
Five hours in the air, we make a stop. Luckily for us we took off early so a lot of places are still open. After an hour, we get back to the plane and take off again. The kids are starting to be fussy, which tells me that they are tired of being on air. Even our playing with them is not helping. It's lucky for us we only have two more hours before we land.
When we finally land, Dimitrius meets us at the airport with his drivers. I'm thankful that it's already late in the day, almost seven. We will be going straight to bed. I am tired and jetlagged and so is everyone in both cars. Dimitri doesn't make small talk on the way and I'm thankful. The ride is long and the kids are still fussing.
Like my house with Olivia, his house is big and there is not a single house close to where he is. He has a big yard and there are multiple houses in it. Which is understandable seeing as he is a Mafia boss. I'm guessing all his guards live in those houses if not some of them. The house is beautiful though, which has Olivia open mouthed, making me question the girl we came with. At our one stop, she was amazed at everything we came across.
He offers me a glass of whiskey when we walk in which I accept. Desiree and Olivia are hugging and talking none stop. Olivia calls me as Desiree leads her towards the bedroom we will be occupying I'm guessing and I bid Dimitri goodnight and follow them. The house is so big, I don't know how big, especially because it's flat, not a double story like ours.
We get to the bedroom and I'm happy to say that they really set us up. There is actually a room the kids can sleep in without sharing our room with us. Desiree puts Issa on the bed that's in the middle and we put the boys besides her. We shower and get in bed. Our tired bodies shut down immediately.
It's afternoon when I wake up. Olivia is still asleep. The babies didn't let us sleep peacefully if I'm being honest. My body is screaming for me to sleep still but my stomach can't stop making noise. Isabella and Liam are also awake, I don't want them waking their mother. I put them in a stroller after changing their nappies and head out. At the end of the hallway, there is a guard who I suspect is there to guide us when we wake up. He walks me towards the dining room where there is a feast laid on the table.
I didn't think this through, I left the baby formula back in our room, and there is no one here I trust enough to stay with these two to get it. As I'm standing up to push the stroller, Dimitri comes through the kitchen door.
"Can you stay with these two so that I go get their formula?" I ask him after he gets me. He looks like he's going to say no though, but a moment later he agrees.
"Yeah, might as well start practicing now." He says.
"Wait, are you two expecting?" I ask him, momentarily forgetting the formula.
"Uhh yeah. Des has decided that getting pregnant was good for her." He says scratching his head and i laugh.
"She has huh? Are you happy about that though?" I ask him smiling and he smiles back and nods.
"Congratulations man, let me just go grab the formula and I will be back in a sec to introduce you." I say then dash out to the room where I find Ric also awake.
I check his nappy too before I collect the formula and baby food for Issa then pick Ric up and go back. It's easy to navigate the house alone this time, quick study and all. I find the two babies laughing with Dimitri sitting infront of them.
"I think you're ready man." I tell him as I hand Ric to him to prepare bottles for the three of them.
"I know I am." He says smiling.
