Is this destiny?

~ Seattle, Cabin ~

During lunch, Aiden was slowly chewing the food while thinking when is the good time for him to get that urgent call from office. He was imagining his facial expression when he tells them that he needs to work in the afternoon. It needs to be believable, nothing over the top. He should look sorry that he can\'t join them.

He heard Stella speak with Sarah. "I\'m glad that Aiden joined in training. If you ever end up in trouble, you can rely on his help."

Aiden was happy that Stella counts on him to protect Sarah. A moment later he felt guilt eating him up from inside because he wants to avoid hellish afternoon.

Unaware of Aiden\'s internal conflict, Sarah smiled, "Mom, sometimes you say things as if you are predicting that bad things are coming."

"What if they are more than predictions?" Stella was serious.

Sarah\'s smile froze. Aiden also faced Stella expecting to hear what is coming next.

Stella looked at both of them with a hint of concern showing on her face. "You know that I would not call you here if it\'s not for a reason. Something is coming, and I hope to get you ready... to get both of you ready. You will need to rely on each other, and there is a possibility that will be only thing you have: each other. It\'s still early to tell you the details, but I hope that you can push through these two weeks knowing that I\'m not doing this on a whim."

Sarah nodded in understanding and looked at Aiden. She was happy that her mom is including him as well. It means that her mom really accepts him.

Aiden was at a loss. How can he use sneaky methods to avoid training after hearing that speech? Stella said that this is so that he can protect Sarah. How can he say no to that? Aiden grumpily poked at his food with a fork and started preparing himself mentally for what is coming.

Sarah was not sure why he looks upset. \'He said that morning training was not a big deal, and now mom implied that she acknowledges his skills. Why would he be upset about that?\'

~ Salina ~

In Salina, Jeff was about to leave their hotel suite, when Isabella arrived.

Right off the door, she asked with a big smile, "Is Anna ready?"

"Yes." Jeff looked toward the bedroom and few seconds later JoAnna stepped into the living room.

"Isi! I look forward to this afternoon. I don\'t remember last time I went girl-shopping."

Isabella was happy to see that JoAnna is excited.

"It looks like you forgot about me." Jeff sulked seeing that JoAnna is only focused on Isabella.

JoAnna looked at him dotingly. "How can I forget about you? Don\'t be silly." She ran into his arms and they kissed passionately. As soon as they started kissing, JoAnna forgot that Isabella is there. Jeff didn\'t care.

After a long passionate kiss, Jeff looked at JoAnna with eyes full of fire. "Mmm... this should last me through the meeting."

JoAnna giggled. "You are easy to satisfy."

"It\'s not about the quantity, it\'s about quality... Your kisses are the best." Jeff traced JoAnna\'s lips with his index finger. "These soft lips don\'t exist anywhere else in the world... your taste is addictive... "

JoAnna opened her mouth and his finger went between her lips. She sucked on it.

Jeff\'s body twitched, and his voice got deeper, "...and your tongue makes me go wild." He closed his eyes and took a deep breath while her tongue twirled around tip of his finger. "Any more of that and I will not go to the meeting." He retracted his finger out of her mouth, gave her few short kisses and wished them to have a good time shopping.

As Jeff closed the door behind him, JoAnna faced Isabella who was staring at her.

JoAnna was embarrassed that Isabella got to see two of them at a moment that should be private. She cleared her throat, "Sorry about that... we can leave anytime."

"Not a problem, not a problem...", Isabella blinked few times and smiled.

JoAnna could see Isabella\'s chest raising rapidly as she was taking deep breaths. It was obvious that Isabella is excited. \'Maybe Isi is one of those people who like to watch?\' That was the only thought that made sense in JoAnna\'s mind at that point.

…

Two girls had fun shopping. Two bodyguards followed few steps behind them but didn\'t approach dressing rooms.

Isabella was making JoAnna try all kinds of clothes.

JoAnna enjoyed playing a model and making goofy faces. She really does not remember last time she had so much fun doing girl shopping in a relaxed atmosphere.

Isabella took some photos of JoAnna and sent them to Jeff.

"You really have a great body!" Isabella admired JoAnna while they changed in the oversized dressing room.

"Thank you... your body is good also." JoAnna responded without much thought.

"No, not like yours." Isabella approached JoAnna while looking at her chest. "See?" Isabella slightly lifted her breasts which were hugged tightly in a black lace bra. "Mine are too big, not proportionate." Her gaze moved to JoAnna\'s breasts. "Yours are very good. Proportions are right where they should be."

JoAnna giggled. "I never heard any man complain that a woman has too big breasts. That area is always the bigger the better."

"Hmmm...", Isabella checked herself in the mirror. On her top she only had a bra, and on the bottom a short summer dress. She cupped her breasts in her hands. "Men think that bigger the better... what about you? What is your opinion?"

JoAnna was looking at two tops that she tried on previously and was comparing them. "My opinion?" JoAnna thought for a second. "I think that as long as you are happy with yourself, you will be beautiful no matter what others say."

"I\'m not that confident." Isabella\'s voice came from behind JoAnna.

JoAnna turned around and found that Isabella is right next to her. \'Why do I feel that she is too close?\'
