The paragliding ended after an hour.
Bonnie felt like her heart was filled with happiness. It was such a thrilling experience.
Ivor asked with a smile, “Isn’t it exhilarating? How about we have another go?”
“That won’t be necessary. Once is more than enough. I’d much prefer this memory to remain the way it is. We’ll come back in the future if we have the chance.”
She started removing her paragliding gear.
He said, “Alright. We’ll do as you say.”
Ivor got a phone call from Floyd when they got back to the hotel.
“When are you and Mrs. Bonnie coming back, Mr. Ivor?”
“I’m not sure about that. What’s the matter?” He walked toward the chair not far from him and took a seat.
“Nothing big, really. It’s just that there are too many things going on in the company, and I can’t quite hold down the fort anymore…” He sounded grouchy. Judging by his tone alone, he must’ve had the worst time ever.
‘I was supposed to go along with Ivor and Bonnie. But I was asked to stay because there was an urgent case that needed attention.
‘I didn’t know I’d be alone for this long, though. If Ivor doesn’t come back sooner, I’m going to be crushed by this insane workload.’
Ivor couldn’t help but frown. “When have you become so incapable, Floyd? It’s only been a few days since I left. Is that the best you can do?”
Floyd felt sorry for himself when he heard what his boss said.
“It’s not that I’m incapable, Mr. Ivor. There’s just too much going on here. I have no idea how to put it into words. You’ll see it when you come back.”
Ivor frowned. He was about to say something when Bonnie spoke. “I think we’ve had quite a lot of fun. It’s time we go back to our lives.”
