After laughing and hanging up the phone, Liliana took off her vest, and slipped on her flip flops as she made her way out to Chamille.
Liliana found Chamille sitting at the small bar area by the kitchen and typing away on her laptop.
"Hey, did you reach your parents?" Chamille asked, Liliana just as she sat down.
"Yeah I did, thank you." Liliana confirmed.
"Okay great. So, the lessons continue. So, as you can see on long distance trips such as these, we are escorted to and from the hotel. Here is Mr. Cavalier's schedule for how long he will be staying here. As you can see, we are spending the next 3 days here, and departing Monday morning." Chamille began to explain as she handed Liliana a folder with all the information regarding their trip.
"So, after every flight, once you've landed and checked into the hotel, you have to log into the company's website and update your progress. So, because this is your first day, you have to log in under my account as the trainee. What you will do is go on the website and select where you are on the trip. Right now, we are post departure, arrival overseas confirmed." Chamille continued to coach Liliana who followed attentively.
After logging onto the website and following Chamille's instructions, Liliana smiled and said, "done."
"Good, now time for your quiz." Chamille announced, and Liliana suddenly exclaimed "Quiz?!"
"Relax." Chamille laughed and shook her head as she added "it's just a few questions to see what you've learned so far. Nothing crazy, this is all for me to see how much you've managed to retain in one trip. Depending on how well you do, I'll know how to pace your training, and you never know, maybe you might get a chance to go solo before the seven training shifts are up."
"Alright." Liliana answered, feeling a bit more confident.
"Okay, while you do that, I'm going to call my husband and check on them." Chamille explained as she handed Liliana the quiz and then headed to her room.
Liliana moved from the bar to the sitting area in order to sit a bit more comfortably.
As she started answering the questions, she found the quiz to be easy, simply reviewing procedural materials, which Liliana already had prior knowledge of given her experience as a flight attendant.
Before she knew it, Liliana was flying through the questions, and she only paused when a black phone rang in the kitchen.
Liliana looked over at the phone skeptically, unsure of whether she should let Chamille answer the call. Liliana had no idea who could be on the other side of the phone, and given that it was her first day, she would rather not overstep her boundaries.
Chamille peeked her head from the hall as she cradled a phone in her hand and she whispered to Liliana, "that's Mr. Cavalier, would you mind getting that please?" And before Liliana could comment, Chamille had retreated to her room.
Taking a small gulp as the phone rang once again, Liliana placed the laptop down and headed towards the kitchen.
She grabbed the phone just as one last ring resonated from the phone, and with a nervous jump of her heart, Liliana brought the phone up to her ear.
"Hello?" Liliana answered meekly, her heart thrumming as she heard his voice from across the phone.
"Liliana?" He called out, and Liliana replied, "this is she."
"Where is Chamille?" Mr. Cavalier demanded, causing Liliana to frown at his tone.
"She is currently on the phone, is there something I can help you with?" Liliana offered out of courtesy, a part of her hoping he would deny, while the other wanted him to say yes.
"Do you know how long she will be?" Mr. Cavalier asked, completely ignoring Liliana's offer.
"I cannot say sir." Liliana replied, truthfully, and the phone went silent for a moment.
Liliana was tempted to ask if he was still there, but after a few seconds of silence, he simply stated, "I need you to pick up a suit from the front desk downstairs and bring it up to my room."
"And where is your room?" Liliana asked, before she face palmed herself. She couldn't help the way her tone came out. His lack of manners was slowly getting under her skin.
There was another moment of silence before Mr. Cavalier spoke up once again and said, "My room is on the 20th floor."
Before Liliana could respond, Mr. Cavalier had hung up the phone.
Sighing out a breath made up of nerves mixed with slight aggravation, Liliana made her way to Chamille's room.
She knocked on the door but received no response. Liliana knocked once more, and when she heard nothing, she opened the door just a crack to see if Chamille was okay.
When Liliana managed to catch a glimpse of Chamille, she was curled up on the bed, her eyes closed as she slept quietly.
Not wanting to disturb her, Liliana sighed and decided to get the suit herself.
Placing her close toed shoes back on, and putting her vest back on, Liliana exited the suite, making sure she left a note on Chamille's door to let her know where she had gone.
Then grabbing her key card, Liliana headed towards the elevator. She rode down to the lobby and headed towards the front desk where a perky concierge stood with a trained smile on her face.
"Hello, I was told to pick up a suit for Mr. Cavalier?" Liliana said, with a friendly smile as she approached the blonde with blue eyes.
"And you are?" The blonde questioned her tone slightly degrading.
"Liliana. I'm new to the company, it’s nice to meet you." Liliana introduced herself with a brighter smile which quickly faded when the blonde looked at her from head to toe then simply turned away to fetch the suit.
Taken aback, and slightly disheartened, Liliana tried to keep her composure.
The blonde returned with an expensive looking black suit zipped in a clear plastic bag, and she all but dumped it in Liliana's arms.
As Lili managed to get a comfortable hold on the hanger without dropping the suit on the floor, the rude blonde smiled none too kindly and added "you shouldn't seem too eager to please Mr. Cavalier sweetie, he doesn't go for wallflowers."
Frowning, Liliana tried to not take the blonde's words to heart.
As far as Liliana was concerned, the blonde didn't know her, and she had no intentions on pleasing Mr. Cavalier. All she wanted to do was her job.
"Um thanks." Liliana replied, with a small smile, then she turned away awkwardly and headed back towards the elevator.
As Liliana rode up, she felt a lump form in her throat as the word 'wallflower' echoed in her mind.
It didn't take too much IQ for people to notice that she was not in Mr. Cavalier's league. Heck she wouldn't even dream of catching his attention.
All she wanted to do was her job.
Liliana shook her head as she tried to not dwell much on the blonde's unnecessary verbal attack, and when the elevator dinged, Liliana drew in a deep breath and headed out onto the floor.
Exiting the elevator, Liliana found herself in a hallway which led up to the only door on the floor.
When she reached it, she saw a small box which held a button that resembled a doorbell.
Pressing the button, Liliana waited.
She took in another breath when the door buzzed, and the sound of a lock clicked.
Liliana placed her hand on the cold doorknob and turned it.
The door opened with a soft click, and Liliana pushed her way into Mr. Cavalier's suite.
Liliana tried her best not to gawk at the details of Mr. Cavalier's suite, but she couldn't stop her eyes from wandering.
"Place it on the chair over there." She heard Mr. Mr. Cavalier dictate with his back to her as he typed away on his laptop.
Nodding though he couldn't see her, Liliana walked around the living area, gulping when she came in his line of view, and placed the suit on the chair facing Mr. Cavalier.
Once she did so, she turned to Mr. Cavalier, but his eyes remained trained to the screen of his laptop.
Once he said, nothing, clasping her hands before her body, Liliana debated on whether she should leave.
After figuring that she was no longer on the plane, Liliana decided to exit.
She flashed her eyes towards Mr. Cavalier who still had not said, another word, then Liliana mentally shrugged and began to walk away.
She walked out of Mr. Cavalier's line of view and headed for the door.
She sighed, grateful that she managed to deliver his suit without an issue, and she picked up her pace towards the door.
Liliana's hand had just reached the cold doorknob when she heard his voice ring though her ears, "did I dismiss you Liliana?"
