Chapter 77 76 (1/2)
”Oh ho. Look at the workaholic now. I'm happy for you kid. Having a midwife follow you two around on vacation is a lovely idea. I hope that they are paying you well for the extra time. Although free travel is probably nice. Since you are here that means you are spending the night.” He turns around and grabs two keys. He holds the one out to Cindy and the other he hands to Leo. ”The restaurant is having some pretty decent specials today.”
Leo takes the key and puts down the cash for the two rooms. ”Thank you for that information. As always no one knows that we came here.” He leads Kitty out of the room.
Cindy took her key and followed the couple out of the room. Once they are outside she looks at Leo quizzingly, ”is it wise to stay at a place you have stayed at before?”
Leo looked over at Cindy. ”It'll be fine as this place is a safe place. They won't disclose anything. Jere works for me anyways.” He chuckles and walks towards the room. He looks down at the key he was given. 'He changed my room to a bigger one, that must mean he gave my usual room to Cindy.'
”What kind of specials will be at the restaurant? What do you mean by Jeremy works for you? Is there something wrong with the key you got?” Kitty walks beside Leo and wonders why he had a slight frown on his face.
”Depends, if Jere is recommending the restaurant then it must be some really good ones. Ah, that is right I never explained. On the side, I own a few motels so that work goes more smoothly and so I can make it like I never stayed somewhere. There is nothing wrong with the room he gave us. It's just not the usual room I use. Cindy are you in room 7?”
”Nope, I am in room 18. I am glad that he recommended the restaurant. I am starting to feel hungry even though all I did was drive.” Cindy looks at her key and wonders where the room is.
”Room 18, that's upstairs on the other side of the building. We're downstairs in room 1. Let's go for dinner then we can go to relax in our rooms after we have eaten.” Leo grabs a hold of Kitty's hand and starts to lead the way to the restaurant.
Kitty smiles when he takes her hand and starts to lead the way. 'After tonight there are only two more days left. I'm nervous but I must be strong.'
Leo holds the door open and lets both women in first then follows in afterwards. He leads them to a table in the back and sits down. ”Don't worry this table is always reserved. I never know when I will come around. So, they decided to keep this table open for whenever I am in town.”
Cindy sits down and looks at the decor. ”This is an interesting place. Is it like this at most of the places you visit?”
The manager saw Leo walk in and went to the bar and told them to make the usual drink for Leo. He carried it over along with three glasses of water. ”Good evening, Sir Leo.” He places the whiskey down in front of Leo and gives everyone water. ”It is good to see you again. Is there anything I can get you ladies to drink?” He handed a menu to each of the ladies.
