Will it be worth it?

Aside all the single men was a man perceive to be a police officer perhaps an investigator,

The crew quietly walked to the common area with this man and they spoke in low tone .

Why were this number of people gathered, and why was i in their midst? The atmosphere was filled with unease and uncertainty with individuals exchanging glances and whispering softly, it was taking an hour yet we haven't been addressed, I watched one of the crew I guess he was their leader as he was redirecting and re instructing information during the late evening

What's going on?! The woman at the back yelled, the woman in her early forties with a ginger hair, her brown eyes were captivating even tho I could see the fury on her face , beside her was her husband he was putting on a wedding ring, dressed in savile row's suit and jimmy cod's ( frosty) shoe, A clear display of luxury, she and husband was said to owned one of the best materials and leather on earth. They have eyes for quality items, clothes and all tells it all.

What's going on!? She said again, this time around her voice was louder, I watched the crew leader step forward to address the issue

An item went missing. He eventually uttered words,

Murmurs became louder as we looked at each other suspiciously.

It is a very expensive piece as he emphasizes on VERY with a disappointing look. Then why were we gathered? I murmured.The man continued we will be very discreet as possible, we just need to find this item..

What's the item if I may ask? the lady beside me asked, her scent was familiar, this scent..... where?. I was trying to recollect ,

The cabin? The one Jeffery was in (the tall slender man) Ahan the ca...bi..n I said quietly they weren't couples, they deceived everyone into thinking they never knew each other, All through the brunch and the karaoke night, they never spoke to each other, Jeff was an influencer, probably the age of 27-28, he was light-brown with a perfect body, he has been influencing for 3 years now ever since the past few months, never heard the talks of Jeff, seeing him on this ship makes me wonder.

It might be a necklace perhaps a ring, everyone here smells luxury why the stress? I was still in my thoughts.

It's a missing art piece, a sculptural small piece not a heavy one, cost a fortune, ought to be displayed at the London Art Gallery in New York this month. The police man said, we happened to be in the area it was,

What area? An average man in the midst asked? He identified himself as Fernando, owned one of the bestselling cosmetics in the industry along-side with him was his beautiful wife Laura can't believe I'd meet this beautiful people today.

Thomas here had this piece with him everywhere he goes, he never removed the bag from his neck because the leather was sawn with the thickest material and had a metal attached to it, with a different lock with it, it takes 2 hrs to cut the bag and take whatever item inside , surprisingly everywhere you see Thomas you see his bodyguard Andrew, Andrew claimed he never left his sight for a sec, that was the problem, they were sure the item was in the bag, what now? Why are we cut in their mistake? Somehow they must have misplaced it, but how?

We were invited one after the other for questioning, I was already going through my shit , I was only asked to do a checkup on the built man Thomas. I had my suspect on Andrew and the Miss with the keys, if they truly said it takes 2 hrs to unlock the bag.

It was 5am I got a call, this time around a trip to London in two days time, this was my way of life, trying to run, for how long? My mental health was at it peak, it's been 3years now of constant abuse from Raymond, he lied to me , leaving this marriage with nothing was my greatest fear, is this the life i promised my kids ? Never wanted them to be miserable, their father was a cheat and abuser and he made sure he cut everything from me, to tie me down to this dreadful life I called marriage, been working my ass of to save up for my family.
