THE LIE: DECEPTION TO THE CEO

-I don’t want to separate from you, mother -confessed Amber -However, if you dislike Dylan so much, I will respect your decision too.

-Thank you! Now please go to sleep quietly and rest. God already gave us the answer: he is fine, as well as the crew.

-Yes, mother Thank you! You too, for praying for him, even though you don’t want to know anything about him either,” said Amber.

-I never said that! In spite of everything he did to us, I like him better than the other one,” said Sabrina, leaving her daughter astonished, “Christopher goes straight ahead, good or bad, but he does things straight, not behind his back.

-Is that what you think of Dylan?” asked Amber, staring at her mother.

-Sadly, yes, and don’t ask me why,” she added, giving him a kiss on the forehead and leaving the room.

Amber’s last thought that night, before falling asleep, was precisely for Christopher, remembering the gesture of disappointment and sadness she had on her face, when she observed with hatred how Dylan had taken her by the hand and then by the waist…

On Bird Island

The next day, as soon as the day cleared, they all left the plane, to walk through the bushes and undergrowth, in search of a run or threshing that could take them to the City, to get the help that would get them off the island.

The captain distributed among the six crew members of the plane, including Christopher, the tools, food, clothes and towels that they needed with extreme urgency, leaving the rest of their luggage in the plane, and later they would see how they would recover it.

-Let’s divide up,” proposed the captain, “I will leave this red handkerchief tied here on this trunk, as it will be the place where we will meet in the end, if we don’t get anything on this island.

-We will divide into two groups of three, one will go north and the other south,” added the co-pilot.

-Okay,” Christopher replied. One group was commanded by the Captain and the other by the Copilot.

They said goodbye and walked for three hours, without finding any sign of life on the supposed island, which according to the captain’s calculations, was Isla de Los Birds, to the east of Islander.

Arriving at the beach, each group, in the area where it was located, went into the sea and took a swim, contemplating Christopher, with persistence the body of the stewardess as she changed and put on a bathing suit to go into the sea.

-Rossy, from what I can see, you did come prepared,” commented Christopher.

-Always, sir!” she answered with a smile, very calm, not showing at all the normal nervousness of a person who is lost.

-I congratulate you for that!” added Christopher, chatting with her and accompanying her to bathe in the sea.

Suddenly, he himself noticed in the distance a group of three people approaching, clearly deducing that it was the captain, the other stewardess and the technician. Upon meeting them, the captain informed them….

-I am almost certain that we are on a private island, abandoned and apparently untouched, since no buildings are visible anywhere.

“Let’s trust Christopher, that your people begin the rescue work, so let’s try to be alert of any noise, by air, sea or land, to begin to make signals, with the tools that I gave them and which they bring in their respective bags.

-Yes, captain!” answered the co-pilot, observing how Christopher, contemplated Rossy getting jealous, because he has always been interested in her, although she does not pay attention to him.

At that same moment, in Santiago de LeonText property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Daniela and her husband Thiago left in one of her father’s planes to Islander, to join the search for Christopher. She could no longer hide the news, which was already spreading like wildfire in all the networks and in which they expressed that he was on the plane.

For that reason, she spoke first with his mother and then with his father, who took the news calmly. She prepared them first, reassuring them both that her brother was alive and that they should remain calm.

On the other hand, in Islander

Elian, arriving with the first rays of dawn, chartered a fleet of helicopters, to scour the area and all neighboring areas. For this, he took into consideration that only ten minutes from the airport, the plane was reported missing, therefore, that will be the first route to follow.

He waited only for the arrival of Christopher’s sister and brother-in-law, who will go in two of the helicopters, in case first aid is required, to leave with the first rescue group. This operation, will be directed by himself.

So making a planning of the zone, the first four helicopters left, following the four cardinal points, with a limit each one of up to two hours and a half for the outward journey and the same distance for the return.

Later, the other four helicopters will leave, everything will depend on how long it takes to find the plane and therefore, Christopher. An hour and a half after they had left, they located the plane near some bushes, with no evidence of an accident.

A few minutes later, the same helicopter spotted the crew on the shore of the beach, making signals towards the sky. That is, as Elian had planned. He took into consideration that an airplane travels a greater distance in ten minutes than a helicopter. Precisely at that distance was the missing ship.

-Christopher, Christopher, little brother,” Daniela shouted as she got off the helicopter and ran to where he was, smiling. After kissing and hugging his sister, he hugged his assistant, thanking him for this support.

-Thank you very much Elian, if you don’t hurry, I don’t know what would have happened, because apparently we are on a private and abandoned island,” he clarified.

-That’s right, that’s why it took us a little longer, when I presented to the authorities the plans of the flight route I would take, this was an obstacle,” Elian clarified.

-The important thing is that they are already here,” assured the captain, who immediately radioed the Commander in charge of the rescue efforts to communicate what had happened.

-What were you doing in these parts, little brother,” asked Daniela intrigued, “I never heard of this City, in the expansion of the family business, nor in your business,” she questioned.

-Pursuing a dream! -he assured sadly- That is definitely over.

“This lesson has been more than enough,” he added, hugging his sister tightly, who felt him tremble…
