bob vila 3 RED WATER chapter 5

CHAPTER 5

LUCKY DAY

The three of them reached the black bull hotel at 8 o clock and were exhausted from nearly 2 days of travelling across the ocean. When they walked through the entrance of the hotel there was a man at the far side of the room playing a white piano. Approaching them from the other side of the room was a well built man with black hair and a small beard who came and stood next to David. " Bob, this is Calvin. He is the captain of my boat and will be talking us to the oil rigs tomorrow." Bob and Calvin nodded at each other but didn't say anything. David went off to talk to someone leaving Bob and Molly with Calvin. Molly quickly sensed tension in the air between the two of them so decided to take Bob to get a drink. When David returned he was with a woman who worked at the hotel who would show them all to their rooms. As they were all walking up the stairs, Bob looked over his shoulder and saw a flash of metal coming from under Calvin's jacket.

The next morning Bob got out of bed and walked over to the window where he was greeted by a brilliant sight. He knew that Scottish weather could be unpredictable but Bob would have never predicted this. The sun was shining, there was no wind and the sea was as calm as the Caribbean. Bob just hoped that it would be this calm out at the oil rigs as well. He got dressed in a t-shirt and his usual jeans and trainers and met up with Molly in the lobby. Together the two of them walked down to the harbour where a fishing trawler was unloading a fresh catch of fish. At the end of the harbour wall David was waiting for them on the deck of his luxury yacht which was called the "lucky day." It was a beautiful pearl white with multiple decks and 2 red and yellow jet skis on the back. On the very top was and open area with a wooden floor. Up here was also where the controls were. The steering wheel and so on. Calvin was standing up top, he was wearing the classic, crisp white sailors suit and hat. The look was topped off with some sun glasses and in Molly's opinion, he looked a bit stupid. The two of them greeted David and went off to explore the "Lucky day."


Bob stopped exploring when he found the guest suite. Inside was a huge, black leather sofa and 42" HD T.V on the wall complete with X-BOX. Bob was halfway through a death match on "Call of duty. Modern warfare 3." When he got the sudden urge to find some food. He paused the game and went off to find the kitchen or "galley" as it's known as on a boat. Suddenly Molly ran in to him and had something very important to show him.
