Chapter 13.

A little fish in my glass.

Cora had left the deck where everyone was dancing, and she knew that her men were watching Thais' witty and quirky friend, so if she disappeared he wouldn't even notice, so she walked towards the second floor in section B and opened it with a special card that opened all the rooms on the cruise ship, cabin B 530.

The lights were off, so she quietly crept to the place between the bed and where the suitcase was... she knew she could find the girl right in this small space attached to the wall, ¿wasn't it great to have a completely scared puppy running away from its owner?

The answer was clear, it was gratifying, knowing that just his name and what was said with it, was strong enough for the girl to want to escape... She was like a fish in a glass of water, she couldn't run away anywhere, she just had to live until she allowed her, but the position Thais was in was truly uncomfortable, so in the middle of that darkness, Cora carried her in her arms and laid her down on the bed.

She knew that her friend would not come, because if he wanted to return to the cabin, his men would use their second card called Samantha, so it was obvious that he would not refuse to spend the night with a beautiful lady.

Thus, Cora did nothing but lie down next to Thais and caress her sleeping face. 

It was a shame that her mother had put her in debt to escape and leave all the responsibility to her, but it was also a blessing to be able to look closely at the way someone tries to survive at any cost. It was simply impressive, rewarding and entertaining.

In addition, the girl was pretty: her face was not like anyone else's and perhaps that was the reason why she took care of this young woman; she knew that men were very abrupt and violent, they acted without thinking and analyzing things, whereas women analyze, plan, visualize and think about each one of the scenarios they have to manipulate a situation.

In other words, if men were brute force, women were the perfect strategists of a game, knowing which piece to move so that the opponent plays in their favor.

And now, that they are on a cruise ship, unable to leave the room except by means of a suitcase, somehow this felt right, it felt proper, like the mouse trying to escape from the cat, but the cat had crushed the tail of the mouse who is trying to run away to save its life and guarantee one more day of being able to open its eyes, wake up and continue surviving.

Magnificent, simply irresistible, a very entertaining hunt that, to Thais's eyes full of dark circles from the tiredness of sleeping, simply confirmed that the fun was just beginning…
