Michael was awoken from his peaceful slumber by the sound of the front door slamming, followed by footsteps of some one ascending the marble staircase. Michael shot up in bed, terrified that her brother Xation had returned, even though he knew Xation was on the island of Maui. He shook Felina awake saying "Some one is in your house Felina.., wake up."
Felina awoke hearing the fear in Michael's to which she only laughed saying "This is Wednesday, my maid Sanantoina comes and takes care of the house, Wednesdays through Sundays." she reassured him. Then Sanantonia ran down the hall finding Senora Felina in her brother's bed with a man she did not know, nor did she recognize. The older rotund woman spoke in Spanish to Felina who sat up under the covers in the large, comfortable bed. From what Michael could ascertain, from his limited understanding of the Spanish language, he deduced that Xation had contacted Saraphina, whom he instructed to tell Felina that he and Bengiman were flying home to Argentina. Xation wanted Felina to be home at five o'clock, so they could talk. This information seemed to set Felina on edge. Then when Sanantonia showed Felina that days newspaper, Michael watched as the devastated Felina's poor heart sank, then saddened as she read the story of yesterday's horror.
Felina bowed her head in disgrace as she cast the paper aside staring off into space, as if she were a million miles away. "Are you okay?" Michael asked reaching out for her hand.
Felina explained to him the details of the article, how the serial rapist/murder had been stopped, she told him how the 'unknown businessman' had put and end to the killing spree, with more information to come. It was here when Michael realized what he actually done, yet he still did not feel like the 'Uknown Hero' as he was dubbed by the press. Then he noticed a change come over Felina who seemed to spring to life, like a deer on the run from from a hunter, and she shot up out of bed on to her feet tossing the newspaper back down on the bed, telling Michael. "They say here the rape happened in an English pub in the Recolleta District!"
"Well, see it doesn't even name your business." Michael tried to reassure her.
"The Cock and Bull IS the only English pub in the Recolleta District!" Felina snapped back as a plan began to form in her head. Felina said to Michael, who looked quite confused and unsure of what was happening, "Michael, let's go to your hotel room and order some room service.., I will take a look at your watches and see how I can help you out. Besides, I really do not have the energy to deal with my brother, Xation or Bengiman. So why don't you grab something out of my brother's closet and we can get out of here." Felina went over to the closet opening up the door. "Now, keep in mind it will reach at least 83 degrees today."
The morning passed in a daze, breakfast in his room, a trip to Felina's bank where she withdrew $200,000, paying him in cash, she stashed away the expensive time pieces in one of her safety deposit boxes in the massive vault, but not before she let Michael pick out his favorite, a platinum Presidential Rolex Swiss watch, for him to keep. Then Felina stopped at her realestate agents office handing him the keys to the pub, instructing him to have the locks changed immediately and place the Cock and Bull on the market. As they drove through the magnificent old city, the Paris of South America, Michael felt a little uncertain on his second day in the city, but he felt happy to be with Felina because he knew she needed him, for a little while anyway, he thought. Next, after a quick stop for a late lunch, Felina explained to Michael she wanted to get out of the city for a few days, so she invited him to come with her to her family's Estate, just north of Buenos Aires, by the Rio Negro, out in the country. Michael was delighted and intrigued when Felina said she wished for her mother and father to meet the man that saved her life. As Michael and Felina drove out of the city for the hour long ride that day, Xation, out of the unity, loyalty, respect and honor he had for his dear sister, had flown back immediately along with Bengiman, who was deeply disturbed by Felina's misfortune, for he held Xation's sister in the highest regard, the love he had in his heart for Felina was immense. However, unbeknownst to Xation and Bengiman, Felina did not want to see them. When they finally arrived, a little before 5:00 in the p.m., at his town home, Xation only found Sanantoina waiting for him. When the maid informed Senor Xation that his sister had left earlier in the day with a tall, handsome 'Americano', whom had stayed the night with Felina in Xation's bed, Xation was greatly displeased. He wondered who this handsome Americano could be. Xation was angry he and Bengiman had flown all the way back from their vacation, foregoing all their plans on Maui, missing the entire PGA tournament, just to return home and comfort their poor, dearest Felina who had been savagely violated and traumatized, only to find she had gone. Felina would not answer her cell phone when Xation called, Serena had not heard from their sister in weeks, and his mother, Aphina, told Xation she had not seen Felina since Tuesday morning when she drove back down to the city, yesterday. Xation had no idea where his sister could be, she was nowhere to be found and this caused Xaton a great deal of worry and heartache.
"Why would she leave?" Xation asked his closest friend in the world, Bengiman who shook his head uncertain while pouring himself a drink.
