HELENA'S POV:
What the? How is it even possible? Isn't this my bag? Yes it is. This is the same blue travel bag that I had bought few days ago. Oh my god! I need to check for my passport first. I'll be in a big mess if I loose it.
I was in so much of stress that my hands were not working properly while I was trying to open the chain of the side pocket. After trying with lots of difficulties, I finally opened the chain and I saw a passport there. I took a breath of relief after seeing passport but then my eyes went wide when I realized it wasn't my passport.
It was some Aiden Rudolf's passport instead! How's that even possible? I started checking out everything inside the bag and that made a clear sense, that this bag isn't mine. My bag has been exchanged! But how's that even possible?
I tried to relax my mind and tried to think where exactly did the things go wrong? As much as I remember, I took my luggage and bag from the conveyer belt and walked towards a table while talking with Gina. Then I opened my bag with keys and then kept my passport inside and then my attention was dragged my the noise. Then, I... rushed out grabbing a bag! That means I grabbed someone else's bag in rush! Holy God!
How could I be so careless? Shit! I'll have to find my bag as soon as possible. Or else I'll loose my passport and that'll be a huge mess. I rushed towards reception of the hotel to find the room number of that person. But what if he isn't staying in this hotel? No no.... Think positive Heli.
As I reached towards the reception, I saw all the receptionists and other staffs in chaos. "Hello, umm actually I wanted to know about a person who might have checked in here. Actually my bag has been exchanged with him. His name is.." I forgot his name. God! "I'll check it out, wait a second." I was about to take out his passport when one of the receptionists said, "We're really sorry ma'am. We won't be able to help you right now. As total three planes have landed here due to emergency, all of those passengers have been shifted into this hotel and we've been registering everyone's entry. And now due to continuous load and check ins, our server has been jammed. All the computers have stopped working right at the moment. We're really very sorry."
Now this was the last thing that I wanted to hear right now. "Okay thanks." I walked out from there agitated and angry upon myself. I can't even sit quietly. I can't risk my passport after all I need to reach home. So what now? I was cursing the moment I ran with his bag. 'What now? Go and check in every single rooms what else?' I scolded myself for such foolishness.
But this is a seven storey hotel and there must be minimum a hundred rooms. And now, I'm doomed. God, did I do anything wrong in my previous life to face this problem today? I'll surely thank all my ancestors if I find my bag within the first ten rooms when I knock on the doors.
I decided to check from the last floor itself. I knocked on the first door of the corridor hoping that I'd get my bag back. A lady in her mid fifties opened a door with her face hidden behind the face mask. "Hi.. Actually, my bag has been exchanged with someone and I thought..." I was about to complete my sentence when she banged the door on my face. How rude!
Only if I'll get my bag back. I walked towards the next room and knocked on the door. A man in his late sixties opened the door and looked at me from top to bottom. "Hello sir. Actually my bag got exchanged with someone and I thought maybe he's in this room." I said as kindly as possible. He stood still and looked at me from top to bottom again and again making me feel awkward.
Suddenly, he gave a smile and started speaking, "You know, you loose something in your life and never get that back. I lost my most precious thing in my life and never got it back. I lost my favourite watch ten years ago and I haven't found it yet. You know, that was my favourite watch..." Uncle started telling me his own story while I was standing and listening like a statue there. It's not that I didn't try to stop him but he kept on going with his flow as if I don't even exist.
Finally when his phone rang inside the room, he went inside. God, I'm already tired. I just hope I won't have to work harder now. I was about to knock on the next door when I heard the sound of moans and groans. SUCH AN EMBARRASSING MOMENT! I ran out of there as soon as I could cause I was freaking out.
After trying out on two whole storey, I was tired as hell. I felt drained. I didn't even have energy to keep my eyes opened. I dragged myself towards the elevator and walked towards my room once I reached my floor. I threw myself on bed but then my stomach growled in hunger.
I was feeling too lazy to order anything but then something triggered my mind. I had seen a packet on this bag and a beautiful aroma was hitting my nostrils as soon as I opened the chain. There must be something in it. I opened the chain as fast as I could and took out the packet. My mouth filled with water after seeing cookies and pies in it.
I grabbed one of the pie as a hungry zombie and was about to put it on my mouth when my heart stopped me from doing so. "How can you eat it? That's not for you." I was feeling that my heart was right but then my mind added fuel, "So what? You had to walk so much because of this bag and now you're hungry. And anyways it's just food not any cash you're taking from someone. Eat it."
In this five minutes of fight between my heart and mind, my mind finally won and I finally gulped down every single pie and cookies from the packet. My stomach finally rested in satisfaction and I laid on bed again. Just an hour of rest, I'll start my mission back again.
