I stared at the pictures on my work table for a while then smiled. I was so satisfied and happy with the life I have now. I heard footsteps running into the study and I looked up it was my last child...

 "Mummy! mummy!!" Jamie called. I stared at him questionably "Barbara and Philippe are fighting over the remote again" he said

"What is it again these children won't kill me" I sighed "let's go" I followed Jamie as we went to the siting room "Barbara! Philippe! cut it out! give the remote to me fast!"

"Mama Philippe is being a dickhead" Barbara grumbled

"No you are!" Philippe snapped back

"stop it both of you i said no swearing in my house you two" I took the remote from both of them and switched off TV "Sit properly both of you even you Jamie"

"There he is the snitch" Barbara said under her breath

"Great another lecture"

"No son today will kind of be different...since you guys have refused to watch Tv in peace i have an idea. What about I told you guys How I Met Your father?"

"Wow really mummy?" Jamie asked as his eyes sparkled

"Yes baby. So y'all wanna sit tight for the ride cause its gonna be fun...so it started in 2020..."

          March 18, 2020

   I stared at the handsome guy who was also staring at me. What does he think of me a tool or the central bank? Knowing I have soft spots for gay guys. I sighed and signaled the waiter and paid for what we ordered.

  "Boo let's break up" I said as I sipped my coffee and relaxed "I don't care wanna do let's just break up i've had enough of you"

   "Just like that mama? did I do anything wrong? what I do this time?"

"Let's see...The fact that you don't let me touch you anymore but yet you use my money on your boysfriends now don't you?" I leaned in and glared at him

  "It's not like that mama...one more chance it won't happen again. I promise."

"Yh that's what you said last time Yamato." I opened my hand "Give it to me. My card"

    "But..."

"Don't waste my time anymore...Fast Osiso" He reluctantly gave the card to me. I took it with a grin "Ok then Yamato see your beautiful *** never" I stood up and walked out of the coffee shop and got into the car waiting for me "Kai take me to the airport"

    "Yes boss" Kai looked at me through the rear glass "Young miss are you going to pick someone from the airport?"

"No Kai. I wanna go to France i'm sick of Japan. Besides I think its time to go start my Fashion Career"

"What about your Father?" he asked

"Abeg..Leave my Father first lemme settle down then I'll know how I'll handle him."

"And the job you were asked to do here?"

"Kai" I called his name warningly "Don't get me pissed off I've had enough as it is"

"Sorry Boss"

           ***********

I arrived in Paris. One of my favorite places in the world. Always dreamt of having my own fairytale romance here in France. i took a deep breath and entered the ride that I had booked. I gave him the address to the apartment I had prepared I would stay in. I got to the building checked in and went directly to my room. while I was inputting the code to my apartment, I saw a man struggling to enter his apartment. I paused then walked up to him

    "Need any help?" I asked

"No thank you I can handle this"

"Sorry but this lady don't take no for an answer"

"44199" I put in the code I just heard and helped him inside. Damn...I can't believe I'm helping people I don't know now .

"You're welcome" I was about to leave when he held my hand

"Don't go...please Luke stay"

"Ahh so he a gay buttercup...I guess he'd be going through a breakup right now" I bent over to have a better look of his face. He sure is handsome "tsk tsk its a pity fr" I tried removing my hand from his but he had a tight grip "Yo! bro! let go of my hand" I struggled for a while then tickled him he lost grip and I flinged my hand away. I heard someone typing in the passcode and I hurriedly opened the door to a tall handsome dude.

   "Who are you?"

"You must be Luke if I'm right?"

"Yh and who's asking?" he looked at me sizing me up

"His new neighbor. By the way i helped him inside his apartment just now soo I'm out. Besides your boyfriend seemed seriously wasted" i said and walked towards my apartment

"Thank you...but we're not together anymore"

"Yh right I don't care"

                             ***********

He slowly opened his eyes, his head hurt like crazy and he was pretty hung over. He stood up slowly and walked sluggishly to his bathroom. He turned on the tap and splashed on water on his face as he stared at himself in the mirror "Damn...Pierre it's already been 3months get over yourself" he sighed and turned away. He might need to hit the gym real quick he felt so stiff. he tinted his head to the side when he saw the bracelet on the ground. Whose bracelet would it be? he twitched his lips then picked it up and stared at it for while...well it surely isn't Luke's. Anyways he comes back from the gym.....

  I silently did my squats. I felt the lingering eyes. I sighed and shaked my head that's why I love my personal space. I dropped the weight lifter and sat down and reached for my bottle of water. A man walked towards me.

 "Excuse me miss, are you done?" he asked me in French and I looked up

I looked "No monsieur I think I'm done" Hmm...he does look familiar for some reason. Ahh he must be the man I helped in front of his apartment “I guess you look somewhat brighter today”

The man looked at me and furrowed his brows “Do you know me....?”

“Apparently yeah. I helped you into your apartment last

night remember…?”

He shook his head “No I don’t think I remember…sorry”

“hmm...” he walked away with a confused look on his face. I just

shrugged it off hope he remembers though cause bro looks fine as hell. I stood

up and left the gym I think I’ve had enough for today. I walked to the coffee

shop just across the street. I ordered for an expresso and waited for a minute

and got my order and went to sit down. I felt my phone ring and when I saw the

caller ID I hissed. He’s never gonna take a break now would he what so

annoying.

      “Yamato what the

hell do you want?”

“I’m sorry Sirah…please I still want you, don’t leave me

hanging like that”

“Jeez you trying to Seduce me dressing like that. You’re

looking like a whole damn meal baby boy” I sipped my coffee “You’re not at home

right baby boy? Whose house is it?”

“I’m at a hotel. My friends wanted to have some fun so I tagged

along”

“Oh my really… you’re having fun now. Anyways don’t call me

Yama-kun we have nothing going on anymore so just stop you’re getting rather

clingy…besides if you were clingy back then you would’ve come to Paris with me”

I said and snickered

  “What?! You’re in

Pa..” and beep I ended the call. Seriously exhausted just talking to him for

real.

“Excuse me?”

“Yes? What is it?” I asked without looking up

“Sorry for being a lil ignorant this morning. Didn’t know

you were the one who helped me into my apartment.”

I looked up “Oh it’s you”

“Thank you. Can I pay for your coffee as a sign of

appreciation or even take you to dinner?”

“No. But, you could do something else instead”

“And what is it miss?”

I grinned “You see I just arrived in Paris yesterday

coincidentally… Could you by chance be my tour guide?”

“You could just pay for one of those Tour guides to give you

a tour…”

“Sorry but I don’t work well with crowds”

He looked away for a while then nodded his head “Fine”

“Great.” I clasped my hands together “My name is Sirah how

bout you?”

“I’m Pierre, Pierre Beaumont”

I stretched my hand for a handshake which he accepted “Nice

meeting you pielle”

“It’s Pierre”

“Sorry it’s kinda of difficult to pronounce”

“I get that…you’re a foreigner right?”

“Yh…anyways mind sharing your contact details?”

“Yeah sure.” We exchanged our contacts and both  went home together.

           *******************

“I’m telling you Laura he’s the real deal”

“That’s what you said last time Siri. Besides, I don’t know

why you’ve got such a fetish for gay men and you ended up initiating me too.

You and BL are 5 and 6”

“Oh sweetheart who isn’t a Yaoi fan? I mean for me they’re

the best on bed and talking about the girly ones, girl I just love their

attitude for real.” I sighed “You should see him though…he just broke up with

his boyfriend and even that one is fine as hell too. Thank God I came to Paris”

 “So any of them your type”

she asked

“Pielle definitely is but not Luke. He looked toxic and you

can’t have two toxic people in a relationship”

“Yeah right. At least you’re admitting you’re toxic”

“Seriously Laura” we both giggled

“I’ll cover for you as long as I can.”

“Yes sweetie you’re the best of the best’s best”

“Yeah yeah, I know. See your beautiful *** later”

“Bye…”

**Back to 2049**

 “Wait Mom you mean

Aunt Laura also had your fetish for gay men?!” Philippe asked

“Yes, son. I mean we’re best friends so whatever I liked I dragged

her into it. You know Before your Aunt Laura got married to your Uncle we were

wild back in the day. Getting as much men as we want. Laura got tired though

and decided to settle down so she did, while I decided to explore the world

more. Then I got to paris when I met him and my mentality completely changed”

  “Who is he? Is it

Dad?” My Daughter, Barbara asked

“No Baby…let’s continue”
