7:30 am
I woke up with a start. I picked up my phone and answered
the call “Hello…Sirah talking”
“Hello, Sirah. It Pierre haven’t forgotten about today
right?”
“Today? What happened to today?” There was a brief silence
and I gasped “Oh My God!... I’ll be there in 10mins hold on” I immediately
rushed to the bathroom and took a quick bath, wore my clothes and grabbed my
coat then brushed my hair and tied it up with a scarf. I wore my boots and
joined Pierre outside.
“You’re late”
“Sorry about that. I forgot about today”
“It’s okay. Let's go” we got into his car and he drove for
about 30mins and it was so silent so I decide to start a convo.
“Well we’ve been on the road for 30mins wanna have a convo
and besides where we going?”
“Wanna take you to one of my favorite places”
“Alright…so what do you do?”
He took a glance at me and then said “I’m kind of like a
model and content creator”
“Wow that’s cool. Well I work for my Dad but I plan on quitting
and start my own career.”
“Career?”
“Yeah. I’m into Fashion designing and came to Paris to
accept my second offer” I said and grinned
“Which brand do you work for?”
“Belle” I said “So how old are you?”
“35”
“Wow tf… you look like you just in your early 20s” I looked
at him in amusement “You a Vampire or what?”
He chuckled “No I’m not”
“Well I’m 28…guess you’re older” I said, and I definitely like
that. We arrived at the Eiffel tower and I just sighed
“Here we are” He said with a proud smile on his face as he
looked up
“That’s it…?”
“What do you mean ‘that’s it’?”
“Nothing Magical as in movies…Ha!” I rolled eyes
“Why does this feel like Deja Vu” He grumbled in French with
a long face
“What’s up with the long face Pielle”
“Pi-erre…nothing”
“Jeez can I just call you Pie it won’t hurt to shorten your name”
“No. no one’s shortened my name before”
“Well great I’ll be the first. Come on take me to where I could
have some Croissants”
“You could pronounce that one so properly why can’t you get
mine right?” he said as he walked away. I sighed and followed him. We took a
short walk and got to a restaurant “Two croissants and a cup of Iced Americano…?”
“Expresso”
“Expresso…”
“Okay Monsieur” I stared outside the glass. The shop had a
very nice view of the Eiffel Tower interesting…I felt my phone ring and I picked
it up
“Hello Kai. It’s rare to see you face-timing me. What’s up?”
“Wait you at the Eiffel Tower?”
“Yeah, wanna see?”
“Yes Please” I faced my phone toward the Eiffel Tower and I could
hear his gasp of amusement “So beautiful”
“Enough of that Kai…any lead?”
“Yeah, found a suitable company whose ready to work with us
and launch the brand. But you have to be present for it. You can’t be absent or
even have a Zoom call, they said they needed you physically present for the
completion of the contract”
“Do they have to be so
troublesome geez. Anyways thank you, Kai, I’mma reward you when I get there”
“Nice one boss…Enjoy your limited time in Paris”
“haha so funny”
“And don’t go putting all your cards on the table and stay
ou…” I hanged up
“He nags a lot”
“That’s the kind of expression I needed when I showed you
the Eiffel Tower”
“yh I don’t get impressed so easily except if it's food or
wine” I paused “Speaking of which would you like t join me for a glass at home?”
He twitched his lips “Sure
I’ll be glad to join you”
