Paris, FranceCa.s.sie stepped out of the bed and went to the kitchen to make her breakfast. She stretches her arms and did a few exercises before she fried one egg and bacon, then toasted a loaf of b.u.t.tered bread.
After having breakfast and now done her bath, she"s ready to go back to the hospital today. Last night, Levi drop her at her uncle Martin"s house. She went to the small garage then took out the bike that owns by Mimie.
Ca.s.sie misses the place. Even though she didn"t stay longer in Paris, but it captured her heart and have been in love with this country. No, there are many places she loves here in Europe, not only Paris. She dreams of going on a road trip and visited them all one day.
Can she do that on her honeymoon?
Wait, why she"s already thinking about that? She even doesn"t have a boyfriend, and she is way too young yet!
Ahhh… She should stop thinking this way. She had more important dreams she aims to achieve soon, that is why she wants to hurry the days and she finishes school soon.
Well, she was probably just influenced by what she watched and read on the net. Seeing those beautiful places is captivating on the heart.
Okay, it"s time for her to forget it. Ca.s.sie continued pedaling and turned left on the next corner. She wanted to pa.s.s on that street.
"Ca.s.sie? Is that you?" Asked of a woman she saw outside that building
That building actually stands as a household, then both sides are a school for a French cla.s.s and school for Culinary Arts.
"h.e.l.lo, Miss Loura," she greeted her French teacher.
"My goodness! Look at you! You grew even beautiful!" Loura Bennett Bastien happily hugs Ca.s.sie.
"Wait, you were here to visit your uncle? I heard about the accident. Am praying for Mr. Martin to wake up soon and recover quickly."
"Thank you, Miss Loura."
Ca.s.sie could hear children laughs inside the building.
"Hmm. . . the boys woke up now."
"Ah, Raven and Saven? They surely big now."
"Yes, they are Ca.s.sie." Loura smiled.
"Uncle Quinn!"
Is what the twins crying excitedly. "Carry me too!"
Ca.s.sie could overhear to the twins are like playing with someone they called Quinn.
"Oh, our guest is up now too, I will go in now Ca.s.sie. Please, join us for dinner in one of these days, okay?" Loura"s invitation.
"I will, Miss Loura. It"s been a while since I"ve eaten Mr. Bastien"s recipes. Definitely, I will look forward to it!"
"How about tomorrow night?"
"Sure, that"s fine, Miss Loura."
"Then it settled!"
"Thank you, Miss Loura. I"ll be going now."
"Take care, Ca.s.sie," Loura wishes for her.
Now Ca.s.sie has left, Loura climbed the stairs and entered the house.
"Have you been talking to someone outside?"
"Yes. Do you remember Mr. Castillo"s niece? I saw her pa.s.sing by so we converse a little, then I invited her for dinner tomorrow."
"Oh, one of your students. Yes, I remembered her. She"s visiting her uncle then."
"Yes. Alright, come on kids! Quinn put them down, they were heavy."

"It"s alright. Am rare to visit you all since am too busy from work now."
"You know, Quinn. There is a solution there."
"What?" Quinn sense what Larry would be going to say next.
"Then get married and have twins of your own!"
"Shut up, don"t start on me first thing in the morning."
Quinn giving them a sour face. The couple knew how Quinn really doesn"t like the word married. He always has that long and sour face as response and so Larry laughing hard.
"Okay, let"s have some breakfast now!"

Paris General Hospital
"Hey, Ca.s.sie."
Levi entered a private room that arranged by their family"s company for Martin Castillo.
"Levi? Isn"t you have a cla.s.s?"
"Later, I was just stopping by. What are you reading?" Levi noticed the book she is holding. Levi got curious because he is not that familiar with the cover.
"Guess what?" Ca.s.sie showed the front cover and Levi was in great surprise.
"How did you get that!?"
"Secret!" Ca.s.sie wink at him.
"Hey! Shouldn"t be like that! Where did you buy it? Isn"t there is no release date yet?"
"Yup! But a friend sent it to me!"
"And who is that?" Levi is curious to know. He also tried to get this book in advance, but his family"s power can"t influence the publisher which the author himself.
Then who"s a friend of Ca.s.sie that could able to get her a copy like just a piece of cake?
Levi still on his curiosity when Ca.s.sie went to the washroom. He stared at the book and tingle not to flip a few pages.
In the end, Levi picks up the book and checked out the synopsis and important author forewords and read the first pages.
He found the couple author"s signature on the last page of this book, and what took his attention is the message on the first page.
S. C. and who is this? Levi became more curious, however, he cannot be rude to ask her when she already said that it"s a secret. Levi put back the book on where Ca.s.sie left it.
Not that long, Levi left to go to his cla.s.s. "Ca.s.sie, I"ll come back after my cla.s.s is over." He said.

Ca.s.sie was busy replying to Joanna. Her best friend was crying because she didn"t bring her along. However, her flight is sudden and all her mind is only about her uncle"s condition.
Ca.s.sie is losing attention to her surroundings because Joanna doesn"t stop ranting until she b.u.mped into someone.
"Ouch, am sorry sir--" she is familiar with this scent. The same perfume she could smell from those coats.
"Ca.s.sandra?" The guy sounded so very surprised.
"Shun?" She also can"t believe it. After realizing this is real, she suddenly gets panic! She wanted to scream.
Ca.s.sie didn"t notice that Shun has a company who exchanges meaningful gazes at each other from the name she called Shun.
Quinn partly glances over his shoulder and clears his throat.
Mr. Son and Leeroy understood. They quickly turned around and march back toward the elevator, and left their boss alone.
"How? Why are you here?" Ca.s.sie asked.
"Uhm, my aunt was confined here," Quinn replied then he was amused staring at Ca.s.sandra"s red cheeks. She is blus.h.i.+ng.
"How about you?" Now Quinn asked back.
"Ah, my uncle and his whole family got into an accident and they were admitted here."
"I see. How"s the condition? I mean, your uncle"s family?"
"Oh, his wife and daughter are on the recovery process. But my uncle who was still in a coma. He was safe from danger but still not woken up." She stated sadly.
"Am sorry to hear that."
Silence pa.s.sed them, Quinn is trying to think what to ask next. Ugh, he"s a dupe being speechless now.
"By the way, would you mind to have some coffee?" He finally got an idea to invite her. How come his brain doesn"t work well? He sighed discreetly.
"That"s right! I owe you a coffee! So it"s my treat."
Ah, she was very beautiful, smiling like this brightly, it gives warmth straight to his heart.
Ca.s.sie and Quinn went to this hospital"s coffee shop and continued talking when Levi came back from his school. He decided to ditch his next cla.s.s.
He is thinking if he could confess to Ca.s.sandra. But, he had no idea how he could tell her about his feelings.
Levi texted Ca.s.sie to ask her where she is, and Ca.s.sie replied that she was in the coffee shop and so, he went straight there just to see how Ca.s.sie happily talked to someone he knew.
