*RAPHAEL*
I woke up the next morning with a stomach ache.
I didn’t know if it was sothing I ate the previous day but I was in so much discomfort.
I slowly sat up.
I need so pain reliever of so sort.
Mona walked into the living room.
Should I ask her to get so?
No, she wouldn’t.
She was allergic to kindness.
“I’m gonna take a walk.”
“Alright.”
When the door closed, I pushed myself up.
I have to get so drugs.
Getting to the door, It opened and she walked in again.
“Are you okay?”
I nodded.
“You look pale.”
“My stomach hurts a lot...I was just going down to get so drugs....it’s no biggie.”
“You’re sweaty...you might faint before you get there.”
I grinned. “I have to...It’s not like I can ask you to help out or anything.” I drawled staring at her, hoping she would help out.
She sighed. “Fine. Go lie on the bed.”
“Yes, ma’am”
Maybe she might not be totally allergic to kindness.
***********************
I thought I would die before she ca back.
She took so long.
“Here.” Mona said throwing the drugs on the bed.
“They’re pain killers and you’re to eat before you take them.” She explained.
Eat?
When will the food arrive?
“I already ordered so food. It will be here any minute from now.”
The door bell went off.
She walked away and ca back with a tray of food.
“Here you go.”
“Thank you.” I said, gratefully.
I could only eat a little and then I took the drugs.
I winced as I rested my head on the pillow.
What the hell is wrong with my stomach?
Lucia sat on the bed.
“Have you had breakfast?” I asked.
She nodded.”How...how are you feeling?”
“Not good but I will okay before you know it.”
“Yeah, sure.” She let out, nonchalantly and walked off.

*MONALISA*
I really do not want to take care of a sick man and I was relieved at noon, when he woke up, he looked a whole lot better and he finished two plates of food.
“The day looks so good to go out, Mona.” He said, walking into the living room.
Seriously? This again?
Should he have just remained sick?
“No.”I snapped.
“C’mon, it’s not fun to go out alone.”
“I’m not interested in going out with you. I already did before. Wasn’t that enough? Can this honeymoon be over already? You’re so pesky.”
“I’m soone who loves having fun so let’s not see this as a honeymoon but a vacation...you know.” He shrugged.
“Still not interested.”
“C’mon, just see it as a vacation with .”
“A vacation with you sounds awful.”
“Fine, see it as a vacation with yourself.”
Abruptly, the two of us burst into laughter.
“Awwn...isn’t it forbidden for Iron Lady to laugh?”
I imdiately closed my mouth. “I wasn’t laughing.”
“You were just showing your teeth.”
I eyed him.
After lots of pestering, I agreed to go out with him again.

Enzo got a tour guide this ti because he wanted to go to different places.
First, we visited the much talked about Eiffel Tower.
“What would Paris be without its symbolic Eiffel Tower? Built by Gustave Eiffel to commorate the centenary of the French Revolution, it is presented at the Exposition Universelle in Paris in 1889. 324 ters high, it is one of the most visited monunts in the world with nearly 7 million visitors a year.
The first floor houses the Eiffel Tower which extends over two levels, 58 ters above the ground as its na suggests. On the second floor, the view is the best at 115 ters because you have a diving view on the ground below. Finally on the 3rd floor at 275 ters, you can see what the office of Gustave Eiffel was. For the more adventurous one, it is possible to use the stairs and climb the steps (1,665 to the summit).
The ascent of the Eiffel Tower is a must to enjoy the magnificent view of Paris.” The Tour guide, Landon explained.
I loved his explanation.
It was educating.
We indeed used the stairs and climbed the steps then from there, we watched the beautiful view of Paris.
It was so thrilling to the point that I didn’t want to get down from this place.
“You know there was a book I read once about how the main characters traveled to Paris and kissed at this Tower.”
“The two of you can totally do that too. It’s romantic.” Landon cooed.
I shot the both of them a death stare.
Landon whispered sothing to Enzo who laughed and said,
“Yeah, she isn’t used to kissing in public.”
“Enzo !”I hissed.
He turned around, laughing with Landon,
What the hell was funny?
Next, we visited the Notre Da Cathedral.
“One of the most enduring symbols of Paris: Notre da de Paris also known as Notre Da, a Roman Catholic cathedral is located on the eastern half of the Ile de la citè is widely considered one of the finest examples of French Gothic architecture in France and Europe. Begun in 1163 and completed in 1345, this cathedral is a sight with its portals surrounded by his many sculptures and gargoyles that adorn the roof.
We advise you to walk around the cathedral, then go inside and climb the 387 steps to the top of the towers. The climb to the top of the towers can be exhausting, but you will get a panoramic view of the region and see the famous gargoyles up close.” Landon explained as we walked around the cathedral.
The other place, we visited that I really enjoyed was the Louvre Museum.
“The Louvre is the most visited art museum in the world. Located in the heart of Paris, this historic building is a forr royal palace, with an area of 210,000 square ters including 60,600 for the exhibitions. The museum is housed in the Louvre, originally a fortress built in the late 12th century under Philip II. The remains of the fortress are visible in the basent of the museum.”
And then we saw different collections of Egyptian antiquities,Oriental antiquities, Greek, Etruscan and Roman, Islamic Art, Sculptures of the Middle Ages, Renaissance and Modern Tis, Objects of art, Paintings, Graphic arts.
We also visited the Champs Elysées / Arc of Triumph.
And lastly for that day, we had dinner on the cruise on the Seine.
*************
“I had a good ti showing you two around, I hope you enjoy the rest of your honeymoon.” Landon said to us, then he walked away.
“We can walk back to the resort, it isn’t far from here.” Enzo suggested.
I was going to object but seeing the how beautiful the night was, it was nice for a walk.
“Sure.” I agreed and started walking away but when I didn’t notice his footsteps, I turned around to see that he hadn’t moved an inch.
“Well, aren’t you coming?” I asked.
“It’s actually this way.”
I eyed him. “You could have at least brought that to my notice instead of keeping quiet.”
He snickered. “It was funny to watch.”
“I bet it was.” I snapped and started at the opposite direction.
