28 1+1+1

Yoko’s POV:

The team finally landed safely in the city of love and smile. We felt relax and well rested throughout the duration of our 13-hour flight. Thanks to the comfort that this luxurious and private aircraft offered.

After making sure that our team haven’t left anything we excitedly disembarked the plane and are looking forward to the events surrounding the Paris Fashion Week.

We need not worry about our luggages for we were assisted by the very welcoming cabin crew and some airport personnel.

Just when we thought that our team will be heading to a hotel reserved for us, P’Anne suddenly mentioned that we’ll be staying at the residential house located somewhere in the countryside which is owned by Miss Aashna herself. The property serves as their headquarters whenever they come to France to attend events like this.

Everybody went on a frenzy again upon hearing the good news. My other 3 GL friends started planning already on things we could do during our free time. P’Anne said that she could arrange for a mini get away vacation for us to enjoy some tourist spots and local delicacies in Paris.

“Mama Yokoooooo” I turned my head as soon as I heard little Rafa calling my name.

Yoko: “Rafaaa… come here give Mama Yooo a big big hug.” I crouched myself down to his level to properly give the young man an embrace.

Anntonia: “What took you so long?”

Mario: “You see, Anne there was this slick immigration officer who’s been flirting with our queen here.” Mario told the gang while pointing at Miss Aashna.

Rafa: “Oh yeah, yeah, yeah the lady was touchy touchy to my Mama. Rubbing her shoulders just like this.” Rafa showed us what he saw by rubbing his other shoulder and squeezing it lightly. Miss Aashna just glared at both Mario and Rafa while I could see Carlo, P’Anne and Michelle holding their laughter in.

Engfa: “Psst, next time Aashna let me tag along with you. I need some connections too you know for when I trav a₹%#₹+- … ow ow ouch … Charlotte.” Charlotte was pinching Engfa so hard while giving her a death glare.

Engfa: “Never mind,…. tsk…”

Anntonia: “Okay guys, please double check on all your hand carry baggages before we go. Now, you, you and you” P’Anne said while pointing at EngLot, FreenBecky and LingOrm “You’ll be in the vehicle with me, Michelle and Rafa.”

Faye/ Aashna: “What about me?”

Anntonia: “You take the other car, you drive it, go wherever you want to go and take Yoko with you.”

Faye/ Aashna & Yoko: “Whaaaat.”

Anntonia: “Go! I hate wasting time. See you when I see you both.”

Faye/ Aashna: “Can I take Rafa with me?”

Rafa: “No mama, I’m not in the mood to be with you today, I’m going with Daddy Wengfa and Mommy Cha and Mommy Freen and Mommy Beck and Mommy Ling and Mommy Orm.”

Engfa high-fived Rafa and said “Oohh, Savage! that’s right my boy Wadidi o waddap…. Yeah…”

All the girls are smirking at us, while I just kept my smile and amusement to myself. I think I know what these guys are doing and I’m enjoying every moment of it.

P’Anne throw the car key at Miss Aashna and she caught it effortlessly. Before making our way to our assigned vehicle, Miss Aashna suddenly blurted out:

Faye/ Aashna “Hey Anne, je vais me venger un de ces jours.” (“Hey Anne I'll get my revenge one of these days.”)

Anntonia: “Tu peux embrasser ma femme de cul.”(You can kiss my ass wifey”), P’Anne said while sticking her tongue out.

Miss Aashna was blubbering something to herself. I couldn’t make up the words that she was murmuring to herself.

The IDF team will be on a convoy in three different vehicles. I could see two luxury mini bus and a black Ferrari. I could tell it’s a Ferrari from the logo itself. It has four doors and four seats as well, with a powerful yet sophisticated look.

Miss Aashna guided me to the car and while doing so, I could feel her palm slightly touching my lower back. I purposely slowed down my phase just to savor the moment to feel the contact.

She opened the passenger door for me and assisted me to be seated in a shotgun position. Moments later, the door to the driver’s side slowly opened and Miss Aashna occupied the vacant seat next to me.

I could immediately get a whiff of my P’Mali’s scent the moment I felt Miss Aashna’s close proxomity. I never, even in a million years will be mistaken of that particular scent. But then again I didn’t bother asking Miss Aashna about it for I know that personal matters are off limits.

The 3-vehicle convoy, lead by the two  luxurious mini bus and then us trailing behind started moving ahead to make our way to the said estate.

We silently cruised the busy roads of Paris while I was leisurely taking in the picturesque view of the city while slowly disappearing into the serene and peaceful atmosphere of the country side.

After an hour of spending time on the road, the team finally arrived at this particular French provincial house which is undeniably huge and stately.

The three-storey property was characterized by a steeply pitched and hipped roofs, doors and windows with curved arching tops and symmetry in windows and chimneys while the exterior finishes in brick and stone.

I took my time in appreciating the impressively grand and costly mansion in front of us. Everybody got out of the vehicle and was in awe of the sight in front our very eyes.

Several butlers were already standing outside the property waiting for our arrival and guided us to the inside of the mansion. Once inside, it speaks volumes of how costly everything is. With multiple living spaces, luxurious amenities such as spa, wine cellars, gathering halls. Each area designed to exude luxury, from the grand entrance hall to the vast of the gardens.

Food were also served in the stomping ground with complete table arrangement and full course meal plus desert and several beverages.

We were all gathered around the area and P’Anne made some announcement: “Okay guys, feel to dig in to regain some energy. We have a meeting this evening with several fashion editors and I want you to get ready for that. Just wear some casual clothes. Oh and for our room assignments, listen carefully okay, each room has a number hanging on the door. We put numbers on the room since this property is sometimes used for photoshoots, movie shoots and even the garden as a fashion runway venue: Okay so Engfa and Charlotte room 221, Ling and Orm room 222, Freen and Becky room 223 and Aashna and Yoko will be assigned in room 224. All the other staff and crew you can follow both Mario and Carlo for the remaining room assignments.”

Miss Aashna was just staring blankly at P’Anne, then she suddenly blurted out “Anntoniaaaa, why me and Yoko and … and Why! What about my room? she asked P’Anne in a childlike voice with a pouty face.

Anntonia: “Mich and I will be using it.”

Faye/ Aashna: “But this is my house… why can’t I have my own room with Rafa.?” P’Anne just raised her eyebrows while giving Miss Aashna a smirk.

Faye/ Aashna: “Okay whatever, but Rafa is sleeping with us.”

Freen: “So you mean you two are gonna sleep together?”

Faye/ Aashna: “Yes, of course.” Everybody gawked at her answer with their mouth wide open.

Orm: “Weeeee, Rafa’s gonna have a sibling.”

Charlotte: “My headset comes in handy tonight.”

Anntonia: “Don’t worry all the rooms are soundproof.”

Freen: “REALLYYY!”, Becky elbowed Freen right away.

Freen: “Ouch!” Miss Aashna seemed oblivious of the “sleeping thing” that the group is talking about. After buffering for a few minutes, she finally got the hint and I swear to all the strawberries and rameon in this world that I saw a small shade of pinkish red color on her check. Oh my Gaaad! Miss Aashna is blushing, so cute.

Faye/ Aashna: “Guys, guys, no! Not like that! I mean, at night you sleep right, you wear your PJs lay on your comfy bed and close your eyes to sleep, to be rested and get energized in the morning.”

Ling: “Orm wears her lingerie at night.” Everybody just smirked at Orm and smiled at her teasingly.

Anntonia: “Okay guys, I’ll leave you here. Mich and I have a meeting to attend to. Anyway, Mario and Carlo will be here to assist you.”

Everybody bid P’Anne their goodbye and proceeded in filing our stomach with the very much needed meal.

Before P’Anne could step out of the mansion she shouted and reminded Miss Aashna again…

“Remember Aashna room 2-2-4 !!!”
