**BEAUTY'S POV**
I didn't sleep well last night,apart from having these nightmares about my slim versionSometimes it's like I was a totally different person, like a supermodel.Maybe am just exaggerating this,and it can be because I think soo much of losing weight and all that feeling insecurity about my weightadded to it.Then I think of him,sir Bruno,did he really mean all those words ,he said to me lastnight,he was terribly drunk so it's possible he said that because he was drunk.I sighed deeply,then the alarm ranged for my midnight prayers,after saying the prayers,I tried not to be distracted,it's like my whole mind was occupied with him,fall asleep,it's no surprise to me that I dreamt of him.The next morning,I woke up earlier than usual,dressed for work,I put on my office wear,and my shoes got ready to go,picked up my phone from the table then my notifications pop up sounded in my phone,I checked"This week is our trip!"I snapped out suprised at how forgetful I we always have this trip once every year, this year we are invited by the best fashion company in Colombia, for collaboration also we will visit Paris for fashion tourI love their cultureI sighed, yesterday must have been the meeting but,I wasn't in that meetingam so dead,Ferd will kill meI quickly picked up my bag and rushed outwaved at cab ,the driver was on speed,he drove past me and reversedHe whined down the windowI leaned over "Hathaway (KHF) company please""You know the price"He replied and opened the car door"Sure thanks"I went in the car and shut the door ,he speed off I got to the company,sam time with BrunoHis

at meI faked a smile"Sure Bruno""Thanks"He replied and left"That's odd,he never ask anyone for help except maybe you,I will take my chances"She winked at me"Goodluck,he is not really my type,what's so special about him anyway,why you all crazy for him,am over him""Really?"she asked surprised"Ye...ah.."I scratched my ear, nervously"Oh I get it""What?""Nothing ...bae ...nothing"She glanced at me and shook her head,then left for Bruno's officeI sat down ,sighed deeply" everyone parked right?"Fred's assistant asked"Let's go"the head of each department chorusedThree lucky newbies,best looking though,were selected to join the tourHeading to enter our company's jetI looked at Bruno,he was taken pictures with the staffs ,and fan girlsI tried not to give him so much attention**BRUNO'S POV**I got into the jet,the only seat that's free was the one behind beauty,I was grateful but shouldn't make it obvious to herI asked someone I know will never seat near her"Kathy can you switch seats with me""Hello no"I smiled to myself and tried to seatBeauty dropped her handbag on the seat and stopped me"Emm sorry my friend will sit here"She objected with a slight frown on her faceI didn't say a word,I was admiring her face with that frown,she's adorable"Jessi!!"She called out"Yh baby I already got a seat,the pilot is dreamy,so I got to seat near him!!"Jessi never disappointsShe looked helpless,aww!!!, quietly carried her handbag from the seat"Gracias"I replied and sat downIt's like we vowed not to talk to eachother,even when I was tempted to ,I was glad she isn't winning over meIt's getting darkMost of our Co workers already doozing offI felt a hand tapped me,I turned and lookedIt's beauty,she fall asleep and mistakenly hit mw"Sorry"she replied sleepily"Don't touch me miss please""It wasn't intentional!"She snapped annoyed"I know just have to warn you, becareful next time, distance please"She slowly adjusted to the extreme using her palm as the pillowI almost chuckled out, seeing her nod like that, eachtime she would look around embarrassedShe adjusted herself on the seat and slept offAs soon as I get to know she's in it totallyI looked at her smiling unconditional"Come on here I can't let you sleep like that"I whispered and rested her head on my shoulder I pulled off my jacket and covered herI already promised myself to wake up first and get my jacket off her before she question me*******We arrive at ParisReally a big cityThe lady who invited usWas a fashion iconShe welcomed us at the airport"You have the most beautiful African models"She complimented"We are honoured"Ferd repliedWe walked behind himBeauty is really a sleepy head ,she's a definition of tired , others are excited about our arrival but she is so not impressedI caught up with her "Hey.."She ignored yawningJessi noticed and paid attention to what I was about to say "You paralyzed my arm last night you didn't even apologized,I warned you to adjust to the extreme""Which I did what exactly is your problem!!"She said it with both anger and sobsShe looked like she can stab meEveryone glanced at usI swallowed hard and lead the way, even I have no idea where am going to,others followed**JESSI'S POV**
Am missing something, something is definitely going on with these two,how ,when ,what can it be..,he was beauty's crush,did that crush get crushed?,well I will find out eventually,I just activated my detective moodwe got to her place,well I prefer the hotel ,She may be a fashionista but she got poor taste of houses,beauty adored the place,she looked totally impressed.You are welcome to my paradise""It's so beautiful"beauty complimented."Para what now?..I said in my mind"more like parasite"Please manage the rooms,two people per room,I have no idea you are coming in large number""We can actually lodge in a hotel"I suggested"Sure with your own money"Ferd replied sarcastically,I are her my brows and glare at him ,worst C.E.O ever.He turned to the lady"We appreciate your help"She smiled and left"I will be with you Jessi"I turned to me and smiledI faked a smile then went over to Bruno"Please let me be your roommate Bruno"I pleaded to Bruno, other girls joined her"Ladies behave,Bruno is coming with me"Kathy said boldly"Since all of you agreed to be with me,to avoid distractions,i think l should go with the person that don't what to be with me,right C.E.O?"Bruno stated calmlyI was disappointed"I think that's balanced,so the only person who isn't crazy about going with Bruno is beauty!"Fred replied"What!!"we chorusedWhy that devilish smile on Bruno's face"Excuse me!!"Beauty snapped absentmindedly in shock"You lucky girl"I replied sadly"You are the only one who don't want to be with Bruno"Fred's assistant cleared her"No don't mind me ,I am crazy about Bruno, please let me go with him"She ran to Bruno"See I want to be with him like others""Sorry it's final am not a child I can see you are pretending,and may will be roommate with me"I looked over to may,she seem comfortable with it,like what did you expect,Fred's toy,others selected their roomates ,at the end it was just me and Kathy left, before I could complain"No way!!,am going to the hotel!! and am paying"Kathy screamed out ."Now that's a big relief"I said out loud."We are here together so you have to do this with us, everyone can afford a hotel ,well except fatty and her friend,being roomates Isn't being friends, dismiss"Ferd instructedEveryone carried their luggages into their rooms obediently."Dismiss"I mimicked him, making a silly face at him."What are you?,village headmaster? mmmtcheww"Hey if you come in, lock the door and and make sure to shower!!"Kathy shouted from inside."Bitch there's going to be only one crazy lady in this room and I rule!!" I fired back,she's really irritating,I can't deal with her,I can't wait for this tour to end,I shook my head and looked back at beauty,She was standing in front of their room door, Bruno's in already our, room was opposite theirs.She looked helpless,I thought she should be happy about this,I mean this is a dream come true for most ladies,she turned to me and our eyes met,that stare reminded me of the look she always put on her face whenever she want to plead to me for a favour,maybe this time ,she wants money to lodge in a hotel.I quickly entered inside the room and slammed the door before she could utter a even word.**SHELL'S POV**That night was .... well let's one of the best nights of my life,my twin sister's finally happy and I'm happy that she's happy, we both happy its it's kinda the twin effect thing."Dinner is ready"Jessi annouced dishing out the food,Junior's always glued to her. It was suprising to me how they got that close within this short time."Well I don't think they need food this time around"i said and turned to the love birds couple and found them staring at eachother blinklessly.I rolled my eyes in aversion,the shouldn't be so childish, love does make people act weird,the gave me such an atrocious feeling."Why are you staring?"Beauty asked Bruno biting her lower lip seductively. "No,you are one staring"Bruno replied,he rubbed his thumb on her lips slowly ,staring at them,Beauty playfully bit on his finger. "Aw!""I wasn't staring,you are the one staring at me"She replied with a soft chuckle.Bruno pulled her close to him."Let me go!"Beauty snapped in a giggle. "How d
**BEAUTY'S POV**I said yes ofcourse but I couldn't even voice it out loud.I stood there smiling and crying same time those tears where not enough to express my happiness, it's all over,I have my Bruno back."Hey little Beano come over here"Jessi told junior who walked to them"High five good job son""You did great cutie!!"Shell carried up in his arms.Jessi and Shells cheered for him.We stood six feet apart still smiling at each other and frozen ,no one is making any move to take the first step and i was trying so hard to control my body that was intensively itching for his hug."You look beautiful as always"he flashed that his perfect smile,i missed it the most,it does things to me.I burst into tears and ran to hug him ,just as I get closer he hugged me so tightly,I felt so alive not wanting to ever let go."I missed you so much Bruno".I cried out in-between loud sobs."I thought you never did"he sa
**BEAUTY'S POV**Shell told me everything in details about Bruno and his present situation.I felt for him,I never thought it would be that hard for him to move on.I don't think I can face Bruno too after what happened between him and my twin Shell."It's all my fault,it didn't get to work like I planned,I actually messed up and went on bed with him,we kissed and..."Shell! don't say that infront of her"Jessi cautioned her in a low whisper."Am fine Jessi,I am just worried,I thought I was the one hurting the most ,but I was just being selfish and inconsiderate, I left Bruno all by himself,he never hurt me intentionally,he did everything he could to get back with me but I was dumb to realize that earlier, I wanted to love on so much that I ended up breaking him..also i couldn't face my feelings,instead I kept concealing it".I damped my dry face with my handkerchief."Beauty if you start crying, I will cry too,this isn't your mess only,I
** SHELL'S POV**"Are you still blaming yourself for that?it's been two years now,you have to stop being so hard on yourself"Jessi asked abruptly interrupting my deep thoughts."His family have no idea of his whereabouts,and I don't know how to get him back Jessi,i did it,imagine how much pain he must have been going through Jessi"j replied.Bruni left his home months ago without informing anyone about his destination, I felt really sad about the whole game ,but turned out I made things worse with my little game ,Jessi warmed me but i never listened."What am I am going to do Jessi,I want my sister and Bruno back together they deserve eachother you know..I have to find Bruno"Jessi sighed deeply."I think all he needs now is to get away from everyone,I don't blame him though he really tried fighting for Beano I feel for him,he loves Beauty for real what can we do?,he is gone and Beauty got another guy...emm Drew the thai guy"."We can still d
**BRUNO'S POV**When I got home my sister could tell, something happened,I got dressed and my hair trimmed up by my personal barberI got the best tuxedo and dash off to pick her from homeOnly on my way,I get to realize she didn't tell me her address,I stopped at an eatry,got soda and called Jessi"Alright I will send her number"I was glad ,it went smoothlyI thrust my hand in my pant pocket and got the ring box,smiling at itMy phone beepedJessi's text, hopefully it was Beauty's number ,as quick as a flash,i happily copied the number to my contacts.I dailed her number many times but she didn't answer,I don't think giving up is in my mind anymore,I kept trying and trying finally she picked up my call."Hello"She sounded different,I noticed the difference in her voice abit but ...who cares"Hello,baby...am sorry ,I am totally lost (laughs awkwardly), please I need address to pick you up"I said, embarrassed.
**JESSI'S POV**I got to the work the next day,I was the only one in the company by then but sir Bruno's car was parked outside, I looked over towards bruno's CEO office, it was locked ,I was about going to my department, when I saw him sleeping on beauty's desk.It's been years yet he still yearning for Beauty, I wonder if he will ever move on ,it's not easy but at this rate ,he need to stop punishing himself.I walked over to Beauty's post and tapped him gently on the shoulder. "Are you alright sir Bruno?"I asked calmly.He opened his eyes, yawned tiredly then he smiled back at me."It's my birthday today,I decided to sleepover here,since I decided not to go back home yesterday"."All by yourself"i asked,can't believe, he slept alone in this big company though am more concerned why ,he choosed to sleep here than at his place. "Oh I didn't sleep alone,Beauty was here too"he replied."Oooo...kkkk"I replied blankly thinking if he finally gone insane.Wait did he just said today i
