Heavenly Paradise Chapter #1 Clearing the sky

The streets were crowded. Voices could be heard everywhere and the lights in that cold night where shinning so brightly they seemed like stars in the sky.

A good-looking woman walked along the street like a model. Her hair was light brown, it gently moved as she walked her eyes were honey-colored, expressing confidence in herself and self appreciation.

She was white tanned and slim, gorgeous lady she was indeed.

Wearing colorful clothes she directed herself to an unknown place…

In the middle of a labyrinth of alleys that hide behind a great street, there was an access to a basement. That place with brilliant pink-colored walls smelled always like a mix of various perfumes. It could be heard from the outside, old songs and rock music playing.

The woman looked at the stairs that ended in a blue-colored door. She looked at it for a while and smiled. Her steps couldn't be heard because of the noise inside. She knocked on the door once…twice but no one answered.

Gently pushing the door she stepped inside and closed it behind her. Various voices could be heard, it seemed like they were celebrating something.

"Caroline! I'm so glad you accepted!!" ……………." Well…thank you Miwako" "Let's celebrate, Arashii, take the glasses out"……"Me?! Don't boss me around George!"…..Laughs

The mysterious woman behind the wall smiled and walked forward.

"My, you sound as cheerful as always my friends" …………………………..

Everybody turned around and watched her. Everything turned silent except for the loud music.

"Juliette..." A pink-colored-haired girl spoke with a surprised face.

"Miwako, you've sure grown prettier my dear"

Miwako looked at her and ran as she hugged her as well. "JULIETTE!!"

The woman hugged her and smiled, then turned to the others.



"Who is she?" A black-haired woman spoke. A woman Juliette didn't know…… "Her name is Chidori Urie" A man with a lot of piercings said.

"That's right, I'm back" Urie spoke.

"Urie? But Miwako"…She was interrupted by a weird 'woman'.

"Yukari, Miwako calls you Caroline right? Well, she calls her Juliette. Everybody does"….

Juliette stepped forward and walked directly to a good looking man that hadn't spoken. "Greetings George" Then she smiled at him and turned to the black-haired woman.

"My name is Chidori Urie but I prefer being called Juliette. May I ask who are you?" She spoke. The black-haired woman swallowed and slightly smiled. "I'm Hayasaka Yukari nice to meet you"

Juliette smiled "Miwako calls you Caroline right? Can I call you the same way?" Yukari nodded faintly.

"Why are you here?" …Juliette turned to George...the good looking man.

"George, did you think I would stay there and do nothing? I'm here because I want to, is that a problem? I could go back If you want" Juliette said smirking.

Arashii, the pierced guy smiled "Tough as always huh?"

"It's been a while since we saw each other right? My business in America is not done but I came to pay a visit. I don't know if I'm going to stay a lot of time or just a pinch" She smiled as she left her purse in a near chair.

"This is a reason to celebrate. Another reason" George spoke "You're here with us, something nobody expected so let's drink for this pleasure"

Yukari looked at George that was just beside her, he looked kinda excited and sad. She could tell this 'Juliette' was someone important to them.

Isabella, the 'woman' with weird dress put some Champaign in the table "let's celebrate"

Everybody was sitting in the table and food was on it, Juliette was laughing at Miwako's stories, everything turned around. First they were celebrating that Yukari had entered Parakiss as a new model and now it was this woman´s arrival.

"May I ask about you Juliette-san?" Yukari said with respect towards her.

Juliette turned to her and smiled "Yes, it seems everybody has been carried away with the situation and you still don't know who I am" She looked at George for a moment and George looked at her as well...



Juliette closed her eyes and sighed "I'm a friend that went to live to N.Y many years ago"

Yukari looked at Isabella. "Yes, Juliette has been a friend since I can remember. And because of some circumstances she had to go to live to America" Isabella said complementing the conversation.

"And it's quite a pleasure to have her back" George finished.

Yukari turned to Juliette again and smiled "I see." Miwako smiled like a little girl "She's also very good at making dresses, sewing and everything! She went to N.Y to improve her studies and now I bet she's a top designer!"

Juliette laughed "Well, I improved my skills and I'm not a top designer...YET. I'm working for a top designers mark in New York."

"Whoa, so you're almost in your goal huh?" Arashii said surprised.

"Yes"

They ate and drank all night, loud music and laughs could be heard from outside. Hours passed and when Yukari drank enough she fainted and went to sleep.

"My laughs how troublesome" Juliette said when only Miwako and George were left.

"Well, she doesn't drink much often" Miwako said yawning. "Where are you staying?"

"In a hotel near downtown"

"Oh, ok. I'll go and visit you tomorrow. What's the name of the hotel?" Miwako said taking out a sheet of paper and a pen.

"Royal Palace, I know you know which it is" Juliette smiled.

"Whoa! Such an elegant place!" Miwako smiled "I'll be going now, see ya!"

While Yukari slept and the clock ticked countless times silence was present within the pink-colored walls.

"Juliette"…

She turned around and looked at George that was inches from her.

"George, you look disturbed with my presence since I arrived. Should I come back when you're out?"

A pair of strong arms enveloped her and she stared at the ceiling surprised. "I didn't think you'd come back"

Juliette pushed him and looked straight at his eyes. "I'm not here because I wanted to see you badly; I'm here to visit my friends...not my ex-boyfriend"



George smiled "Will I see you tomorrow?" ………"Probably" Juliette walked out from the place and her steps could be heard from the inside. Now that she's back...I wonder what is going to happen. George thought constantly.

Juliette walked to the corner of the street and waited for a cab. It was late now. So late……

SO LATE TO GO BACK
