Bonjour! I'm in paris at the moment. It really is a beautiful as they say. I haven't really updated because I was just looking around the city and hanging out with some locals. People are so nice and polite here. Funny how most I've met know good english but back home most people only know basic French. Such a beautiful language.

So here's a the next chapter . Don't forget to review.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx❤

I found out about these things called banks where I could use money and save money. I want to save money and eventually if I work hard and give myself time I could save up for anything. At the moment I'm saving up for a phone so I can talk to Will. At first he was a little wary as to why I don't have phone and me being me made up some excuse of having one but dropping it, in the sink at work.

I should able to afford it, at the moment I'm getting payed $8 dollars per hour. Which is a reasonable amount of money for a beginner waiter. Since I work for 10 hours from 9 am to 7pm I get $80 dollars a day . And from then on i have college. I'm just learning how to manage my money and time but that should be accurate.

It's Saturday, now so I only have 2 hours of shifts during the day and Will's coming to get me so we could hang out. I walk into my room back at the motel. Looking around at the crumbling damp walls. I'd be freezing to death if it wasn't June. I've lived here for around a month, and it still looks the same. The bed is laid exactly as it was, as I sleep on the floor. There a no decorations of any kind. It's just well plain and simple. Now Like my life. However, a definite improvement is that I don't have a hater next door. You know the one that basically knocked my door down because I was shouting in my sleep the first day Icame here. I've come to know she is in fact a pretty brilliant person, she called Ebony has a 5 year old called Andrew. He's a cutie.

As I shuffled through my bag, there's a quite knock i put my cloths down turning to face the door "come in" I say. Ebony walks in holding Andrew by the arm she smiles at my weakly before sitting on the corner of the bed Andrew on the lap."Dea, i've got called to work. theres an emergency an since your the only one I trust and nick isn't up to it I was wondering if you could look after Andrew for a whole please."

I think about refusing, but when I look at her face I could see all the desperation struggle in her eyes matching my ones just a month or so ago. The black saggy circles under her eyes and her naturally bounces curls into a frizzy bush. Her caramel skin looked pasty, she could of been mistaken for a sick person. Nick wouldn't look after poor Andrew, he would beat him. Nick was a drunk druggy that Ebony got involved with aged only 16 and now 22 she just couldn't escape him.

I know what happens to them when I try to pry myself to sleep, all the arguments, glass smashing, child crying and I stay there laying in my bed just listening to the cusses coming out of nicks mouth as he hits Ebony and Andrew. To believe someone will do that to their own family.

"Yes, I don't mind though I have to go out soon. So he'll have to come with me" I say, I look at her once again " after work I'll look after Andrew as well so why don't you go to sleep on my bed. I doubt Nick will let you sleep"

She thanks me as she grabs her handbag and I give hr the spare keys to my motel. I turn looking at Andrew. "hello, Andrew " I smile grabbing both his hands , he doesn't say anything.

"Do you know who I am?" I ask

"Are you... Mums friend?" He replies snatching both his hands from me.

" okay Andrew, your going out with me and my friend" I say " can I hold your hand... please"

I head out the door holding Andrew by the hand as we wait for Wills car to pull up. "Who you waiting for" he asks.

"My friend Will"

"Is he your boyfriend ?" I laugh at that, not quite sure why.

"Umm, maybe" he was wasn't he? I mean he did kiss me.

"Does he hit you?"

I gasped shocked, why would he think that? He must think all boyfriends are like Nick." No, no he doesn't, Will's not like that okay, Will is very nice to me and he will be to you. Okay?"

"Okay"

After a few minutes of talking about casual stuff with Andrew like school. His friends, hobbies etc Will pulled up and we got in the car.

"Dea who is this?" Will looked at Andrew who looking at all the other children with there parents as we past the park .

"Oh, umm This is Andrew I'm looking after him for a friend. She got called to work" I explain.

" oh for a moment I thought he was your kid" Will replies looking relieved.

" why? What's wrong with him?" I asked getting a little defensive.

"Nothing, I just. Just nothing Dea"

"What?"

"I just don't want any other guy with you okay?" He said obviously avoiding my gaze. I laugh at him looking back at Andrew. I'm really find if him, he just too cute. With his dark brown hair and light golden caramel mixed raced skin shined in the sun. He was looking particularly cute today up with his kaki shorts and tee shirt.

"He's a nice kid. With a really abusive father" I spill to will trusting him this. This gets wills attention as he turns to me.

"Is it okay if he stays with us today" I continue.

"Oh you mean join our date. I can see you looking at him. You obviously like him better than me" he jokes .
