A month later.

Cairo's POV

"Crazy how it's only been one year since we've last seen Cairo Renee." said one reporter.

"Right never noticed how much the world had missed her." Another reporter said.

I'm currently watching my red carpet look at this event I had attended in London a few days ago. Now I'm in Paris because I got invited to do a campaign shoot for Balmain. Since the little yacht trip, I've been getting back to work slowly. No, I haven't been dancing and don't think I will get back to that anytime soon. Lately, I've been asked to attend events, do photoshoots for big-name brands, and campaigns. I have really put my focus on speaking up about toxic relationships due to my past.

"Yes babe I'm excited to see you too," Kitanna said to her boyfriend on facetime.

I completely blocked out the rest of their conversations cause it has nothing to do with me. As I continued watching more videos on my Macbook.

"Cai do you have any plans today?" Kitanna asked. I didn't even notice she had hung up on Gil.

"I have a fitting with Balmain in a few hours," I told her.

"Crazy how you are walking the Balmain show." Kitanna. "I'm excited for you."

"I'm excited too kinda shocked that they asked me to walk." I said truthfully.

"Girl everyone looks at you like a hero." Kit said.

I sighed "Not everyone. I just feel like I'm getting all these deals and shit because of pitty."

"And so what girl at least you still making money." Kit scoffed which made me give her a look.

"That's not the point." I said not wanting to continue this conversation.

"Gil is going to be in Paris." She said.

I mentally rolled my eyes because I knew that Neymar is also going to be in Paris as well.

"I just wanted to let you know because I'm going to be with him till he leaves." Kitanna said.

"Okay." I said not really caring.

Kit sighed knowing why I was giving her a bland answer.

"Have y'all talked since?" She asked.

"Nah no need to he said what he needed to say. There's nothing left between us." I said.

Since the yacht trip, I've been thinking a lot about Neymar and me. I'm still very much so in love with him. And everything he said that night really hurt me too. I didn't realize how much I had hurt him when I left. I thought I was doing him a service by pushing him away from my messed-up life.

Flashback

"There's a time a place for everything." Neymar said. "And right now isn't the time."

"It's been a year I think now is the perfect time for us to have this conversation." I said.

He laughed shaking his head. Then looked straight into my eyes.

"I am not working on your time." He said slowly.

"If you have such a problem with me why did not tell your friends and sister to not invite me here," I asked honestly confused.

Earlier he was all goofy and shit now he's upset. Maybe my arguing with Bruna triggered the emotions he's been holding in.

"At first I wanted to be around maybe even talk to you about how your life has been. But what you said to Bruna and bringing me into it made me realize. It made me realize the hurt I've never dealt with because I couldn't talk to anyone about." Neymar explained.
