"A dead body of a young woman was found in the Cecil Hotel, today at 1:09 pm. The police is still investigating the case as this is not the first time an event such as this has taken place in Deauville. Our reporter Claude is at the murder site right now, Claude please tell us about the recent developments of this case....." the news was being aired on a Philips tube TV and was being watched by a pregnant woman in her early 30s as she sat on a worn out recliner in a shabby dark lit room.

Faint voices of a girl reciting a poem could be heard from not too far away. In a room with ajarred door on the left side of a pitch black corridor, were 3 young girls sitting on their beds. One was around the age of 20 while the other two were 10 year old twins. "There once was a ship that put to sea. The name of the ship was the Billy of Tea. The winds blew up, her bow dipped down, Oh blow, my bully boys, blow...." the eldest recited.

A ding dong of the bell was heard when the two little girls rushed to the door and greeted their dad with a warm hug while their dad presented them with two loaves of pain poilâne.

The family happily sat together in the small living room and enjoyed the bread.

Around midnight, a young man was walking in the moonlit streets of Deauville, alone, soaked wet due to the pouring rainwater. He then picked up his ringing phone.

"Hello? Am I talking to Jungkook?" A male voice from the other side of the phone said.

"I've told you, Claude, stop calling me that, it's JK" the young man replied.

"Yeah ok. Listen I just got free from work, wanna hang out?" Claude asked.

"I can't make it today, I got a lot on my hands right now, sorry man" JK explained.

"Come on it's just for a few hours! I'm bringing my friend from work too, she's really hot, you don't wanna miss out, seriously" Claude tried to plead.

"Okay...meet me at the club then I'll be a little late though, have to take a shower" JK chuckled and hung up the phone.

Both the guys met at the local bar in the city by the lake, it was small and not too crowded as it was a workday night. "Hey man, you're 2 hours late! What were you doing?" Claude asked his friend. "Nothing dude, don't worry about it" JK tried to change the subject, "Why don't you introduce me to your friend first?" he playfully held out his hand in front of the woman as a gesture to shake hands.

"Bonjour, Je m'appelle Ines" the girl excitedly introduced herself while shaking his hand.
"Bonjour Ines, I'm JK."
"Does she know how to speak English?" JK asked Claude.
"Yeah I zdo know howu tu buzt I'm not very goud azt eet" Ines said.
"Oh that's fine, Ines please let me buy you a drink" JK politely held her hand and took her to the counter while Claude followed.

JK never had a serious relationship with anyone, it's not like he didn't try to but they always ended in an unfortunate way, still, he was always up for a new experience as he was a total extrovert, and meeting new people was his hobby.

"So JK tell mee, how is work nowdaiz?" Ines asked JK after he placed the order for the drinks. "Oh come on Ines don't ask him that, he's always invested in his work too much, this is his escape from it." Claude told Ines.
