Owning a Real Estate Agency was hard work. But having a child too, with no second parental support was harder. Valentina Russi was a Monegasque with a five year old child Eloise. Although she was a good kid, she was sometimes still a pain in the arse. Like this morning she had to go to school and Valentina was already running late to work and Eloise was refusing to get changed. Took an extra thirty minutes to get out of the house today. Making Eloise late to school and Valentina late to work. Neither could she walk their dog Coco, a German Shepard.

Because she was late it resulted in her not having enough time to get her morning coffee- the only reason she makes it through the first two hours of work- out of a local coffee shop run by this old married couple. They were the cutest. The woman, Lisa, was always telling her husband, Matteo, off for being his weird usual self. It was always a pleasure talking to them. Since all of her family had moved out of Monaco she never really spoke to anyone besides them. She still has close contact with her family but didn't speak to them loads.

Her parents passed away in a fire when she was only six years old. She has little memory of them but her foster parents were close with her biological parents and she has a little book of pictures her foster parents made. Their names are Juliette and Michael. And she usually calls them Mama Julie and Papa Mike. She called her parents Mama and Papa so she wasn't taking away their title as parents. Anyway, Julie and Mike has now moved away to Portugal, Algarve where they live with their cats and dogs happily in a cliff house.

She is also close with her foster parents family. You see, they aren't from Monaco but are from a place called Menton not too far off Monaco. She regularly sees them with Eloise. They all adore her to bits and would do anything to keep her. Her biological family however, live all over the world. Her closest family live in Nice a major city next to Monaco. Some live in Australia, Austria, UK, The Netherlands and so on. They all split after the death of her parents and everywhere they looked, in Monaco, reminded them of her parents.

She does have a couple of friends though. Her closest being Genevieve who she met in Nursery and have been friends ever since. Then she has friends in the work place too. And then some she met at the coffee shop too.

Anyway, life for her was good. She had a good job doing what she loved, a nice apartment, good salary, a daughter and dog who she loves with all her heart. Except a dickhead of an ex. Eloise's dad. Gabriel. The guy who slept with about ten people while still in a relationship with Valentina. Just hearing his name and about him made her blood boil.

Her nursery does this 'Bring your dad to school day' and 'Bring your mum to school day'. Which she and some other parents think that it is so stupid. Valentina goes in for the mum one but for the dad one she doesn't go to work and Eloise stays of school. They would travel down to Menton to see family for an hour or so. Then go too Nice to see some family and do a bit of shopping. Then back in Monaco they would go to Lisa and Matteo, sit there for a bit have a cake and coffee- hot chocolate for Eloise. Go to a shop near them. Buy loads of snacks like: crisps, ice cream, chocolate, sweets, Coke, Sprite and so on. Then Valentina would cook a very nice dinner. After eating they get changed into nice and comfy pyjamas and then they would eat snacks and watch a movie together. Waking up snuggled together on the couch. This falls around late May so she is alright for a bit.

It was currently lunch for her so she went into the cafe place in her work building for some food. She went down her elevator and greeted a couple of people who were working in their offices. Her office was modern. There was no other way of putting it. Sure it didn't have robots and all them stuff in it. But it wasn't old fashioned if that made sense. Valentina wanted her place to be a comfortable place for everyone who worked there. And she hasn't received a complaint in her 3 years of her business.
