GRENADE

excuse

Camélia hadn't been in top form over the last few days, and even Achille had noticed a change in her mum's behaviour. She seemed sadder, more pensive...

"Mummy, is everything all right ?" he finally asked, raising his head from her lap.

"Yes, darling, everything's fine. Why are you asking this question ?" she replied, stroking his hair with a smile on her lips.

"Are you sure ? You look very sad these times" he said worriedly as he sat down next to her.

"Oh, you think so ? I think I'm just homesick".

achille didn't look very convinced because she had just told him, he frowned before resting his head on her shoulder

"Look, we're going to Korea soon, we'll be able to go home again, isn't that great ?" she added to reassure him, but the little boy remained doubtful.

"and kylian ? is he coming to korea with us?" he asked, feeling his mother's heart beating a little faster.

'with us' these two words hurt camélia deeply

"I don't really know, you know he's been very busy lately"

"is that why we haven't seen him this week ?" he asked sadly, he had become very attached to the paris saint germain footballer and had found it a shame not to have seen him these days because he wanted to enjoy being with him as much as possible

"Yes, that's why, he's a footballer and doesn't really have time for us" she declared with a certain bitterness in her mouth while trying to keep her smile.

"oh that's sucks... i really like him"

It broke Camélia's heart to see that her son had become attached to such an ungrateful person. She would never have judged him like that, kylian had never made a single false move, he had always been polite, kind, adorable, gentle, he had all the qualities that made Camélia perfect. but obviously she had been sorely mistaken about him.

She hadn't said anything to Joshua yet, or even to her friends, whether it was Primavera, Persephone or Calliope, she'd kept everything to herself. Camélia preferred to take a little time for herself before telling them with propriety that they'd decided to call it quits.
But what bothered the young woman the most was that she didn't understand why he had decided to do this overnight.

He said she'd used him but she didn't understand the meaning of his sentence or when she'd done it. Her heart was broken into a million pieces, she had fallen in love with him, she loved him very much, and still loved him because unfortunately feelings don't go away so easily.

"are we still going to prim and aurel's party mum ?"

"yes why ?"

"so cool, does that mean uncle will be there too ?"

"yes, joshua will be there don't worry my angel" she replied, kissing his forehead. 

it took little or nothing to convince primavera to invite joshua, on the contrary she was delighted that such a high quality guest could come to her party. Camélia had taken care to explain to her what had happened with the article written by Dispatch, and Primavera had obviously agreed to help her because it seemed logical for her to help her friend.
especially as it was strange to say that joshua and camélia were a couple when in reality they were brother and sister.

"that means kylian will be there too !" the little boy expressed himself with joy, and camélia hadn't realized it yet.

lia :
can we do that in korea ?
like not at prim and aurel's party ?

shua :
is that bothering you ? 

lia :
i feel like im using them 
idk 
it's pretty weird

shua :
oh...
yes sure 
i understand 

lia : 
thanks bro 

shua :
so do you want me
to come or not ? 

lia :
at aurel and prim's party ? 

shua :
yes

lia :
idk ... 
i don't even know if i'm going to go,
it could be exhausting for achille
since we'll be going back to korea soon.

shua : 
is something wrong ?
you should go lia,
prim is after all achille's godmother
and one of your closest friends 
she'd be disappointed
not to be able to see you
a last time before going home

lia : 
ughhh
i know
i love prim and aurel
but im not in the mood 
i just wanna go home with achille 
and enjoy the last days of my holidays
with him 

shua :
I'll come with you
and we'll enjoy this last
evening together with your friends,
and then you can finally
introduce me properly to kylian,
I'd love to get to know the man
who managed to make
my beloved little sister fall in love.

lia :
yeah... sure
but what about the media stuff 
this incest business between us
is starting to bother me
like doesn't it seem a little obvious
that we're brother and sister ?
We have the same last name,
we have the same Korean origins,
we're Americans,
I don't understand how we can be so wrong.

shua :
LMAOOO
INCEST BUSINESS
but i totally agree with you
the guys also find this weird
they advised me to deal with
it as soon as possible,
i think i'll make an announcement
on my insta profile,
so i won't have to use
primavera and aurélien's party,
especially as it would be inappropriate,
you're right. 

lia :
great. 
I guess I'll see you at the party then ?

shua :
yes sure
love you <3

lia :
love you too <3
