Kylian made a brilliant comeback from his injury tonight, it was like if he never had any. PSG flogged Nice Fc 7-2 with Kylian netting five goals solidifying his team’s position at the top of the league’s stat. I could not stop myself from smiling as I remembered how well he played tonight as Isa did my make-up in preparation for his visit. I am so proud of him

With my make-up done and every beauty routine ticked off, I went down the stairs and went straight to the dining room with Isa and I was received with a bright smile and a standing ovation

“You look so beautiful, Mi amor” Maria complimented 

“English please” I corrected her even though I knew what mi amor meant

“You look beautiful, my love”

“Kylian won’t know what hits him when he sees you” Jude commented and I chuckled. 

Alice came into the kitchen, looked at me from the hair on my head to my feet and looked away. I rolled my eyes at her actions, I never expected her to compliment me in the first place

“Please, can we eat now?” Alice asked opening the cooler to check the food

“I was hoping we will eat with Kylian since it is his first day here with us” I said

“We don’t know when he will be here?” Alice retorted with a narrowed eyes

“The match ended already, I am sure he is on his way here already” I stated 

“Fine” She groaned and left. 

I sat down in the dining with the rest of house except for Alice chatting about everything. But at some point, my mind was no longer in the discussion as I watch the clock move from 11pm to 12am, then 1am and still no sign of Kylian. At one point, Alice came out of her room and had some junk food, then the rest of the house followed suit except for me. My husband is coming home for the first time since we married, I will like to eat with him. 

He is coming, he made me a promise, so I am going to trust him and wait. Maria has reheated the food for two times now and when she moved to heat the food for the third time, I stopped her.

“Don’t, it will lose it taste” I addressed her

“I know but what choice do I have, Kylian hates cold food” she replied. Then I let her go.

Isa and Esaia were fast asleep in the living room while Jude already entered his room, telling his wife to call for him when Kylian comes home. Only Maria sat with me at the table and at exactly 2.54am, Alice came out again

“Do you mind calling Kylian and ask for what the hold off is” Maria bellowed in a loud voice

“I just did, not him at least. Melissa called” She said. I looked at Alice and I saw the smirk at the edge of lips. 

Kylian is not coming anymore

“He is not coming, is he?” I whispered hoping that my instinct was wrong

“No, he is not” She announced “He was called in for a meeting with the French team’s coach.”

“Oh” I said with dejection

“Then why did he not call earlier to tell us about it.” Maria complained on my behalf because I lost my voice at the disappointing news I just heard

“He thought he was going to make it but unfortunately, he could not. At the moment, he is still in the meeting” She muttered with indifference and left

“I am so sorry, Bewa, I know you were looking forward to his visit” Maria consoled me

“Why are you sorry? This is not your fault” I retorted.
