"Gregory, get ready fast! Robert will be here any minute." I shout at my brother so he puts on a T shirt fast.
He's always shirtless. Nelson, is the responsible big brother so he's already ready.
Robert told he'll take us to the louvre museum today.
"Robert, this is Gregory and Nelson and brothers, this is Robert." I introduce each other.
"Nice to meet you, Robert!" Nelson shakes hands with him.
"Hey buddy!" Gregory does a man shake with Robert.
"Okay, let's get going. We have to take the bus to the museum."
We wave bye to aunt Mel and follow Robert.
Nelson and Gregory walk in front of
Robert and me.There a lot of tourists in the museum and the guides take a bunch of people to show them around explaining each item.
"So, you visit here often?" I ask Robert.
He seems extremely hot today in his V-neck grey T shirt and black jeans. His hair is a little messed and his skin tone is perfect. Even the Greek gods have lost against him.
I guess I was staring at him because he shakes me.
"Earth to Lisa! " he calls out and I widen my eyes in shock. Hope he didn't notice me checking him out.
"Yes, I come here every summer" he says and walks past me. Our shoulders brush against each other and the skin to skin contact freezes me in my spot.
"Lisa, seems like you're falling hard." Gregory whispers in my ears.
I push him away and he starts laughing like a maniac and the people around us stare at us. I ignore him and continue to see the exhibits.

"Where do you guys want to have lunch?" Robert asks us outside the louvre museum.
"Is there any KFC or MC'D nearby?" Gregory asks as he scans the map in his hand.
"Well, there's a KFC in Les Halles nearby."
"Okay! Done!" Nelson agrees and we follow Robert.
Nelson and Gregory are behind us.
Robert is very quiet today and I don't talk much either.
We order our burgers and sit down.
"So Robert! You're an artist?" Nelson breaks the silence. Gregory is too busy texting some girl who he must have picked up somewhere.
"Yes, ever since 10" he says and we lock eyes for a second and I look at my brother avoiding his stare.
"So where have you applied?" That question from Nelson surprises him.
"I have applied to a few colleges in London." Robert doesn't say much than that.
He's been awfully quiet and I wonder why.
