Afterward love

~Chapter 5

~ Odette's POV

For the next couple of weeks,  I would get up at 4'o clock in the morning  and go and start cleaning the Opéra without Félicie. I would finish cleaning near  8'o clock am. When I go back to the Attic, Félicie would just be waking up or eating her breakfast. After Félicie gets dress, she would head downstairs to get to her ballet classes and I would finish cleaning the Attic. Near noon, I would change into clean clothes and redo my hair. After, I finish that I would go downstairs and out of the Opéra to meet Conner. Conner and I would take walks to the park, the Eiffel Tower, to cafés, or we just sit in the Attic and talk. But today would be different.

———————————

It's Monday but this Monday is different. Tonight I'm going out to dinner with Conner but that wasn't the only thing different tonight. I just wish I had a warning about what was to come.

———————————

I woke up to the sound of birds chirping. I sat up and looked over to the time, it was 7'o clock am. I looked over to the other side of the room to see Félicie sound asleep, I smiled at her as she peacefully sleeps. I got out of  my bed and got dressed for the day. I then started to cook breakfast for Félicie and me. By the time I put the food on plates, Félicie was just waking up. When Félicie saw me she had a questioning look on her face. She sat down at the table and started to eat with me but it wasn't long before she started to question me.

"Odette, what are you doing back so early?" Félicie finally asked.

"What do you mean?" I replied while trying to keep a straight face.

"You know..."

"No, I don't"

"Ugh... Fine"

"..."

"What are you doing back so soon from cleaning?"

"Félicie, please think about the answer"

"All I know is you having dinner with Conner, tonight and I don't have ballet classes today"

"Think a little harder"

" Well, when I don't have Ballet classes I would usually ... OH"

"Chop, Chop... get ready for the day, we have a lot of cleaning to do today"

Félicie groaned as she got up from the chair and started to get dress. I couldn't help but chuckle at her reaction to cleaning. We headed downstairs at 9'o clock. We finished cleaning at 3'o clock. As soon as we entered the attic, Félicie plopped onto her bed. 

———————————

I redid my hair and change into clean clothes. After, I did that I said goodbye to Félicie and headed downstairs to meet Conner. Conner and I walked 10 minutes to the restaurant. I do wish I had a warning of what to come because of this. If I had known I might have changed my actions just a little. Or even begin to prepare.

———————————

Conner and I entered the restaurant, the first thing I saw was that it was right next to the park. It was a simple restaurant but it isn't a restaurant to bring children into. As we sat down on the outside part of the restaurant, the Waiter brought us a menu and pour us glasses of water. Maybe 5 minutes later the waiter took our orders and then left us.

"Odie, please relax a bit you're freaking me out"

"Oh sorry," I said as I noticed I was a tensed.
