As the week passed by like a blur. My grandma told me that she had gotten sick with cancer. And she had a couple of months left. I insisted to let me stay with her, but she told me that I had to respect her wishes.

Now I was getting ready to go to New Orlins I had to stay there for one week.

-Honey you will need 5 dresses with you, there will even be a masquerade ball, this will be the first one.

-Well okay.

-Now honey lets pick your dresses.

-Okay grandma.

After 6 hours of choosing the dresses I was finally ready to have some time to rest.

It was Monday morning when I got up and I had to leave my grandma for the week.

-Grandma are you sure, you want me to go? It will be better if I stayed with you here.

-Oh honey I have more than 30 years that I have attended that ball, and it is only fair that my niece goes there. Plus there is when I met your grandfather, Marco a love with the first sight. Ohh how much memories we had together.

-Ohh grandma I have told you before that you and grandpa had the love story of a movie.

-And I have told you that you will lose you flight, now off you go.

-Okay grandma love you, bye Alice please don't leave her out of your sight and call me if anything happens.

-Sure piccola don't worry, have fun.

My driver name was Albert, he drived me to the airplane and to my guess I was first class. 

-Miss we arrived, have a safe flight.

-Thank you Albert, see you after one week.

-Bye miss.

I entered the airplane and fond my sit. After one hour of flight a black guy, with nice body, and a mesmerizing smile sat n front at me and said.

-Hello I don't know you, Im Marcel Gerard. 

-Hi I am Caroline Frubish.

-Nice to meet you Caroline.

With that we started our conversation and I fond out that Marcel lived in New Orlins, he was going to host the balls this year.

-So have you decided when you are going t stay Caroline?

-Yeah in fact I have.

-Ohh you came prepared, but would you like to give you a tour guide of the city, im the best man for this job.

-I am sure that you are, but I 

-Wait are you going to refuse me right now?

-Well I was just about to do that.

-Ouch that came harsh Caroline.

He putted his hand on his chest and acted like he was hurt. But at the end gave me a friendly smile.

-Yeah life has it ups and downs.

-Well we discovered our down what is the up?

-The up that you met me and that I have to leave now. We arrived.

-That's a bummer Caroline, but we will see each other soon.

-Goodbye Marcel.

With that I left him smiling and drinking. When I got off the plane a car was waiting for me.

-Hi miss, my name is Ric and I will be your shofar for this week.

-Hi Ric I am Caroline nice to meet you. Can you please take me to Grimaldi Hotel.

-Yes miss.

As Ric was driving I saw the city at the most full bloom, if you wanted a place to be accepted is here in New Orlins. You could see painters painting, dancers dancing, a boy who was writing, and different shops of any kind. A place that accepted every one. Than the car stopped.

-Miss we arrived.

-Thank you Ric.

I got out of the car and saw Grimaldi Hotel, an antique and full of style, hotel my grandma recommended to me. When I entered I was welcomed by a warm sensation, as if I have been here before. In the reception I was meet with a old lady with gray hair and a friendly smile.

-Hello miss how can I help you.

-Hi, I have booked a room a week ago my name is Caroline Frubish.

-Oh yes miss, my name is Jackie.

-Nice to meet you Jackie, please call me Caroline.

-Okay, your room is number 21, do you want me to accompany you?

-Its okay I got it, have a nice day Jackie.

-Thank you dear.

I took the stair to go at my room, the hallway had different pictures with moments of history a real work of art I must say, the hallway had a dark deep red color. Than I found my room it was big, had a master bad, a bathroom, a big closet but the most important a balcony with the most mesmerizing view. It was the whole New Orlins.

After I finished putted on the drawers my clothes, I had a bath got dressed, texted my grandma that I arrived safe and sound. Than I sat on the chair in the balcony and felt the night breeze on my skin. As I was sitting there mesmerizing by the New Orlins city view I was lost at my thoughts of how my life will change, and who would I be.
