SZNS SERIES 1: Summer Maria Writes (ebook pc reader .txt) 📖

"So, this is like our first date. Ever. Wow, this is kinda fancy for first date." She said that made Jesse laugh. They both walked towards the tower where a lot of people are having fun.

They reached the tower and rode the elevator that will take them to the first floor where 58 Tour Eiffel is located. She cannot believe she's finally making her dreams come true. When the doors of the elevator opened, she held her breath as she looked at the magnificent view of the Champ de Mars from below.

Before, she cannot imagine making her dreams come true, but now she's finally here. Maybe France is the best place to live after college. Forget about Los Angeles, she'll live here in Paris next year after she graduate. In here, she knows she can find a best career.

Jesse escorted her inside the restaurant where they were led to their table. Everything looks fancy. She had a peek of the great view the place has to offer from where she is sitting.

"Thank you for taking me here. I can't believe I'm here. I can't wait to tell my mom to find me a place here after college."

"You'll live here? As in for good?" Jesse asked. He seemed surprise by her plans. She planned of moving out of L.A after college and nothing can stop her from doing that.

Chole sit straight and looked at Jesse intently "Yes, actually, I was planning on moving somewhere after college for a long time now. I can't just stay in one place. I need some change in scenery. And Paris is not that bad, right?"

He didn't say a thing and just stared outside. Did I say something wrong?  He seemed pissed at what she said. She wanted to ask why but she's afraid that their conversation won't turn out good so she decided to just shut her mouth.

She doesn't have the slightest idea why he was pissed. When their food arrived, Jesse was just silently eating. It hurts her that he's not talking to her. Chloe didn't even know if she said something that might have offended him. Is it about her moving in to Paris next year? Was that the reason why he's pissed at her? If that's what making him sulk, then she thinks it's best not to move here.

"Jesse, I'll just stay in L.A, I don't think my mother can find a place for me here. It's a bit expensive there but that will do. Just please talk to me. Stop sulking, you look like a brat."

Still, no answer from him. And she's starting to be pissed as well. She tried her best to calm herself. Luckily, it worked. But she can't still help but roll her eyes at Jesse for acting like that. She cannot understand why moving here to Paris is such a problem.

After dinner, they decided to went back to the hotel. Jesse was still quiet. They waited for a while for the car to arrive and drove back to their place. In the car, she took her phone from her purse and message her mother. If Jesse is still like this until they arrive at the hotel, she will leave early in the morning. She doesn't like being surrounded by stubborn people.

Her mother didn't reply to her message. She must be busy. I'll just gave her a call later. The car stopped in front of the hotel building and Jesse head out of the car. She was surprised when he opened the car door for her. They both entered the building and head for the elevator.

They were both quiet inside the elevator, she can feel tension coating around them. But she just kept quiet as always, afraid that she might say something that she'll regret. The door opened at the eighth floor then Jesse walked out without waiting for her. So, she quickly pressed nine button and the elevator brought her to the ninth floor where her room is.

As she opens the door of her room, tears are falling down her eyes. She can't believe her night ended like this. Why can't he understand that maybe there is a future waiting for her here? That she's doing this for her future? What is so wrong about her plans that Jesse couldn't understand how important that is to her?

Her phone rang and made her wiped her tears. She looked at the caller ID and saw that it was her mother. Chloe calmed herself before answering the call. "Hi mom, how's Bordeaux? You guys having fun?" she asked hoping that her mother won't notice that she has been crying. But who is she joking? Mother knows best.

"Chloe, have you been crying? Where's Jesse? What happen?" Her mother threw her tons of questions and there she knew that her mother is worried.

"Jesse happened mom. I told him that I plan to move here in Paris next year after college. But his not thrilled of the news. He didn't talk to me after that. What should I do? I mean, he should understand that, right? If he really loves me, he'll let me do things that makes me happy. Like what dad is doing for you. Right?"

"Well, honey, did Jesse tell you that he loves you already?"

That made her dumbstruck. Not even once did Jesse told her that he loves her. But she can feel it. Action speaks louder than voice. He may not tell her that but she knows it's just there. "No, he hasn’t. But still, he should be happy for me. Instead, she sulked like a three-year old and didn't talk to me for the rest of our dinner."

"Chloe, if he still didn't talk to you until tomorrow, I think it's best for us to go home. We're on our way to Paris, we'll book in the same hotel you're in. I'll go visit you tomorrow morning. For now,
