After taking care of the business at hand, Theo took us straight to France.
As soon as we stepped off the plane, the wave of heat that greeted us made our moods turn lively.
Being in a city like this, it was hard not to be enthusiastic, right?
As I thought about this, I was already off the plane before I knew it.
When we left the airport, the driver was already at the door. Hence, we got in the car and went straight to the hotel.
We arrived in Paris at noon, so we could not see the neon lights. However, we could see a large area of a variety of colors under the sunlight.
The buildings were different from those back home, which made Munchkin look dumbfounded. The little guy kept pressing against the car window, very curious about everything he saw.
"It looks like we should take Munchkin out for more walks. He seems to like these different experiences."
Theo glanced in the rearview mirror and was relieved to see the expression on Munchkin s face.
I knew that Munchkin's happiness would be the best comfort to Theo now.
"So don't get so stressed out. Munchkin can feel how much you care about him."
I comforted, reaching out to pat Theo's shoulder.
When we arrived at the hotel, Theo had already booked a room in advance. It was the best suite in the hotel on the top floor.
Munchkin had a separate small room.
There was a large floor-to-ceiling window in that room.
Outside our large room, there was an open-air swimming pool. The top floor had a great view. It was a completely private space where no one could disturb us.
The moment I pulled back the curtains, I was overwhelmed by the view of Paris. I looked at the Eiffel Tower in the distance and had the feeling that I was on my honeymoon.
I felt the familiar sizzling heat and knew he was on the edge of his seat. However, now was not the time.
I pushed him away once more. "Munchkin is still next door."
"It's okay. We'll just lock the door." His low voice spat out these words.
I panicked for a moment, and before I had a chance to retort, I was picked up by him and put on the bed.
Just as he was about to make his next
move, he heard Munchkin’s footsteps.
I rolled onto my back, and Theo stopped moving. The next second, the door was pushed open. "Mommy, let's go out and have some fun out on the streets."
"Munchkin, why didn't you knock?" Theo's face showed that he was unhappy.
