In the morning Chang poured herself and Jian each a cup of coffee from her carafe as she looked at Justin. Sitting across from her, Justin sat calmly sipping his coffee the faint hint of a smirk showing as he kept his eyes trained on the cup. Seating herself beside Jian, Chang adjusted her coffee to her taste.
"Hey, Justin is all your stuff at my grand-père's?"
"Yep, we've covered this. We left it right where we abandoned it running from the man you're happily sitting next to."
"Ahem. Including your passport?" Choking a little on her small sip of coffee, Chang quickly cleared her throat before continuing on as if nothing happened.
"Yep, all my shit, except for the clothes on my back and my all but useless cell phone."
"Well you're gonna need that, you leave in the afternoon or evening right?"
"Yeah somewhere in there, I can't remember the exact time anymore." As if it did not concern him Justin shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly.
Pinching her brow Chang tried to think of how to plan the day out while trying to quell her rising irritation at his devil-may-care attitude.
"Hmm what to do. Fine, we need to get that for you. Unfortunately though I am probably not going to be able to take you to see the Eiffel Tower. I remember that you said you're flying out of Paris. Lyons is a few hours away, even by train, considering the round trip time. I don't want you to miss your flight."
"Aw what... No fair." Making an exaggerated face like a neglected puppy, Justin sighed while resting his chin on the table; if he had had ears and a tail they would have been completely drooped.
"Maybe I could just stay a little longer, who needs a boyfriend anyways. The Eiffel tower is a once in a lifetime thing."
Rolling her eyes at his dramatization, Chang spoke again, trying to rectify the situation as it was mostly her fault.
"Well if it's fine with Eric, it would be fine with me. I've really missed you and I am more than able to help you get another flight."
"Nah I really miss my poopsie, I do have to go back home." Raising his head Justin cupped a hand to his cheek sighing again.
"I give up, there's just no making sense of this capricious guy!!
"That's it problem solved, I'll just have to come again soon for the Eiffel tower!"
"Just the Eiffel tower?" Lifting an eyebrow at him Chang waited for him to respond as he tapped on his chin.
"Well I guess maybe you too, though not if I'll turn into a third wheel. Or if I get threatened by your boyfriend." As he spoke Justin gave a pointed look at Jian.
"Husband." From the side Liang JianAmal corrected Justin, without acknowledging the rest, enjoying his coffee that his wife had made him.
"What? No! That's never gonna happen!" Looking between the two confused, Chang assured her friend.
'Well it did last night..' Keeping his lips sealed Justin took a big gulp of his coffee, avoiding answering her quizzical look.
Thankfully someone politely knocked on the door immediately drawing Chang's attention.
"Who's knocking on my door now? I swear my door has been more popular this past week than it has been the past year." Muttering herself Chang rose up to go greet whoever it was.
As soon as she left Liang JianAmal looked up from his cup to Justin and mouthed a few words of warning to Justin.
Immediately Justin regretted being relieved to see her leave and only wished Shar would hurry up and return.
"Grand-père! This is a surprise!" Seeing who was on the other side Chang immediately opened the door wider with a smile and greeted him in French. Hearing her greeting at the table the two men's faces grew more sour for opposite reasons.
'Great, now everyone is back to speaking in a way I can't understand.'
'Great, Jean-Jacques Dumont, someone whom I hoped not to see for a long while. Especially now that things are going well.'
