"Zuriel" Louis called impatiently. For a while now he had been outside their room waiting for her to get dressed so they could go out together but the young woman seems to be taking more time than needed.

On the other hand Zuriel was in a hurry to put on her baby pink flat with a dark pink bow on top. For a while she fidgeted with the second shoe due to her uneasiness and only succeeded in putting it right when she held on a couch for support. After writing and apology on her pad she quickly slung her bag over her shoulder after putting all her pills in in case they stayed out late With that she quickly hurried out of the room.

"I thought you know..." Louis began but hesitated before adding.
"All painted that's why you wasted so much time in dressing up"

"Am sorry I was uncertain of what to wear" Were the words Zuriel had written on her pad. Louis had to give a once over when he had read those words.
With a plain black flare skirt  below a baby pink turtle neck blouse and a makeup free face Zuriel seems not to have put a lot of effort in getting ready and even with that she still look more pretty than an average woman. Louis smiled impressed by her choice of clothes.

"Decent and beautiful" he complemented and Zuriel couldn't help but smile in response feeling pleases with herself.

Louis linked his fingers with hers and they walked out hand in hand with each other.

"Why a bike am scared of it" Zuriel wrote down and presented it to Louis when she saw him putting the keys in the keyhole as they stood beside it in the garage.

"Trust me Adi they are as save as any vehicle" Louis assured.

"It seems damaged,I mean only the skeleton and seat are left and I just buy the idea that a two legged vehicle is capable of providing save transport for a human" she wrote voicing out her fear.

"It's nothing to be scared of Adi" Louis said getting of the bike.
"Come on check it out it's as good as new" he added as he turned of the ignition engine and begin to twist the hand clutch continuous which caused her facial to soften.

"But still it just looks like it's not capable of bearing our weight" she penned down and he chuckled.

"It did the other day and moreover it's metallic so don't be scared it won't break" he responded whispering the last three words as he hopped on the bike and waited for him to do the same but instead she took a step back and observed the machine.

"We could take a cab,it's more safer" She insisted.

"There is no better way to explore the street of Paris if not on a bike Zuriel, you will miss the fun of it" he said giving her a wide smile and she conceited to his words and hopped unto the machine and he zoomed off immediately she did.

He took through streets of Paris showing her some of the iconic monuments in the city. She couldn't help but be excited by the things her eyes were seeing. Finally they came to avenue Victor Hugo the second longest avenue in Paris that begins from arc de triomph,she was also opportune to see the  startue of Hugo at the intersection  with avenue Henri-martin,there were a lot of architectural works on display that were so eye catching that she couldn't keep her eyes off them. The designs seems to increase in beautiful from workshop to workshop. Finally they came to halt at a small building formed with red bricks which had different paintings and inscription of various colors around it.

She dismounted in daze her eyes going around the vicinity in fascination.

"Here we are" Louis said (he parked his bike beside two MBW one white and the other black) his voice bringing back Zuriel who had her eyes all over the place in surveillance.
