Chapter One | An animated sunday

Kenny Jackson - Kouassi — Sunday, 1st june

Getting up in the morning after having a weird dream, next to a stranger in a hotel room, with a slight headache, became a routine for me.

Cause well yeah, I thought hooking up with every night with a gorgeous woman, and drinking my arse of was in fact a good idea.

Which is definitely not, please don't do that.

I mean at first, it's nice and all, but then after 2 years it's like getting boring. Yes, you heard me right 2 fucking years of my life wasted in in alcohol. Nope I'm not an alcoholic.

But anyway, in my defense I had a really bad break up, like really bad. It was pretty ugly for me.

My ex, Mia, yes that Mia Belmont, that model who is as famous as the Kardashians family.

Well, to summarize it a photograph and i have a business.

I know a lot of people from different industries, and I met her during photoshoot for a magazine, she wasn't really known at that moment. I fell in love at the first sight she was goddamn beautiful.

But I was naive, i thought she loved me too but she just uses me get more fame and power. And she cheated on me with a Huge dick, of the model industry.

So, it really fucked me up. But I'm doing better, at least trying.

And professionally speaking I'm not doing so bad, I'm even going to open a 2 new business in China and Spain.

The woman who was lying next to me woke up.

When I got home, my beautiful dog Romie gives me a warm welcome. This dog is really the sweetest, I adopted her two years ago for my ex's birthday, and since I've grown more attached to her.

"Hello, Romie, how are you, honey?" I'm stroking her silky fur, and I went in the bathroom to take a quick shower.

Before I could even take a proper breakfast, the doorbell ringed. I mean who could it be at 8 am, of course my bestie...

''Hello!'' She shouts Frida at the door, I open it for her, knocking rapidly on it.

"Hey open up!" Like seriously I have neighbours.

''Girl, it's Saturday morning, you're gonna wake up the whole building.'' I tell her while, opening the door and let her and her children in.

''Ok, I'm sorry." She said, not meaning at all."Anyway, you okay? You look like shit." God, why is she like that.

''Frida the children...'' I sighed to her, Ren, her second 6-year-old child, looks at her with big eyes.

''Oh, damn it!'' She grunts. "Don't repeat Mom's bad words, all right sweetheart?" He nods, Antonio, her 9-year-old, has his eyes fixed on the TV.

"You can go watch some movies on it of you want guys" I told to them.

They both take off their shoes and run to the couch, turning the tv on.

"Antonio, your brother is too young to watch that kind of things, put on some cartoons."She said, while taking her shoes off, before heading to the kitchen, and I followed her.

''I'm so motherfucking tired, man...'' She opens the fridge door and pulls out the orange juice, and I took a sit on the stool.

''Aika and I were supposed to go to a party, unfortunately...'' she grunts and rubbed her eyes, which made me smile. '' The babysitter dropped us at the last minute. So our fun night, turned into a fricking nightmare. '' She takes twoa glass and pours orange juice in it, I take one of themin and I kept listening to her complaints.

''We had to support them until 9 pm because of course they didn't want o sleep and when they finally decided to leave us alone, and you to like watch a stupid movie Ren, my adorable baby vomited in his bed.'' she said, sighting. " And the smell was unbearable so, the boys slept in our bed all night, and they snored loudly. " She finished, leaning on the counter, sipping her juice.

''Poor thing, you seem to have suffered a lot. But, you wanted to have them. '' I said with a laugh.

''Yeah, keep laughing, but wait, you'll see, when you get your first kid, you'll come crying at my door, too''. She says, glaring at me. ''Anyway, how was the girl from last night?''

''Umm, I mean why would I talk about that with you, you are too curious.'' I said to her laughing. Like no , we are best friends, but still.

"Oh come on, you don't have to tell me the details, I just want know if she was hot." she said pouting.

"Ok, so her name was Jessica, and let me tell you Jessica is a motherfucking bomb." And I wasn't kidding, she was beautiful.

"That's great for you, and I'm sorry to change the subject that abruptly but, I have a super good news."She said and I could feel the excitement in her voice.

"Ok, so we may be invited to a fashion show in Paris, and, stop making that face butch I'm not even finished yet, anyway, Christian Aldini, yes man, that guy said he wanted to meet us because he want to create I quote " something fresh", for his new collection and he also loves our work. "My jaw was on the floor, Christian Aldini, The fucking CEO of Diamond, asked us, like ok we are kind of famous, but still it is a huge opportunity for me Frida and our company.

"Close your mouth and stop pinching yourself, but hey seriously, this is what we needed, if it is a success, we will have enough money to do more, and this what you've always wanted, being able to do something huge for once." She came closer to me and she gave me a hug." We are gonna meet Christian Aldini, hiii!! ". She literally jumped from excitement.

" Yes and it's going to be amazing. "
