[Outside in the Garden]
"Fred I have something important to discuss with you. Do you have time?" Hera asked." Of course honey. I always have time for my wife. Tell me what is it?" Fredric asked. "Well, I was thinking maybe we can send Mari and Ruby on a 'Summer Vacation' to Paris. So, it will be like a vacation for Ruby And it will be easy for Mari to go around in Paris while she is doing her higher studies in the college.What do you say we send them to Paris for a month? Anyways I have already booked the plane tickets, I just wanted to confirm that you don't have any problem with this planning of mine" Hera after telling Fredric what she had planned waited for his answer." Well, what problems will I have my dear it is indeed a wonderful idea. So let's proceed with this plan, you have my approval" Fredric replied to his wife with a genuinely happy smile. After their conversations were over they went to bed as well.
[The Next Morning,7:30.A.M]
Hera and Fredric had called for her two daughters to the main hall for a family discussion. After everyone arrived, Ruby spoke, "Can't a woman in this house have a peaceful workout session without any disturbances" Ruby said in an slightly annoyed voice. "I'm going to pretend that I didn't hear that and forget it without any scoldings. So, back to the point, I am going to send you two on a summer vacation to Paris and your flight is in two days and you'll be staying there for a month so I suggest that you both start packing, and enjoy the trip kiddos" Hera finished with a bright smile evident on her face. "OMG!!!! I am not dreaming, am I? Mari we have no time to waste. Come on let's go pack our things right now" Ruby shouted at the top of her lungs and started to pull Mari to go packing. "Huh?...Hey then what about your exercise and my designing time. And besides we have a lot of time" Mari tried to protest in vain. "Just forget about those for the next one month. Also I know you too well to let you pack the same set of cloths you wear all the time we go on any type of vacation" Ruby replied while still pulling her to her room. "What are you talking about? They are seriously very comfortable and they are not the same they just look a lot alike" Mari corrected her little sister while trying to escape from her. "Their all the same right, they do look like you are repeatedly wearing the same set of clothes in a cycle till they are worn out. So, we are going shopping and you are giving all of the clothes that look similar leaving one set each and sent the remaining to the orphanage. You have no rights to protest" Ruby said sternly leaving no room for Mari to protest. Just like Ruby said all of the clothes which looked alike to each other were given to the orphanage leaving one set behind and with that done Mari's wardrobe looked absolutely empty with nearly very little clothes (When I mean very little,I mean very little guys). So after a long day Ruby and Mari finished half of their packing since they had to go for shopping for Mari's clothes. That night they had dinner happily and went to bed.
[The Next Morning]
Mari and Ruby got up and started packing as soon as they finished their breakfast and were done packing before lunch.Time went by fast and they got everything ready for their trip. After dinner they went to sleep early to wake up soon the next morning cause they had a flight to catch at 9:00.A.M.
[The Day Of The Trip]
"Finally the day of the trip. Yayyyyyy!!!!" Ruby exclaimed while Mari laughed at her little sister's childish behaviour. They bid farewell to their parents and left to the airport and boarded the plane and reached Paris and then they finally arrived at their hotel. After they arrived at their hotel they unpacked their clothes and took a nice warm shower and it was finally night. They ate dinner at the hotel and came back to their room to rest. "Wait, we forgot that today is the day before full moon in Paris. Come on Ruby let's watch the moon. I heard that the moon on the day before full moon and on the day of the full moon looks the same in here" Mari said exited as she called for Ruby. "OMG, yes yes I totally forgot I'm coming sis. Save a spot for me next to you, don't take up all the space in the sofa" Ruby replied almost immediately and came and sat next to Mari and they both watched the moon for a while and went to sleep.
[The Next Morning In Paris]
Ruby woke up early and started to wake Mari up as well." Hey wake up sleepy head we are going to the famous forest in Paris today. Come on we have to rush or else we'll be late" Ruby successfully woke Mari up after a good 5 minutes of time. "Ruby I'm ready to go, what about you?" Mari asked after she got ready. "I'm ready as well. Come on let's go for breakfast and straight to the forest" Ruby replied as she came out of her room. They both were wearing a full hand below knee length frocks. Mari was wearing a gray frock with a brown belt around her waist with a matching gray beret. Ruby was wearing a sky blue frock. Both Mari and Ruby were having a camera in their hands so they could take pictures of the forest and all the other places they were going to visit for the whole month.
