06. Cherchez la Cactus

Good old Bob was in love but nothing really happened for the next couple few days. Literally.  Along weekend for some reason but the weather cold, cloudy with rain locking everybody inside. Philip was there, Anne was there and even slimy trump was parked and quiet. Ms Bonjour nowhere to be seen.

“Cherchez la Cactus,” Anne said with a smile when Bob tried to ask about Ms Bonjour and it somehow looked like he wasn’t the first one to ask. Philip was looking pretty moody and Mr Slimy on the other side looked definitely gloomy.

“Oh please, all of you Don Juans of Växjö, she will come…” Anne said loud making bob and Philip look down in embarrassment.”

And she did.
Late in the evening, all lights on and brightening the sunset she was back. Full of life, a little tipsy and singing one of those …amour songs. Bob felt a bit uncomfortable with the sight, Philip was quiet and Joe slob had a naughty smile.

“What’s up girl?” Joe slob asked.
“Me? Very happy…” Ms le Cactus said.
“Me too, shall we be more happy together?” Joe slob winked with his fog lights.
“Oh la la, monsieur! You make me flash!”
“My intention exactly little lady…”

Bob was getting frustrated with the situation with Philip obviously and visually sharing his motions. But before either of them could do or say something they all heard a soft snore coming from le Cactus side.
Princess had fallen asleep!
