They are playmates and close friends
since young
and i cant count the number of stories
how they used to spend every summer and christmas holidays together
However, due to some unknown saga,
Cousin and aunt stopped spending christmas with them.
I think it had been many years until our wedding
that cousin and aunt met the whole family
Husband is still very close to cousin
consider the fact that he was his bestman for the wedding
despite the fact that cousin currently works in south america,
husband do try to keep in contact
and spends all the time with him when he is in Paris
And luckily,
every december, cousin comes to Paris for his meeting
it was like the official time for husband to catch up with cousin
and plenty of parties
haha
This year, cousin can only stay 3 days in Paris
husband got a little upset that cousin was considering to stay at a friend's place
and not at our home
I guess cousin didnt want to bother us
since our apartment is small and we are married
in the end, my sister in law decided to come meet cousin
and requested to stay at our place for 1 night
so we agreed
FRIDAY
Husband left work early so that he can meet cousin early
See! so excited!! haha
Cousin and friend K arrived at ou home
and suddenly the party started at our home
instead of the designated pub
all the friends started arriving at home
Thankfully, friend A came with more beers and snacks
After 2+ hours at our small appartment,
they finally moved to the pub
which i excused myself to clean up the apartment
and enjoy a quiet evening
based on husband's account,
they went to the pub till closing time
then a disco till closing time
and finally another disco till closing time
well, they arrived home at 0630
I was really surprised that cousin returned with them
and ended up sleeping at our home
SATURDAY
Due to husband's drunk sleeping style,
and the waking up
i ended up leaving home at noon
to grab a lunch and bought breakfast for them
Friend M arrived at 1400 to wake up drunkens up, haha
despite the brunch appointment at friend A home
the group left at 1630 for dinner instead
while sister in law returned to versailles
I get to enjoy another quiet evening again
before the men returned at 0230
because husband was down with flu
thats why the night ended early
SUNDAY
I think we woke up around 1300
and waited for the rest of the guys to go for lunch
which started at 1500
i went along since it was the last lunch before cousin leave for home
Cousin and friend M left at 1700 to catch their train
and we stayed till about 1800 to finish the drinks
I guess husband is really happy
to spend so much time with cousin
and that he slept over at our home for all the nights
although he is disappointed that cousin didnt prepare christmas presents for him
I guess it will be long again before we get to see cousin again
PS: the arrival of cousin and intense gatherings
made me felt really lonely
at times i do understand the conversations
but most of the time, i was just dreaming in my head
I really miss the times to hang out with my friends,
having random conversations , drinks and parties
And I do miss spending time with my family too
I guess its normal to be home sick
even after my relocation for france for a year
I hope life will be better for 2015
especially my social circle...
