Oui Oui The Croissant

“And I saw the crossiant sanitizer.” I tell my friends.

                               ✨✨✨

I walk into the French restaurant, the scent of delicious, formal foods filling the air. I take a seat at a near table and the waiter comes along in no time.

“I’ll be your waiter tonight. What may I get for you, madame?” Says the fancy waiter.

“I’d like ratatouille, please.” The stewed vegetables sounded good, and the movie’s good, too. “And a iced water.” He nods his head and stalks away.

I look around see the families and friends eating their meals and laughing. I had invited my two friends, Arianna and Penley, but they were too busy.

My waiter returns with the ratatouille, water, and some complimentary crossiants. I grab one of the delicious breads and am about to take a bite of it when-

“NO, DONT EAT ME!” Comes an unidentified voice.

“Who said that?” I ask no one.

“Me, Oui Oui!” I look down and see the crossiant in my hand talking. She had a beret and a smiley face.

“Your name’s Yes Yes?” I voice the first question that comes to my mind.

“No, it’s Oui Oui.” She looks confused, but shrugs it off. “I’m from a shop in France called Wrath and Body Works. People thought it as edible for some reason!”

“What’s Wrath and Body Works?” I ask her. Oui Oui tells me it’s a store with fragrance, lotion, and soaps.

“And hand sanitizers, which I am,” Oui Oui explains.

“Would you like to go back to that store?

“ARE YOU GONNA TAKE ME TO FRANCE?!?!”

“Well, I looked it up on Oogle Maps and there’s a Warth and Body Works near us…if that’s okay with you…” To my surprise, she beams.

“That would be astounding!” She exclaims. I finish my ratatouille and pay the waiter, who seemed a little confused as to why I was carrying a crossaint out the door.

Oui Oui and I walk to Wrath and Body Works, where the scent of Japanese Cherry Blossom fills the air. A few girls walk by, their hands filled with soaps and sanitizers.

I take Oui Oui over to the other hand sanitizer holders and place her down. “Well, I guess this is goodbye, Oui Oui.”

“Yes, thank you.” She says, “And that ratatouille was really good…well, see you later-maybe.” I wave goodbye and walk out the door.

I stand outisde for a minute, have prominent feeling this isn’t the last time I’m going to see Oui Oui.

                              ✨✨✨

“Guess what!” Penley exclaims the next day.

“What?” Arianna asks enthusiastically.

“I got a crossiant hand sanitizer holder from Wrath and Body Works!” Penley tells us.

My head turns so fast I’m scared I might get whiplash. “What? What’s her name? Oui Oui?”

Penley is suprised I know so much and Arianna is just confused, so I tell them the alluring story. Arianna asks Penley to get out Oui Oui, and she does.

“Hi, guys! Nice to meet you, Arianna!” Oui Oui says excitedly. The sight and voice of her makes me relieved and happy she ended up in good hands.

“I’m suprised you didn’t mention her amazing music ability.” Penley tells me.

“Her music ability?” I’m confused, she didn’t have anything to do with music when I met her.

“Someone in Wrath and Body Works taught me some amazing music!” She played a French song that had us swaying back and forth. The clear and elegant melody eventually endened.

“That was beautiful.” Arianna complimented. Oui Oui thanked her.

“Well, I have to run. I’ll see you guys later.” Penley said. Arianna agreed and we all stood up to leave.

“Bye,” Oui Oui said before Penley put her away. They waved goodbye and left out the door.

                            ✨✨✨

I see Oui Oui on my way to GetTar, and wave hi. Later, when I’m texting my friends, I say, “And I saw the crossiant sanitizer.”
