Anika's pov.
"Babygirl we're at the airport,get up" I felt Thomas shaking me. Opening my eyes I took the ear pods out of my ears and looked around now seeing that we have arrived at the airport.
Turning to look at my father I saw him already looking at me with an unreadable look in his eyes.
"The hell are you looking at? " I asked aggressively, I mean theres not much to me for him to be looking like that.he's looking at me like I'm some alien.
"Ok. Let's go" Well I guess my tone snapped him out of his zone. He stepped out of the car and went to get my suitcase, while I got out and stand at the car door.
"I can take those" I stated reaching for my luggages taking them from his grip. Sighing he nodded his head and started walking towards the airport. As we head inside, Thomas checks us in at the front desk. I continued listening to my music paying him no attention, I felt a tap on my shoulder. "What?" I asked feeling annoyed.
"Sweetie we have to go to the gate or well miss our flight. " He said said sadly. I nodded my head and followed behind mi.
"Are we going to sit beside each other?" I questioned.
" No I figure you wouldn't want to sit next to me in first class. "
I was surprised when he said first class but I wasn't that shocked because from the looks of it he has upgraded in life since the last time I've seen him.
After finally reaching in the plain I realized that I was only one seat in front of him. I was seated beside an old business man that looked like he had was too much caffeine and a boy around my age whose sleeping. Didn't we just board the plane how the hell is this dude sleeping.
I wonder what life with Thomas will be like. I just hope that my mom made the right decision sending me off with a man that I no longer knew. I loved my father so much I was the perfect little daddy's but he hurt my mother and then he hurt me. I would stare at the phone for hours thinking that my father would call, thinking that he'll never be too busy for me his only daughter but I was so wrong. I don't think of this man as my father. He hasn't help my mom with anything that had to do with me or about me so why should I.Last week as far as I knew this man was dead to me and now I'm on a plane going to live with him one thing that I've dread.
"Hey, you ok?" I heard a deep voice asked. Looking to my left I saw that it was the dude that was asleep. " I'm Elliot." He said proudly with him hand stretched out for me to shake.
Shaking it I said "Anika." Honestly this dude is cute jade green eyes, brown hair and a almost great jaw line but he wasn't my type.
" Enjoying the view?" He spoke. Oh the joy he's cocky. Note the sarcasm
"Your not my type" I said in a bored tone. "Don't get ahead of your self." He stared laughing shaking his head as if I said something funny.
"I like your attitude." I rolled my eyes at that because I don't care if he does it not.
"So are you where in new York are you going?" He asked looking at me.i figured that I'll be in the flight for a while so why not just talk to him. I found out he was in Florida to visit his grandparents , he goes to St. Joseph's High School in new york, plays football for his school team that is really good but I ended up falling asleep after we watched a movie.
"Psssst. Yow wake up" I felt someone shaking me. "The plane just landed"it continued.Hearing that I woke up seeing that we have indeed landed.
" Thanks bud." I said ruffling his hair I got up from my seat to take up my dad seeing my dad.
"Oh Nika" Elliot said pulling my arm back " So your not going to give me your number? " He asked with a pout
Chuckling I said, " Guess what if I see you another time I promise you I'll give you my number" and with that my father and I got off the plane. I frowned suddenly wondering back home to my mother.
"So sweetie who was that boy that you were talking to?" Rolling my eyes I choose to ignore him because quite frankly I didn't see how it could possibly be any of his business.
I felt a vibration in my pocket and saw that I got a text from MOM♡
Mom♡ : Baby have you landed as yet?
Me: Yes I just did. How are you? Are you ok there? I could comeback.
Mom♡ : Honey every thing is fine and I'm okay. I hope your not going your father any trouble.
Me: of course not I bet me living with him will give him the time of his life.
Mom♡ : Honey you promised. Please behave for me honey. Remember mom loves and will always be with you. I gotta focus on my work my boss it having a pissy fit.I love you.
Me: Lol ok bye. I love you too.
Laughing shaking my head I slipped my phone back into my pocket seeing father staring at me again .
"The fuck are you looking at Thomas?" I asked stop smiling.
"Esma can you atleast talk to me with a little more respect I am your father." He said sternly
"oh right I seem to forget that seems it's been so long.i really dont care anyways though. Let's just make it clear that the only reason why ik here is because my mother made me come here. I don't like you and I don't see you as a father after what you did to mom and then what you did to me." I said with a dark look on my face. "Now is there anything that o should know before we leave this airport?" I asked that because I feel like I'm in for quite a damn suprise and I love surprises but I hate him so I wanna know.
I saw him to a noticeable gulp before answering me "No" He said walking off towards the door of the airport . I hope hes right because I'm not in the mood.
Up on arriving outside I said a man in a black suit looking like as buff as the rock holding up a sign with ours names on it. I didn't question it but I saw my father talking to him so I gave him a head nod and got in the vehicle.
"Esme, this is Steve he's one of my bodyguard. Steve this is Esme my daughter." Dad said introducing us.
"It's lovely to meet you Ms. Parker. Your father talks a lot about you" He said driving off.
"Please don't lie to me and you can call me Nika. " I spoke putting my ear pods in my ears looking put of the window falling a sleep yet again.
"Have you told her yet sir? " I heard Steve asked my father.
Sighing I heard my father said no but the darkness was calling my name so I just gave in and didn't get to hear the end of their conversation.
