Zelda Stevens~
Zelda wiped the tears that kept trickling down her chin, The stupid tears wouldn't stop but how would they stop when she has been terribly hurt, By her own parents!
Growing up she wasn't used to seeing her Dad around as he was the Field marshal in the army, Her dad was so strict she literally used to shiver and scramble away anytime she heard his voice.
She went to Harvard and studied law but she wasn't the least interested in being a lawyer, She always loved modeling! She loved the run way shows! But her parents could never understand her.
She parked her car by the road side and sighed, Where would she go to now? Of course she wasn't regretting not listening to her father, As a matter of fact she was relieved and happy she could stand for herself and leave the house! But where would she go to? She had no place in mind! She couldn't go to her managers place because it wasn't professional
She could do a hotel right? So she turned on the ignition of the car and started to drive around too, One thing was sure she would not be getting an hotel around so she started to drive.
Her phone started to ring and she plugged in her AirPods "Jade, What's up!" She says and heard some shuffling on the line "Ah Zee, I have been trying to reach you for the past hour, Don't forget your appointment for today! " Jade reminded her and Zelda's hands tightened on the steering wheel "I'm afraid we will have to reschedule it, Jade! I am in a bit of a situation right now and I can't grant any interview or appointments today" she says and heard Jade gasp over the phone
"What do you mean Zee, You know it is going to be difficult to just reschedule! They confirmed with me yesterday and I told them
You would be there so what are you saying now? !" Jade yelled over the phone and Zelda squinted her eyes "I'm sorry Jade but reschedule it, I would call you later " She says and waited for no reply from the woman before cutting the call.
Her father, Sir Rowland II just had to ruin the day for her, She is a 23 years old lady and is an adult already! Why does he think he has the right to dictate how her life should go and shouldn't? She gets that he was used to being in command and giving orders but she won't be taking such orders when it involved her own life.
Zelda drove until she found an hotel Edward Island, She knew the place and it was the perfect place for her. She sighed internally and drove into the place, stopping at the checkpoint for the security, After she was done she drove towards the entrance and got down, giving the key of her car to the butler, A call man came ahead and assisted her with her luggages.
She walked towards the receptionist whose eyes widen on recognizing her, Zelda sighed internally at the way she looked, She knew she wasn't looking her best that morning and it didn't help matters that someone recognized her
"Give me your finest suite!" She says and the woman nods quickly, After a while the entire process was completed, she was handed her key.
Zelda took the elevator upstairs to where the room was and opened the door, thanking the man for his service she watched as he walked away. Zelda removed her slippers and plopped unto the bed, She brought put her phone to check if there was any missed call from her mom but as usual there was nothing.
She sighed and turned off the phone, She couldn't believe her mom would totally let her be! Was it so horrible to be a model? She knew her parents were ashamed of her but she always tried to prove herself was but it wasn't enough, She constantly had to out up with the normal comparison between her and her elder brother Brian!
Brian is a doctor and owns an hospital here in NewYork, He was doing pretty well for himself which was why her parents preferred him over her!
Zelda sat up, She was done with the self pity! She was done sulking that her parents couldn't love her like they should! She stood up and looked around the wall of the suite, It was the executive suite and she saw why! It was simply gorgeous, She could see why Edward's Island was the best in NewYork city! The view was simply breathtaking
She peeled off her clothes and stepped into the luxurious bathroom, A smile made itself way to her lips as she looked around! She wanted her house bathroom to be just like this, It was satisfying to look at.
Zelda stepped filled the bathtub with water and bubble soap, She scooped the water and saw that the temperature was cool, Lifting her feet she stepped into the bathtub and laid in it, It was relaxing and welcoming
It felt like home!
After she was done bathing, She towel dried her body and unzipped the bag she brought with her, Picking out a tank top and shorts , she wore it and dried her hair after which she tied it into a ponytail.
She took out her phone again and turned it on, Several messages and calls from Jade asking why she canceled and about three missed calls from Anna!
Her best friend Anna! When her family decided to not support her, Anna became her family, Anna supported her all through thick and thin, Anna was there for her and Zelda couldn't be more grateful to Anna!.
She immediately dialed Anna's number to which after about two rings Anna picked
"Where did you put your phone silly? I called severally!" She whined into the phone and Zelda chuckled warmly
"I had a huge fight with my dad and I left the house!" She said and heard nothing over the phone "You left? As in you went out ?" Anna asked again and Zelda rolled her eyes
"I left as in, I LEFT! I told him I won't be coming back to the house again!" She says and heard Anna gasp over the phone
"Where the hell are you now, I'm coming over ASAP!" Anna says and Zelda chuckled
"Edward's Island.." She says and heard a beep over the phone
Anna had cut the call, Zelda smiled and dropped the phone on the bed. If her parents decided to ignore her existence she could as well ignore them
After all she had a family and it wasn't them!
