Chapter 1 - Prelude

Me- dad, I'm home!

I shouted but I got no response and

that's when I saw the note on the fridge.

Last minute meeting. I'm really sorry

princessa. I'll make it up to you. I'll see

you this evening. Dad.

He even drew a heart next to the word

dad. I smiled as I read the note. He

spends most of his time with me but

when he has a meeting at work and has

to leave, he feels bad despite my

attempts at making it known to him that

its fine.

My dad is a business tycoon with loads

of businesses which means we are rich

but I don't care about the money. I only

care about my dad and making sure he

is fine. He is the one person I love more

than anything in this world except my

best friend Roseline. I don't have a

boyfriend because I don't want to have one. I wanna concentrate on myself, my

dad and my best friend. A lot of guys

have asked me on dates but I turn them

down.

I sent my dad a text saying its fine and

that I will see him tonight. I went on to

make lasagna for both for us.

I dished out the meal just as my dad

entered the kitchen.

Me- hey dad.

Dad- hey princessa.

Me- I made lasagna.

Dad- sounds delicious.

Me- come on and have a seat.

We ate in comfortable silence until my

dad broke it.

Dad- hey princessa.

Me- yeah.

Dad- have I told you how much I love

you?

Me- what do you want dad? I know you

love me but what's up?

Dad- my biggest business partner wants

to have dinner with us and he's bringing

his son.

Me- here?! And when?

Dad- no, we're going to Sotto Voce.

Tomorrow.

Me- ok. I just need to explain to Rose

why I have to cancel our shopping trip.

Dad- thank you so much princessa. I

love you so much.

Me- I love you too. I have to go to bed

so I will see you tomorrow.

Dad- sleep tight.

Me- you too.

We both went to bed.

________________________________

I woke up to my dad calling me to wake

up.

Dad- wake up princessa. I made

breakfast.

Me- coming dad.

I got up and took a shower before I went

to my walk-in closet. I took out a white

sleeveless dress with black heels. I

straightened my thick blonde hair and

applied lip gloss before going

downstairs.

Me- hey dad.

Dad- hey. You look beautiful.

Me- thanks.

Dad- will Rose pick you up for school?

Me- yeah, this week is her turn.

We both have cars but we rotate so that

every week one person drives, also

known as carpooling.

Dad- ok. I have to go to work so

remember to be home early so we can

go and meet my business partner.

Me- don't worry dad. I've got your back.

Dad- thanks. See you soon.

Me- see you later. Love you.

Dad- love you too.

As soon as dad left, I had my breakfast

and grabbed my bag before heading to

the porch to wait for Jenny. She finally

arrived and I hopped in.

Me- hey.

Jenny- hi Kristabel.

Me- how are you doing

Jenny- great, actually, except for my

parent's constant arguing. How are you?

Me- great. Jenny I'm really sorry but I

have to cancel shopping.

Jenny- why?

Me- I have to go to this dinner with my

dad's business partner and his son.

Jenny- its fine. I understand.

Me- shopping tomorrow?

Jenny- definitely.

After that we got down and headed to

our lockers before heading to class

together. We have class together. The

lessons were really boring and soon I

found myself sitting at the cafeteria

waiting for Rose. She had to go do

something.

Jenny- aaaahhh!!

Jenny came screaming in my ear.

Me- ok sweetie. I know you wanna tell

me something but I'm gonna need you

to use your words.

Jenny- ok Carol told me that Vince told

her that Ivy told him that Bruce told her

that Caleb told him that Emerald told

him that Carmen told her that there is a

hot guy starting high school here

tomorrow.

Me- then it must be true.

Jenny- maybe you could hook up.

Me- no no no. We've talked about this.

No dating for me. My mom and dad

dated and when she got pregnant, she

gave birth to me, she left. I can't handle

another person leaving. That's why I

don't get attached to people.

Jenny- When are you going to realize its

ok to love someone or its ok to get

attached to someone?

Me- Never, now let's go to the rest of

our classes.

Rose- Ok.
