"Daddy why are you sleeping on the couch?" Aria woke him the following morning.
"Good morning Ria."
"Good morning daddy,why did you sleep here?"
"I slept off, it's nothing serious",he told his daughter.
"Going somewhere Autumn?" he asked but he didn't get an answer from her,instead she walked out.
Her mother was still asleep when she left,so she couldn't tell her about her whereabouts. She went to the receptionist and told her she will be back before the evening,she even left her phone number with the lady. She lied that her father wasn't in the room and her mother was sleeping,so she couldn't inform them.
She went on the beach and sat for hours alone. She rejected every single call from her father and deleted his text before she could even read it.
She spotted a cliff near the beach and went to sit there,with her knees to her chest and arms wrapped around them she began to cry her eyes out. She so needed this alone time to let it all out.
"Mmm-mmh", someone cleared their throat behind her.
She turned and it was Jake,he stood behind her with his hands in the pockets of his jeans.
