CHAPTER ONE
Kristen knelt in front of her dad's cemetery. Her eyes was already red due to crying for hours.
"Dad..... leaving me all along isn't fair"she sniffed before continuing with a shaken voice.
"You should have told me you were leaving...we don't keep things from each other but you did..... but I can't hate you for that..... you aren't even here for me to get angry and it hurts dad!"she cried.
Others who were there for their business had to face her cause it feels like she's shooting a movie.
"I'm all alone dad! You shouldn't have gone...I miss you"she muffled the last part, cleaning the tears on her face with her palm but more kept pouring as she remembered the times with him.
"Dad!!!!!!!"she screamed.
**
Finally, she came out, checking the time, it's 10 on dot. She sighed deeply before stopping a taxi which took her to a store.
She planned on staying indoor for a month, no restaurant, no dad, just an empty home. She sighed again at the thought of it before walking to start picking what she did be needing.
The TV in the store was on, a show of Griffin winning the award for the best company of the year.
"You've got a better life, money, two daughters and many money, money money"she muttered before looking away as she picked the stuff she needs while she put it in the basket.
Few minutes later, she was done. She walked out of the store with her stuff.
Her apartment is just five building away. She finally got home and instead of taking the elevator, she took the stairs.
"Kristen!"Liliana her best friend shouted, jumping on her.
"Not now Lili"she groaned.
"Come on, it has been months since you've been acting weird and I really hate this side of you"Liliana groaned too.
"It's just....I remember him almost everytime Lili!"she cried and Liliana hugged her.
"Please stop it Riri"Liliana started crying too.
"Jesus! Is this some live drama!"someone gasped so the both of them turned only to see Liliana's brother Matty, who's in highschool.
"You little!"Kristen shouted.
"I got beers!"he waved the nylon he's with but they scoffed. "And some chicken"he raised his other hand, waving the nylon. The both of them rushed to him as they took each a nylon, rushing to the elevator.
"I thought you were both emotional right now!"Matty shouted as he joined them in the elevator.
Liliana knew Kristen just when she left home to come stay here. It has been two years since they know each other but it's just feels like forever.
**
Liliana's eyes flew opened as the sun pierced into her eyes through the window. They're in Kristen apartment.
"Geez! I'm late!"she shouted as she rushed to the bathroom not wanting to check the time.
"I'm off sis!"Matty shouted from their own apartment and that woke Kristen up. Her hand moved to her mouth and she stood up immediately, rushing into the bathroom, but she couldn't hold it to the water closet so she poured it on the closest thing/ person. Liliana. She throw up on her.
"What the hell Kristen! I'm done bathing!"she shouted.
"I'm sorry..."another one landed on Liliana's V spot.
"Get out!!!!"she shouted and Kristen immediately did. Few minutes later, Liliana walked out of the bathroom.
"Hey!"
"It's almost eight"Kristen said and she gasped. Walking straight to the hanged clothes since there's no wardrobe.
"Don't put on that!"Kristen ran to her, taking the white shirt from her.
"Please, I'll get a job for you"Liliana said so she slowly let go of it. "You're the best!!!"she blew kisses.
Kristen scoffed and walked towards the only table in the room, there's a note there. *I took just two notes each, bye sis sis*she read and gasped. Rushing to her purse, it's just two notes instead of four.
"I'm killing Matty soon!"
**
Liliana came down from the taxi and began rushing into the company. It's already nine on dot and right now, she's hopping not to see anyone but luck wasn't on her side cause Griffin's car just walked in.
She immediately threw her bag away. Wanting to act as if she came out for something.
"Good morning boss!"she greeted as he walked past her but he said nothing, only maintaining his cold face.
Yeah, it's what you're thinking, she works at Griffin company.
Liliana quickly picked her bag and rushed in.
*
Griffin got into his office, only to meet piles of files on his table. He skipped two days just cause of his kids who'd turn his island upside down cause of their mood swing.
"I don't want anyone only when I sent for them"he said and walked to his table while Dante his personal assistant and bodyguard bowed and walked out.
Griffin sighed deeply as he sat down. Doing all this, making all this money is just to give his girls a better life. He has no intention in spending money unnecessary.
He picked his glasses and put them on, switching on his laptop he started working but immediately, his phone rang. He groaned on seeing who it was. Minnie, one of his twin.
"Papa!"her crying voice was what he heard as he picked. "Baby"he said.
"I really don't wanna go to school and the maid keep pestering me on going"she said.
"So?"
"I got her fired and right now, I wanna go to school"she said and he took the phone away from his ears before laughing hard and then moved back the phone closer.
"You can pick one out of the general maids"he said.
"No papa, we want another!"Millie the other twin shouted and he smiled, cause he was expecting her voice. She's the stubborn one out of the both of them.
"I can't get a new maid now"he said.
"Papa"they started crying and he sighed. They're surely gonna be the end of him.
"Fine, stop the tears. I'll bring her home once I'm coming back"he said and he could hear them laughing.
"Love you papa!"they said.
"You too"he smiled.
"Get a pretty one dad!"Minnie said.
"And she needs to have long hair and must be a good cook"Millie said.
"Okay, I'll do just that, papa is busy now"he said and the phone disconnected, they hanged up.
He sighed as he remembered the times he had with their mother.
"I miss you"he muttered as tears dropped.
