Today was their first day. Yes you had accepted your fathers offers.
You walked along the shiny, black tiled floors, your heels click-clacking with every step. You passes the black doors, the black walls-literally everything was black. And it wasn't like you hadn't been here before. You would often watch you're father work, but when you'd hear the screams of pain coming from the cellar, you were always told that they were haunted. Boy were they wrong.
Flashback
"Dad, DAD".
"You accept?"
You just nodded.
"Good come on sweetheart let's go".
End of flashback
Yes it could be a hasty decision. Or it could be the making of you. As you reached the door, you took a deep breath and opened it. Time to put your confident face on.
"Ah sweetheart, come sit here," your father patted on the chair next to him.
You sat down and got yourself comfortable.
"So? Where are the papers?"
You suddenly look up to see brown eyes staring at your father. Brunette hair. Smart suit. Shiny shoes. And that smile. It was the same guy from the club.
"I'm sorry I don't think we've been introduced". He says, offering his hand to shake.
"Ah yes. Tom, meet my daughter Y/N. Y/N this is Tom he-"
"Oh I know who he is," you smile sweetly and decline the handshake," I believe he tried to blow me up".

"Uhh...."
"ScArEd?" You mock his tone from that night.
He looked at you angrily. Frustrated, he ran his hand through his hair and muttered a "whatever".
Your father however laughed it off.
"Ahh bad blood? I like it. But Y/N we are doing business with Tom so I will need you to put you're differences aside and-"
"Wait we're doing business with THAT dick? Honestly Dad out of all the dodgy men in the world you picked HIM".
"Yes. Now sit your ass down if you still want to be a part of this".
Annoyed, you sat down. You decided that whatever was to happen you'd just mess around with Tom. Who said you couldn't do business AND mess with men at the same time?
"-so that must conclude our meeting today. We'll meet again this Friday. Y/N will show you out".
"Not bloody likely".
"Y/N!"
"Fine, he seemed dumb enough to blow up an amazing woman I can understand why he can't find the fuckin exit."
You stood up and made your way outside, Tom following closely behind. When you made it towards the car he opened the door and said,
"It was nice seeing you beautiful".
"Beautiful lady has a name"
"Nah I'd rather call you beautiful"
You rolled your eyes. Another man who didn't have the decency to call you by your REAL name.
"So when will we see each other again beautiful?"
"Till the day I finally burn water".
"Well then I'll be looking forward to that day".
You shook your head and was about to go back inside when Tom grabbed your arm.
"Hey look I'm sorry all right. You know, for nearly blowing you up. I didn't want to it's just my job". He stuttered slightly and swallowed hard
You were a little taken aback. He must have swallowed a lot of pride to apologise to you.
"Don't worry. As you can see I'm perfectly fine. Let's just forget about it yeah?"
"Yeah that'd be nice. So you're not upset?"
"I might need therapy but I'm sure I'll pull through." The sarcasm was practically dripping and Tom clearly noticed it.
"All's well then. I'd be a lot more disappointed. One less beautiful girl in the world." He got into the car and it drove off.
As you got inside, you were met with your father.
"Why are you smiling like that?" He questioned.
You didn't know that you had been smiling widely when you got inside.
"Uh no reason. No reason at all".
"I'm warning you Y/N. He may be handsome and charming but don't get too attached".
"I won't". You rolled your eyes.
"Oh really now? Because it seems that every boy you befriend seems to end up being your 3 week boyfriend doesn't he? Yeah you don't think I know about that?"
"Dad please just let it go. Why are you always having a go at me?"
"Why? Because you need to get your shit together!"
" I will Dad. With this I will".
He just sighs.
"You know I don't know Y/N. I took a chance on you in this mob because you're my first born and I trust you the most. But now I think I should take on Vanessa instead".
When he said that you felt tears to your eyes. Nothing ever made you cry, nothing, but when he compared you to that bitch you just felt like, a failure. Someone who wasn't cared about. Just a nobody- a play girl.
You stormed off to your room and changed into comfortable clothing and fell asleep. You had never felt so much hate for anyone before.
