3 months ago...
Nervousness filled my body as i got closer to my father's office. While passing every hallway, i kept thinking about what he's going to talk to me about. Is it something good or bad? I shook my head as i knocked on his door.
"Come in" i heard him say
I opened the door and scanned the room.
"Oh, take a seat my little daughter" he smiled
I sat in the chair next to his desk. For some reasons, i can feel that I won't like what he's going to say to me.
"So father... why do you want to see me here?"
"Well i have to talk to you about something" my father announced as he took a sip of his coffee
"Sure, go ahead" i nodded
"You know how your mother got killed from few years ago, right? So i've been thinking and i made my decision. When summer starts... and when you finish your first year of law... i'm sending you to Paris. You know... Your boyfriend will be there and you can live safely-" i interrupted him
"No father, i am not going to Paris. You know all my friends, and family are here, everything i want is here!" I answered
"Valentina, there's no discussion. I said, i made my decision" My father affirmed
"Why are you doing this?" I asked
"Im trying to protect you!"
I stood in front of him trying to understand what he's saying. At the moment, my father was making no sense. It has been 4 years since my mother died. Why did he take that decision now?
"You can't tell anyone about this, Okay? That's why i told you to come here so no one can hear us." He smiled and continued "it's for your own good, i promise"
Anger took over me so i held the vase of flowers on his desk and threw it on the floor.
"Bullshit." I said as i bursted out of his office.
The worst part of this all is that i am spending my summer in Paris with my "boyfriend" who my dad forced me to date because he also thought it's for my own good. Well, i guess we'll have fun this summer... Won't we?
