Stephano'spov
I looked at the stuttering mess of a man in front of me. Does he really expect to accept their proposal when he can't even state his claim? Amateurs at work "Stop" I said finally having enough of this crap. Everyone froze and turned their heads towards me. I clasped my hands together, on the table in front of me "This isn't going to happen" I said standing up and adjusting my suit in the process "B..but-" "Did I stutter?" And they all of shook their heads no. Thought so
I walked out of there with Cynthia trailing behind me "When does the next meeting start?" "In about 3 minutes sir" Cynthia said while jogging a little so that she can catch up with me cause I was taking long strides. I slowed down a little bit so that she can settle for just walking quickly rather than jogging to keep up with me "Sir, what shall I order for Miss Isabella?" Cynthia asked and I small smile graced my face at the thought of Isa "Get her some fries, a chicken sandwich and a pink drink" "Right away sir"
As soon as she said that, we arrived at the next meeting room
Isabella's pov
It's been about two hours and I kinda give credit to myself for not falling asleep. I was reading the book I found that dad put in my bag currently. I put down the book to drink out of my water bottle when Miss Cynthia walked in with a package "Hey Isabella" She said walking over to me and set the package down on the table in front of me "Your father said I should give you this. Make sure you eat all of it ok?" I nodded and scribbled a thank you on my notebook and she said you're welcome
I ate lunch but didn't take the pink drink, quickly so that I could finish my book. It was called 'Nights of Rain and Stars' by Maeve Binchy. It was really good. I stopped at chapter seven and decided to take one of my gummy snacks. Hmmmm this one tastes kinda like watermelon. It was good though. I put my headphones on and connected it with my iPad. I put on a movie called The Fantastic Four.
I picked up the pink drink and took a little sip, giving it a taste test. It was good so I continued drinking it while I watched the movie. Close to the end of the movie I had finished the pink drink by then when I felt a hand being placed on my head. I set myself in a laying down position so that I would be comfortable when I would be watching the movie and also set the iPad against the couch so I was facing away from the door and therefore didn't know who put their hand on my head
I turned my head to the other side to look and the person was revealed to be.. DAD I quickly sat up while removing the headphones like the flash. I jumped on him and he caught me like he was expecting it I'm gonna get him when he least expects it (cue evil laughter) "I'm guessing you missed me" Dad said and I just nodded with my head still snuggled into his neck "I'm guessing that's yes" And I nodded again while staying in my comfy position "I'm soo good at guessing right?" He asked me and I nodded giggling and he chuckled
He set me back on the couch so that I was looking directly at him "Did you get some sleep?" He asked me and I shook my head. I reached over to my notebook and wrote: 'I wanted to be awake when you came back' I showed it to him and he shook his head while letting out a sigh. I lowered my gaze to the marble floors and dad just gently took my chin and made me look at him
"I'm not angry Isa. I just wish you would have slept a little. You must be tired now" Dad said with a soft voice. It made my heart feel warm "Okay pack up your stuff Isa. Let's go"
Time skip to house
We got home and dad went straight to making dinner. I helped him to get the ingredients and vegetables out of the cupboards that I could reach and from the fridge. I stood on my tippy toes so that I could try and see what dad was doing over the huge kitchen slab. Why does everything in this house have to be huge?
Dad made chicken alfredo pasta and it was soo good. Then after dinner dad said to get ready for bed cause honestly keeping my eyes open was a real job. I went up to my room and took a quick bath that woke me up little. After my bath I brushed my teeth and changed into this

I rubbed some lotion on my hands and feet so that it can will be moisturized. Then I put my socks on and then walked over to dad's room. I walked in without knocking because I can and I did. I saw dad in bed already, he was on his phone. I climbed up onto the bed and snuggled up next to him. He put his arm around me and kissed my forehead. I felt my eyes dropping "Go to sleep Isa" I heard dad say before I closed my eyes completely
---------------------------------------
