Olympia P.O.V
"Heels down." My mother instructs me, as the slow rhythm of my horse walks around the arena.
"They are." I argue back.
"No they're not, look." I look down and my heels weren't down "told you".
"Ugh." I groan making my mother chuckle while shaking my head. After a few strides of trot over poles we hear the house phone go off.
"Miles ! Could you get that for me." my mother yells to him as he sweeps the yard.
"Yes Mrs Hallon." Miles yells back. He jogs into the house and soon the phone stops.
"That's enough for today, your father is late" I get of fmy dark brown horse with a black tail and mane, Sherlock. I lead him back into his stable from the arena and take off his saddle and bridal and store them. I give him a bright orange carrot and he ate it quickly. Shutting the stable door I hear a cry from the kitchen, my mother. Sprinting into the kitchen I come face to face with Miles hugging my mother tightly.
"Mrs Hallon I'm so sorry." Miles says
"Mother what's going on ?" I ask sitting next to her on the bench opposite the kitchen table.
"Your f..fa...father g..g..got sh..ot" My mother cries. Tears swell up and I feel like I'm going to be sick.
"Is he ok ?" I ask, even though a part of me is telling me, he's dead. Don't say that.
"No, he ..... died immediately. He got shot in the head" My mother cries. I can't remember what happens next but my head feels dizzy, black spots forming in front of my eyes and blackness takes over.
***
Above me is my bedroom dim light, I blink a few times and my vision comes back, Miles is next to me holding my hand tightly. Then the feelings come at me like a charging Bull then hit me like a slap to the face by a brick. My father is dead. He will never come back. He wont see me grow up. He'll never be there for me to walk me down the aisle. He'll never be able to see his grand kid. Share books with me. Love me. Be there when a boy breaks my heart. He's dead.
"Miles" I sob. I sling my arms round his waist and burry my head in his stomach.
"I'm so sorry baby." Miles mummers on the top of my head
"Who would do this ?"
"I don't know baby. The police are coming over soon.
"He never deserved this." I sob.
"I know nobody deserves to be shot espically your father." Miles says.
"I want to take his place." I sob.
Miles takes my arms off his waist and puts his hands on either side of my face "Olympia don't you ever say tht agian. I don't know what would happen to me if you died" Miles sternly says
"I want him here with me, to tell me it's alright that there is no need to cry and worry." By this time tears are sprinting down my face
"Dont cry" Miles coos as I bury my face in the crooked his neck "I'm going to be there for you every step of the way, I will support you, I will work my ass off for you. I will never leave you." Miles says.
"Thank you Miles." I say.
"I love you Olympia, just keep thinking that." Miles said.
"I love you to." I cry, I place my lips on his and he immediately kisses me. Until there's a knock at the door then followed by shuffling of feet and a few voices one I recognise as my mother but the other two are unfamiliar.
"How long was I out ?" I ask rubbing my head.
"Almost the entire day" Miles informs me "The police are here" Miles informs me "Here I'll help you up" he rips the blanket from me, he hooks his arm round the bend in my knee and one around my waist. Argh I hate being picked up. I cling onto him by hooking my arm round his neck tightly like a baby Lemur tightly grasping it's mother. He carries me down the hall until we get to the kitchen. He gently sets me down on my feet as the policemen ask my mother questions about my father.
"Please no more questions, I just want to know what happened to my husband." My mother cries.
"Of course Mrs Hallon." The officer says.
"Can I help you officers ?" I ask. They turn around to meet me. Twins. Young hot twins. Both have sun kissed blond hair, dazzling blue eyes and sharp features. They must be 24 or 25 years old, young and handsome.
"Ah yes Miss Hallon we were just asking your mother questions" Twin one says "thank you for your time Mrs Hallon."
"I want to know what happend to my father, why was he shot ?" I cry sitting next to my mum with Miles putting his arm around my shoulder. He officer sighs and sits down opposite us from across the table just like his twin.
"We don't know who shot your father but we do know why he was shot." Twin 2 explains.
"He was shot in London." Twin one says. London. Why would he be in London ?
"He was in London ?" My mother asks.
"What did your father do ?" Twin 1 asks.
"He was a farrier." I explain.
"Are you sure ? He didn't mention anything about gangs or London." Twin 2 asks. I knew there was gangs in London everyone knew that it was the top places for gangs. I knew there are four gangs the Lions, Snakes, Eagels and the Sharks, they were vicious.
"No never." I point out, the two officers lock eyes with each other quickly and look back. Something flickers behind twin 2 eyes.
"Well it seems that your dad was involved in gang work." Twin 1 says.
"You're lying he would never, he hates violence." my mother points out crying.
"We believe he was delivering money and a database to London's top gang the Eagles." Twin 2 explains.
"A database ?" I question.
"We don't know what the database is Miss Hallon." Twin 1 says.
"Please just call me Olympia" I Say. The twins lock eyes with each other and talk to each other through their eyes. I crease my eyebrows, they're hiding something "your hiding something" I point out.
"Olympia !" my mother snaps.
"I assure you we have told you everything" Twin 2 says. I crease my eyebrows at both of them but just give up by giving them a huff "thank you for your time Mrs and Miss Hallon I'm sure we'll meet again" Twin 1 says, standing up with his other twin. They shake hands and exit our house, shutting the door behind them.
"I can't believe my own husband didn't tell us about his actual work." My mum cries.
"He probably did it to protect you." Miles soothingly says rubbing my mums back.
"Adam was never like that he hated violence and guns" my mother sobs stuffing her face in her hands. I sit next to her and start crying on her shoulder.
"Do you think another gang killed him ?" I question, they both look at me "they said something about a database and money didn't they so it's bound to be another gang" I say.
"Hold on Sherlock we can't just jump to conclusions." Miles said.
"I know but it might be a possibility." I say.
"Look we'll discuss this in the morning we'd better get to sleep. Night Miles I'll see you in the morning " My mum say standing up, she kisses my cheek and walks own the hall and into her room. Soon I hear sobs.
"I'll help you get through this." Miles promises me.
"Thank you." I place my lips on his and wrap my arms round the back of his neck.
"I think we should stop I don't want your mother walking in on us making out." Miles mummers breaking the kiss.
"Fine then, I'll see ya tommorow then." I give him a quick kiss and he leaves me shutting the door behind him. I sigh and walk like a Zombie up to my room. After putting my PJs on I slump into bed and silently cry. My father is dead. What do I do now ? Is there any point in living ? You have Miles and mother, I scold myself mentally. Few minutes later my mother walks in.
"Can I sleep in here, everything in there reminds me of him." my mother yawns
"Sure" I say, she scoots next to me. Soon we fall into an endless sleep after crying together.
