After reading fathers letter, I went to the drawer to pull out a beautiful grey sundress and some grey heels which I then laid out onto my bed. I rushed into the bathroom and washed my hair as I listened to Cypress Hill (one of my all time favourite bands!!). Once I came out the bathroom, I dried myself off and brushed out my hair. When my hair was only a little bit damp, I changed into the clothes my dad got me:

After changing, I scrunched my fingers through my L/H H/C hair in an attempt to try and make it slightly curly. I was about to put on my make up when I remembered that dad mentioned in his letter that Jed would help me out with make up. With that in mind, I grabbed my make up bag and made my way to dad and Jed's room.

On the way to Jed's room, I received a message from one of my mates with a photo attached of my boyfriend Jamie kissing someone else and leaving another girls house. I decided not to pay much attention to it and ignore Jamie for now. It wasn't surprising. I sent him a quick text to let him know that I knew about his dirty affairs. I won't let that ruin my time with seeing dad though

I was about to knock on the door, when I suddenly heard soft cry's from inside the room. Is she okay? Standing there for what felt like hours, I shakily knocked on the door. After a few seconds, she slightly cried out "Just a minute". I could then hear a slight rattle as if she was taking pills maybe? A few seconds later, she told me to come in so I pulled the door handle and opened the door. When Jed saw me, she let out a slight sigh of relief

"Hey lovely, I thought you were your father" Jed smiled to which I smiled back... I always thought she was a great woman and she seemed to make dad really happy, but she was just like me and Danny. Just like us, she had no real clue on what dad does for a living. I know he says it's a private business with buying and selling agricultural equipment, but you don't make millions without doing something a little shady

"Hey Jed. I was wondering if you could help me with my make up since we're all going out for dinner tonight?" I asked

"Y/N, you already look lovely but sure, I'll help you. Just sit here opposite me" Jed replied as she patted the edge of the bed, indicating for me to sit down. I took the seat on the edge of the bed as she helped me with my mascara, eye shadow and eyeliner. Afterwards, I helped Jed pick out an outfit for tonight and we began talking about what we were going to eat for dinner. Just as I was talking about my Uni work, there was a small knock on my door which I recognised instantly. Danny

"Yes?" Jed asked. Danny then pushed the door open looking every smart in his beige trousers, pink polo shirt and navy blazer. I almost teared up at the sight of my little brother... he looked so handsome and I was so proud of him. Danny smiled at the two of us

"Dad said he was going to be a while so we were going to stay here and Frisky was going to take Y/N to the restaurant early to surprise dad!" Danny exclaimed. he seemed really excited about this whole plan of surprising my dad. I got up and gave Jed a hug goodbye before leaving with Danny. I honestly wished Jed was my mother... she took such good care of me and Danny and she actually cared if we were going through something. Mine and Danny's biological mother was just a woman who used us as an excuse to milk money out of my father. Danny and I walked up to the boats and I said goodbye to Danny once Frisky came down to the boats to meet me. The trip to the restaurant was that of a pleasant one. Frisky and I, much like earlier with Corky, had a really nice conversation about how dad would react when he sees me at the restaurant. Apparently they called him and told him I was going to be coming to the Villa a few days late. It comforted me to hear that he sounded disappointed that I wouldn't be there but we all knew he'd be delighted to see me there today

Once we got to the restaurant, Frisky led me to the seats down from dads seat at the head of the table and got me a glass of water along with a little something to snack on while I wait for everyone else. Frisky went back to the Villa to meet my dad so he doesn't get suspicious of Frisky. He never leaves the Villa without telling father or Corky before hand. A few hours passed and a message came up from Corky:

I smiled as I read the message Corky sent me. I love Corky's sense of humour and how he can be really chill and fun with Danny and I, despite the fact Danny's only 7 and I'm 10 years older but nearly 11 since I'm nearly 18. I quickly texted him back before waiting for my dad and his clan:
