troubled teen Eli "Hawk" with violent and dangerous tendencies, sparks up something out of the ordinary with guarded up Emialia
What troubles or peace might this encounter bring both school girl and fighter?
After spending the whole day with my dad relaxing on a winter afternoon. Night quickly came through ending up with us cooking outside in our black stone.
"Mia Mia Mia, what am I gonna do without you?" My dad slides my plate in the circle garden table
"What's that supposed to mean?" I laugh nervously at his random comment
"Oh just thinking about when you leave to college, you're growing so fast" My dad scoots his seat in placing his towel on his lap
"The day I leave won't be anytime soon, we got enough time" I grab my utensils laying down on the table besides my plate and cup
"Your mother would have been so proud, you're just like her..graduating early, have a passion for writ-" I cut off my dad before he finishes his sentence
"Why did she choose to open a restaurant" I pick at my food
"Well sweetheart, she was a woman with many dreams..with a family like hers well it was either staying in the business of cooking and staying with us or continue her writing career and leaving us to go on her many retreats" My dad explained with pauses in between almost every word, the love he has or had for my mother sounds so passionate it reminds me of all the books i've read.
There love can be written in a book that i'd read till time runs out.
"She should have just picked writing since she did end up leaving us" I say quietly, the pain I have to endure not being with her.
My dad is an amazing father and mother figure but wanting my mother next to me is no crime. My dads cooking was somewhat of a hazard for a long minute. None of my grandmothers let him live in peace when my mom died, although my grandma Mia was so patient with him unlike grandma Lia and Emily.. hence why I prefer Mia as my nickname rather than Emmy or Mimi.
"Emialia enough" My dad says furiously lightly slamming his fists on the table looking dead into my eyes disappointed I look down at my food playing around with it, with my fork.
"You're grounded, no going on for this week" He cuts through his steak while he says strictly
"What? No!" I get defensive remembering I had made plans with Eli
"Emialia I won't repeat myself" My dad says while eating his food
"Eat your food it'll get cold"
I start to quickly shove the food in my mouth for me to be dismissed and get on a phone call with Sam and Moon as soon as possible. I sneak my phone between my legs under the table texting the group chat.
