"Why on earth would I stalk you?" He cocks a brow at me.
This cocky fucker.
"How would I know?" This conversation is getting nowhere. It only exhausted and annoyed me.
"You should have checked the road properly before exhibiting the act...

"Thanks Dad. The house is everything I asked for." He blows me a kiss through the phone, making me laugh.
"Roger's ass is saved." He states matter-of-factly.
"It really is." A chuckle leaves my lips.
We have been on face-time for about 20 minutes now. My Dad demanded to have a visual tour around my house, even if it's from a smaller view. He's comfortably seated in his office, so it's more easier for him to see spots I show him.
"How's work?" I ask walking to the kitchen when I was done with the house tour.
"Everything is fine." He sighs. He doesn't look fine.
"Are you okay Dad?" He looks extremely tired but he will never admit it. He's someone who doesn't show or tell people about his weaknesses.
I inherited that from him.
"I am Skylar." He tries to assure me but I know better.
"No you're not. You honestly look 10 times older than your age." He laughs.
"It's not your job to worry about me. I am really fine." I don't believe him but I let it go, just this once.
"Take some time off. Go on a vacation and just relax." He only smiles in response. Even if he knows I'm not the affectionate type, he knows I'm still concerned and all I want is for him to be okay.
"I will." He agrees before calling someone with the telephone in his office.
"Mrs Carlos, I'd like you to include vacation on my schedules." He says to the person over the phone, who I suppose is his assistant.
"Happy now? " I nod with a wide smile.
"Okay I gotta go. Love you, bye." He rushes out.
"Love you too." He ends the call and I drop my phone on the Island.
My stomach growls loudly. I haven't eaten a proper meal for days, might as well make one myself. I'm pretty good at cooking, so it's an easy task.
"What should I prepare?" I tap my cheeks.
I crave a meat related meal, so I decide on mashed potatoes and fried chicken. My tummy grumbles again just at the thought of it.
I walk to the refrigerator which is now stocked with different food items I didn't even know existed. I got all the food items and ingredients I need, but the only thing I don't see is the chicken. I search thoroughly for it but there's no chicken.
I have my fridge stocked but the one thing I need isn't there.
