《His weakness ; Her strength》

Turning 21

A/N Hey guys! I know this chapter kind of sucks because it's just giving back ground, please trust the process because the story gets really good! Love you guys!

Davina's POV:
Today is my 21st birthday. Just like every other one of my birthdays, I plan to sit in my parents house all day. I just finished college so I dong have a job yet because I have been to busy. I finished early because I skipped 2nd and 3rd grade so I got out of college at 20 instead of at 22.

____________

It was about 1pm and I got a call from my dad. I rulectently picked up the phone and spoke.

Me-"Hey.." I said in a sullen tone

Dad- "Come down stairs we have to talk." He said in a demanding yet calm voice.

He hung up before I could answer. I got up from bed and looked in the mirror. I fixed my messy bun because it was practically falling out. I opened my door and headed down the stairs to find my dad waiting for me. He motioned his head in a signal to follow him. I followed him into his office with my hands folded behind me. He sat in his chair and pointed at the seat infront of him on the other side of his desk, telling me to sit down.

Dad-"listen, now that your 21.. you have to move out. I have took care of you for the past 21 years and now you must do it on your own. So, you have sixth months to find a job and move out."

Me- "What?! You can't be serious-"

Dad- "HEY! Fix your attitude before I fix it for you!"

Tears started to swell in my eyes.
Me- "does mom know?"

He stood up quickly and I flinched at his suddun movement.
Dad- "You listen to me little girl! You will not speak a word of this to your mother, she will just think that you did it all on your own!"

Tears fell from my eyes as I knew that I would probably end up on the streets.
Me-"okay.."

Dad-"Now get out of here!"
He sat back down

I didn't move because I was frightened

Dad-"Now!!!"

I slowly got up and took extremely small steps toward the door as a million thoughts raced through my head. I could hear his chair move and then seconds later I was being turned around by my father and then slapped and then soon pushed out the door.

After that I just went in my room and cried for the rest of the night.

I woke up the next morning to my mom shaking me awake with a cup of coffee in her hand.
"Wake up hun, we have to talk" she said in a whisper not trying to startle me.
"Whats up mum?" I said rubing my eye and sitting up.
She handed me the cup of coffee."I heard your dads plan, and I'm sorry he put his foot down" she said looking down the floor. "Its okay mom, its not your fault" I said then taking a sip of my coffee.

Mom-"I have some good news though"
Me-"yea, mum?"
Mom-"I found you a job."
Me-"oh really?"
Mom-"Yea, but..."
Me-"Always a but. What is it?"
Mom-"It involves the mafia.."
Me-"WHAT!mom no please you know how much I hate the mafia."
Mom-"I know hunny but it has good pay, and it will be better this way"
Me-"Ugh, fine. Whats the job"
Mom-"Babysitting, it was my first job aswell"
Me-"Well I love kids so it shouldn't be that bad"
Mom-" you start tomorrow"
Me-"WHAT?! SO SOON?!"
Mom-"They need babysitters"
Me-"Fine, whatever. Thanks for the help mom, I know you mean well"
Mom-"You'll love it hunny. Babysitting in the mafia was probably my favorite job I've ever had. I got to hear all the juicy details on what was going on in the mafia and I got to take care of cute kids all the time.
Me-"it sounds fun, I just don't like the mafia because of dad"
Mom-"not all mafias are like your fathers"
Me-"okay mum, I trust you. I'm gonna figure out what I'm gonna wear tmr for my first day"
Mom-"okay, ill leave you to it"
She walks out of my room and I sigh and take a big gulp of hot coffee which burns my mouth but I could care less.

___________

I just figured out my outfit for tomorrow and what I'm gonna do with my hair. It's 10:00 in the morning and I am soo tired even after finishing that cup of coffee. So I decide to do a little shopping for the kid I will be babysitting.

___________

I get back from shopping and I relize I haven't eaten all day but I'm not hungry so I brush it aside as I am looking to lose weight aswell. By now its around 5 o'clock and I decide to pack a bag for tmr so that I'm not rushing around before I leave. After that I decide to head down stairs an grab an apple to eat and then head back upstairs to listen to music.

I went to bed at around 9:00 so that I wasn't tired for tmr.
