The Non-Existent Love ||L.T.||

Not Again

Candice's POV

"Go grab your bags now," Dad said. It's past 10 pm and we are still in the shop. "Yes dad." I replied rolling my eyes. Seriously does he need to say everything like I'm some sort of robot?

"Uncle Harry you do know that I live in a hotel right?" Zayn spoke. Zayn was fixing his bag and Dad turned to look at him.

"Zayn dear, based on your tone it seems that you want to live with us." Daddry smirks at Zayn. "I do! Mum and Dad are not here. Hotels are expensive! And I get bored easily without Candice!" Zayn whines. "Stop acting like a kid you're turning 24 Zayn." Dad replied.

"Yeah dad! Can Zayn live with us please please!" I begged Daddry. Since you go to the same workplace, fine." Dad finally agreed. "YES!!!" Me and Zayn said in unison and did our handshake.

Dad weirdly stared at us because we still act so childish. But you can do anything weird with your bestfriend, without making anything awkward.

"Don't do anything that will make me mad. You both know what I mean." Dad reprimanded. Me and Zayn looked at each other, then laughed. We wouldn't do anything like, the thing because were bestfriends.

"Uncle Harry don't you worry I don't fancy Candice she is not my type, she is ugly. Zayn joked.

"Douche!" I yelled as I hit Zayn playfully. "Well your not my type either Zayn, but your handsome." I told him. "See that?? I'm so good to you but your mean to me," I added.

Daddry just kept on laughing the whole time. Does he find this funny? "I was just kidding Candice your not ugly I don't make bestfriends with ugly people." Zayn said. I just clapped my hands "Wow look who's talking".

We were all in car when I realized I left my phone beside the cash register. Good thing Dad was just about to start the car. "Daddry! I forgot my phone! I have to go back." I said.

"Okay sure but be fast." Dad replied as he threw the keys to me.

I went out of the car and opened the door. Woah it's pretty dark here. Okay, I shouldn't be scared. The cash register is pretty far away from the door considering this shop is huge. I opened a single light, and it was able to light up some part near the cash register.

I just walked calmy going there and grabbed my phone. It had some notifications in it, but I decided to check it later. I was about to go to the glass door but then my phone beeped, and I flinched.

I sighed seeing that dad had just texted me telling me to lock the door in the back. Crap is he serious?? That's too far and ugh. I'm starting to get scared I should have told Zayn to come with me.

Anyways I have no choice unless I want some thief to get inside and steal all the balls. I opened the other door leading to the back. I just opened the flashlight of my phone trying to find another switch. I found one, and opened it.

When I opened it it had a spark and the lightbulb had a cracking sound. It's a busted lightbulb. Dammit it's so dark and I only have a phone with a flashlight on.

Am I in a set of a horror movie? I brisk-walked and looked around and finally I saw the door. I got a padlock in the side and locked it. I turned around and saw a man.

"Daddry? Zayn?" I asked. No replies. The man was standing in the door leading to the cash registers and the shop. I was actually in the storage room. I can't much see him, only a shadow from the light I opened near the cashier's area.

"Daddry?? Zayn??" I asked much louder. Still no replies. I was starting to get goosebumps right now and decided to lift my phone up so I can light the guy with the flashlight in my phone. I slowly put it up, until I got to light him.
