Becoming Queen

Chapter 49: Future

Sofia

"Hey, how's my beautiful Princess".

Smiling at the sound of my dad's voice on the other end of the phone, I sat on the kitchen counter swinging my legs waiting for the cookies to bake in the oven.

"Great thanks" I smiled waiting for the perfect moment to give my dad a heart attack.

"Excellent. I hope the ball went well. No man touched you or stared at my little girl?" his voice grew dark and menacing.

Time to get my own payback.

"Oh all the men stared at me and I even went back to my hotel room with 5 men. It was an all you can eat buffet" I smirked listening to him lose his mind.

"SOFIA ROSE HENDRICKS!!!!" he roared into the end of his phone.

Listening to him put the phone down, I smirked in amusement as I listened to him smash and trash his office.

"ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME?! DO YOU WANT ME TO DIE FROM A HEART ATTACK" he seethed out with rage.

"What's wrong honey?" I heard mum ask in obvious concern to dad's rage.

"Instead of securing business, she's securing a damn STD in Italy. 5 men, are you out of your fucking mind????" dad cursed out probably on the verge of having an actual heart attack.

Listening to mum laugh, I suddenly froze hearing a loud thump and the phone fall to the ground. 

"H-Hello?" I muttered out nervously.

Listening to a pair of heels click against the wooden floor of my dad's office, I listened attentively as mum picked up the phone near breathless from laughter.

"Mum, is dad alright?" I asked in a state of panic, but mum couldn't answer. She was completely breathless with laughter.

"H-He, haha. Your father fainted at your comment. He's alright, but he's white as a ghost glaring at me as we speak. I never thought I'd see the day. How you doing baby? Did you bump your head? Do you need an ice pack?" mum laughed loudly as dad snatched the phone out of her hand.

"And by the way, yes Sofia!! Get it girl" mum cheered loudly only worsening dad's rage.

"Shut it you. You're gonna get it bad tonight" dad snapped at mum with a gross innuendo.

"Damn it you old fool, do you honestly think I'd sleep with 5 random men when I have discovered the love of my life alive in Italy. Oh, and I found out you knew all along and didn't tell me!! Karma's a bitch, dad".

Suddenly the phone line went deadly silent except the sound of my dad's shallow breathing.

"Baby" he sighed sadly acting as he hadn't just acted out in rage.

"He asked me not to. He wanted to surprise you" dad's voice quietened into a soft tone.

"Seems to be an ongoing thing. Daddy, you knew how broken I was over him. I understand you were put in a situation, but I wish you had told me to save me all those weeks I cried over him. Believe me, I am mad at him for him making you keep it a secret, but I am so glad he's back in my life".

I was mad at my dad, but in reality he was innocent in this. But I was too overcome in happiness to hold grudges.

"I'm sorry sweetheart. And so am I. He makes you happy and treats you like a princess" dad's voice got higher and I knew he was smiling like an idiot.

Pft, yeah, treats me like a Princess. More like treats me like his slut, but I like it though.

"He does and I love him. And when we come home, there's some things we need to discuss" I muttered into the phone as I jumped off the counter and bent down to check on the cookies.
