Broken

Chapter Fourteen

"Daddy!" I yelled and pounced at my father. His hugs always were painful but I loved them. He squeezed me tight in his arms.

"My little porcelain, how have you been?" he asked his smile was broad and toothy.

"I have been better. Papa you're crushing my bones." I whispered I really couldn't breathe. He let me down and I looked up at his face he was of age but he looked really young to me.

"Sorry." He apologized.

"Where is Daniel?" I asked.

"He will be here soon he just had to pick up something." He explained. I loved my family but due to certain circumstances I am here.

"Okay." His driver took the bags from the car and we made our way to the house.

"So your mother said you called and you're doing gymnastics?" We were in the house on the couch.

"Yes, but it's for money for orphans and homeless people." I explained to him, if it wasn't for a good cause I wouldn't do it.

"You're the best." In his eyes I was still perfect but I wasn't and he just wouldn't stop believing it.

"So how's business?" I asked to change the topic of our conversation.

"Business is good, had a little downfall as you know last year but the percentages have gone sky high now. We made more money last month than we did in December." He explained his business was beyond important to him, he had started from nothing and now he had more money than he could manage and that just gave me and idea.

"Glad you said that, I have a brilliant idea you could donate money or anything that's useful to the orphanage and the homeless shelter. The prize money isn't that much they are going to need more, children are going to need toys, clothes and other necessities. The homeless shelter could even expand and we could get other celebrities and people that have too much money to donate for this small cause." I was pacing back and forth and he was looking at me with shock.

"So you're passionate about this?" he asked with a smile.

"Yes I mean I'm here so I might as well do some good." I shrugged.

"I'll see what I can do." He said looking around the house.

"So is mom okay?" I asked, he looked a little surprised that I asked about her seeing that we weren't on the same page.

"She's really busy and she's sorry she couldn't be here." He apologized for her.

"Yea right. So what did she send?" I asked.

"I really don't know, she said that a few feminine things were in it and I just didn't bother to look." The thought of feminine products grossed them out. I dug through the bag and dragged out the leather clothes. I looked at him and he had a look of confusion on his face.

"I'm having a party here Saturday and it's a costume one so I'm making costumes for my friends and I." I let out.

"I hope they aren't revealing." He warned.

"You know they are and you won't be here to disapprove, you will get over it Dad." I told him, come on I do what I feel these days and I have no parents here to tell me what to do.

"Oh Daniella." He sighed.

"You can't win this one." I smiled at him.

"You smiled." He said with shock. When I was back in LA I hardly smiled I mostly smirked my smiles were rare.

"Yes I did." I liked smiling.

"It's only been a few weeks and you look so different than back home." He said examining me.
