Chapter I

C H A P T E R 1 : ONLY THE BEGINNING

Sofie Malone-

Today feels like shit.

It's the day my father died, in his sleep. I still remember the day as if it was embedded in my brain and I couldn't forget. The pain I felt the next morning when my mother told me he passed away, yet I still jumped on him to tell him 'Good morning' thinking it was a harmless little joke.

Looking at it now though, why did I think it was a joke?

 -Cuz you were freaking 5 years old and was hoping he wasn't dead.

Looky here, 20 years later, I got my Art Curator thing going, -an underground one.

Im rich, love paintings, all the unspoken words hidden in the paintings. All the feelings.

I have everything. I don't need anyone.

I think love is just lust misspelled.

Love wont get you anywhere. Its all fake, the man will always end up leaving you in the end. One way or the other, it happens.

But ofcourse, that's not what mother thinks. She keeps on telling me to get married.

'Your gonna be lonely when your old. Do you want to be lonely?' 

God I already hear her. And as always, I gotta break it down for her every time that its not gonna happen. 

To be honest, fucking is better. 

But anywho, I need to go to the graveyard, I already got the flowers ready from a flowershop nearby. For my father.

My phone then rings, I look at the caller.

INCOMING CALL

Nora <3

Nora is my best friend. Ive known her since we were kids, so yes a pretty damn long time. Shes been there for me when my fathers 'incident' happened, and has always. She helped me get to where I am now. 

And yes, she is aware of the underground stuff I do.

I quickly answer her call and put it up to my ear.

"SOFIEEE ANSWER YOUR DA-" Oh my God. 

She paused.

"Oh you answered!"  Seriously.

"Yes I did lol, what you need? Kinda in a hurry girl, don't worry though Ill go to your place later, Im just about to get on the road for my uhm- the graveyard."

"Oh shit my bad, you need me? I'll make this quick, I got another auction for you, its tomorrow at uh 6 PM one, its super elegant like a gala, so go shopping later for a dress. You'll be needing one! Ill explain the details more later when you come by. I don't wanna hold you off. Go see your dad, say hi to him for me! Love you babes!" She rambled.

My heart immediately warmed up for her, shes always been like this with me. Aaand she always tells me about the main events I go to.

I laughed. "Yeah yeah, love you too. Well talk more later. Thank you!" I replied and hung up the phone.

I walked towards my coffee table, grabbed my bag, keys and phone and walk out. Shutting the door and locking it behind me. 

After putting on music in the speakers in my car for around 10 ish minutes, I'm here. I get out of the car in silence, and walking towards the grass where all the gravestones are at. 

I walk not so far from the parking lot to find my fathers gravestone.

See, this is where i get on my knees and cry. But I honestly don't cry. He's an exception though.

I stopped when I was a few years of age, after his death.

I place the flowers on the vase on the side of the stone, and start crying silently. Telling him everything I wished I had the chance to with him growing up by my side.

"Mother wants me to marry, but I honestly don't want to. Men just leave you in the end, one way or the other.

* * *

After 1 full hour or talking to him, I get back in the car and wipe my tears away carefully, trying not to ruin my makeup in the process. 

I text Nora, in case shes busy and wait for her to answer.

"Hey boo, Im out, going to your place, now."

I get an immediate response.

"Alright! See you in 10, drive safe <3"

I smile and heart the message, and put the phone down driving myself to her place.

I walk to the door, taking out the key and coming in the house.

I'm her best friend. Ofcourse I can.

"Nora!" I yell out, dragging out the 'a'.

"Living room!" She responds. I drop my bag in the couch after walking over to her. There I saw her, with a Macbook in hand, glasses sitting on her nose and her hair put up in a messy bun.

When she saw me, she put the MacBook down, and ran towards me. Hugging me with so much force, almost dragging me down straight to the floor.

Atleast I could say, 'The floor looked lonely, so I wanted to hug it'. I laugh mentally at the thought, shaking it away and hugging her back.

After some talking, we went back to the sofa, she put some pillows to get comfortable and brought the MacBook in front of her, sitting on her lap and turned on the brightness so I could see better. We started talking about the auction she informed me about earlier.

"Okay so, there's this auction, its in some rich guys mansion, all you gotta do is give them your name and dress up pretty. After that, you should be good. Its around 6 PM. All the mafia shit is gonna be there, so I prefer you bring your blades. It would be best." 

Its crazy how she can talk about this like it it was normal.

-Normal to you.

Point made.

After laughing at some jokes we were making, it was getting pretty dark so I started saying goodbye.

"Alright ima hit the sack I am tired. Plus i gotta go dress shopping tomorrow for tomorrow." I chuckle and start stretching out my arms.

"What, You haven't gotten dress shopping?!"  

Shocker.

"Okay call me when you get up, we're going dress shopping as soon as your ready!" She yells. 

"Got it boss!" I yell bac and we both laugh together before I close the door.

* * *

When I get home, I get into my Pj's and hit straight to bed. The only lighting in the room was the TV that I had turned on. 

I clicked on some random news thing and fell asleep before I knew it.

Only one thing remained on my mind.

'Tomorrow was going to be a loong day.'
