The Dawn of Tomorrow [PAUSE]

Chapter 5

Isaac POV

I'm here standing in between my father and my former maid, holding her is making me lose concentration.

Her curvaceous body fits perfectly against mine.

"Are you sure, right now you seem really comfortable in such warm embrace." He said, I realize that I was the one who wouldn't let go.

She pushes me away, she whips her tears away and fix her hair. Despite her melt down, She still remain beautiful. My hand have it's own mind of itself even though she parted I seem to not let go. I slowly retract my hand away.

"Isabella, are you okay?" She lift her head at the mention of her name. She nodded in response.

We're completely ignoring his existence for the moment. Making her cry for nothing, he'd do anything to achieve whatever he wants, no matter the price or way. He gets what he wants.

"Isabella I think it's time for you to leave, me and your employer need to talk privately. And tell Marguarita my salutation for me dear."

She nods and leaves. Now it's just me and him. We haven't been on good terms ever since mom dead. But we never go on that subject, he's says it's a highly sensitive subject for his heart. He can't face the fact she's gone.

"Isaac, son listen to me for a moment."

"No i'm tired of listening to you the only thing I've been doing is listening to you. I was force to go to that hell hole, did I have a choice...hell no! 7 months without contact, 7 god damn months without you coming to visit! 7 months of solitude, no one but myself. What do you think I've been doing? Just listening to you!"

Everything I was holding inside burst in a mere second. It was like a dam who was holding itself with one crack, one crake away from crumbling.

My father was the last droplets. All it took is one drop and will it tips off. Everything I was holding inside I lash it all at him.

"Is that much better? How does it feel to let all go. I'm listening let everything out. Lose yourself."

"You know what screw you." It was just a joke for him always preoccupied of himself.

"Isaac! It was tough for me too. I went through the seventh stage of grief. I was shocked and I denied her death. I went through pain, guilt because I can't raise you right I realized I'm nothing without her. And I was mad at myself then I was lonely and depressed. So I took interest in life again and reconstructed myself. Finally Acceptance and hope for you and Isabella."

"Hope for me and Isabella."I repeat in disagreement." think whatever you want. It's not happening."

"Isaac listen to me Amelia want the best for you, she would have wanted that. I know I can't just decide whoever you love but denial overshadows the truth when you don't want to believe something that's right in front of you it can misguided you."

I listen to every word he says. I don't know what to say. When my father is serious he cuts into deep, he knows the truth behind everything ugly.

" I'm not staying for long." Changing the subject.

"Oh I know, I suggest some great housing to my real estate, George.
You can choose anywhere as long you have someone to accompany you."

Of course he knew already. And I know who he's talking about.

I walk out but I stop midway from the stairs, it was raining outside. Shit Bella she must be soaking outside I don't even think she has an umbrella. I sprint skip some steps by two.
