I swiftly turned around, my heart dropping down to the pit of my stomach out of ambition. My body reacting quicker than my mind, stood there for a moment processing what was happening and who had just called my name.
Once i have caught up with my surroundings, I observe my approacher. Typically, it was Isaiah. Fantastic... Just the person I want to see. Dammit.. Now how am I going to get out of here. I didn't even realize my dad left... Where did he even go? Maybe I was just imagining those eyes..
As I realize I've just been standing here trying to comprehend my thoughts, I quickly snap back into reality and force a smile.
"Hi, Mr. Campel." I friendly greet him.
"Why, look how lovely you are..." He analyzes, licking his red lips as his eyes search my body for his own pleasure. "Although.. I thought we've been over this. It's Isaiah angel." He informed me with a wink that sent dreadful shivers down my spine.
"Mmm.. Right, my apologies Isaiah." I wearily state, slowly backing a bit away as he slightly advances towards me, too close for healthy comfort.
Just as he was about to start conversing again, we were interrupted, (much to my own pleasure) by my dad.
"Oh great! We're all here... How about we start with setting the dates, yes?" He rhetorically questioned as he glanced back and forth between Isaiah and I.
The moment those words left his mouth, I immediately regretted my relief due to his interruption (even if it did only last a second).
Just as we were about to walk off to a more secluded area to discuss the most dreadful conversation I will ever experience... A loud, slick gun shot sliced through the air, startling every soul in this very ballroom.
