The plane had just landed an hour ago in Italy and to say Rose breath was taken away would be an understatement. As she stand on the balcony looking out the window she could not help the tears that was falling from her eyes since she was a step away from meeting her father. She could not help but ask herself, did he look like me, does he have the same likes or dislikes as her, how would he react to finding out he has a daughter. 

She made her way through the hotel lobby looking around she notice a girl walking out of the exit in a hurry. Rose got a strange feeling and decided to follow her where the girl sat in an alley way covering herself up with cardboard boxes. Excuse me she walk up to her only to be yank up and thrown to the ground. Who the hell are you the girl ask with an angry tone, I saw you look distress so I decided to follow you and low and behold you are homeless looks like so I wanted to know if you would like to stay in my room I have two beds, Rose frantically rush out her words.

This ain't no set up is it the girl asked squinting her eyes at Rose who in return shook her head virgorously no. The girl followed Rose through the lobby where they made it to her room as they entered Rose told her she can take a shower or do whatever she liked. After the girl came out she stand next to Rose, you know I can tell you ain't from around here so let me teach you a little life lesson don't ever accept a stranger into your room again it's dangerous especially around her.

Rose shrugged, you seem harmless to me and caught my attention when I saw you sneaking out the back exit. The girl huff and said but still never judge a book by the cover it is people who act like me that draw out and kidnap people like you, by the way what are you doing here by the sound of your accent I can tell you are not from here. No am not just got here on a search for someone Rose said looking down in deep thought. Who the girl asked, Rose was about to speak but paused for a second, how about we order some food then I will tell you how I ended up in Italy, by the way my name is Rose. The girl turn to her fully and smile, my name is Blair.

When the food was delivered Blair told Rose everything about her and her past in return Rose did the same. Hold on Blair said holding up her hands so you are telling me that your Grandfather got into debt with the Russian mafia and you had to sell everything to pay it off and  discovered that the father who you thought was dead is alive and lives here, wow that is what I call a dramatic life. So what is your father's name? Blair ask taking a sip of water. Rose replied according to the file the lawyer gave me his name is Samuel Bartolomeo, upon hearing that Blair spit out her drink she got chock on.

Blair! Rose shouted jumping up from her bed she sprinted to Blair hitting her back, I am okay it is just that your dad is a rich man and could be Don of the Italian mafia, Blair shook her head and said no he is the Don of the Italian mafia. You're kidding right, the tone of Rose voice was unbelievable tone. No and we are going to go find him, you're only sixteen eventhough you are independent an adult have to be there until you are off age, get dress we are going clubbing I know you father is at because he owns this one. Rose nodded and made her way to the bathroom to get ready.

Making their way to the club they stop by the bouncer who stop them right away, I.D. ladies. Oh my friend does not have an I.D. but she isn't here do drink nor party she is looking for someone so can you please let us in Blair say batting her eyelashes. The bouncer shook his head sorry lady your friend does not have an I.D so I can't let her in. Rose step forward, Sir I understand what you are saying I am underage but I need to speak with Samuel Bartolomeo it's important.

The man became suspicious because she wanted to see his boss and nobody can get within ten feet much less five feet to him. Please he heard the girl said, come on but you are not to do nothing other than see him and get out understand. The girl smile and said yes Sir, as they made their way through the club they ended up in the back whereas Blair stayed behind. When Rose walk through the doors she could not help but suck in a breath because before her was her father along with other men.

The bouncer walk up to Samuel, Don this girl here wanted to talk to you she said she had something important to tell you. Samuel looked at the girl then dismiss the bouncer, so who are you and what is your business with me he asked in a deep Italian accent. Rose straighten her posture and look at him, she can feel everyones eyes on her so she decided to speak, my name is Rose Appleton, my mother's name is Fiona Appleton and sixteen years ago you and her dated and she became pregnant with me. I just found out that you Rose pause then looked down and continued are my father.

Silence was in the room, so she glanced up and wish she hadn't because before her was a furious man, if he was a cartoon character his head would be ready to explode she thought. Is this some sick joke, you expect me to believe that some how that women he said with venom bear a child for me. He looked around the room then at her, I do not believe you because if I remember Fiona always tried to make up some excuse to trap me.

Mateo who was Samuel friend stared at the girl, am sorry little one it is just hard to believe that my friend here is your father, your mother was a wild women so any man can be you father not my friend. Rose could not believe her ears this is not how she imagine meeting her father would end up in her mother being call a whore in a reworded way. Rose stand up anger coursing through her body, you think my mother would use me after sixteen years to trap you, did your brain get stuck up your but.

Shooting up from his seat Samuel hurled himself towards her in anger wrapping her hands around her neck. Your mother was a stupid, wild, whore and when I broke it off with her she was mad, I even heard that she went with, no scratch that she was with one of my rivals so I would be damn if she has something else up her sleeve that being said passing a bastard child as mine, you are just like her a damn slut and a trapper. Dad she is young let her go am sure she learned her lesson, when he let go of her he stared at her as the tears drain down her face, get the f**k out and never come back, everybody snickered at her. Rose got up off the floor and ran to the door turning around she looked at everyone with shame, she could not believe that she almost was killed by her own father and they stand by him, with that she turned around and left.
