I was getting ready for my father' a party. He throw parties a lot at 'random'. I looked in the mirror. I have blond hair and ocean blue eyes. I was wearing a pink dress covered in sparkles.

I hated these dresses but my mother forces me to wear them. I sighed and headed down stairs. The ball room was filled with both rich and poor people. My father allows poorer peoplw to come to make it seem like he is kind but he ain't.

My father was talking to mister Tucker. He is from my father's job and is higher up in the line of work. I walked around saying hello to all the guest who would say things like 'oh your so pretty' 'what a nice girl' 'I wish my kid was this nice'

My older brother suddenly pulled me aside. "What?" I asked "mom wants you in the kitchen" he said I sighed knowing what was going to happen.

"Ok"I said I walked away and headed for the kitchen. A boy bumped into me. "Im sorry" I said "no that was my fault" he said. I thought this conversation was over till he said "you look very pretty" he said

"Thank you" I said "mmh a pretty girl with everything she could wish for but not happy" he said my heart dropped a little. "What do you mean?" I asked confused. "It ain't hard to see through your make up and jewelry" he said with a smirk.

I was frozen. "Not saying no?" He asked "what? No! Im perfectly happy!" I said "as perfect as your family?" He asked I stayed quite and he walked away.

I shook it off and quickly went to the kitchen. "There you are! What took so long!" My mother said "sorry mother" I said she sighed annoyed. "Whatever just take these to your father and Mister Tucker" She said and handed me two drinks.

I looked down at them. "This one is for mister Tucker" she said pointing to the left one. "Don't! Mix! Them! Up!" My mother said "yes ma'am" I said and carried the drinks out to my father and mister Tucker.

"Mother told me tongive these to you" I said I blinked once. It was a sign to my father that the left one waa poisoned. My father quickly took the right one. "Thank you dear" he said

Mister Tucker took the left one. "A toast to you mister Tucker" My father said holding up his glass. Mister Tucker smiled and tapped his glass to my father's.

They took a sip. My father had a evil smile on his face. The poison will lowly kill him. I noticed that boy was watching. He shook his head and walked away.

Did he know something? I thought. Not long after the party was done Mister Tucker was said to be dead. One the maids were arrested. They thought it was her that poisoned him.

I started thinking of the boy again. i have to tell someone.
