You Are So Beautiful To Me...

Chapter 3

Camila's pov

I woke up today a little happier, today was the one day out of the week that made me forget all the haasil of trying to be what my father wanted me to be and made me feel like I was normal and didn’t have a care or worry in the world.

Today was the one day out of the week I got to spend the day with my mother and little sister Sofi.

I know after the separation it was hard but we made it work to the point where I could spend time with the two and not be deprived of my sister after everything that happened. It was difficult with school but sometimes when my mother couldn’t hire a babysitter for Sofi i was able to go over to my mothers and have sister time with Sofi until I had to go because my father expected me home before dark.

All part of the arrangement.

But that all came to a stop when I graduated high school and my father decided to have me learn the ropes of what he does everyday to which came to a point where it became a priority and most important then me seeing my mother and sister.

So now a days i was only ever able to see them once a week because well Sofis back in school and it was the time of the year were marketing was high meaning, no time for family.

I hopped out of bed and took a quick shower, as I got dressed I packed a few things and rushed out of my room to have a quick breakfast and head out. but when i was getting ready to leave my father called after me.

“Yes?” I said as I walked in to the dining room he sat in like every morning. Sipping his coffee and doing paperwork beyond paperwork and typed away at his laptop.

Nothing new.

“I set a few meetings today on the proposals for the new investment plans so I need you to be ready and on your way ” he said looking up at me for a moment and began to packed his things.

“Today?” I asked in disbelief.

“Yes today”

“But I'm supposed to go to Mama’s today, its my one day out of the week” i said almost pleading. 

Out of all day why today.

“Well if you had been present when we all disgusted everything you would know that we had this already set” he went on as I shook my head in sadness and disappointment.

“I know you have other obligations but these are very important meetings and I need you to be there if you want to know how this company works so i suggest you get dressed and meet me out in the car”

“But- “

“No, what is done is done i already called your mother and she has already understood, now go” he demanded. I just nodded and went up the stairs quietly.

I drop my bag and bit my lip as I felt my eyes slightly tear up. I walked slowly back to my room and found Anna already there with my outfit and fixed bed. I didn’t look to her as she left the outfit on the bed and patted my shoulder and rubbed my arm in sympathy before leaving me be.

I met up with my father outside after getting dressed dressed. When I got in the car I just put in my headphones and let the smooth voice of Ed play in my ears trying to ignore my father and wish that these meetings could be done and over with quick so i could see my mother and little sister.

‘And you should never cut your hair 
Cause i love the way you flick it off your shoulder mm’

I got lost in my own thoughts and carried away by the music. If there was one thing that could make me feel what I was feeling and get through it, it was music. I had been through, I didn't know how many songs played once we arrived as my father took out my headphones to get my attention.
