Chapter 6

Ana pov

I got up putting on my jacket,not caring to change out of my pjs,grabbed my keys and went out to the parking lot of the estate complex. Hoping those partyers are gone by now.I dont need anymore shit to see

Once i stepped out of the building i was greeted with a cold breeze that sent shivers up my legs,even through my jacket.I took this as a sign to hurry up and get to my car.Wrapping my jacket more tightly didn't help either.

Passing the suv and red ferrari noticing there was nobody there.I slowed my steps thankful that i didnt have to pass them

i got in the car and headed to the office

--------------

I knocked on the door of my dads office lightly not wanting to startle him or any other late dwellers.Entering the dimly lit office, i took of my jacket and walked over to the lounge,dropping in on the couch  he had there and slumping myself on a seat.
My dad got out of his chair and came to sit next to me in the lounge

He looked distressed , hair no longer in its pushed back position the sleeves of his shirt is rolled up to his elbow revealing a few of his tattoos and his stubble looking longer showing he has not shaved in a long time

As he sat next to me he rested his elbows on his knees while rubbing his hands on his face like he was trying to keep himself awake

I sat up and patted  his back assuring him that everything will be fine and theres no need to worry

I walked to the windows that over look the view of manhattan.Brooklyn bridge,the statue of liberty all the way up to central park and all the new businesses all brightly lit up in the night.It is always breathtaking looking at the view from dads office or even the rooftop of the building.For some reason when ever i look at this view i feel like never giving up in things that may seem impossible to achieve

I felt a hand on my shoulder,turning around i see my dad behind me also looking at the view but i see he is not himself.His eyes say it all.

I turn and go to the small table at the corner where the coffee  machine lays.Turning it on and grabbing two cups of the rack next to it.Pouring the coffee into the cups
I turn to be met with my dads stare

"Ana you know I love you so much my dear and i always will, even if i die promise me you will never give up in yourself.I know you are strong, You are a fernandez.You are my child" he said looking at me with admiration and hope.

i knew the meaning in those words.He has suffered a lot knowing how people took advantage of that in a way to use it against him.The way mum left,the scandal with the business crumbling.It honestly is a big blow.which would be hard to recover from.He wants me to be stronger than he is.

"Don't trust anyone when it comes to money or business,never let your guard down or show you weaknesses to anyone who can use it against you"

"I hope you would run this group well,better than i ever could"

"when I'm not here" he muttered not catching what he said last
But i see lovingness and...Sadness as he speaks talks to me I hope one day dad you will know how much this business means to me and how i will never give up on it

he suddenly turned and walked away to his desk he opened a drawer and took something out of it
i can hardly make out what it is

He placed whatever he was holding next to his head.At that moment i caught on to what was going on but i was a moment to late.Before i could even stop him i heard the sound

{click}
{BANG!}

then I saw his body falling to the floor and blood leaking from the bullet shot in his head to the floor

I fell to my knees not caring for the blood getting on me
I had just witness my dad kill himself in front of me and i was to late to react,to stop him.

My world came to a halt all those memories i once locked away came flooding back in,all the stuff that had been happening to us.what my dad has been through these few years

I broke down.
"I'm grateful to have had you for a dad, you made time for me even though the business required so much from you.Thank you for bieng there for me and I am sorry I'm sorry I couldnt save you"
