I really hope that Mira's is right about them renewing my contract. I would really hate to give up modeling, its my passion.....other than cooking. I honestly really hope they renew my contract. I need to start looking for other things to do if they don't renew it. I mean this would be my chance to start my chain of restaurants. I nod to myself and decide to start looking for some real estate in the morning. But I will need some investors.

I could just ask the girls to invest. they would without a blink. I smile when I remember how they took me in High School. I wasn't always with them, I used to the biggest bitch in school. Being the most popular girl and head cheerleader, I fame and friends. I snort at that last part. Who am I kidding, all those friends were fake and forsook me when I was accused of doing drugs and stealing the state cup.

I was lucky enough to have been paired with Sophia for a science project so I was at her house when it happened. What did my friends do? They threw me under the bus even though I was innocent. It was then that I knew I had to change who I hung around. Sophia and her friends stood up for me, they defended my innocence by finding the actual culprit. My friends and I had a huge falling out and they de-friended me. I was eating alone at lunch when people started sitting with me . I looked up to curse the person out but it was Sophia and her friends she gave me a very friendly smile and allowed me into their group. We've been friends ever since.

~@~@~@~

Getting home, I took a shower, I felt thirsty when done so I got some water. Getting some water, I unscrewed the cap and drank.

I heard my phone buzz notifying me I had a call. I knew it was an unknown number by the fact that it didn't ring out.

'Hello?.....who is this?'

'Oh honey.....its me' that voice sounds familiar but I just can't remember whose.

'Who.....please just tell me. I'm really need to get some sleep' Like honestly who is this?

'Cupcake its me' my eyes widen in realization. Only my mum calls me that. I started tearing up. It has been years since I last heard from her. I suddenly feel guilt, I've been acting like I didn't have a family back in London

'Oh my god.....mom! How are you? How's everyone and dad. I miss them all so much' The other side goes blank

'Hello?.....mom can you hear me?'

'I'm here.....when are you coming back cupcake? We all miss you' I sigh knowing she would ask.

'I don't know mom. New York is were my work and friends are. Why what's going on over there?' They all supported me when I chose to come to New York to pursue my modeling career. I wonder how Kobe and Marcella are doing back in London. I doubt they've changed a bit.

'Nothing honey' she sighs 'we all just miss you that's all.'

'I miss you all too. Maybe I could take some days off from work to come visit you all.' I say with a sigh

'Work? You're still modeling?' I roll my eyes. Knowing she just couldn't let it go. My mum didn't want me to work at all, she wanted me to be educated and the get married. She arranged me to some guy I had never met in my life. Saying it would unite both families and companies. All she ever cared about was dad's reputation and money. She never cared for her kids. Thank God dad didn't agree with her and allowed me come here to New York to start my own life.

'.....' I didn't bother responding because I knew I could sound rude and suddenly angered.

'Honey you know that job is degrading. You could get a much better job here in England'.

'Mom. I'm way too sleepy to do this. Lets talk tomorrow'

She sighs 'Alright. Goodnight honey...love you' I mumble a 'love u too' and hang up.

Walking to my room, I got to bed with my mom on my mind.

~@~@~@~

After taking a 30 minute shower and settling for my high waist jeans and a fitted top, I walk to the kitchen to eat some cereal.

Halfway through there is a knock on the door. I get up from my seat on the couch. Opening the door I'm immediately pulled into a hug by the girls.

"What is going on?" I asked confused

They pull back. "We're so sorry about your dad" I got into high alert hearing this. What happened to my dad?

"What happened to my dad?" They look at each other but don't talk. I lose my patience and repeat the question a little louder than before. They sigh. Amira walks to the TV and turns it on.

'This is honesty a huge loss for the Posh family and all of England. The death of ambassador Posh will be one of the worst losses England has suffered. My heart goes out to his family' the reporter says.

I can hear the girls talking but I can't hear them only one thing is playing in my head.

The death of Ambassador Posh? No this has to be a joke right?

H-how did I not know about this? Why didn't mom tell me?

Mom!

I walk over to my phone and dial my mom's no. She answers on the third ring.

"Hey honey.....how are you?" I hear it now. She's trying to sound like everything is ok but it's not.

"Cut the act mom how could you not tell me about d-dad" I ask tearing up

".....Honey I swear I was going to tell you. I didn't want you finding out like this." I roll my teary eyes

"H-how d-did he die?" I ask, my voice breaking.

"He had a heart attack in his office two days ago" two days! She didn't think to tell me? I cut the phone in anger and hurt.

I sit on the couch with my head in my hands. How did this happen? I wasn't even there. I'm sure a terrible daughter.....he must hate me...in heaven. I just let the tears fall

I've always been closer to my dad than mom. I guess that's why she didn't tell me. I feel the girls hurdle around me in a hug. I hug them back, I'm happy I have them as moral support.

"I have to go over there" I say out. They all nod

"We'll come with you" Sandra says

"You guys don't have to" I say looking at them.

"We don't but we want to. You're more than just our friend, you are our sister. And we're coming with you" I smile and hug them whispering a 'thank you'.

I have to get over there. I have to be there for Marcella and Kobe. I miss them so much. I just hope they'll forgive me for acting like they didn't exist. In my defense mom pushed me away trying to mold me into the woman she is. I'm not like her and I hope she isn't doing this to Marcella.
