《Love or Business?》Chapter 1
Advertisement
I hear the sound of something beeping as I realize it is my alarm clock I groan and roll over to turn it off.
I look at the clock and see that it is 8 am.
A bit more awake already I realize it is my birthday, my 19th birthday to be correct.
But it's not like this day is gonna be different from the rest of my days.
My parents don't really care about me or my birthday so normally I just spend the day like every other day with a book in my hand sitting in my bed.
Our maid Maria normally makes sure that I at least get a cake backed from our cook 'cause she knows that my parents probably don't even know that my birthday is not that it would change anything of they would.
And yes I know what you probably think 'a maid, who needs a maid' and honestly I think the same but my parents are so rich that they even when they are nearly never home think they still need a maid, a cook and a cleaner. At least it doesn't get lonely for me with the people around. I can always go and talk to Maria which I do since I am a little girl. She was there for me all the time more than my Parents ever would be.
Getting pulled out of my thoughts by a knock at the door. I sit up in bed and call a small „come in".
When the door opens I'm surprised to not see Maria but instead my Mom.
She looks at me with a look full of judgement and says „get ready for breakfast your Father and I need to tell you something important." after a quick pause and a glance all over me she added „and change you don't wanna look so horrible."

She waits for a nod from me, which she gets and close the door again to go downstairs.
I quickly stand up and go over to my mirror as I glance at myself I think to myself if I really look that horrible in my short blue pajama pants and a white top, but quickly stop these thoughts because my mom always find a way to insult me. Also it doesn't matter what I wear in my house, in my room and especially in my bed alone. As if anyone would even see me in this.
Realising how much time I spent to look at myself in the mirror. I go int the bathroom to brush my teeth and do my business. Going out of the bathroom i go to my closet and choose a sweet light blue Summer dress with little flowers all over seeing as that it is still quite warm even at the end of summer and go downstairs asking myself what there could possibly be that my parents need to tell that is so important.
Especially when they again forgot about my birthday which in my opinion is very important.
