Sofia Volkov is a girl who's the very picture of a goddess. She is wealthy. She has enough beauty to spare. She has the smarts of a genius and is pretty hefty with a knife.
But what if her own knife is hurting her?
What if she's great but not the b...
Momma reaches her hand over and I get a flashback of when Lorenzo did the same. I take my hands in hers and lean my head on her shoulders.
"Sweetheart?" My momma whispers to me.
"Yes?" I whisper back.
"Do you wanna talk about it?" She didn't have to specify what it meant. While I may be able to hide most of my feelings from everyone and anyone- momma always knows.
It takes me a minute before I respond. "Yes." I answer honestly.
"Now?" She says, this time she starts playing with my bracelets.
"Later." I answer instead. She nods and for some reason I feel a pressure in my chest slowly unraveling.

Tonight the whole family is going to a fancy restaurant. And coincidently enough I'm stuck in the car...with Lorenzo...alone. Yay!
The fancy restaurants are a little farther then the rest of the area so the car ride is supposedly 20-30 minutes. Yay!
As I put on my gold earring in front of my full body mirror I hear someone come in. "You look beautiful little sunshine." My dad softly says. He kisses my forehead as softly as his words.
"My beautiful daughter." He says. He looks at me like I'm the greatest thing in the world and it breaks my heart that he doesn't know about my job. After what happened with Lorenzo I was scarred I would get the same treatment. Not because I'm afraid of being alone or don't want to travel, but because I can't imagine loosing my dad like Lorenzo lost his. Christian is still Lorenzo's father but their relationship changed forever the minute his dad basically banished him to another country. Deep down I know Dad and Momma would love me no matter what (Nico doesn't have an option) but the little girl's heart that Lorenzo broke that night- tells me something completely different.
Tears start forming in my eyes but I try and think of unicorn and rainbows to prevent them from falling. Concern overtakes Dad's features anyway.
"You okay?"
"Mhm." I reply with a shaky voice before hugging him. He hugs me back almost immediately. His hands rub my back in a circle while he whispers sweet nothings. He lets me go and analyses my face.
"Is this because of Lorenzo?!" He asks angrily.
"Wha-what no no! I just needed a hug." I quickly answer. Not wanting any problems.
He looks unconvinced. "Little sunshine promise me that's it's not about him."
Before I can answer Nico comes barging in. "Everyone's waiting for you guys."
