218 Words
Today, dad sent me to the Adélie family's house to make a deal with the family. I have been told that the family needs to make this deal with us to make sure our company continues expanding, so we can eventually take over as the lead in the blood industry. I knock at the door and see this short, pale, red-headed, brown-eyed, beautiful girl who appears to be 21. She has some bruises on her face and arms, quite a lot, actually. I began to worry about this girl. “Are you Mrs. Jennifer Adélie?”
“No, I am Madelyn. What is your business with her?”
“I need to speak with her regarding a business deal.”
“Oh, alright, come in, come in.”
I stepped inside and looked at her with awe. How could someone so kind be covered in so many bruises? She leads me to a door and knocks on it.
“M-mother,” she stammers.
A sharp voice retorts, “what is it, useless child?”
“There is a young man here to see you.”
“Let him in and then continue with your chores.”
She opens the door and gestures for me to enter the room. Once I am in she closes the door behind me.
