Under an influence

Happy birthday Lolita

I woke up early today, well Amelia woke me up and refused to let me go back to sleep. After she sand the full happy birthday song to me in three different languages I finally got out of bed and took a bath then I went down for breakfast with everyone. "Happy birthday Lolita" my father said taking me by surprise "thank you" I responded with a genuine smile. "Has Amelia informed you about the party this evening?" what party I thought turning to Amelia and she gave me a guilty look then turned to my father " Not yet dad I had planned on telling her after breakfast but we have already equiped all that will be required" she said and he nodded. Unbelievable I can't believe this, yesterday when Amelia took me shopping she said it wouldn't be anything grand she would just throw me a little and simple celebration which would only include the people on the house. Now what was this I was hearing about a party? I started daggers at Amelia throughout the entire meal but she just ignored me.

"I know I know you're gonna kill me" she said following me as I walked up the states to my room "don't talk to me" I growled slamming the dood in her face. Without a care in the world she opened the door coming to sit next to me on the bed." Come on Lola don't be like that. I was going to tell you but then you wouldn't have agreed to buy all those things we bought " she let out a long sigh "Anyways Lola the party starts at six pm sharp. There are stylists who will come to do you hair and makeup. This party is very important to dad, he will introduce you to all his friends and business partners so please just go through with it please?" I nodded causing her to smile.

According to Amelia I had an hour until the stylists arrived so I was using my free time to watch a few t****k videos.I then had a little snack and as I started falling asleep I Amelia barged into my room informing me that the stylists had arrived. After welcoming them two went to help Amelia get ready and two came with me to my room."Alright madam I'm Clarice and I will be doing your hair and this is Marie she will will be doing your nails and makeup." the tall lady with green eyes said to me and I nodded the proceeded to help them set up.When we finished setting up I sat down got comfortable and let them do their thing. It had been about three hours that I had been sitting in that chair but they were finally done. My hair was flowing down my back in beautifully done curls and my nails were a beautiful white shade with red tips and limestone. The stylists already, now I was getting dressed. I had a very elegant but light layer of makeup on and my glossy red lips went so well with the dress." Lola? Are you done it's time to leave" Emily knocked on the door informing me "I'll be right there Emily" I quickly grabbed my little purse and rushed out."Oh my goodness Lolita you look amazing" "Thank you Emily" I said blushing a bit."You better hurry up your father is waiting for you and Amelia had already left" I nodded and headed down stairs. My father was took my hand at the bottom of the stairs and lead me to the car " You look beautiful" "thank you dad" he turned to look at me as I also wondered where the word 'dad' came from. The rest of the trip was quite but this time it wasn't awkward it was calm and peaceful. The evening streets were as beautiful and busy as always and I could hear my heartbeat racing through my ears, I was very anxious. My father noticed and just gave me a reassuring nod.

Before I knew it the car started slowing down at a big and tall gate that was heavily guarded and after getting through the security we parked Infront of what looked like a ball room to me. The building was light up beautiful and was already crowded which only made me more nervous. I was frozen into my seat even after my father walked to my door to take my hand o didn't move. Actually I didn't want to move, I couldn't it I just wanted to go back home. "Come on Lolita they are all waiting for us" my father said in a soothing voice but I was not soothed but I just took his hand we and started walking. My and and feet were sweaty and my which was not good considering the fact that I was wearing heels. As we got to the already open doors the announcer yelled at the tip of his voice our "Let us welcome our dear Mr Santoro and his beautiful daughter Lolita Santoro" all eyes fell on me and they all started clapping. I couldn't look at anyone through out the whole introduction ceremony my eyes were glued to the ground. I only looked up when the people came to introduce themselves to me and greet my father. I felt like I was going to pass out. Soon people went back to their own discussions as the music continued playing, of course there were still people looking and pointing at me but at least it wasn't everyone. "I'm going to find Amelia." my father nodded and I took of into the crowed .I walked around with my eyes scanning the place but I couldn't find Amelia anywhere."Hey there" a voice came from behind me and I could hear it was a guy's voice so I didn't bother to turn I just continued walking. Before I knew it he grabbed me by my waist and pulled me into his arms "My name is Enzo nice to meet you sweetheart" "Let her go Enzo!" a voice from behind us. Amelia thank goodness "What's your problem Amelia, jealous that the attention isn't going to be on you anymore?" he said mockingly then let me go and walked away blowing me a kiss."Are you okay Lola? I'm so sorry about that Enzo is a real son of b***h" I smiled at Amelia's annoyed voice"I'm fine. I was looking for you where were you?" "I was also looking for you Lola anyways dad asked me to call you he wants you to meet some people" "who?"I asked raising an eyebrow "you'll see"
