TRIANA

A NEW START

......Back at home..........

Triana's Father: I am very sure Triana left this house because of your negligence, He said while descending the stairs and throwing glances at his wife who was sitting at the dining table.

And why the hell could she even leave unnoticed, right under your nose, today is the third day and she's still no where to be found..

Step mom: What! so now you want to blame me, Are you been serious right now?, you are not even bold enough to call her your daughter, and point of corrections it's not right under my nose, it is right under our noses, moreover you were at home that day so there's no excuse, there's no point looking for her, since she is such an ungrateful fellow, let her go and survive on her own, it is not like we really care anyway, she's already an adult

Triana's Father: Really, Nancy she is barely 16 years old, and you think she can survive on her own?

Step mom: Oh, you mean she can't, then why did she leave the house it is not like I asked her to, let the little witch get out of my hair and let me breathe please, and I don't want to keep on dragging this issue, let me rest"! She said gradually increasing the volume of her voice, she is clearly frustrated now.

(She probably didn't expect her husband to ask after) Triana since he usually behaves as if the girl didn't exist, why is he concerned now that she left.

Well according to her, that's the best decision Triana has ever made it's just that she now needs a new maid, she has become too lazy to do all this house work and she can't allow her precious Ben do anything,

He is the most priceless asset in Johnson's house.

it is only her son that has the right to inherit all what my father has worked for.

The Williams corporation, no other person is allowed, she is never going to allow that or tolerate any family members to poke their nose into her husband's wealth, it belongs to her and her son alone, whosoever comes close will be removed from the picture, She thought within herself and smiled evily as she remembered some past events.

Triana's Father POV..

My wife doesn't seem concerned a little bit which is making me think she really did not like my daughter and all what Triana have been trying to tell me is true.

I would be a big fool if I say I didn't know what my daughter is facing in my house but what could I do, I can't favour her at the expense of my wife and son, No! that wouldn't work and I would not want a situation where by my wife start to think I don't love my son or I still love her mother, she has once threatened to take my son to a place where I would never find them, she has a temper I can't really contend with and I know her well, If I don't handle this matter wisely I might end up losing on both sides and that will not be fair.

Even if Ben is still very young, he is my only son and I would not lose him for anything in this world, not even a daughter who would eventually end up in a man's kitchen, no, that will not be wise of me, I wouldn't let those board of directors at the Williams corporation take away all my shares just became I don't have a son to inherit it, as those stubborn share holders will never let a lady rule them or will they allow a girl child handle the affairs of the company whenever I retire,

I know them well enough to understand that, even though I practically knew nothing about my daughter I never knew her strength or weakness, her talents or whatever it is she is capable of, all I know is that she is a girl and I can't hand over the Williams corporation to her, I have been too busy to care about her well being and do not have the slightest idea about where she could be.

Does she even have friends?, or is she with some relative I don't know about?

Where could she possibly go to?, she doesn't seem like the outgoing one as far as I can remember, something like this as never happened before...

Triana's Father kept on asking himself various questions as he laid with is back on the bed facing the ceiling, this is the first time he is thinking about his daughter's well being.

Well she is old enough to handle herself, since she didn't deem it fit to tell me anything," he concluded in his mind. Come to think of it she did try to talk to me about something, but I didn't even bother listening to her complains" he kept on murmuring to himself

Perhaps, I could have married her off to one of my share holders or partners, to further strengthen my wealth and position in that company...hmm, I should have thought of this before, with that at least she will be serving a useful purpose as I will use my in-law title to gather some benefits.

And what are you thinking about that you didn't hear me enter said Nancy, as she marched into the room staring at her husband intently as if to decipher his thoughts.

He had better not been thinking of Triana and why is he acting like he can never do without her,He has also contributed to whatever made triana leave, she said within her, if not this house will be too small to accommodate the both of them. I don't know why he can't get the useless, good for thing girl off his head.

I don't care whatever happens to her, she should be gone for good and leave our lives completely.
