Athena’s head was pressed against the slowly steaming glass of the cab she was in, completely surrounded by boxes that contained her whole life. She still couldn’t believe mom was gone... It was just a headache... then it got worse and worse then she was gone. Now she was going to be in the care of her father, she knew little about him aside from the fact that his name was Julius and he was black and owned some well off business of life coaching.
Wiping her eyes from the falling tears that had appeared briefly, she saw her homely district suddenly change into the affluent neighbourhoods of the streets where they give out the best candy on Halloween! It was worth the trek. Her dad lived here! No way. The taxi pulled up to a entrance where a stunning blonde was standing typing on her phone. Stepping out she opened the door for the cab driver to start unloading.
“ Hi, ummm I’m Athena. I’m Julius’s daughter...” she explained as the taxi driver started to unload about a dozen medium sized boxes. All haphazardly put together by her grandparents and herself, mainly books and clothes, some things of moms that she wanted to keep for herself. The tall blonde nodded and opened the door wider “ come on in, he’s just finishing something up” she turned on her heels and left Athena standing in the doorway “ Would you like some help? They look ever so heavy.... oh no it’s fine I can manage” Athena mocked as she dragged her suitcase inside leaving it in the hallway, kicking off her converses she sighed as she felt the cool wooden flooring on her bare feet. A habit picked from her mother, she loved feeling the change in flooring on her feet, it was exciting.
Putting down the last box she huffed out and called “Dad? “ she paused the word sounded so strange coming from her lips in the first time in...years. His house was extravagant and modern, like what you see n superhero films. “Where are you? This place is huge, I’m expecting Scrooge Mcduck to come swimming in on a bunch of gold coins” she chuckled as she ran a hand through her smooth red hair as she came to a large living room. Flopping down on one of the sofa’s she got out her phone and browsed.
