"As you walk out of that door, walk out of my life as well." I told him as I looked him straight in the eye. All the love was gone. All the good memories faded. In their places were anger, hatred and disgust. He looked at me as if he couldn't believe what I was saying. "I'm sorry, please give me a chance to be a father to Dah-" "Leave!" I said in a dangerously low tone. He didn't deserve to be called a father. He didn't deserve to live at all, you know why? Because he took away everything from me. My virginity, my happiness, my education, my teenage life and my family. Everything. He was a monster and my daughter would never call him daddy.

CHAPTER 1

TORI' POV. I was exhausted. I've been cleaning and serving for about 7 hours straight without a break. I needed a bonus so I could pay Clyde, my landlord. I needed to pay rent for two months since I skipped paying it last month. Then I had to pay the bills. I also needed money for groccery since i was running short. I also needed money for Dahlia's upkeep. I needed a lot of money and I know being a waitress could never pay well enough for all this. I had to find another job as soon as possible. For now, I just have to work extra hours so I could get a raise in my salary. Working at RICO'S was good. At least I was guaranteed of free breakfast and lunch. This helped me to save enough money. Thank goodness my baby Dahlia wasn't a materialistic child. She understood at a young age that things never came to lazy people. I was blessed with the sweetest child ever. A smile made its way to my...

CHAPTER 2
TORI'S POVI woke up at the sound of my alarm. That is my worst sound. I grudgingly walk towards my bathroom and freshen up. I really hate waking up this early but what I hate most is waking up my daughter, disturbing her from her sweet sleep. It's even worse considering she's a deep sleeper.I tap her shoulder lightly while placing a kiss on her cheek. "Waky waky sleepy head."She doesn't shake for even a second. Great. Now I have to carry her to the bathroom and give her a shower when she's asleep. I really don't know how I do it. Four years ago, i could have swore I was never going to be a mom till I was 25 but here I am, giving motherhood my best shot.Once I carried my little bundle of joy up, she smiled and whispered a small 'good morning mommy'.I put her down and took off her dress, placing her in the tub filled with warm water. I had to work extra hard to keep

CHAPTER 3
I couldn't sleep at night. Dahlia's words kept ringing in my mind and I couldn't keep my tears from rolling down. Oh Ian, what did you do to me? "I just want to have a daddy like other kids."I knew that deep down, she felt the emptiness of not having a father. I was doing my best and God knows that. If only he was here. I refused to dwell in that fact. If he left, then it means he did not want anything to do with the baby.I wiped a tear that slipped out as I looked at Dahlia's sleeping form. Was my love not enough for her? The heavens know I'm doing my best for her. Maybe she needs more than I'm offering. With that thought in mind, I took out my old laptop and clicked on the job application I saw earlier. I. W. R Corporation. The upfront picture of the building was so large. I wonder if they would take me in as a worker in their café since their pay is so high. $1500 per month. It was go

CHAPTER 4
TORI'S POV.So here I am, standing in front of my mirror wearing a black skirt and blue button up top. Is my butt too pronounced? I hope not because that always seem to attract men. I was by nature very curvy in all the right places. A few years back, I'd have boasted of my body by wearing skin tight clothes but presently, all that teenage excitement is gone. I paired my outfit with my black flat sandals and black purse.My spirit suddenly dampened. I wasn't sure if I was ready to leave Dahlia with Finn. Not like he minded anyways, but this would be the first time I'll be far away from her and this feeling was traumatizing. Maybe I should just quit this new job and manage the salary I get from RICO'S. But that won't help me or Dahlia in anyway."You look beautiful mommy." I heard her say from the bed. She'd been acting all big girl lately and I knew she was also nervous to stay witho

IAN'S POV.________________________________________I looked at my watch, it was past 4 already and I still had a pile of documents I had to go through. Shit, Alyssa was going to be furious if I went home late. My intercom buzzed."Sir, Mr. Reynolds's here to see you." I heard Jenny, my P.A's voice.Oh Zach. I knew once he got here, we were gonna talk for a long time and I wasn't going to get much work done. "Yeah Jenny, let him in."My door burst open and I rolled my eye at his lack of respect. "You should knock next time.""I know Alyssa's at home so there's no need knocking since I know you won't be busy giving her some. "I laughed. When Zach came back from Germany last here, he needed to settle down. I thought he was going to have his own restaurant but he decided to work here in my companies kitchen. However, he cooked for important events round

CHAPTER 6
"Mommy stop crying, you're not gonna look pretty if you keep up with that." Dahlia told me for about the one millionth time. But how could you not cry when you the only man you ever truly loved and the only man who hurt you most in the whole wide world?I nodded sadly at my little baby girl. If only she knew who the guy she bumped into at the mall is. Another tear rolled out."But you're still crying mommy. Please stop crying already. Pretty please." Her always cheerful voice was gone and in its place was sadness.I hugged my baby so tight. "It huets so much Dahlia. It hurts like a stab right in my forehead."She pulled away a little and gave me a confused look. "What hurts mommy? I was the one who fell down and got hurt yet you're the one doing the crying? "I let out a sad laugh at her cuteness. It was very contagious. "Its nothing baby. "How about we get some ice cr

I couldn't decline his offer even though I really wanted to because the guy displayed that one in a million smile. "Fine.We can go when I get out of this uniform. And for you're own good, I'd let you know before time that Dahlia eats a lot."He chuckled. "That's fine with me, I eat a lot too so we'd bond faster. I'd also change too, we can meet up at the front infive minutes." He said and walked out. I couldn't help but stare at his gorgeous physique. If he works out a little more,he's gonna reach Ian's level.So now you're comparing both men.No. I'm not. I rolled m

Way to ruin the day. I was driven out of my reverie once Zach placed his palms on my backand we started moving to a table at the end of the room. At least we were going to have some privacy.
