“CAN YOU HOLD ME” BY NF, BRITT NICOLE
I IRIS
walk down the clean street towards our beautiful mansion in Holland
Park, London, sipping on my favourite hot chocolate from the small
Italian cafe just off Kensington High Street. It’s January, but the sun is
shining today, hardly a cloud in the sky, and the birds are singing in the
trees. The promise of spring is just around the corner, but all I feel…is
restless.
I have everything a girl could want. It’s been a little over six months
since I graduated with honours from Wyndham’s Finishing School for
Young Ladies, and I celebrated my nineteenth birthday in style with twenty
of my inner circle at Escargot, a top-end French restaurant in the city, then
at a private club night in central London.
My new, beautiful Kneed handbag—one of my favourite sustainable
fashion brands—hangs from my shoulder, along with several garment bags
from a new boutique that specialises in British-made clothes.
And yet, the winter sunshine can’t seem to lift my mood. I feel lost, cast
adrift, and unsure about what happens next. Even the cute Italian barista
who made my hot chocolate couldn’t shake me fully from my funk.
Though, given my lack of experience having spent the past few years at an
all-girls school in the middle of the countryside, I’m more likely to blush at
any attention from the opposite sex than anything else.
I’m highly trained to be the perfect hostess, the perfect housewife to
some lucky, wealthy businessman or aristocrat—or so they kept telling us at
Wyndham’s, but I can’t help wondering if there’s more for me than that. If
I’m meant to do more than come up with the best menu for an intimate
gathering of the rich and elite.
Maybe it’s because Dad is acting weird, hardly spending any time with
me in the past few months even though we’ve always been inseparable.
Ever since Mum left when I was five, it’s just been him and I. I’ve never
felt the lack of only having one parent because he’s lavished me with his
attention and affection, dropping all his work just to spend time with me
when I was home for the holidays. He always took me on trips around the
world, bringing me gifts from his business travels, and making a point of
eating dinner with me every night when I was at home no matter what else
was going on.
But lately, he’s been so distant, his brows deeply etched as he pours
over papers in his home office into the early hours. I know he’s up so late
because I’ve been struggling to settle myself, this damn restlessness making
my skin itch, even after a day at my favourite spa in Wiltshire.
