ROSALIE
(Sixteen years old)
How is it that one realizes they’re walking toward their doom
only seconds away from it?
Just measly moments before so you can’t escape it.
As though the man sitting above wants to do the bare minimum
in order to fend off his guilt and skate free by saying… “Oh child, I
did give you a warning. Not my fault you didn’t take it.”
Well, he and I are going to have a talk later.
Rest be assured, I’m not going to sit back and let my life be
ruined. Whatever awaits me on the other side cannot be worse than
what I’ve already suffered. And… survived.
I take the flight of stairs as slow as humanly possible after my
father summoned me to his home office through one of our many
butlers. Yes, summoned because even at home, he prefers to be
treated like a king, royalty—which we’re not—since anything lesser
than that is beneath him. Beneath the Kapoor family name.
I’m surprised he even remembers my existence, let alone my
name, and actually asked for me since he behaves as though I’m
invisible. That single reason itself tells me it can’t be for anything
good.
Usually, we have my mom as a buffer but currently, she’s
traveling for one of her several yearly charity galas, which causes a
spike in my anxiety.
Stopping before my father’s study, I knock on the door once and
wait.
“Come in.”
The door doesn’t make a creak as I push it open and enter. My
feet skid to a screeching halt when I notice who are sitting opposite
my father’s large mahogany desk, which he had custom-made.
Yes, we are a bunch of snobbish people.
Once when I was a kid, I had sneaked in here because the little
me enjoyed the otherworldly feel of the room. As if it were carved
straight out of a Harry Potter movie, which I was obsessed with at
the time and had binge-read the whole series. And whoever says
movies are better than the books, they don’t know what the fuck
they’re talking about.
Because they obviously haven’t read a book in their lives.
I would sit at my father’s chair and pretend I was the professor
at my own magic university. Accidently, I ended up writing on the
wooden desk with a black marker, leaving a permanent spot. When
my dad had found out I ruined his precious table, he had blown a
gasket. I was yelled at for not having manners and imprisoned in my
own room, with strict orders to not be let out for a whole week.
Jasmine, my older sister, would sneak in to keep me company,
but nothing gets past my ruthless father. He sent her over to our
aunt’s place so she wouldn’t attempt to help me again.
Even today, the memory of being locked away makes me
shudder and it’s the reason I despise and dread being alone. The only
difference is that instead of people, I enjoy my dog’s company. And
my childhood best friend, Bianca.
The same dreadful feeling is coursing through my veins now.
“Take a seat, Rosalie,” my dad’s authoritative voice calls out,
yanking me from my murky past.
