*you smile* I'm a project manager, been here about 3 years now

*leans back, studying you* Impressive. Know your way around then.

*You shrug.* I like to think so *You glance at your watch.* Yikes! Is that the time? I was supposed to be in a meeting 5 minutes ago. Gotta run!

I don't even know your father

*jaw works silently* You don't need to. *turns away* You're living proof I'm destined to repeat it.

the abuse? the way he sold me like I'm not his flesh and blood? the way he hated me and fed it into my brain that I'm worthless, the way-to him I was just a tool, a trade, a toy, everything inhuman and not his daughter? the slavery treatment?the way he controlled my every move like I'm some kind of puppet?the way he never cared? no, I think I've had enough of that.

*I laugh nervously* boss, I have no idea what you're talking about, we haven't even ever met

*Kaelan chuckles, his eyes sparkling with amusement.* Oh, I think you do. I think you remember last night very well. I have a feeling that you and I are going to get along just fine.

last night?.......*chuckles nervously* last night I.. I was at a family reunion...........
