~FIVE~
A cold chill ran down my spine as soon as Uncle Romario opened the back door of the car and I saw daddy seated inside with both his legs crossed smoking a cigar.
I looked at him scared with my eyes big, but refused to move.
Daddy turned his head towards me and soared me his angered glance from head to toe.
He breathed out, complimenting me and I tried to smile. But my smile was that of a scared one as well.
Rhys
Now what are you looking at me for? Get inside!
Daddy shouted at me and my breath hitched. I wanted to go back into the arms of Aunt Jenny and cry.
Romario
Ma'lady, please sit down.
Uncle Romario tried to comfort me by holding me up in his arms and then placing me inside the car, making me sit right beside daddy.
He then closed the door and circled back to sit himself in the driving seat.
Romario
Ma'lady there is a box of chocolates for you at the back of the car.
Uncle Romario told me and I jumped with excitement
Little Iris
Wow, chocolates!?
Uncle Romario smiled at my reaction starting the engine and I stood up on the seat starting look at the back for chocolates.
But then my eyes met with daddy's, and he was glaring at me. My face immediately turned pale in horror as I took my seat back.
Little Iris
I don't want to eat chocolates.
I pouted with fallen face as I heard my daddy's domineering voice once again.
Rhys
Don't make me regret my decision of taking you out Iris!
Tears pooled into my eyes immediately after hearing him say that. Why am I so weak near daddy? I don't know. But anything he says to me, hurts me.
Rhys
Iris, how do you react when I say something to you?
Romario
Master Rodriguez, she is just a little girl. And she is so cute. Why do you keep scolding her?
Uncle Romario said glancing at my tearful face from his rearview mirror. Daddy glared at Uncle Romario and he immediately apologized.
The fifteen minutes ride to the party venue seemed like a century old to me. Once the car stopped at the venue, I couldn't help but look outside at the beautiful palace we were at.
Little Iris
Whoa! Is it Christmas in this house?
I asked at which daddy rolled his eyes and Uncle Romario informed me.
Romario
Ma'lady, parties are like this only. They decorate the house beautifully, so the guests would enjoy the decorations.
Little Iris
Oh. I'm sorry. I didn't know that.
I said looking at daddy with my head bowed at him.
Rhys
Behave like a good girl that you are at the party. Am I clear?
I replied promptly and he smiled at me for the first time. My heart skipped a beat looking at my daddy smiling at me for the first time in last five years I have known him.
Rhys
Come, hold my hand so you won't get lost.
Daddy said and I gladly jumped down the car holding onto his thick masculine fingers.
As I was walking away with daddy heading inside this beautiful house, Uncle Romario drove away the car perhaps taking it to the parking lot.
