Todays’
story is about father (Louis) and daughter (Honey). After the deceased of Honey’s
mother when she was 8, Louis has played both role of mother and father. He didn’t
wanted to get married as Honey didn’t wanted step mother. Louis has fulfilled
every wish of Honey no matter what she asks for.
You can say
he has spoiled her, but Honey always knew her limits as well. They were
really happy with life, Louis had a restaurant which was doing well, and Honey
was studying Fashion and would help Louis with restaurant whenever she had
chance. They used to share everything with each other. They has always shared feelings with each other. Expect this time, Honey was hiding something,
that she has a boyfriend (Eddie).
Honey and Eddie
has being going out for few months. They meet at friends’ party, it was love at
first sight. Eddie was also in college and was doing part time job as his
family was not too well to do. Honey wanted to tell her father that she has a
boyfriend, but her friends said that was a bad idea as Eddie was not in his
feet yet. Even Eddie agreed to not tell their parents yet.
Even though
Honey and Eddie were studying in different college they would always meet each
other and would walk together. Like every day Honey and Eddie met in a bus
stand near Honey’s house and were walking toward coffee shop. Louis was just
leaving for restaurant and saw Honey with a boy, he didn’t mind much, and went
his way.
Later that
evening, Louis was making dinner and Honey was arranging table for dinner. They
were just talking about their day. After some time they sat down for dinner. While
eating Louis thought about morning, when he saw Honey with boy but she didn’t mention
it. Louis didn’t understand why she didn’t mention the person from morning.
After a while, Louis wanted to know why she was hiding that from him.
He said “what’s
new in life?” as if he would usually ask.
“Nothing
much, just need to summit an assignment next week, working on that.” Honey
replied.
“Made any
new friends?” Louis asked after a bite. Honey’s expression changed as he had
never asked that before. She shook her head and looked down at her food.
“Who was the
guy from morning?” Louis asked. Honey’s spoon fall from her hand.
“What guy? I
don’t know what you are talking about” Honey said picking up her spoon from
floor. Now she looked tense. Louis could see that clearly.
“Oh! I saw you with a guy today on my way to restaurant.” Louis said. Honey looked shocked that her dad saw her with Eddie.
“You must
have seen someone else. I directly went to college. I was not in any café.”
Honey said in high pitch voice and stood up to leave. Louis knew she was lying
as he never mentioned café.
Next morning,
Honey got ready early then usual to avoid her dad. She made him coffee and left
it in the table with note asking ‘Dad I need to go to library before class so I
am leaving. Please eat breakfast and have a good day.’ She called Eddie to meet
early, he said he might be late as he was still his home. She said she would
wait.
She grab a
take away coffee from café and reached bus station to wait for Eddie. She thought
she would talk to Eddie about what happened and then tell her dad everything. When
she was lost in her thought about what to tell her dad, a young guy of her age
came in bike and stopped bike right in front of her and sat next to her. She
moved but he did as well. She stood up and asked what he wanted. He smiled and
left, meanwhile Eddie reached bus stand, Honey told him about what happened
with her and dad last night. Eddie suggested they would tell her dad as soon as he got
new job.
After few
days, Louis has not asked Honey anything about Eddie, to which Honey thought
that Louis believed it was some other girl that day and not her. She was relieved
that Louis had not asked anything.
She was
waiting for Eddie in the bus stand as she had her first class off, they decided
to meet little late. Honey was playing with her phone, when same guy with bike
from someday back came. This time he had flowers in his hands. He got off the bike
and came next to Honey. He offered Honey the flower , Honey stood up
and asked what he was doing. He simply replied that he liked her and wanted to give
her present. She got angry and throw the flowers on the floor and said that she
already had boyfriend.
That guy stood
up and took out his phone. Honey asked what he was doing. He said he was calling
her dad as her dad send him to confirm that she had a boyfriend. Honey was
shocked to hear that, after taking a moment she thought her dad would never do
anything like that. She said him to stop talking non sense. He handed her his
phone, Louis was on the line, and Louis said Honey to get back to house at
once.
Honey was
walking toward home still confused of what just happened. She had a lot of things bouncing
in her head like how long her dad knew she had boyfriend, why her dad send
another person and stuff like that. She got home, Louis was sitting on sofa, looked pretty
mad. Honey sat down with him, and explained everything, how long she had
boyfriend, why she didn’t tell him earlier and everything about Eddie and how
much she loved him. Louis stood up and said with anger “from today you will not leave
house until I say. I will drive you to college and you can’t meet with that boy from
now. You will marry a boy I have chosen.”
It hit Honey
very hard. It was a first her dad has said no to her. She was confused and didn’t
understood how her life changed in just one moment. Louis did what he said, he
would take her to college and wouldn’t let her go out of house. Honey was not
doing much, she would cry and tell Louis how much Eddie means to her whenever
Louis was around. Honey would secretly call Eddie once a day from house’s phone as her
phone was taken by Louis.
After few
days, Louis called Honey to the living and said he has selected a boy for her engagement
and she can get married whenever she was ready. She fall down on the ground and
started to cry. Louis picked her up and make her sit in the chair, he said just
to look at the boy first and decide later. Louis shouted “Get In”
That boy
with the bike came in, as soon as Honey saw him she said No and turned around.
Louis said he was not the boy but he just went to get that boy. He singed to
bring the boy. Eddie. Honey got confused, he rubbed her eyes and looked again, and
it was Eddie. She was confused but still jumped and hugged her dad.
She said “what
is going on dad?”
“I am sorry,
I made you suffer this much. I know what he means to you, I have seen it every
day” Louis with watery eyes.
“But you didn’t
liked him” Honey said
“I never
said I didn’t like him. I was just angry at you that you didn’t tell me about
him, you can tell that you have boyfriend to a stranger but not me, why. Remember
I never said no to you then why did you think I would say no to your choice. I have
always been there for you as a friend not as your dad, so that you can share
things like this with me but when you hind that with me I really got hurt.”
Louis said while tears fall off his eyes.
“I am sorry
dad” Honey said with tears as well. He hugged each other.
“Now go be
with him but never hind anything with me” Louis said and pushed her towards
Eddie.
After few
years Honey and Eddie got married and lived happily ever after with Louis.
