We made small chit chat as she finished making our breakfasts and it continued until we parted ways, me to go to the family ‘home’ and her to go watch some TV and take a nap.  I pulled up to the steps in front of the huge mansion and I couldn’t help but swallow in apprehension.  He was the type of man who somehow knew everything and I was sure he knew what happened last night; I didn’t exactly have good luck.

I opened my door and got out of the car heading around and up the stairs as a man got into my car and drove it away.  I headed up the stairs, the weight on my shoulders only seeming to get heavier while my breathing only grew more labored with each step.  I headed inside and into the living room where my mom, dad, and brother were sitting.

”Spencer.”  I swallowed visibly as my dad stood and approached me.  All of a sudden, he hugged me, “I’m sorry I had to give up your spot, but I didn’t have a choice.  We can not think of just ourselves, we must think of the family business.”

”Right dad,” I did not agree in the slightest, but at least he didn’t seem to know about last night.

”Alright,” he let me go, “then let’s begin talking abou-“

He was cut off by the sound of my cell phone ringing, “Sorry, I need to take this.”  I walked out of the room and went outside before answering, “Hello?”

”Spencer!  You ca-“

I hung up and put my phone on vibrate before heading inside, “By the way, I broke up with Blake.”

”Why Spencer?  He was such a nice boy and…”

I tuned my mom out, used to these rants that she had every time I broke up with a boy.  I was pretty much used to it by now, being a total player and all.  Not.

”Are you even listening to me?”

I looked at her blankly for a few seconds, “No.”

She sighed, “You will never get married nor have kids at the rate you’re going.”

I didn’t think I wanted kids because I didn’t want to bring anyone, especially children, into the ‘family business,’ “Alright mom.”
