Daddy, you want to talk to me? Just go ahead.
Tracy was shocked as to how her father was able to lie in her face, she was sure he knows what she had done and is just protecting her, but she wanted to know how much he knows and what he had done.
She had avoided telling him so much, for he knows strictly, that she would get protection from him, and he doesn't mind, adding more, or killing more persons, just to get her to feel safe.
As she kept staring at her father, it occurred to her, to speak, as she could no longer bear the silence.
"Daddy you want to talk to me, just go ahead"
She asked after making sure no one was in sight, she didn't want to take chances on their lives.
"Why did you plan all that for a man? At first, she didn't understand what her father meant by planning for a man, she looked a bit confused, which was evident on her face, therefore, he had to add. "why did you plan for that one eyed man to rape that Amanda girl?
She swallowed hard, for she knows then that, her father, have gotten all the information he needed, but he still looked like he was confused.
Her father couldn't understand why his daughter had to do all she did, she was beautiful and classy, any man in his right sense would want her, but now she had done so much that he also had gotten his hands dirty.
Getting his hands dirty, isn't like a problem to him, he was born to get his hands dirty, in a country, that is corrupt, and people fight for their survival, with blood and water, getting his hands dirty, could only be seen, in the eye of people of the same class, as the only reasonable thing to do.
If he didn't get his hands dirty for his own daughter, they will dirty his hands for him, by pushing him down to the mud.
He stared at her, hoping she would tell him, something he didn't already know, as he added.
You are a beautiful girl, people see you as a Queen, and they will be more than willing to get along with you, then, you had to loose yourself, that way, for a man?
She could see her fault, standing in front of her, there was no need to pretend, so she apologized.
"I am sorry Daddy"
She felt her heart get heavier, as she finished apologizing as she started to cry, she was crying that Desmond, had issues consoling his daughter.
Still, he knew he had to try and console her, she is his only daughter after all, and he needs to protect her, no matter her sins, that is what a father would do.
"It's okay my love, don't cry". He tries getting her to stop, but she cries some more.
Just then, Josh was coming to the hospital, and when he got close to the room, he heard light sobs coming from the inside, he wondered who was crying inside or what had happened again but instead of knocking on the door, he decided to eavesdrop on whoever it was with Tracy in the room, since he already had his suspicions.
"Daddy I didn't know what I was doing, I was acting on impulse, the family didn't want her, they wanted me, but he chose her, so I wanted to destroy whatever she was using to hold him still, that was why I paid Steven"
Her father didn't want to hear anymore, he was aware of what she had done, he just wanted to get it over with.
"How do I find this Steven guy? He asked not wanting her to let out any more secrets, his philosophy was to keep secrets from the walls, he had always believed that if one wanted to say something that needed to be kept a secret, it should be said in the open air without walls around that way even if the air wants to travel with the news it would have lost most of it's content.
" I have his numbers "
She said and gave her father her phone, he saw what she saved it with and smiled, his daughter was a very smart child, he was happy to know that but he wasn't so happy knowing she was taking after him.
Josh was trying to make some sense from the little he had heard but it wasn't enough, he didn't get enough information, but he was sure Tracy knew more than she was letting on, he planned to find out his own way, but he needed the man to leave so he could go in immediately, he walked back to the exit and stood there for a while, the moment he sighted the door about to open he started walking in.
Mr Desmond saw him and was glad he was just coming in, they greeted casually and he walked straight into the hospital room where Tracy was. He stood at the door way and smiled towards Tracy, that was the first time she had seen him looking at her that way, she wondered what was going on in his mind, she didn't want to loose guard, so she smiled back but his smile made her more uncomfortable.
