Meeting You Was Fate

Shaun eyed Eve with his lips pursed and a cold expression. In a rather stiff tone, he scolded, "You go to the night club every damn day. And you dress so disgracefully. I shouldn't have to tell you to be aware of all the men around you!"

His comment about her clothing infuriated Eve. A frown overcame her face. Furious, she responded, hissing, "What do you mean by that, Dad? What did you just say? I cannot believe you are so narrow minded! It isn't strange that I go to night clubs. Perhaps you are the one who needs to adapt to the modern world!"

Even though she was angry, she dared not meet her father's eyes, afraid that she might cross a line and disrespect him.

"Humph! I'm your father. Who's going to look out for you if I don't?"

Eve glanced at her father's convulsed face momentarily. Seeing how angry he was, she decided not to provoke him any further.

"I mean, just look at how much make-up you are wearing right now! Go out all you want, but you have to learn to take care of yourself! Are you a child? Do I really need to explain these things to you?" Shaun's eyes went up and down her legs. Her skirt was as short as a prostitute's. His nose flared up in anger.

Eve's mother had died when she was very young. The girl had grown up without a mother's love. Back then, Shaun remained very busy with work and seldom paid attention to her. It still hurt Eve that he never even remembered her birthday.

Today was her twenty-sixth birthday. She went out with Jennifer and Bonnie to celebrate.

Most girls her age were already married, or at least had a boyfriend. Eve was neither in a relationship, nor was she married.
