Allison Winters She retrieved her bags from the baggage reclaim and then went through the customs and immigration; they checked her passport and bags.

She waltzed out into the arrivals area of the airport.

She was back in Forchia after ten years, paying her father a surprise visit.

Her father shipped her off to England when she was just seventeen right after her mother died; he shut her out and turned cold.

She spotted Ricky with a placard with the words ALLY WALLY written boldly on it.

So ridiculous and he was grinning like a child who'd just been handed a cotton candy.

"Allison!" 

He exclaimed. God, so humiliating.

"Wow you've grown"

 He beamed taking her bags and staring at her breasts.

"And you've gotten shameless"

 She replied, shaking her head.

"Hey, I haven't seen you since you were a teenager, cut me some slack"

 He chuckled.

They got into Ricky's car and she fastened on her seat belts and Ricky turned on the car.

"So-why didn't you want me to tell your father you were in town?"

 He inquired.

"Uuurgh"

 She groaned.

"How many times do you want me to explain this?"

She was tired of his never ending questions.

"I need to know because your father would kill me if he found out I knew about you coming and I didn't tell him."

 Ricky babbled.

"It's a surprise visit and you'd have ruined the surprise if you had told him"

 "Your father doesn't like surprises"

Ricky stated as he made a right turn.

He was right her father hated surprises and he would probably rip her apart if he found out she was in town.

For some unexplainable reason her dad didn't want her in Forchia, but she wasn't a little girl anymore she was twenty-seven.

"Hey, you alright?"

 Ricky brought her out of her thoughts.

"Yeah, I'm fine"

 She took a deep breath.

"So um- how have you been?"

 He asked glancing over his shoulder and staring at her.

"Ricky stop staring and watch the road"

 She stared at her reflection in the side mirror and tucked a lock of her hair behind her ear.

She turned to see Ricky still staring at her . She averted her gaze to the road to see a truck headed right for them and blaring its horns loudly.

Ricky!!!

 ********

Her lashes swept up and she blinked, there was somebody in the room.

She saw a blurry figure of a man staring down upon her.

She squeezed her eyes shut and opened them again, this time she saw a clearer picture of the man staring back at her.

She tried to sit up but she felt a searing pain in her head.

"Ooow"

She winced.

"What are you doing here? I told you to stay in England

. For your own good"

The man yelled at her.

"Dad, I'm really not in the mood-"

"You're not in the mood!"

 He held his breath when he noticed he was yelling.

"You're going back to England today"

 He stated.

"No"

She said flatly.

"What?"

"I said no. Forchia is my home and I'm not leaving. I-I love it here" 

"You love it-" He gave a mirthless laugh.

"It's not safe here; the work I do attracts a lot of enemies, it gets people killed. I don't want to lose you too"

He opined.

She blinked, her mother died of cancer when she was six.

"Where is Ricky?" She asked, trying to change the topic.

"He's okay and don't change the topic"

 Her father instructed.

They glared at each other for a while and then he rose up his hands in defeat. "Alright, alright. You can stay, but there's going to be rules".
