"I don't wanna see her ugly face," Laurence groans, his eyes rolling to the other side of his view as he crosses his arms. It was time for Laurence to head off to Olive Garden, his first job, and go break it off with Harper. Of course, Garroth just thought he was going to work. He didn't actually think he was gonna break it off with her today. But boy oh boy did Laurence have a surprise for him. The brunette grins once Garroth leans up and kisses his tan cheek.

"Go off to work and come back if you need anything, okay? I'll be here," The blonde speaks, rubbing Laurence's arms.

"Anything?" Laurence smirks which causes Garroth to blush violently whilst giggling.

"Yes! Anything, Laurence."

The brunette grins and says his goodbye, walking off to his car. As he begins to unlock the vehicle, he suddenly hears the loud sound of heels clicking on the sidewalk. He turns his head to see Cadenza marching over to him with tears running down her face. "Why c-couldn't you just fucking stay on the damn phone and l-listen to m-me?!" She stammers, shoving and pushing him with anger.

Laurence's eyes widen, "Cad? What the hell? What's going on? Why are you cry— STOP!" He shouts, grabbing her wrists and swinging her hands off of him.

"You couldn't s-stay on the damn phone f-for a second?!" She cries, falling to the ground and sobbing into her hands. Laurence shakily sighs and rubs his eyes to avoid crying himself.

"What happened, Cad? Are you okay?" He whispers. He crouches down next to her and softly grasps her shoulder with concern.

"I-It's d-dad," She stutters. The brunette's face falls as he clutches her hand reassuringly.

"What about dad?"

"He n-needs surgery f-for his liver or whatever t-the fuck," She whimpers while staring at the ground and letting fresh water spill from her eyes, her mascara running as well and getting mixed up with her tears.

"A liver transplant you mean?"

"Y-Yes," She shout-whispers, looking up at her sibling and falling completely silent. Both of them remain stuck in silence as misery and sadness wash over them. "They said h-he may n-not be strong e-enough to u-undergo surgery though..." And with that they both burst into tears, hugging each other and swaying back and forth on the ground. The brunette whines softly, knotting his fingers in her lava colored hair.

"It'll be okay, Cad. Dad's strong. He'll be okay," The brunette comforts his sister. But he had no idea if he was telling the truth or not. After the whole breakdown with Cadenza and a whole lot of explaining and crying to Garroth, Laurence drops Cadenza off back at her house and drives off to Olive Garden. He enters the restaurant with red and puffy eyes, eye bags, and a stuffy nose. Different employees there frown with sympathy towards him as he passes by them. He walks towards his boss' office and knocks lightly, hearing a low 'come in' from the other side of the door. The brunette inhales deeply before exhaling and entering the office. The man looks up and immediately growls when seeing Laurence, knowing that he was Harper's so called, 'boyfriend'.

"What do you want now? A raise?" The man groans, Laurence shakes his head. The brunette sighs and looks over to see Harper sitting in a chair with a magazine. Her face is consumed of a look that says, 'oh my god why are you here please leave'.

"I just want to say a few things," Laurence utters, wiping the dry tears from his face. "Your daughter is dating me. And Emanuel. At the same time."

"What?!" Harper shrieks, her eyes wide with fear. The man looks over at her with a shocked expression. "N-No! H-How did you f-find out a-about it, you—"

"I work four jobs, Harper. It's not really smart to casually stroll into the grocery store with your tongue down Emanuel's throat when I'm working my shift there," He says, rolling his eyes.

"Excuse me?! How dare you say that to my daughter! She is an angel and is loyal to all her friends and family! Next time you come in here and—" Laurence's boss begins his lecture but gets cut off by the brunette.

"I wasn't finished talking."

Harper looks at Laurence with disbelief, tears beginning to brim the corner of her eyes. "L-Laur, you don't u-understand I—"

"Then again, I wasn't finished talking. I'm sick and tired of working here and having to deal with both of your shit. Do you understand what it's like to be me? It's exhausting," The brunette hisses, anger beginning to boil up inside him. "Both of you do nothing except lecture me every single fuckin' day, when you have no idea how much stress and pressure is being put on me."

"Oh you're such a big baby," His boss chuckles, eyes rolling as he picks up a pen and begins writing on paper. "Grow up. Everyone has struggles, I bet yours aren't as bad as the kids who are starving, huh?"

Laurence growls, his hands clamping shut in fists. "What the hell do you know about me you son of a bitch?"

"Everything."

"Everything?!" Laurence repeats his boss' words, laughing wildly. "Well I'm sorry, but your wrong."

"I am not! I know everything about you! Don't you think I know your likes and dislikes? Your hobbies and your age? Your—"

"Those are things about me. I meant about my life. Do you know anything about my life?" Laurence furrows his eyebrows strictly. It goes silent for a while, his boss looking him up and down with frustration. Harper sits quietly in a chair across her father's desk with shock apparent on her pretty (not really) face.

"Listen, Zvhal. I'm going to give you 3 minutes to get—"

"I'm not gonna listen to—"

"Stop interrupting me!" He yells, standing up slowly from his chair. He slams his fist onto his desk while pointing at Laurence. "I am your boss. You don't talk to me that way, young man," He hisses.

"You know what? I'm in love with a man. He's my world and means more to me than anything. In fact, I fucked him into oblivion yesterday, maybe while your daughter was out playing 'bicycle' with three different men," Laurence laughs and leaves his boss and Harper in absolute shock.

"H-How dare you!" The older male stammers, glaring at Laurence with pure hatred.

"Well I'm sorry you're so offended, but it's true and there is nothing you can do about it. Your daughter," The brunette pauses whilst walking up closer to the man's desk, "is a fucking un-loyal trash bag filled with shit," And with that, Harper's dad swings at Laurence and leaves a bruise on the brunette's cheek.

"Get out! You're fired!" The man, who is also known as Jack, yells. Laurence clutches his jaw tightly.

He turns towards Harper, "I hope you know we aren't nor ever were really dating. I'm sure you wont be that upset either, you'll probably just go to Emanuel. Right?" Laurence chuckles with a smug look on his face, looking at Harper with a glare that would make most people run away. He earns himself another punch in the face by Jack.

"Dad stop! Stop hitting him, it's not gonna solve anything!" Harper shrieks, her hands tangled up in her hair. However, Jack ignores his daughter and goes to swing again, but this time the latino doges it and grabs the man's fists in his palms.

"Touch me again and I'll beat the living shit out of you," He snarls with a smirk and he roughly tosses Jack's fists away. He walks over to the office door and clutches the doorknob, opening it with a proud smile. He stops and turns around with a large grin, "Oh and by the way, I have a bigger dick than you," He speaks, sending Jack and Harper the middle finger before running out laughing. He reaches his car and gets in quickly, driving off to his 3rd job which was babysitting the kids, since he had off on his 2nd job. He grabs his phone out of his pocket once reaching the familiar house's driveway and calls up Garroth, whose contact was under the name 'beautiful'.

"Hello?" The blonde's voice rings through the phone and Laurence could tell he was having a good day. He smiled, knowing that it would be 100% better soon.

"Hey, come to the kids' house quick, I wanna show you something!" Laurence laughs into the phone, tears of joy beginning to take over his eyes. He hears Garroth giggle.

"Okay, I'll be there soon. Bye," The blonde gushes, hanging up the phone after Laurence says goodbye as well.

"Fucking finally," He whispers to himself, the tears of joy beginning to roll down his cheeks with a bright beam stuck on his face.
