“We have to plan this just right. We can’t get caught,” she stated while continuing to pace the room. She had to come up with the perfect scheme to get the money owed to her the fastest way possible. She had been plotting on this moment for years and knew the time had come for her big payday. She had managed to squeeze half a million dollars from her father, Harris Joyner.
Now, it was her long lost mother’s turn. If her mother cooperated, maybe she would live, unlike her ex-husband.
It is amazing how time can change a person. Twenty-eight years ago her father was a dope fiend. Now everyone knew him as the world renowned Doctor Joyner. That was until his life ended last night.

Harris had awakened to find his long lost daughter, who he had been trying to locate for over twenty years, still in his room.
“What the fughc?” He stated once he realized the girl that shared his bed just hours before was still in his house. “I thought you left?”
“Now, how can I leave my daddy in this big ol’ house by himself?” she asked in a schoolgirl voice.
“What the hell are you talking about?” he stated cluelessly.
