Jim was heading out the flat earlier than usual that morning to finish a business with a client; when he almost stumbled upon the small body of two year old Jenny curled up in front of the flat's door sleeping patiently waiting to be acknowledged.
Turns out Jenny's mother Patricia was a hooker Jim had met at a club almost three years earlier when he was celebrating what he thought to be the death of Sherlock Holmes. He was so cheerful that evening he drank too much beers and ended up hooking up with Patricia latter than night and Jenny turned up 9 months later. Of course Jim didn't remember anything and was awfully confused by the sleeping toddler at his feet.
He looked at the child in disgust he bend down to see if it was alive; as he raised the small blanker of Jenny's small shoulders a folded letter with his name on it was revealed on top of her. He picked it up carefully, got up from his crouched position and unfolded it to discover the little girl beneath him was his daughter.
As Jim read this huge fog rushed through his head making him dizzy; what he was reading couldn't be true he was usually so careful about those things. His head was spinning with all type of ideas when it stopped and he could think clearly again he decided to find out if this girl was truly his daughter; if she was he needed prove.
He left the little girl outside while he Sebastian. The kid might turn out to be his but until he had absolute prove it was he wasn't going to touch it or let it touch him; even after proving she was his he wasn't sure if he would allow any type of contact between them. Kids were dirty, nasty, disgusting creatures with very limited understanding of any sense of order, hygiene or respect he wasn't going to risk himself or his classy cloths getting ruined by such a foul thing.
After been inform of the situation Sebastian went to get the little girl; he picked her up, carried her inside and placed her on the couch. Jim looked at the toddler with a dark judgmental look as it slept and barked at Sebastian to call the nearest hospital and make an appointment for a DNA test asap. Jim was already late for his meeting and he was more than certain he was going to have to cancel it and that made him very irritated.
As Sebastian was hooking the earliest appointment when Jenny awoke and started to cry and ask for her mummy confused by the sight of the two men.
"Whe-re I'm I?"
"where is mummy?…..Mummy, Mummy!"
" I want my Mummy!" wined Jenny.
Jim got so irritated, he wanted to shut the child and tried by yelling at her only scaring her more. "OH MY GO,! WILL YOU SHUT UP!"
"Your mom hates you and she left you!"
"She is not coming back ever! SHUT UP!" Jenny started to cry harder with more sorrow frightened by Jim's cruel words.
Sebastian who was holding to speak with the secretary was forced to hang up the phone and attend to the commotion.
"Jim Shut up, can't you see she's scared!" barked Sebastian picking up Jenny in his arms in an attempt of calming her down.
Jim snorted at Sebastian "whatever Sebastian she is not going to stay anyway why do you pretend to care for the brat?"
As he said this Jim grabbed his coat and stormed out of the flat to meet with his client. He was going to attend to his business and test the kids DNA afterwards he didn't care if the kid was his or not anymore he just wanted to get out of the bullshitting environment of tenderness and kindness Sebastian was creating.
It made him sick to think Sebastian would become so soft so suddenly for a strange child he didn't even knew.
