The deal
The deal was simple; for a generous sum of one thousand pounds a month, paid directly in cash to George, he was to let Frank marry Carla, without any interference. No strings attached.
Frank had never been very successful with the opposite sex. On more than one occasion he had been accused of sexual assault, but his rich-over loving parents had managed to bail him out each time and the allegations were took no further. Carla on the other hand was young, beautiful and had all the boys she could ever wish for constantly asking her out on dates. To Frank, Carla seemed the perfect catch, but what did Carla think to it all…
3rd January 1989 - 10.25
It was now well into the morning and still Carla had received no kind of Happy Birthday wishes from either one of her parents. 'Had they completely forgotten?' Carla found herself thinking as she wondered down the creaking stairs into the living room, where she found both her mum and dad, sitting on the stained couch, a can of larger in one another's hand, as baby Rob crawled across the dust coated carpet.
"An 'appy birthday wouldn't 'ave gone a miss y'know" She bluntly said walking over to the couch adjacent from where both her parents sat as George, her dad, looked up and gave a half sympathetic smile towards his daughter. He hated what he was going to be putting her through. He loved her with all his heart and more it that were possible, but he needed the money, she'd understand? She knows how hard thing are at the minute.
"Happy birthday my darlin'! Your present will be 'ere soon. See we didn't forget! Is Dad going to get a hug from his princess then?" Upon hearing him, Carla immediately stood back up and leaped into his lap, pleased that at-last she was the centre of attention to her parents.
"Yah didn't need t'dad. I know things are tight round 'ere. Rob could 'ave got more nappies or summat' with that money.." Carla honestly replied, looking amongst her parents and Rob. Yet unbeknown to her, that present cost her family very little, and was to come in the form of Frank Foster…
Please review! Thankyou! xx
