Two days had passed since Zosia's and Guy's disastrous attempt at repairing they're broken relationship. Zosia had taken two days off, ringing in sick but this was a lie. She didn't want, or rather risk running into her father again after once again them spending time together had ended badly as it usually did so, whenever they tried to have a conversation, Zosia awoke from her deep slumber, she rubbed the remainder of sleep out of her eyes. The flat was quiet as she remembered that Arthur had left for work early this morning. Which meant she had the flat to herself. She looked at the time and it was no later then twelve pm, when there was a knock at the door, she froze. She certainly wasn't expecting anyone so she tried to ignore whoever was at the door wishing that they would go away, but when they knocked again, she sighed. She guessed she better open it otherwise whoever was at the door probably would call back again later.
She changed into a pair of jeans and a plan white shirt before eventually going to answer the door not at all expecting who was stood behind it, she unlocked the door. And Guy was stood behind the door. She scowled at her father. "How did you find out where I live?" she scowled. Guy titled his head and looked at his daughter "well its nice to see you too, and you look well conceding you're supposed to be sick" Guy noted. "Well I think I'm over the worst of it" Zosia lied quickly hoping that her father wouldn't rumble her for not turning up for work for two days.
"Right I see, I don't want this visit to be long, its just you appear to have something of mine" he said, Zosia raised an eyebrow. "You have my work phone and pager remember?" he asked. And Zosia sighed. "Just stay there and I'll give them to you" she said and Guy sighed. "So you're not going to let me in? Or show me around your place?" he asked and Zosia shook her head. "It's not really my place. Its Arthurs actually I just moved into his spare room" Zosia said before she realised what she was doing, why on earth was she telling her father this? It was none of his business and to be fair she wasn't really happy with him now knowing her address.
Zosia soon returned with the things that he had asked for. "Still not going to let me in?" he asked and Zosia shook her head. "Crossing a line and finding out where I live is one thing, but letting you into my home is a different thing altogether. And anyway I'm not too sure Arthur would appreciate my father snooping around in his flat anyway" Zosia said trying to get rid of her father as quickly as possible.
"I don't think he would mind if you showed me around. Look I don't have to be in theatre for another forty minutes I'm sure a quick tour wouldn't hurt anyone" Guy said and Zosia sighed, rolling her eyes. "Fine only quick" she said as she removed herself from the door way and allowed her father in. Guy closed the door behind him as he did so,
"I was going to make a coffee, do you want one?" she asked him shortly later. "No thanks, it's a nice place you got here" Guy said as he looked around the flat. "Like I said its Arthurs flat. Not mine" Zosia said as she headed to the kitchen to make herself a cup of coffee. While she was gone, Guy noticed the stack of opened bills on the table. He knew that his daughter wouldn't take too kindly if she caught him snooping but if she was in some finance difficulty then he wanted to help.
So he picked up the first important looking envelope from the stack and began to read but he soon heard footsteps so he quickly placed the letter back down, but it wasn't quick enough and Zosia caught him red-handed. "what the hell do you think you're doing?" she exclaimed. Anger spilling into her veins she knew it wasn't a good idea to let her father in.
"Zosia if you're in some finance issue then I want to help" Guy said and Zosia shook her head. "When are you going to get the hint I don't need your help. I've looked after myself for far too long I don't need help" Zosia exclaimed. Looking at her father. "You might not, but your friend Arthur does. Look I'll be willing to pay the rent for both of you if it makes you happy" Guy said hoping his daughter would agree.
"We're only in this mess because we need another flatmate." Zosia said scowling at her father. "What about you, have you paid your student loan off yet?" he asked and Zosia scowled at her father. "I've paid nearly half of it back" she admitted and Guy looked up at her "I can pay the rest off for you if you like" he said and Zosia shook her head "I'm not a little girl anymore, aren't you supposed to be in theatre" Zosia asked, hoping that her father would leave.
"Yes I better be going but I'll write a check out, look you don't have to pay me back. I just want to help." He said, Zosia shook her head. Before Guy wrote the check out. "if you need anymore then you know where to find me" he said before he placed the check down and left. As soon as he was gone. Zosia closed the front door behind her before she picked up the check. That her father had left. He had given her and Arthur enough to cover both they're rents. But she was still determined not let him back into her life so easily.
