Sometimes it got annoying, but what could a girl do? It was something she had to do...after all, earning her keep was very important. That was what she was meant for. Bring in more money, help dear old dad out. After all that was her job, wasn’t it?
Surely there was nothing wrong with taking a little off the top just to get a little treat for herself. She worked so hard after all. What difference did taking a couple for herself make? It was a reward. She deserved it for everything she put up with, right? Of course she did. As long as he didn’t find out, of course.
Her reward to herself had been just a little pastry--cheap enough that no one would notice anything missing from the money she was supposed to give him. After all, she’d destroyed the evidence that she’d even bought and eaten the pastry in the first place.
So of course, she sauntered back into her father’s shop, money in hand as she sang a little tune to herself.
“I’m baaaack,” she announced, half singing the words as she stepped into the doorway. She was in a good mood, really. But who wouldn’t be after getting to indulge themselves with a sweet treat? “Did ya miss me?” She already knew the answer would likely be no. After all, he barely noticed her unless she was actively bringing in money.
But nothing could ruin her day...or so she thought.
