_________________________

I was getting ready to do my performance for the show, putting on my makeup and making sure my hair was just right till I looked perfect and ready to go, and I was right on time too because one of the stage helpers came to let me know it was time for me.

I smiled and nodded as I got up from my seat and went onto the stage acting my heart, putting everything I had into my performance. And judging from the audience's reactions they were loving it, it made me want to smile but I couldn't that would be breaking character and I just couldn't do that. 

Some time passed and finally the show ended and the actors (including me) stood on the stage and bowed as they flew flowers our way and applauded our performance. I looked out into the audience smiling when I saw a face I never thought I would see for the rest of my life.

He was more wrinklier than I remembered with extra added white to their hair, his dark blue eyes stared at me with mix emotions but I didn't care I quickly departed from the stage heading to my dressing room and as I was about to undress the very person I didn't want to see got in.

I glared feeling beyond piss as he stood by the door. "What are you doing here?" He looked of to the side ashamed before straighten his posture and holding his head high.

"It's been years and I came here to apologi-" I clenched my fist not caring in the slightest to let him finish his sentence.

"I don't care! You can take your apology and shove it" Feeling angry I stepped closer to him with tears threatening to fall but I held them back not wanting to let a single one fall in front of this bastard. 

"Four, four years" I threw up my hand holding up a four. "And now is when you came back? Why huh? It's not because you love me or want your daughter back, you made it pretty clear you didn't want me in your life the day you disowned me" I looked away for a split second as I recalled the events of that day.

"You only came here because you want to sucker me into the family business and I want no part of it, all I want to do is act" I pointed to the door. "Now leave!"  He was reluctant but eventually did so, closing the door quietly.

I gave my back to the door and stood there for a few minutes before getting changed and left heading home, it was a one bedroom apartment and kind of small but enough for me but that's probably because I don't spend much time in here. It's mostly spent outside at the park or somewhere I can comfortably practice my lines. 

I tossed my keys onto the stand as I took off my shoes heading directly for my chair by the dinner table, I placed my elbow onto the table and my cheek on my palm as I looked down onto the faded green table as I thought back to that day.

"ENOUGH! You are to take over the business" My Father shouted as I had just got back from an audition that he some how found out about.

"But I don't want too Dad! I want to be a famo-" I was cut off by angered Father.

"You will do no such thing!"

"Watch me!" I marched towards the door.

"If you step outside that door you will be dead to me" I paused for a second as I registered his words, I thought it over and with a quick flick of my wrist I turned the doorknob and opening the door.

"Then I'll tell Mother you said hello" I stepped out slamming the door behind me.

That was four years ago and this is the first time since then that he's contacted me so forgive me if I feel that it's too little too late,as I am now I want nothing to do with him. I just don't believe he's changed, I'm sure he just wants me back so he can force me back into the stupid business. 

I don't want to run it, it's not my dream and obviously not what I want for my life. I sighed getting up and heading to bed without dinner, seeing him made me lose my apatite.

If I had any dreams I sure don't remember them as I woke up and did my morning routine before heading out , I made the usual stops before heading to work when I arrived their were cops all over the place. I ran over to Misa a fellow actor who was standing by watching the police and questioned her on what was going on.

"Oh ____ they found a dead guy in the backstage... in your dressing room" My eyes widen as I turned back to the building and spotted the body.

"Dad?" I ran over to him, shock to see him in such a state. It made me regret turning him away and not letting him say his piece who knows maybe he wasn't trying to get me back in the business but rather just trying to have his daughter back in his life? I don't know but...but seeing him lying dead just made me wish I gave him a chance maybe he would be alive right now, maybe we could have started over.

"Ma'm was it your dressing room that his man was found in?" I nodded and he pulled me aside for questioning it almost seemed like I was a suspect and I get why, he was my Father and we were not on good terms and he was found in my dressing room yeah not exactly looking like I'm innocent here.

But they didn't arrest me or anything since there was no evidence pointing towards me plenty of people saw me head home especially since I signed some autographs on my way there so I was free to go. 

They assured me that they would do their best to catch whoever did it but it wasn't enough, I mean no offense to them but most of their case are left unsolved, I needed someone with a good track record someone I was sure could solve this thing and catch my Father's murder.

But who? I had intentions of going to a nearby library and look up the best detectives around with some very thorough research I found someone that fit what I was looking for. I immediately went to their base of operation, it was a very nice looking place on a semi-empty street. 

It was mostly all bricks and a beautiful white door with a golden color knob, I knocked on the door and with the slightest touch it opened and I know I shouldn't enter without permission but I did anyway. It was poorly lit and it stayed that way till I made a left turn and saw a single light source emitting for a doorless doorway.

I head to it with caution feeling slightly frighten that this could be like a show I did a few weeks back where this female went into the home of a stranger when she saw his door open only to find the man strangled not exactly the same reason why I entered but enough matched for my mind to think of it. And it was making me more than a little scared.

When I reached the doorway I spotted a male surround by sweets on the floor with a laptop as the only source of light in the room. He must have heard me because the odd sitting male bent his neck back to look at me as he raised a piece of candy above his lips before dropping them in.

Once he was finished with the candy in his mouth he spoke.

"We're closed"...
