"Listen, I want full rights with Vanya. I am getting a lawyer, and I am coming for my daughter."
A male voice rang, followed by a click, followed by a dial tone. Anna's hands went cold and numb with fear and anger. Suddenly, the golden iPhone flew across the room, smashing against the tile of her bathroom floor. She watched as the glass screen shattered into a million pieces. She would probably regret that in a few days, but for now, it was all she could do to express the rage she felt inside. The arrangement Anna and Giuseppe had about the custody of their daughter had been wonderful for the first fifteen years of her life.
Anna had been able to take her child on the road with her during her modeling years. She was able to show her daughter the best sights in the world, such as New York Fashion Week, at such a young age. Vanya had been able to see Italy, eat real Italian and French food. She had been given the chance to travel to Africa, working in orphanages in order to give her a new perspective on life. Vanya had been able to learn many languages, meet people of all backgrounds, and learn how to be a strong woman.
Anna allowed Giuseppe visitation and allowed him to come along on certain vacation. She would rather have had Giuseppe watch their little one instead of a tag-a-long nanny. Apparently, though, that wasn't enough for him anymore. Anna knew that she could win; she had more money which meant a better lawyer. There was still something gnawing at her, telling her that he was going to win this time. The voice created a knot in her stomach, which caused the tall blonde to grip the skin of her stomach, knuckles turning white.
Obviously, the woman was used to being the one calling the shots. She was not used to people standing up to her, and she was not used to someone threatening to take her entire world away from her. She did have a vulnerable side, and Vanya's father had finally figured it out. Anna made her way over to the small fridge in her bedroom, pulling out a big bottle of Sangria. She popped the cork out using her thumbs as leverage. She threw her head back, dumping the liquid into her mouth, letting it burn down her throat.
After finishing off the bottle, an hour later, Anna was a little off her rocker. She felt good, happy. She felt as if nothing was wrong and a little dizzy. She also felt hungry, very hungry. She opened her door, peaking out to make sure no students or other faculty were out there to witness their drunken teacher. She quietly tiptoed down to the main kitchen, believing no one would be in there at one in the morning. No one was supposed to be up, period. They were all supposed to be locked away in their rooms, dreaming of their bright futures. Whether or not that's what they were actually doing was up for debate.
Anna flipped the light on, trotting over to the fridge. She flew the door open, the contents of the door jingling once the door made impact with the counter beside it. The loud noise caused Anna to flinch, letting out a small giggle.

all the pieces lie where they fell...

It was just supposed to be a favor. A couple of days managing Primrose’s kitchen while the head chef was on vacation. He didn’t trust any of his sous chefs to handle the task and was quite familiar with Monday’s skill and reputation. It was only natural that he’d asked the man to oversee his kitchen. Despite being swamped with planning his lessons and juggling his personal life he had agreed to the daunting task. Three days into the deal and Monday was already regretting his decision.
Managing the kitchen had taken up much more time than Monday had predicted. He’d hoped that he’d be able to set tasks and schedules and the staff would be able to stick to them. Of course, best-laid plans had a habit of being turned on their head. It seemed like every hour some sort of emergency arose and Monday would have to stop what he was doing in order to set things right.
Monday had owned two restaurants and he'd never felt like his staff had been as incompetent as the line cooks and chefs at Primrose. It was almost as if he'd signed up to teach a whole other sect of students. His frustration presented itself in his work, snapping at the men and women he was supervising and casting venomous comments about their craft and intelligence.
Guilt and anxiety made it difficult for the crocodile to sleep. When he looked at his phone and saw that it was nearly one in the morning all thoughts of gaining a restful nights sleep fled his mind. With a heavy sigh, he pushed himself from his bed and made himself decent, throwing on a pair of black lounge pants and a navy blue tank top. He skulked through the darkened halls of Primrose his topaz eyes dilating as he became acclimated to the near total darkness. His thoughts turned towards the kitchen’s inventory and the schedule that he’d already changed three times.
The clatter of steel and bottles roused him from his inner musings as he neared the kitchen. A scowl distorted his expressive lips as he looked up and saw the lights in his kitchen. He doubted that it was any of his temporary underlings. That would have been more initiative then he could see them mustering. He smoothed his features and walked forward, lightly opening the swinging double doors of the kitchen.
He smelled her before he even saw her. The scent of sangria permeating the air of the kitchen. His lip curled downward as he stalked through the kitchen towards the origin of the clamor and the intruder. He found her there, fridge door thrown open haphazardly, and a wry smile plastered on her delicate features. It was only there second meeting but it was also the second time Monday had seen Anna Smith in this state.
A dozen thoughts flashed through the man's head. Concern, confusion, irritation all fought for supremacy. In the end, cold professionalism won out. “Ms.Smith, you're up awfully late.” Monday stood with his arms crossed over his chest as he looked down at the woman. He refused to comment on the smell of wine on her breath. “I’m sorry to break it to you but the kitchens closed and a restricted area. I’m gonna have to ask you to-” Monday paused as he noticed something was amiss. The woman seemed disheveled, a far cry from her usual composure, and something was just ever so off about her posture. The stern look on his features melted away and the tension in his shoulders eased. “Is everything okay?”
