While still mulling on the system's words, I see Paul nearing the outer door so I sprint to the elevator and push the down button. As the elevator reaches the ground floor and the doors open, I smile at him and wave my hand.
"Hello, Mr. Roberts!"
Paul nods in greeting and enters the elevator without stopping to think why would I be inside an elevator going down just to go up again and presses his floor button. System, buy a second suggestion spray, please.
[Suggestion spray acquired.]
[Remaining PDP: 5875]
Thank you, now attach the Pin of Trust.
[Pin attached to user's jacket.]
I guess is a good thing that he always uses the same jacket… ok, time to get serious!
I materialize both cans of suggestion spray in my hands, then call to Paul.
"Oh, Mr. Roberts, I am thinking of making a donation to your school!"
Like a shark smelling blood, Paul does a 180 to stand face to face next to me thus getting a double dose of spray on his ugly mug, causing his expression to go slack. Perfect!
"Paul, your daughter requires discipline that you are unable to enforce and you know I am the best candidate to teach her obedience, so send her to my home with an excuse. She will remain with me until her attitude has improved even if it takes weeks, so be sure to arrange for extended leave from school and don't tell anyone that she is with me or why." There!
The effect of the sprays passes and Paul regains his senses.
"Mr. Ben, are you really willing to donate to the school?"
"Yes, Paul, I am thinking about it seriously. Well, might as well tell you why. You see, next month I am marrying Katie Lawrence, and her daughter Hope is a student in your school. Having seen what great job you do of raising young ladies, I think it would only be proper to contribute."
Paul is wagging his nonexistent tail happily.
"Wow! Congratulations! I am very happy for you!"
His tone changes as if he just had an epiphany.
"Mr. Ben, I wonder if I could ask you for a huge favor…"
I smile nonchalantly at him.
"Sure, go ahead."
"You see… I am not much of a disciplinarian, and my daughter is out of control… I fear I spoiled her too much, overcompensating for the absence of my late wife. I realized later that she does not obey me at all and does as she wish and I am afraid that this will impact her future…"
I nod gravely.
"I see. This is indeed troubling. If she is too spoiled, she will have to face a lot of problems in her future…"
"Exactly! And well… I believe that you are better suited to discipline her, so I would like to send her to you so you can teach her until she becomes more obedient…"
"Wow! That is not a small favor you are asking here. We are talking about having your daughter in my home for an extended period of time. Are you sure about this?"
"Please, I am at my wit's end. This has started impacting my work as well…"
I sigh theatrically.
"Very well, I will help you. But if word of this gets out, people will get the wrong impression. I mean, her father sends her to live with a single man…"
"Thank you! And don't worry! I will arrange an extended leave of absence from the school, saying that she is going to stay for a month or possibly more with her relatives in another town. This way, nobody will get curious."
"All right, but if your daughter is as spoiled as you say, I will have to use some extreme methods, are you ok with this?"
"This… yeah, it is for her own good…"
"Fine, in the afternoon send her to my apartment. Don't tell her why, just make an excuse, I will handle the rest."
Paul smiles happily at me.
"Thank you! I am very grateful! Thank you!"
The elevator arrives at his floor so Paul walks out happily while I continue going up.
System, I don't care to see some dude's stats, so just let me know if something important changes.
[Yes, user.]
I stop on Katie's floor and go inside for a quickie and to let the girls know what is going on since they will not see me much in the next few days. I do promise Hope however that she can come up from time to time to 'play' with me, and possibly with Hester. I head back to my home and settle in my den, the cameras focused on Hester's house.
And now we wait…
True to his words, around five in the afternoon, Paul goes to Hester's room, holding an envelope. Hester is lying face down on the bed browsing what looks like a fashion magazine.
"Hester, dear, I need you to do me a favor."
"What? Daddy, I am busy now!"
"Sorry, honey, but I really need you to go upstairs to Mr. Ben's home and bring him this envelope, then wait for him to read and sign it and bring it back."
"What? No!, Daddy, I will not go! Go yourself!"
Paul gets angry.
"Listen here, honey. Mr. Ben has decided to make a big donation to the school and in this envelope are the papers to finalize the deal. Once he signs it, I don't care if you even spit in his face, but until then, you will put on your most charming smile and move your butt upstairs!"
Hester gasps at her father's tone, as he has never talked to her like this.
"Daddy! I… I hate you!"
"Honey, do this and daddy will double your pocket money. If you don't however, I swear that I will not let you buy new clothes for a year!"
Hester is now terrified of his threat. For her, not going shopping at least twice a week is torture, much less for a year!
