She'd left Owen in the parking lot to park the car, having given him thorough directions up to the room. The horses were perfectly taken care of and such, so her mind was at ease on that subject - but she couldn't contain her nervousness. She knocks on her father's door and pushes it open a crack to be greeted by the angry face of her mother. The latter's bulk is shifted towards her daughter, her death grip becoming attached to the girl's tricep as she pushes and then pulls her into the hall and away from the man's screaming. Her bare knuckles connect with the cheekbone of her daughter in a backhand before the girl could say a word, the woman's own voice sounding in a hiss, "You think it's funny to keep me waiting? You think it's funny for me to have to put up with this? You think you're smarter than me?!" Of course they were just rhetorical questions, and the girl is rewarded with another backhand, the woman pretty freakish looking at this point. She was massive, so much different from her daughter that they didn't look related in the least. Her beady blue eyes contrasted sharply to Erica's intelligent brown ones. Her lips were drawn back as she seethed, hitting her daughter once more before shoving a book into her hands, "Go read this to him, get the damn man to shut up." And all this Erica took without a sound, she simply nods and enters the room, her wrist taken in her father's hand and held roughly, his gruff voice sounding, "Where have you been? Your mother is not good enough." She simply swallows before she speaks a bit, "I was at the stable." The man's jaw clenches and his grip upon her wrist tightens enough to be painful, "Start where we left off.." And the girl opens the book and begins to read.
