"Hello dear" Said a voice she recognized to be her father.
"Oh, hi daddy!" Said Elizabeth, her voice unusually high from nerves "How come your up so late?"
"It's funny your asking me that question" Said Paul, sounding every bit the disciplinarian "I'd ask you the same thing, if I didn't already know the answer"
"Um... I was just out... Um... Studying" Said Elizabeth, rather lamely.
Paul actually laughed at this response, though it was rather humourless.
"Its half one in the morning" He said "What exactly was Professor Gellar helping you with until now?"
Elizabeth considered playing dumb to this statement, but even she realized it would be futile and remained silent.
"Sorry Daddy..." She said finally, staring at her shoes "It won't happen again"
"This isn't the first time it's happened Elizabeth" Said Paul sounding frustrated "No matter what I say or do, you continue to defy me"
