Chapter 59: I will marry him!
"Yes." Samantha said and everyone's eyes widened in shock.
"What?" Alexi shouted at Samantha.
Liam and Cassandra looked at each other and smiled big.
"Sam, are you crazy?" Alexi shouted with anger.
"No, I'm not!" Samantha said Alexi and she can clearly see that Samantha is stopping herself from tearing up in front of her family.
"Sam, you know you don't have to do this." Alexi said and Samantha shook her head.
"Mom and dad are right! We need to be happy. We should let go of sad things and... Move on and that's... What I want to do." Samantha said and Alexi frowned.
Alexi is clear that she is not talking about the past which happened 10 years but talking about which happened 5 years ago.
"Sam, you know we love you and always want you to be happy?" Liam asked and Samantha nodded with a small smile.
"Yeah, Dad. I know and that's why I accepted to marry Johnson." Samantha said and Alexi anger raised just listening by Johnson's name.
Liam and Cassandra smiled and hugged Samantha and kissed her forehead.
"We are so happy for you. Thank you for accepting, Sam." Cassandra said and Samantha smiled and Alexi knows that she is not smiling from her heart.
"It's okay, Mom." Samantha said with a smile and Liam smiled big.
"Umm... I'm tired. I will go to my room now." Samantha said and Liam, Cassandra nodded their heads and Samantha walked upstairs to her room without giving a second glance back.
Alexi looked at Cassandra and Liam and their happy faces turned into sadness as they saw how angry Alexi looks.
"I can't believe you guys." Alexi said angrily.
"Alexi, understand..." Alexi cut off Liam in mid-sentence.
"No... I don't want to listen to anything. You just made her agree to marry some unknown man with your emotional speech." Alexi said.
"Alexi, it's not emotional speech. We just want you to be happy." Cassandra replied and Alexi chuckled.
"Happy? Let's see, how happy will Samantha be?" Alexi said and Liam and Cassandra frowned.
"Alexi, we know she will be happy with Johnson. He lo..." Alexi cut off Liam in mid-sentence.
"No, Dad. You are wrong in this and I will prove it to you." Alexi said angrily and walked away from there without listening to anything to Cassandra and Liam.
Liam just looked at Alexi walking away from there and signed.
"It's okay, she will come around soon. They just need time." Cassandra said and Liam nodded and with a small smile.
"But, I am happy that Sam accepted Johnson, Liam. Finally, Sam going to be happy with her loved one." Cassandra said with a big smile as a tear fall down from her eye and Liam turned towards her and took her face in his hands and wiped the tears.
"Yes, and it's a good thing. You shouldn't cry on that." Liam said with a smile.
"Yeah, I know but the circumstances which we went through aren't good. Just thinking about it... I feel scared." Cassandra said.
"It's okay, Cassandra. Only we know, what we went through and how we managed to our home in our worst situation. And it's past. Why thinking about it again? We are good now and happy." Liam said and Cassandra nodded and they both hugged each other.
Alexi walked upstairs and opened the door and Samantha looked up and saw her wiping her tears by sitting in the corner of her room.
Alexi walked inside and closed the door and locked it and walked towards Samantha and kneeled down to Samantha's level and hugged her tightly.
"Cry! Cry as much as you want. I am here and will be here for you always." Alexi said as a tear fall down from her eyes too and Samantha cried hard on Alexi's shoulder.
After Samantha calmed down, Alexi made her stand on her feet and made her sit on the couch and gave a glass of water and Samantha gulped down in one go and after relaxing Alexi started asking her questions.
"Sim, why didn't you tell Mom and Dad that you don't want to marry Johnson?" Alexi asked.
"No, Lexi. I can't. They look so happy when I told them I will marry Johnson and I don't want to see them sad." Samantha answered.
"So, you will sacrifice your life for our parents?" Alexi asked.
"No. I am not sacrificing my life, Lexi. I really thought to give a chance for a relationship." Samantha said.
"That's great Sam. But why Johnson? Why do you want to marry Johnson? You can also date some guy too and how can you marry Johnson without knowing anything about him?" Alexi asked.
"I know Lexi and don't know anything about him but I don't want to date him and go through the same pain again and when Mom and Dad asked me to marry Johnson, I was really shocked but again I gave a thought about it. I want Mom and Dad to be happy and they deserve to be happy. If they will be happy if I marry Johnson?
Then, I am ready to marry Johnson for our parent's happiness." Samantha said with a small smile.
"And As Mom said, Johnson is a nice guy and I want to give him a chance but it will take some time for me to accept him in my life. I don't know if he will try to understand me or not? I even don't know should I tell Johnson about my past or not? But I will do my duties for him as a... Wife.
I will do everything which he expects from me." Samantha said Alexi and she can feel Samantha's voice crack at the end.
"Sam, you can't do that. I will not allow you... I will make sure of it! And I will do anything to keep you happy." Alexi said sternly.
"Lexi, I am happy, and please don't create a scene in front of our parents, and don't be angry with them. They just want us to see happy." Samantha answered with a smile on her face.
"Sis..." Sam cut her off Alexi in mid-sentence.
"Lexi, don't talk anything now. I wanna have a nap. Please, let me." Samantha said and Alexi nodded.
"I also want to take a nap." Alexi said and Samantha chuckled and nodded.
They both got up from the couch and got under the covers and cuddled with each other.
"I am sorry for shouting on you." Samantha said.
"No, Sam. You didn't do anything wrong. I am sorry for behaving rudely with our parents." Alexi answered.
"It's ok but don't talk to them rudely again." Samantha said and Alexi nodded her head in Yes.
"I will miss this cuddle with you after marrying Johnson and leave this home." Samantha said with a chuckle.
"No, He can't take you away from me. You are Mine." Alexi said protectively.
"Oh really?" Samantha asked with a chuckle.
"Yes." Alexi said confidently.
"Hahaha... Sleep now." Samantha answered and they closed their eyes and drift off to sleep but Alexi promised herself to make Johnson life a living hell before going to sleep.
