Present!

Samantha looked up at Johnson and saw him looking angrily at her. Samantha closed her eyes knowing that Johnson going to yell at her that he is gonna leave her and she is a bitch for not telling him all these before their engagement.

​​

"Please... Don't yell... At me for not telling you all these." Samantha stuttered badly as tears fall down from her eyes.

"I will tell you everything now." Samantha said and wiped her tears away and looked at Johnson.

"After the... rape, I... Got... Pregnant." Samantha dropped another bomb-making Johnson eyes wider.

"But, I... I lost the baby in my womb... With the hands of my... Boyfriend before he knows that he is going to be a... Dad." Samantha said with tears as she clutched her stomach.

"Leo and I fell in love in our high school but he was my senior. Our relationship was good until he got to graduate from high school. I don't know, what he was doing after he graduated. I asked him many times but he would never answer my questions. But, he used to come and meet me regularly. So, Noah started enquiring about him, and then we got to know that he is working for some illegal business." Samantha said as she wiped her tears away.

Samantha looked up at Johnson with her eyes wide and saw his eyes teary but his face clearly shows anger.

"After knowing his job. I tried to leave him but he didn't leave me. I tried to be away from him as much as I can. But, one day. He begged me to meet him. So, I accepted to meet him and then..." Samantha cut off in a mid-sentence as tears started falling down from her eyes.

"He treated me to not tell anyone about this but if I tell anyone then he said, he will spoil Alexi's career and fame which was reaching high and I lied to my parents that I got into a little accident." Samantha said looking at Johnson.

"But, after whatever happened he didn't appear again in front of me. But, the scar which he left me on me is still fresh in my heart and soul."

"After 3 months of rape, I got to know that I'm pregnant with 1 month. Yes, it was a mistake but I loved my child and I'm happy that I am going to give birth to a baby. I want to keep it even though, it's a mistake. I would have answered my parents if I have a child. But, Leo took that little thing away from me. He doesn't know, he is going to be a father. Maybe, he would be good if I told him." Samantha said as tears fall down from her eyes.

"I didn't tell anything to my parents nor anyone else about the rape or the baby. Everything is going well until Leo showed up again in front of my home."

"We sent Mom and Dad on vacation and then I and Lexi were home. He came to meet me but I was scared that he may hurt me again or tell everything to Alexi. So, I made some excuse with Alexi and again went with him but he again took me to the same abounded house." Samantha said with her heavy breath.

"I was scared that He again tries to do something and he did which I already expected. He again tried to molest me but suddenly, Alexi came from nowhere and pushed him away from me."

"He slapped Alexi and tried to choke her. I was numbed. But... Suddenly, Leo's mom beats on his head with a flower vase and the blood started coming out of his head." Samantha said as she is out of breath and Suddenly, Johnson took her in his arms and made her feel safe.

"Shhh... It's okay. Calm down." Johnson said and Samantha nodded.

"Leo was dead in his Mom's hands and she sent us away from there. After that, Lexi took me to Aunt Lucy Hospital and she did everything to save my baby but she... Couldn't." Samantha said as she cried in Johnson's arms.

"Aunt Lucy called Uncle Damon, Noah, and Andrew as soon as she got to know about my health. Everyone was shocked and angry for not telling them anything about Leo or the baby. But, I took the promise from them to not tell our parents anything about these things, and until now, it still buries inside us." Samantha said with tears.

"Shhh..." Johnson soothed her.

"Xavier was Leo's friend. He told me to be careful with Leo but I never listened to him for which I regret it." Samantha cried as she gripped Johnson's suit in her hands.

"I killed me, my soul, and my baby. He killed everything in me. And I'm empty now. I don't have anything in me. He said, no one can love me as he does because I'm not born to love as I can't satisfy anyone." Samantha said as she cried in Johnson's arms and Johnson closed his eyes as tears formed in his eyes seeing her crying badly in his arms.

"I want love. I want to love too but I don't know how? I don't know if anyone accepts me or not? Because he crushed my love for him and they is no love in my heart now. There is nothing left." Samantha cried.

"I know... I'm... not... Pure. But, please... Don't... Don't hate me. You are the only one... To Whom I got close to... After 7 years. Please..." Samantha said with tears and Johnson took her face in his hands.

"Listen, carefully. You are pure. I still love you from my heart, Samantha. I don't care anything now. What matters to me now is You. And Only you." Johnson said hugging Samantha tightly to his heart as he closed his eyes and his tears fall down from his eyes. Samantha is shocked to see Johnson in tears for her and a smile spreads on her face when he said, he still loves her.

It pains him that she went through that but at the same time, he wants to kill that bastard with his bare hands for touching his love. He curses himself for not begin there for his love when she needs him more than anything.

"You still... Love me?" Samantha asked with a heavy heart as tears ran down from her eyes and Johnson opened his eyes. He looked down at her and took her face in his palms and looked into her eyes wiping her tears.

Samantha still wants love. She wants to feel real love. She wants to feel special. She wants to know how does it feel to talk with someone with so much love. She wants to know how does it feel to have someone who takes you in his arms before sleeping. She wants to know what's it's like to wake up next to the man she loves and all that hopes she got from Johnson and now, she wants him to say just Yes.

"Yes. I love you." Johnson said looking into her eyes and more tears fall down from her eyes.

"I love you and I will keep loving you until I die. You are so strong and brave. You didn't stop yourself even after whatever happened to you and moved forward and made your name in the society and I am proud that my fiancee is a strong, brave, and independent woman." Johnson said with a proud voice.

"Whatever happened is not your mistake. You are brave enough to overcome it and I'm really lucky to have you in my life." Johnson said as he wiped her tears away and kissed her forehead.

"As I said already, I will make you fall in love with me and make you believe in my love. I will show you what is love and how to love from now on." Johnson said with a big smile.

"You are not empty. You are good and filled with love but you just have to share it with me. I agree, you have flaws but I like them because they made you strong today."

"I want you in my life. You are the only person who captured my heart and if possible, I will go to any extent to get your love and heart for only me. Because you are mine from now on." Johnson said as he took her face in her palms again.

"I will just ask you one thing from you. Please forget about your past for me. Because I don't care about your past when I'm going to share the future with you. It was past and not your mistake. I will help you overcome it. Trust me." Johnson said with a smile and wiped the tears which were again started to fall from Samantha's eyes.

Samantha saw the love in his eyes when he is talking to her and it sparks when he said I love you and proud of her. Her heart melts when he said to her to forget about the past because it's not her mistake. Samantha is happy that he accepted as she is even though she is not pure. He accepted her and that what matters to her.

Samantha just kept staring at him and don't know what got into her seeing him and suddenly she pressed her lips against his lips before she realizes what she is doing!
