BXBX NOVEL Chapter 23: Love?
Johnson caressed her hair and kissed her hair and Samantha closed her eyes while he kissed her hair and slowly moved away from him and wiped her tears away.
"I'm... I'm sorry." Samantha said as her heart started beating so fastly.
"Sorry for?" Johnson asked
"For... For... Ruining your suit." Samantha said as she looked down. Not daring to meet his eyes.
"Samantha, look up." Johnson said and She looked up slowly.
"I don't know, why you are crying for! And I'm no one to question it and talk about it." Said Johnson and walked close to her.
"And crying is okay. If you feel good after crying then cry until you feel good. I will be with you." Johnson said as he tucks the loose strands of hair behind her ear which is falling in her face.
"Why?" Samantha asked looking deep in Johnson eyes.
Just then, Someone cleared their voice and they both looked at the sound and saw Lucy and they both stepped back.
Lucy said. "Sam, Alexi is woken up. Go and talk to her. I will make some soup." And Samantha nodded and walked out of the kitchen without giving another glare to Johnson.
Lucy walked towards Johnson and said. " You better explain to me what was going on here." And Johnson rubbed his back of the neck with his hand with nervousness.
"I don't know, What's going on with me too." Johnson said as he grabbed a glass of water.
"What do you mean?" Lucy asked as she took out the ingredients for soup.
"I don't know, Aunt Lucy. I just met her today and the moment I saw her, My heart started beating fast... I just can't take my eyes off from her beautiful and innocent face." Johnson said with a big smile and Lucy smiled at him.
"My heart pained when she is crying. I don't know the reason, why she is crying but I just want to take her all worries away from her and just want to keep her safe in my arms." Johnson said and looked at Lucy.
Johnson asked. "Why Aunt Lucy? Why am I feeling like this? I just meet her a few hours back then why? I don't know anything about her then why I am feeling possessive and protective over her?"
Lucy shrugged and said. "You should clear it yourself, why are you feeling like that, Johnson." And Johnson said. "But... Aunt Lucy, I didn't felt like this ever before... Between is she already in a relationship?" And Lucy looked at him and asked. "What?
No, she is not! Who told you, she is in a relationship?"
Johnson said. "I heard her saying in her phone to someone that I love you too, Noah." And Lucy laughed and said. "Noah? Seriously? Noah is the CEO of Caffeine by Amaxi Hotels and like a brother to Sam and Lexi." And Johnson embarrassed.
Lucy asked. "You felt Jealousy when she says I love you too someone?" And Johnson signed and said. "I don't know, Aunt Lucy. I really don't know, What's happening with me? I just meet her today and I don't know why I am feeling like this."
Lucy said. "No one will feel like that until they meet there loved ones, Johnson." And Johnson looked at Lucy with his eyes wide and asked. "Aunt Lucy..." Lucy cut him off in a mid-sentence.
"Samantha went through a lot in her life. That made her stop believing in love. Not only she? Even, Alexi don't believe in love. Samantha is even scared to meet with strangers guys. I was shocked to see Samantha moving comfortably with you." Lucy said and looked at Johnson.
"Let's just say, the girls and Liam and Cassandra suffered a lot. I mean, a lot. You know when Sam and Lexi are teenagers they didn't even spend a dollar on themselves and supported their parents at a very young age while other teenagers at their age enjoy their life and take money from their parents and spend money like water." Lucy said as she started preparing soup.
"The nearest ones didn't even look back at them when they need most. But, the girls proved them that they don't them in any way. Samantha and Alexi look happy always but actually, they aren't happy from inside." Lucy said with sadness in her voice.
"Samantha and Alexi worked hard supported their parents in good and bad days too but they don't believe in love because they saw so many relations broken in front of them and it's all fake for money. So, they think that all relationship is fake and there is no true love in this world and when Samantha and Lexi were in high school..." Lucy stopped in mid-sentence.
"What happened, Aunt Lucy?" Johnson asked.
"When Samantha and Lexi were in high school something bad happened which also changed their perspective on love and until now, it still hunts Sam." Lucy said with tears in her eyes.
"What is it, Aunt Lucy?" Johnson asked.
"It's not my place to tell you, Johnson. When the right times comes, the person will tell you." Lucy said and Johnson nodded.
"I will wait for it, Aunt Lucy. But let me tell you one thing. Whatever, her past maybe? I will respect her and I am not going to judge her in any way. Because It's her past and we can't undo it.
I will always be with her to support her as long as she wants me too in her future." Johnson said and turned back to walk out of the Kitchen but stopped in his way as he looked at Cassandra standing a few steps away from him.
"Cassandra..." Lucy called.
"Its okay, Lucy. I heard what Johnson said." Cassandra said.
"Believe me or not but I'm serious, Aunt Cassandra." Johnson said and Cassandra gave a small nod with a small smile and Johnson walked out of the Kitchen.
"So?" Lucy asked Cassandra.
"So, What?" Cassandra asked.
"Isn't it clear that he fell in love with her?" Lucy asked.
"I don't know, Lucy. They just meet today. Did he tell you directly, He loves Sam?" Cassandra asked.
"No. But, he told me how he feels for her but he still needs to figure out why he feeling like that for Sam." Lucy said.
"Let's see. Will he figure it out or not? And what he does, if he really fell in love with Samantha." Cassandra said and Lucy nodded.
