Carlos served a plate for Sam and she started eating.
“God! I hadn't had your food i n ages, Carlos. I've missed you s o much, man” said Sam a s she took a mouth full of that delicious food into her mouth.
“Right. He's a great cook. I never thought I would find somebody s o special i n my life” said Charlotte a s she kissed her future husband's cheek.
“I'm glad t o see my best friends together a s a couple. By the way. How did it happen?”
“I'll tell you everything, but first, You should know I just called Aháva. Dihanna answered and...”
“Who's Dihanna?” Asked Samanta, interrupting Charlie.
“Dominik's wife” responded her friend. Sam shivered.
“Right. I forgot h e was married” she muttered. “And? What happened? What did she say?”
“The girl knows… and she's shocked. Dominik i s packing bags like a crazy person, saying he's coming and bringing Aháva with him.”
“My! He's still i n love with you” commented Carlos.
Charlotte and Sam gave him a quick look.
“What am I supposed t o do now?” Questioned Sam.
“Now you wait, girl. Wait” h e urged.
“I have t o call Teresa. And my parents. They need t o know I'm okay.”
“Agree. Finish eating and do it” said her friend.
Samanta finished eating and took a shower. Charlotte lent her some clothes and she took a quick nap. Adasha headed back home.
She made it through with her sister, after a couple failed attempts, because Teresa thought this was a very nasty joke. But a s soon a s she embraced the truth, her joy was immense. Knowing her sister was alive brought back the happiness she had lost almost three months ago. Immediately, Samanta called her parents and gave them the good news. Her poor father almost had a stroke and her mother cried like a baby from the overwhelming joy. Her family agreed t o come visit her a s soon a s possible.
While Sam rested, Carlos and Charlie were watching TV. But they only talked about how amazing it was Samanta was still alive and well. It was a true miracle.
Suddenly, a sounds from Charlotte's laptop caught their attention.
“It's Aháva!” Said Charlie t o Carlos, who turned down the TV.
“What does she say?” Asked Carlos, anxious
“She wants t o talk t o u s stat...”
“Answer. She must b e s o confused.”
Charlotte clicked the “answer incoming video call” button.
“Hey princess! How are you? Look how big you got” said Charlie while she placed the laptop o n her desk.
“Hello, baby girl!” Greeted Carlos, trying t o hide how nervous h e was.
“Hello” Aháva seemed down. “I need you t o b e honest with me” said the girl o n the computer screen.
“Tell us. What i s it?” Charlotte and Carlos knew where this was going.
“I want the truth about mommy. What happened, where i s she?”
“What did your father say, honey?” Asked Carlos.
“That she's alive and she wants t o see me, but I think h e lost his mind and h e doesn't know what he's saying” Carlos and Charlotte exchanged confused looks. What i s going on? Why are you s o quite? Answer me.”
“Honey, your mother…” Carlos shook his head. “Well. Your father…” h e could not articulate, noticing the surprise i n Aháva's face and how she set her eyes o n something behind him. Actually, someone.
“Oummi!” The girl started crying.
“My beautiful girl.”
A voice behind their backs made them turn. Sam was standing right behind them, watching her daughter cry uncontrollably, o n their screen.
“Mommy, It i s you. Praise Allah” the girl dried her tears with her hand. “Step up, mom,. I need t o see you.”
“My love. My face changed a little, don't b e scared.”
A few burn scars marked Samanta's pretty face.
“I don't care. I want t o see you” demanded Aháva.
Carlos and Charlotte stood up, leaving room for Samanta t o sit down.
As soon a s Aháva got a good glimpse of her, she cried and stroked the screen. Even with those horrible marks o n her face, Samanta was still beautiful.
“Stop crying, love. I'm with you, again...”
“I missed you s o much, mommy.”
Charlie was touched by the beautiful scene and shed some tears, too.
Carlos hugged her.
Once the video call was over, Aháva ran out of her room, looking for her father, who was still i n his room, making a phone call, but, the moment h e sensed his child, h e left that aside.
“What's going on, my love?” h e asked.
“You were right. Sorry I doubted you” she ran and hugged her father. “We have t o see mommy. Please, take me t o see her.”
“Yes, honey, we will.”
Dihanna, who was standing i n the doorway, felt her heart break i n a thousand pieces. After s o many years, she understood. With all the time i n the world, with all the distance, nothing could ever make Dominik Weigand stop loving Samanta Andrade. h e never stopped loving her and h e never would.
With all the pain i n her soul, and the greater good i n her mind, she took a decision.
She loved Dominik, and she wanted him t o b e happy…
…even if that was not with her.

“Sorry, Dominik, you have t o stay, you have a contract t o fulfill. Two more games and you can forget about us, if you will” said Ewald.“Ewald, I need t o take my daughter to…”“No. Didn't you have enough with all the money you had t o pay earlier this year? I know your bank account wouldn't miss another few thousand Euros, but … Come on, Dominik! You can wait a couple days.”“Ewald you need t o understand…”“Yes.

Mr. Ihshan Mobarek welcomed Samanta i n his office. Although h e was still upset from being deceived like they did about Aháva. h e was fond of Samanta, and knowing she was alive actually made him happy. She was the closest thing h e had t o his son, after Maher made it very clear she would not return, after a heated argument they had after Amir's funeral.“Mr. Ihshan, I must apologize for…” Samanta stumbled upon her own words.“Don't worry. Let's not talk about that” Mr. Mobarek interrupted.“I am sorry” she insisted.“It was all my fault. I never paid him enough attention t o him. Maher told me everything. h e loved you s o much, that was the only way h e thought I would allow you t o marry him. At first, I did not get it. I asked myself, what does h e see i n her?

"Good morning, Mr. Hallagan. Do you already have what I asked for?!" Dihanna asked once in the lawyer's office. “Yes, Mrs Dihanna. Are you sure about this?" "Nope. I'm not sure, but I know it's what's best for everyone. I don't want to be a hindrance to anyone anymore," she said as tears threatened to well up in her eyes. Hallagan handed her a folder, she took it and without further ado, left her lawyer's office. Once inside her car, she placed the folder on the passenger seat and burst into tears. She vented all that pain, for not being loved by the man she adored. She knew that Dominik would never dare leave her, not because he truly loved her, but because it was his way of thanking her for so many years of dedication and dedication. However, she didn't want that. She didn't want crumbs, she didn't want anyone's leftovers. She was aware that she couldn't condemn her happiness and summarize it as a loveless marriage. He picked up the folder and began flipping through its contents.

I turned to the man who was talking to me. There was something in that voice that made me evoke a thousand memories. I looked at him carefully for a while, because although his face was very familiar to me, I couldn't place him. I opened my eyes like saucers and my heart stopped for a fraction of a second when I recognized the owner of those green eyes that were looking at me. In front of me was the personification of all my fears, traumas and insecurities. The man who served as a benchmark to compare all the people who came into my life after him. It was a beautiful vision, and at the same time a nightmare come true. “Antoine,” I said his name with difficulty. If the mere memory of him stirred up a lot of emotions in me, can you imagine “what his presence did to me?” The imposing figure of a six-foot-tall man lay before me. His eyes were greener than I remembered them and he had a beautiful smile (the one that brought out a couple of dimples in his cheeks) plastered on his face. He

I shook my head hard to concentrate on my friend's voice. She kept talking, but I stopped listening to her for a moment because I was thinking about Harvey, the gorgeous blond I met two months ago on one of my many girls' outings with Gabrielle, and who I started dating four weeks ago. He was divorced and had two young children. All my life I was reluctant to have anything with a man with children, because my policy was always: If I can buy a new car, ¿why buy a used one? This thought became ingrained in me as a result of living with my stepmother. It's not that our relationship was bad, but I remember a couple of times I tried to make her life miserable, just for fun. I was afraid that divine justice would take its toll on me for those years of rebellion and headaches I'd caused Valerie. But there was something about Harvey that appealed to me so much. He was very direct and upfront. When he approached me, he didn't do it with the typical cliché phrases that all men use to approac

She was silent, watching as that handsome man walked away. She didn't understand why she couldn't stop looking at him. She had seen handsome men many times. His father lived surrounded by them. Athletic men with heart-stopping butts. However, there was something about… Damn! h e didn't tell her his name a n d h e wanted very much t o know. h e hit his forehead as h e remembered how h e treated him. "How stupid I am. At this rate, I'm going t o be alone." She couldn't help but feel like a fool for being so rude t o him. Perhaps his intentions were sincere… or perhaps not. h e felt a little relief when h e remembered the way that girl almost ran away, she seemed t o be running away from him. Maybe h e was a lout a n d deserved every one of his mistreatment.Anyway, h e decided not t o think about it a n ymore.
