"Allen! Allen!! Samantha yelled, but the line was already disconnected. Samantha started pacing back and forth. What could have happened? "Why was there noise before the line got disconnected?", Samantha thought.She thought of calling Allen back, but she decided against it. Then the thought of calling Kingston crossed her mind, but she didn't have his number. If Nancy was hanging out with Kingston, definitely she should have his number, Samantha thought, and immediately dialled Nancy's number."Hey Sammy, what's good" Nancy said."Nancy, I need your help with something. Can you send Kingston's number to me?. Allen and I were speaking on phone, then I heard some noises and the line got disconnected. I am afraid that something might have happened to him" "oh no, of course, I'll send Kingston's number to you immediately. I hope he is fine, Samantha" "I hope so too, thank you Nancy" Samantha said, before ending the call. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~Allen was on his way to his colleague, the one wh
Samantha had called Kingston, and he assured her that Allen could take care of himself. Immediately she dropped the call with Kingston, Allen's call came in. Although Allen said there was nothing wrong, Samantha didn't believe him. She knew that Allen was hiding something from her, or maybe because he didn't want to add to her worries, but either way, Samantha planned to get the truth out of him, later.Samantha walked to the living room and her father was seated on his wheelchair. Now that she thought of it, she had previously asked her father to help find her elderly patient's missing son. She didn't hear from her father, and that should have made her know, that something was wrong. Her father never wasted time in helping her find people, whenever she needed him to. She stood in the living room, beating herself up..She should have known better, she should have known that something was wrong , she thought.Samantha walked to her father and sat beside him, on a couch. She eventually h
"Sammy?, I think your father does not want to get surgery. I think he is afraid of the drugs he will have to keep taking, and then you talk about chemotherapy. Your father hates drugs and you know it. He also hates hospitals and now, we have to do what he wants" her mother said to Samantha, then turned to her husband."Honey? would you like to stay at home with me, than go to the hospital for the surgery?Her father blinked and Samantha was watching, in shock."Sammy, you see? We have to do what your father wants. We can't force him to get surgery. Let us do what he wants, Samantha" her mother said, rubbing her father's back.Samantha stood up, ran her fingers through her hair in fraustration. She was coming to terms with having to watch her father wither away, without getting surgery or doing something about his brain tumour. She shook her head, and walked so fast into her room. "Don't worry, honey. I'll go talk to her" Her mother said to her husband. ~~~~~~~~~~Samantha was seated
"Oh my gosh! I can't watch this! Nancy said, chuckling as she ran Into the house and closed the door behind her. Samantha kissed Allen, with a kind of passion that was bursting within her. She continued kissing him and Allen kissed her back. Allen tried to end the kiss but Samantha refused. He tried to take his mouth off hers, but Samantha won't let him. She needed more. She didn't want the kiss to end. This kiss felt like everything to her. It was comfort, it was peaceful and it knew no pain. She was free as she kissed Allen. She wasn't crying and she was doing what she wanted. Allen found it weird that Samantha wouldn't let him disengage from the kiss. She raised her hands to the back of his neck and tried to bring him closer, but Allen brought her hands down and stepped back. "What is Allen, you don't want to kiss me? is that it? she asked, with tears in her eyes. Allen saw the tears in Samantha's eyes. "Baby Doll, you know that's not true. I got the feeling that you were not
"My baby Doll, you must have cried your eyes out on this visit. If you are feeling this way, I wonder how your mother is feeling. She must be so devastated. Do you want me to stay here tonight? I can do that for you, just say the word" Allen said, running his fingers through her hair. "No, I they I should sort things out with Nancy. Let me talk to her tonight. I know she must be upset with me, For not telling her about my father. She feels disregarded and I regret not telling her. I was only trying to save her the stress of not running down to my parent's house. Just like I was trying to save you the stress, but you had other things In mind" Allen leaned over to Samantha's face. She closed her eyes and he planted a kiss on her closed eyes. " I Missed you so much. I know you didn't have the time to miss me, since you were running everywhere, because of your father" "I missed you, Allen.. Sometimes, I wished you were there with me. But I needed to do this alone..My parents are the w
Samantha Kept looking at the paper in her hand, not believing that the burglar who was written on the paper was Rose. What could Rose have wanted in her room. "What could Rose have wanted here, why my room of all places" Samantha said, still looking at the paper."That's what we have to find out, Doll. This Rose, do you know where she stays? Allen asked."No I don't, but I can find out. I can use Kay's feelings for me, and get him to tell me. It's worth a shot" Allen stood up from beside Samantha, and she stood up with him."No! that's not going to happen. I don't think I want you anywhere that son of a bitch" Allen said, turning away from Samantha.Samantha touched him by the arm, turning him to face her."I have to do this, Allen. There is no other way to find out Rose's address. I want to do this, and I promise you, I will be safe. Kay's not going to hurt me in anyway. Please let me do this" Samantha said."How are you so sure, that Kay's not going to hurt you. Do you trust him n
Samantha was shocked at this revelation. She didn't know that she had sidelined Nancy before now. Could Nancy be saying the truth? could she have been putting her relationships before their friendship? Samantha didn't even know the answers to these questions herself. She stood up from the seat in front of the dresser and walked to Nancy. She sat down beside her."Nancy, this is the first time you are saying this to me. If I was putting my relationships before our friendship, you should have said something. I may not have known this, but I always did my best, to make sure that you didn't feel sidelined. This time around, I never sidelined you, Nancy. Allen found out about my father, on his own and that's nothing but the truth, believe me" Samantha said, as she reached out to take Nancy's hand. Nancy tried to take her hand back, but Samantha wouldn't let her. "I don't want you to think, that I am jealous of your relationship with Allen. You know how much I tried to get you two togethe
"I am okay baby Doll. Although I can't say the same for them" he said."How? what do you mean" Samantha asked."I want to spare you the gory details, but if you insist, I can tell you what I mean" "Allen? leave no stone unturned. Tell me everything, as much as you can remember. Gory or not, I want to hear it" Samantha said. "If you insist, Sammy. The men who attacked me, they were three of them, and the three of them were bleeding form either the ear, mouth or from whatever part of their body that I can't remember" Samantha's eyes widened."Bleeding?.how was that possible, when they were three of them,. and just one of Samantha asked."I didn't do much, baby Doll..I only had to tell them, that I didn't want to hurt them. I gave the three of them enough time to leave and be on their way. They refused and charged at me.. I only had to defend myself, and the rest is history" Allen said, with a mischievous look on his face. With her mouth open with shock, Samantha covered her mouth wi
Two weeks after the explosion at the warehouse, Allen left the state. His supervisor had advised him to leave. He had been nursing his injuries from the explosion. They barely escaped. Fragment of an iron had pierced Into his back, making it hard to use his hands properly. Kingston was unhurt. He had told Allen, that Nancy was using him. She had made him fall In love with her, just to get information about Allen. He was hurt, but he was lucky to be alive. Allen came out of the hotel's veranda, he saw the city of Las Vegas and pedestrians walking about. He breathe in the fresh air and closed his eyes. With his eyes closed, he felt a soft hand, hold him from behind. "The night is so cold, but I think I like it" he said. "Like it or not, you must take me to dinner" Samantha replied, with her head rested on his back. Allen turned to face her. He held her face with both hands. "How are you feeling, baby Doll? Is there anything you want me to do for you? are you hungry? He asked. Sama
Allen walked out of his house, to Samantha's house. He got there to see Kingston, already waiting for him outside. "Kingston, what note did you see? Allen asked. Kingston handed the note to Allen. "Meet me at this address, and you will see all I have been talking" the note said. Allen raised his head to look at Kingston. "Who do you think left this note? he asked. "I have no idea, Allen. Do you think it's.........."Allen cut him off. "No, I don't think it's Nancy. It's not possible. Samantha has been through so much already. It definitely cannot be Nancy. She knows what Samantha has been going through, so no. I don't think it's her. But i need to go to this address. I need to see who it is" "You really have to be careful, Allen. The drug addicts and dealers are out to get you. Watch your back always and stay safe" Kingston said. "Kingston? Please watch my house, while I go check this place out. I need to know why this person wants to see Samantha. If there's danger there, I
Richard raised the surgical blade to his head, laughing. He looked at the police officers, then he turned back to Allen."Sorry, Allen. I can't be in a world where there is no Samantha. I can't be in a world where she has to be with another man. She was supposed to be mine. Now I can't even have her. I either go to jail and spend the rest of my life there, or I can go to eternity, where there will be no jail. Tell Samantha, that she was and will always be the best woman i ever saw In this life" Richard said, before he stabbed himself in the neck, laughing. The forced of the surgical blade on the Richard's neck, splashed blood on Allen's face. Allen ran to Richard, as he fell to the floor. He kept on laughing. "Put pressure on his neck!! the detective yelled. Allen was on his knees beside Richard. "Call the paramedics!! The detective yelled, but Allen turned to him, with his hand still on Richard's neck.."I don't think that will be necessary. He is gone" he said. The detective cu
Samantha covered her mouth with both hands, while she hid from Kris. "Who pulled her in like that. who Was she meeting and why was the meeting a secret." she thought.Samantha could hear inaudible voices from where she hid beside a building. She brought out her phone, put on the camera and waited. After few seconds, she saw Kris come out of the corner she was yanked into. Then the person she was meeting, followed. Samantha's eyes widened with shock..It was Richard! She yelled in her head. *Why was Kris meeting Richard? what business do they have together? these questions was in her head and Samantha won't leave until she finds answers to them. There and then, Samantha remembered what Richard had said to her on the phone. She remembered the threat he made. It all came back to her. Was Richard planning something with Kris? Samantha was still hiding. She took pictures silently. She needed evidence for whatever it is that Richard and Kris was planning, she needed to know, so she could a
ALLEN AND SAMANTHA HAD FINISHED washing up In the bathroom. He carried her, walked to the bed and put her down. He covered her with a blanket and turned to leave, but Samantha held his hand. "Don't leave.......I don't want to be alone, please? she said. "Baby Doll, didn't you say a while ago, you don't want us to live like a married couple? have you changed your mind? he asked, teasing. "I know what I said, Allen. Are you coming to lay with me or not.. You can leave if you don't.........."Before she could finish her sentence, Allen was on the bed. He raised the blanket up and slid Into to the bed. Samantha turned her back to him, and he grabbed her waist from behind, resting his head on her back. They didn't know when sleep came over and they caved in. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ALLEN WAS SNUGGLING SAMANTHA'S BACK. Someone was knocking, but he didn't want to wake up. He wished that the person knocking will just go away, but it didn't happen. Whoever it was, kept on knocking. Allen Looked at th
It was past 7:00pm, when Samantha changed into her night wear and her socks. She climbed under the bed covers, and applauded herself, for her maturity, and her ability to put the demands of others before her own. She had accepted Kris because of Allen, because she was in trouble. Being abused by her ex, must have tugged at Samantha's heart and she couldn't send her away. That will be heartless, she thought.Allen and Samantha had decided that he would sleep in the living room and she would take the bed. She didn't want them to live like couples, when they were not married yet. Her father would have had a fit, if he heard she was staying in Allen's house. She laid on the bed, and closed her eyes. She imagined herself in Allen's arms. She was having the same imaginations that Allen had. She was trying to put the imagination out of her mind, but her body has needs. Her body was making demand, but she was trying to put it away. Samantha drifted off to sleep, pleased with herself.She was
KRIS DIDN'T SAY A WORD to Richard. he was furious. "Didn't you hear me! I asked, if they bought your story, because I know Samantha. She will never turn down a stranded woman, or man. She is so soft like that. Now tell me, did your ex boyfriend believe you? he asked.Kris tried to break free from Richard's hold on her arm. Surprisingly, he let her go himself. He smiled a cocky smile..Kris was rubbing her arm out of pain, then she looked up at him."They bought my story alright, especially Allen. He used to adore me. So there's no way he wouldn't have believed me. As for his girlfriend, I don't know if she believes me, but she offered to give up her room for me. She don't want me staying at Allen's house" she said.Richard looked at Kris. He almost slapped her, but held his hand mid air. "I wish I could just twist that stupid mouth of yours. That was never our agreement! I told you to make sure, that you stayed at Allen's house. The bargain didn't involve you staying in Samantha's ho
Allen ran pass Kris, and was in front of Samantha's house."Doll! Sammy!! open the door!!! it's not what you think, please, open the door! He said, knocking so hard.Samantha stood behind her door, hearing Allen knock. "What am I even doing here. Why should I run. I should be getting an explanation from him, instead of hiding here. I didn't do anything wrong did I? she said to herself, before she opened the door.Samantha saw Allen standing there. He looked so tired. She walked to him and cupped his face with both hands."Allen? did I misunderstand the scene I just saw? Just say yes, and I will trust you and believe you" She said, smiling. Allen was surprised. He didn't expect her to speak to him so quietly and calmly. He expected her to flare up and scream, like most girls do. He was still thinking, but he came back to his senses and answered her question. "Of course Baby Doll! you totally misunderstood that! please trust me" Samantha put her hands down from his face, still smili
HEARING ROSE SAY, that her father deserved to sit in a wheelchair tugged at Samantha's heart. Allen saw how furious she was. "I am so pissed! I can't believe she would say something like that" Samantha said, almost in tears. Allen touched her hand as he drove. After few minutes, he was in front of her house. Somehow, Rose's comment about her dad had pierced Samantha's thick skin, that had always kept her tough. She shoved a hand through her hair, still sitted in Allen's car. "Allen, I don't want to be at the mercy of Kay and Rose anymore. We need to do something about them, before I do something that I will regret" She said. Allen turned to her. "Sammy, I don't want you to do anything. Do you hear me? do nothing. I will figure this out as soon as possible. Head into your house, I'll call you later" He said. Samantha looked at Allen, then she looked away. "Go on, Doll" he said.Samantha nodded and stepped out of the car. She walked to the front of her house, opened the door and
