All Chapters of Love And Trouble: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

NANCY HAD JOINED HER MOTHER in the ambulance, while Samantha drove behind them. They got to the hospital's entrance, with the ambulance blaring so loud. The medics brought Nancy's mother out from the the ambulance, and they took her inside the emergency room. Samantha and Nancy ran behind them. "Stay back here ladies, we will be with you shortly" a doctor said to them as they took Nancy's mother into the emergency room."What could have happened to her Samantha? What am I going to do. What if something happens to her. I don't think I can live with myself if anything happens to her. I just wish we had come earlier. It's all my fault, I wasted a lot of time to get to her""Don't say that Nancy. It's never your fault, don't forget that. Your mother will be fine, and nothing will happen to her" Samantha said, holding Nancy's hand.They both held hands, waiting for the doctors to come back to them. After what felt like forever, a doctor walked out of the emergency room, heading to Samanth

"Your father? Are you sure? Allen asked."I am very sure Allen. Although he changes his voice to trick me sometimes, but I am very sure that's my father""What do I do, should I stay and say hello to him? Allen asked, looking confused. Samantha gasped."Are you crazy? You can't say hello to my father now. He is the most strict man I know. He is definitely going to make a big deal out of seeing you in here""Really? Then what do you want me to do? Allen asked, seemingly afraid of the man Samantha talks about."You need to hide quickly! Samantha said, pulling Allen by the hand, leading him to her room."Hide? Are you being serious? Can't we just tell him that I am a friend or something?"No Allen, my father will know it's not true. He has this way of finding out the truth about things and it scares the crap out of me most times, so no, we can't go with your idea, hiding is the only option right now"In Samantha's room, Allen looked at Samantha, smiling."Why are you smiling, this is no

Samantha walked into her house, moved straight to Nancy's room to see her sitting on her bed, looking depressed. "Nancy? Why are you sitting like that? You are beginning to scare me you know that right?Nancy looked at Samantha and smiled."Has your father gone? She asked.Samantha shook her head, before sitting close to Nancy, so she could narate what happened outside to her."Can you believe my father pretended to have left after I bade him farewell?Nancy's eyes became wider with shock."What! She screamed."Yes Nancy, he was outside, waiting for Allen to come out. He had gone into my room to survey for a man like he always does, but when he couldn't find anyone, he left. I was overjoyed that my attempt to hide Allen worked. My joy was cut short when we stepped outside the house to see him there, looking like he was on duty, looking for evidence! It's so crazy, Nancy"Nancy was now smiling like she meant it, and that gave Samantha some sense of relief. She sometimes didn't know ho

Samantha saw how uncomfortable Allen's reaction was to her question, so she changed the subject. "Oh, now I remember. Please give me a minute, I need to call my father real quick" she said."Go ahead, take your time" Allen replied.Samantha picked up her phone, dialled her father's number."Well hello there 'daughter' I thought we cut of ties? do daughters who cut off ties with their father still call them on phone? he asked.Samantha rolled her eyes at her father's questions. She answered her father's questions with questions of her own. "Do fathers whose daughter cut of ties with, still visit their daughter's house unannounced? or even pick up their calls? Samantha heard her father grunt to her question. She smiled, looking at Allen and he smiled back. Allen looked at Samantha as she and her father played word games with each other. Now that he met the man, it was no surprise that Samantha always stood up to him. They were a weird father and daughter duo, Allen thought. He stopp

The person On the line was yelling and cursing, which made Allen take the phone out of his ear for some seconds. When he was sure that the caller had stopped yelling at him, he put the phone back on his ear."Flexing spider, I can't believe how irresponsible you are. Why haven't you reported back to base for a month now. Do you know I can sanction you for this? the caller asked."I am sorry about that, sir. I had some personal issues to sort out" Allen said."Personal issues! we all have personal issues, so don't give me that crap!! report to base immediately or face the consequences!! the his supervisor said, ending the call before Allen could say another word.Allen looked at his phone, and then turned, facing Samantha's house. "I am sorry sir, I would rather go on a date with a Beauty next door, than report back to base. This is a perfect opportunity for me, I can't miss it for anything in the World. I will gladly face any consequences that may arise from this" Allen said to himse
