Chapter 22: Feelings?
Johnson saw Samantha going upstairs and just then Liam, Cassandra and Lucy walked downstairs.
Damon asked. "How is she, Lucy?" and Lucy replied. "Nothing to worry guys. It just stress."
Robert said. "Thank God!" and Damon said. "Yeah."
Liam said. "Johnson, please have a seat." And Johnson nodded and sat on the couch.
Liam said. "I'm so sorry. Because of us, you left your party." And Robert said. "Hey, Liam. We are a family. Don't say sorry. Alexi is like our daughter too." And Liam smiled and nodded.
Martin asked Johnson. "Bro, why are we on Caffeine by Amaxi penthouse? Do, Uncle Liam, own this Penthouse?"
Damon chuckled and said. "Not only Penthouse, Martin. They own Caffeine by Amaxi Hotels and Resorts."
Martin eyes widened and looked at Liam, Cassandra, and asked. "Omg... You are the founders of Caffeine by Amaxi?"
Liam shook his head and said. "No. My elder daughter, Samantha Julie owns Caffeine by Amaxi Hotels and Resorts."
"Julie?" Johnson, Martin, and Lucas asked at a time.
Damon said. "Yes, Julie." And Martin said. "Wait... I think I've heard that name before." And Liam chuckled and said. "Alexi Julie, an A-lister of Hollywood."
Martin said excitedly. "Yes... Yes, Alexi Julie. Damn, She is an Angel. I always wanted to crack her but I heard she is off-limits from so many members. So, I left alone." And Robert spill the juice and coughed on the drink which he was drinking and looked angrily at Martin.
"Yes, Even I heard about her too that she is off-limits. It's bad that an A-lister is off-limits." Lucas said.
Damon said. "Boys, stop it. She is Liam's daughter." And Martin and Lucas's eyes pooped out and looked at Liam and he nodded in Yes and said. "Yes, She is my younger daughter."
Lucas said with a guilty voice. "Shit... I'm so sorry, Uncle Liam. I really didn't mean to say that." And Martin said. "Yes, Uncle Liam. I'm so sorry. I really didn't to say that. Please, forgive us."
Liam nodded and said. "It's okay, boys. I understand and I know, Lexi is a beauty and how every guy wants her to be his. And, it's her profession to look beautiful every day, every second."
Lucas said. "We are so sorry, Uncle Liam." And Liam nodded and said. "It's okay." And walked out of the living room to Balcony.
Robert said. "You bastards, you messed it up." And got up from the chair to go to the balcony but Cassandra's words stopped him in a midway.
Cassandra said. "It's okay, Robert. Leave him for a few minutes. He will come around himself. Liam is just worried about his daughters." And Robert nodded and said. "I understand." And Just then, Samantha walked downstairs in her double cotton pajama set and looked around and asked. "Mom, where is Dad?"
Cassandra stuttered. "Umm... He... he..." And Samantha said. "I know, where he is!" And started walking towards the balcony.
Cassandra said. "Sam, don't. Not now." And Samantha said. "Mom, please." And Cassandra walked towards her and whispered. "You know about your Dad very well, Sam. Please not now. Not in front of the guest. We will talk about it later."
Sam said. "Fine, Do as you wish." And walked away from there to the kitchen.
Johnson saw Samantha storming to the kitchen and Cassandra turned around and said. "I'm sorry. Don't mind it. It always happens between us." And Everyone nodded and Cassandra excused herself and walked to the Balcony.
Damon said. "I don't know When things will get alright between them." And Lucas asked. "What do you mean, Uncle Damon?"
Damon said. "There are some things that happened in this family, Lucas. It's so hard for them but this family is brave enough to face them. And these two girls are so strong. They faced so much in their lives but never ever lose hopes on their lives."
Thomas said. "Looks like, they suffered a lot in their lives." And Damon nodded and said. "Yes, Thomas. There are so many deep secrets buried in their lives which none can except would happen."
Lucy said. "But these two girls still stood strong and supported their Parents and made proud of them today."
Robert said. "I would be so blessed if I had a daughter like them." And Thomas said. "Don't worry, Robert. Your sons will bring you a daughter's like them soon." And Robert nodded.
Damon said. "Come on, Let's take fresh air outside. The New York night view looks awesome from Caffeine by Amaxi." And Everyone nodded and walked out except, Johnson, Lucas, and Martin.
Lucas said. "I really didn't expect that Alexi Julie is Uncle Liam daughter." And Martin said. "Even me, Shit... I fucked it up. Uncle Liam felt bad I guess." And Lucas nodded and Johnson rolled his eyes and got up from the couch.
Lucas asked Johnson. "Where are you going?" And Johnson said. "To grab some water. Wanna come?" And Lucas shook his head. "No." And Johnson walked to the kitchen.
As Johnson walked towards the kitchen, he heard the muffled sounds of sniffs and small sobs. He walked inside the kitchen and saw Samantha crying. He walked towards her and called her name. "Samantha."
Samantha's breath hitched as she heard Johnson calling her name. She quickly wiped her tears and turned around and came face to face with Johnson.
Johnson saw her wiping her tears away and he walked close to her and just then she turned around and came to face to face.
His heart pained seeing her tears in her eyes. He kept his hand on her face and wiped the tears which are forming in her eyes but still Samantha's tears didn't stop and fall down more and Johnson just one thing which came into his mind at that time and hugged her tightly.
Samantha's body flinched at his sudden hug but Johnson hugged her tightly and Samantha badly wants someone to hold her tight and concern her. She clutched his suit collar tightly and hugged him tightly. Her legs were giving up on her but Johnson held her tightly in his arms and soothed her keeping his hand on her head and kissed her hairs.
Johnson just hugged Samantha tightly and don't know why he is feeling differently about her. He just wants to take her all worries away from her and keep her safe in his arms and Samantha felt safe in Johnson arms and cried her heart out.
