When I woke up the next morning, I felt wonderful. I was excited to see Dr. Masters again. And I excited to miss his dog Oscar too. So I got dressed and went out to the parking lot. Then my phone started to ring. It was Sam.203Please respect copyright.PENANAEdr1FO1gDk
203Please respect copyright.PENANA89pkIScrBA
"Where are you?" he asked.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAwJc65cSwCh
"I'm at the parking lot," I replied.
203Please respect copyright.PENANA0759LH8X32
"Good," he replied. "I'm coming over right now."
203Please respect copyright.PENANA8FVU7J2it5
I hung up the phone. Sam came to my car almost immediately. He opened the door, and I climbed into the passenger seat.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAsNnWuv81p2
"Are you ready?" he asked.
203Please respect copyright.PENANA4pmBzq21HU
"Yes," I replied. "Let's go."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAk9cslAEru7
Sam drove us to the faculty housing where Dr. Masters lived. As soon as we arrived, he walked inside. I followed him. He unlocked the front door and pushed it open. Then he turned to me.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAr1PJeuv78b
"Come in," he said. "Oscar's already inside."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAC9NkcumG4l
I followed Sam inside. I heard barking noises and saw a dog running around the living room. He looked like a miniature version of a Doberman Pinscher. His fur was black and red. He had large eyes and a stubby nose. And he seemed to be quite friendly, although he barked loudly when he saw me. "Where is Dr. Alan?" I ask Sam.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAkvikx58bzO
"He's not well, he's checking checking in at the hospital," he replied.
203Please respect copyright.PENANASR2pZInxQN
So I followed Sam to the kitchen and sat down in a chair. I was surprised by how small the house was. It consisted of a single floor with two bedrooms and a bathroom. There was a garage and a backyard. I wondered where the dog slept.
203Please respect copyright.PENANA3AzoroyRvE
"I can make some coffee if you want," he said. "Would you like some?"
203Please respect copyright.PENANAWCzHeIUCAv
"Yes, please," I replied.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAJOHozjEt6t
"Okay," he said. "I'll be right back."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAnH1IC8ziHM
Sam returned with a cup of coffee in his hands and handed it to me. I thanked him and sipped the hot liquid.
203Please respect copyright.PENANATnYCaMgQwQ
"You know I always wanted to stay beside you, right?" Sam ask me.
203Please respect copyright.PENANACqDXOMq18N
"Yes," I replied. "I rather stay with you for the rest of time."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAGuRBDWUD51
"I would too." he replied.
203Please respect copyright.PENANA9qdGBkTCfa
Then he took out his keys and walked toward the bedroom. I followed him into the room. He closed the door and walked over to the window. Then he opened the blinds. Looking outside, I saw that it was a beautiful day. The leaves were turning yellow and orange. The air was crisp, and it smelled wonderful.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAZXHyW9HdvR
"Look at this view," Sam said. "Aren't you impressed? I live right on top of the hill. You can see everything from here. I even have a telescope. Sometimes, I sit up here and watch the sunset."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAUzKu0lrCGU
"Wait!" I said. "If this is your house, then why is Oscar here? aren't we supposed to visit Alan house?" I am a bit confused, and I didn't realize how much I missed Sam until now, yet something doesn't seem right.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAaLtryyk8O7
"Because he belongs here more than anywhere else," he replied. "I try to bought Alan's apartment days ago, I offer him cash that he can live while finding a job for 10 years at least."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAiZTMs4YFrM
Then he looked at me. I could see that tears were filling his eyes.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAXf6O6jhq2r
"There isn't anything in the world that I'd rather do," he continued. "But Alan refused because he doesn't want to move. Because his motivation is all insidious. he wouldn't even consider changing his mind. Even The reason why he was expelled was that the principal was informed of his previous behaviour around other female students, and when he sight set to you, he left me no choice. so I had to decommission him. He's now in a coma at the hospital due to an unusual brain shout down."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAjXdkrArnUI
While Dumbfounded by what I just heard, he moved closer to me. He put his arms around me and held me tightly.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAVCBMpJ69pP
"will you marry me?" he whispered. "I want to live a happy life together as husband and wife."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAhlSCeDoijI
"Yes," I whispered back. "I'll marry you."
203Please respect copyright.PENANA6OX4DhvMMk
We kissed passionately. And then we embraced each other and fell asleep.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAOHKqsJBcPl
You never thought Sam was just like you, a being who will get rid of anyone if they're in their way, yet he does it in a way that the law can't catch up with him. And now that you know the truth, you can't believe your eyes. "Come on, come on," you say in denial of what you witnessed, but you know that it's true. Yet in some strange way, you feel like that this is what you ever wanted. You didn't want to know the truth, but you did. even if you know Alan ture motive before Sam, you wouldn't even know what you would do, to get rid of him like it like Sam, return to my old ways and kill him just like cleaning up another trash,Now that you know, you can't stop yourself from becoming the monster you always believe yourself to be.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAgO5KW1ybzb
The next day, Sam brought me to the hospital. We went inside the building and approached a nurse's station.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAmmgMWjbMpC
"Excuse me," he said. "Is Alan Masters here?"
203Please respect copyright.PENANA112jtPANSV
"Dr Masters is in intensive care," she replied. "He was shot last night in a robbery attempt."
203Please respect copyright.PENANARrFpKIqu7o
"Oh my God," Sam replied acting shocked. "Are you serious?"
203Please respect copyright.PENANAJMCOS7wG1M
"Yes sir," the nurse replied. "Please follow me."
203Please respect copyright.PENANA8Fmj78sTD3
She led us down a hallway and knocked on a door marked "Intensive Care." She then opened the door and let us inside. Inside, we saw Dr. Masters lying in a bed with tubes connected to his body. He was unconscious. A doctor was working on him.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAngYkxglIaC
"He's been through a lot," the nurse said. "But I think he's going to pull through. He might be in a coma for a few weeks, though."
203Please respect copyright.PENANA0hyy6J8cEG
"Has he regained consciousness?" Sam asked her.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAdl7jy5P1uS
203Please respect copyright.PENANA2wq2BPunaJ
203Please respect copyright.PENANADTX4OEHypY
"No," she replied. "And I don't know if he will."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAbRlTjEKzmF
"I hope so," Sam replied. "How long has he been like this?"
203Please respect copyright.PENANAAw9igSMgvc
"Since yesterday afternoon," she replied. "But he was shot during the early morning hours."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAOnB1WKxNSa
"Who did this?" Sam asked. "Was it someone who worked here?"
203Please respect copyright.PENANAedeUAnitbl
"It appears so," she replied.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAE4XgVlUjkv
"What happened?"
203Please respect copyright.PENANADur1sbt585
"A man tried to rob Dr Masters," she replied. "But he shot him instead."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAy7zRZwDXzg
"Did the robber take anything from him?"
203Please respect copyright.PENANAHYAPL0KeJs
"No," she replied. "He just ran away."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAMopumNFV1n
"Thank you," Sam said. "Is there anything else I need to know before I leave?"
203Please respect copyright.PENANAUtvfS0P3JS
"Not really," she replied. "Just try to visit him every once in a while."
203Please respect copyright.PENANA707ecRGYPg
"I will," Sam replied. "Thank you."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAt1CBcHXrCn
We left the room and returned to Sam's car. Then we drove back to the university. Once we arrived, I decided to pay my tuition fee. Then I called Sam and told him that I was done.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAYhKz9IanN6
"Okay," he replied. "I'll pick you up in half an hour."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAVLIwE5W6Rz
I waited for him at the same place where he picked me up on our first date. And about thirty minutes later, he showed up. He opened the door, and I got into the car. Then he drove us back to his house. He parked the car in the driveway, and I got out. I walked up to the front door and rang the bell.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAP7uON7ce8n
Soon, Sam opened the door and stood in front of me. "Did you bring Oscar along?" he asked.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAQcniiOLbuw
"Yes," I replied. "He's sitting in the backseat."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAW4x0NHfGMF
Sam smiled. "Good," he said. "Then he's all set."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAcW7orstaDz
He took my hand and led me inside. He locked the door and turned on the lights. Then he pulled out a ring box from his pocket and opened it. Inside, I saw a diamond ring. I couldn't believe my eyes.
203Please respect copyright.PENANA7akOlX9BDw
"Will you marry me?" he asked.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAXQAfV5ir0H
"Yes," I replied.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAeQHQHDBNCL
"I love you," he said.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAAikG29BT2E
Then he slipped the ring onto my finger. I grabbed it and kissed him deeply. We continued kissing as we walked down the hall and into his bedroom.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAWoUeFCzk1m
He pullback and ask " Do you want to tell your stepfather about our engagement first?"
203Please respect copyright.PENANA4HhOC0IpH4
"No," I replied. "I want to surprise him."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAJMwEplQzzb
We walked out of the bedroom and back into the living room. We sat on the couch and watched TV. Then we began to kiss again. It was just like on our first date, except this time we had a reason for it. Then Sam started to unbutton my shirt. I undid his pants, and he slid them off. Then we continued to kiss passionately.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAQuN27LgLpZ
Afterwards, I rolled over on top of him and straddled his waist. Then we embraced each other and fell asleep.
203Please respect copyright.PENANA5LM9yFiv77
Over the next few weeks, we had sex several times. Each time, I felt happier and happier. I loved being with him. And I was very glad that I married him. My stepfather, however, wasn't pleased. He never liked me dating Sam, and he made that clear to me.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAzTs3v0RUyV
"Why didn't you tell me about this sooner?" he asked me one day. "I'm tired of hearing about that bastard."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAj1a80pIiyx
"Sorry," I replied. "I'm just used to keeping things from you. I didn't want to worry you any more than I already have."
203Please respect copyright.PENANABz6kWzx4E1
"Don't be such a wimp," he replied angrily. "Tell me everything, and I won't bother you anymore."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAXnEydpLejO
"Okay," I replied. "I did something huge."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAwpIt2HFyMS
"Like what?"
203Please respect copyright.PENANAYDYLfYu3Pt
"Well," I replied. "Sam and I got engaged about three weeks ago."
203Please respect copyright.PENANATPs0elaMey
"Really?" he said in surprise. "Did you tell your mother?"
203Please respect copyright.PENANA66vIuL2pPj
"No," I replied. "I don't want to hurt her feelings. She'll be upset enough as it is."
203Please respect copyright.PENANA3DHQDGuAXj
My stepfather sighed. "I suppose I can understand that," he said. "But I still don't like it."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAD6kFqiWQgE
"I guess you don't," I replied. "I only told you now because I knew you wouldn't approve."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAo8TYQywg49
"You're right," he said.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAVeQ8nSgLSe
"But I can can tell by his eyes, he just like us, only in a different aspects." He kinda relief when he said that."
203Please respect copyright.PENANADWhSYJ6dAo
"It's true," I replied.
203Please respect copyright.PENANA65G5ncIDPb
We both laughed. After a while, he stopped laughing and said: "You know, I almost feel sorry for your mother. She loves you so much, and yet she can't express it."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAM37qklaXpU
"I know," I replied. "But I guess that's just the way things are."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAxPDfu6oS3r
"Maybe not forever," he said. "Once you marry Sam, she'll be the happiest woman in the world."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAN58sqTvGKJ
"I hope so," I replied.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAgBtIMOXOlN
"And don't worry about your stepfather," he continued. "One day, I'll accept Sam just like you did, just not now."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAFxugkLZBPo
The next day, I went to my mother's house and told her everything. She cried and hugged me tight. But after a while, she calmed down and smiled.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAuBI1H4oFux
"You have nothing to worry about," she said. "I will never betray you or disown you. And Sam and you will be happy together. I promise you that."
203Please respect copyright.PENANACG35yatpBc
I nodded. I knew she meant it.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAIagEjhDTyX
"Now," she continued. "Where is this Sam?"
203Please respect copyright.PENANAZqYdIMM0NV
"He's here at home," I replied. "He came to see me just now."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAYZ3hqXBdxE
"Oh," she replied. "That's nice. Can I meet him?"
203Please respect copyright.PENANAdUBE4PsWxU
"Of course," I replied. "Sam, this is my mother."
203Please respect copyright.PENANA7Yg00rmhXX
"Mrs. Mari," he replied. "I'm Sam Terzo."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAzsU9WEPKUF
"Nice to meet you," she said. "I wish you both well."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAjmpY5VeYTU
Sam shook her hands, and we introduced each other. Then she left for her apartment.
203Please respect copyright.PENANAIkKKa2nPSo
"So," I said to Sam. "How did it go?"
203Please respect copyright.PENANAgx5fwh3QM3
"Great!" he replied. "She was really happy."
203Please respect copyright.PENANAXq3BCnspdj
"That's good," I replied. "You did the right thing."
203Please respect copyright.PENANA63rZta7DNu
We hugged each other and kissed. Then we began to make love again. We made love all day and most of the night. Finally, we fell asleep in each other's arms.
