Chapter 83 - Dinner!

Johnson reached the basement and messaged Alexi and soon Alexi came down and sat in the passenger seat and they drove off to the restaurant.

"So, I heard from Samantha that you got the tender?" Alexi asked and Johnson nodded.

"Yeah. We are going to start working soon at Amaxi." Johnson answered and Alexi nodded.

"You really accepted my sorry?" Alexi asked.

"Yes. Why are you doubting it?" Johnson asked.

"Because I feel so guilty for talking to you so rudely." Alexi said and Johnson chuckled.

"It's okay, Alexi. Don't feel like that. I can understand." Johnson replied.

"Thank you." Alexi said.

"Why?" Johnson asked.

"For understanding us." Alexi replied with a smile and Johnson smiled at Alexi.

They soon reached the restaurant and walked inside and sat on their chairs and ordered their dinner.

"So, Is Samantha home?" Johnson asked.

"No, She still didn't come home." Alexi replied.

"Oh, okay." Johnson said.

"Why? You wanna talk to her?" Alexi asked with a wink and Johnson chuckled.

"Who doesn't want to with the love of his life?" Johnson asked and Alexi smiled and just then Alexi phone rang.

"It's Sam." Alexi said and answered the call.

"Hey, Sam. Thank God! You called me. Where are you until now?" Alexi asked.

"I came out for some important work. Don't worry." Samantha answered.

"Where are you now?" Alexi asked and Samantha sighed on the phone.

"Uncle Damon law firm." Samantha answered.

"What are you doing in Uncle Damon law firm?" Asked Alexi.

"Lexi, I already said I have important work to do." Samantha said and Alexi rolled her eyes.

"Fine, but when are you coming back to the home?" Alexi asked.

"It will be quite late I guess." Samantha answered.

"Okay." Alexi said.

"Had dinner?" Samantha asked.

"No, I just came out with Johnson for dinner as Mom and Dad left for home and I was bored in the penthouse." Alexi answered smiling at Johnson.

"Oh, Dinner with Johnson?" Samantha asked.

"Yeah... Do you wanna talk to him?" Alexi asked.

"No... No." Samantha answered.

"Why?" Alexi asked.

"Umm... I... I don't kn..." Before Samantha completes her sentence Alexi said.

"Johnson, Sam wants to talk to you." Alexi said to Johnson and Samantha's eyes widened.

"Me?" Samantha heard Johnson saying.

"Alexi, don't do this." Alexi heard Samantha saying on the phone.

"Yes, she wants to talk to you." Alexi said to Johnson sheepishly. 

"Alexi, I will see you at home." Samantha said on the phone.

"Okay." Samantha heard Johnson saying and She sighed and Alexi handed her phone to him.

"Well, you both talk. I will use the restroom until then." Alexi said and Johnson nodded with a small smile and walked away smiling to herself.

"Hello." Johnson said on the phone.

"Umm... Hi." Samantha replied on the phone.

"I heard, you didn't come home until now?" Johnson asked.

"Umm... Yeah. I have got some work to do." Samantha answered.

"You just landed morning, Samantha. You could have taken some rest." Johnson replied.

"Well, I can but it's kind of important." Samantha said.

"Oh, okay. Are you still in Uncle Damon's firm?" Johnson asked.

"Yeah..." Samantha replied.

"Did you had your dinner?" Johnson asked.

"Umm... Not yet. I and Uncle Damon will have it soon." Samantha answered.

"Okay, have it soon." Johnson said.

"Yeah..." Samantha replied and there was a comfortable silence between them.

"I have a few things to talk with you. Can you please come to the Hotel tomorrow?" Samantha asked.

"Yeah, sure. I will." Johnson answered.

"Thank you." Samantha said.

"No problem." Johnson replied.

"Okay, then. I will see you tomorrow." Samantha said.

"Yeah... " Johnson replied and when Samantha is ending the call she heard Johnson call her again.

"Samantha." Johnson called.

"Umm... Yeah." Samantha replied.

"I love you."  Johnson said and there was again a comfortable silence between them.

"Sam..." Johnson heard Damon voice calling her on the phone.

"Yeah... I will see you tomorrow." Samantha replied.

"Yeah, Bye." Johnson said.

"Bye." Samantha replied and ended the call and Johnson kept the phone aside and looked around for Alexi and saw her talking with someone at the end of the hall. Johnson couldn't see the person as the other person back faced towards Johnson.

Johnson saw Alexi hugging the Man and smiled at him and bid bye and walked over to him and sat on the chair.

"Who were you talking with?" Johnson asked.

"Ahh! A Colleague." Alexi answered and Johnson nodded.

"Let's have dinner." Johnson said and Alexi nodded.

"What Sam is saying?" Alexi asked and Johnson shrugged.

"Nothing much. She told me to come to the hotel tomorrow to talk about a few things." Johnson said and Alexi rolled her eyes.

"This girl will not change. Ever!" Alexi said.

"Why? What happened?" Johnson asked.

"Oh God! You don't know. This girl is such a workaholic." Alexi answered and Johnson chuckled.

"Really?" I asked.

"Yes. Sam can't leave work for even a single day but I was shocked to see that Sam didn't work for almost 3 days." Alexi answered.

"Oh... Then, wait and watch. I may change her." Johnson said and Alexi smiled.

"Really?" Alexi asked and Johnson shrugged.

"Maybe." Johnson answered and Alexi chuckled and nodded her head.

"What are your hobbies, Johnson?" Alexi asked as she took a bite of her food.

"Nothing much. I like to play the piano, basketball, and playing video games with Martin. I will play with him only if I get bored." Johnson said with a chuckle.

"Sam also loves Music but because of some circumstances, she couldn't learn it. Btw... Sam doesn't like to play video games or basketball. She really hates them and mostly tries new dishes in the kitchen but I am so into basketball and video games. Thank God! I got someone to play basketball with me." Alexi said and Johnson laughed.

"What Samantha still likes?" Johnson asked.

"Well, she doesn't like expensive things at all. She curses me all-day whenever I bought expensive things." Alexi said and Johnson laughed.

"Mister, I guess your closet is full of expensive things. Just be careful with her after you get married to her." Alexi said pointing her finger at the expensive shirt, watch, and shoes which Johnson wore and he laughed.

"Yeah, I will." Johnson replied with a smile.

"Is Martin home?" Alexi asked and Johnson nodded my head in Yes.

"You know what, Johnson? I used to have a crush on Martin." Alexi said and Johnson raised his eyebrow with a smirk.

"Don't smirk. I used too but not now." Alexi said.

"Why not now?" Johnson asked.

"I don't know but I hate his guts now." Alexi answered and Johnson laughed.

"Well, he hated your guts too." Johnson replied.

"Ahh! Whoever knows me personally will surely hate it. I know but I really Martin now." Alexi said and Johnson chuckled.

"And don't tell him that I hate him. He will again become an angry bird." Alexi replied and Johnson laughed.

"Angry bird?" Johnson asked.

"Yeah, he looks like that when he is angry." Alexi said and Johnson laughed again and started having their dinner.

"Well, You took a really lot of time to accept me for your sister!" Johnson said as he took a bite of his food.

"Well, I really didn't think you will be good because I have seen many rich guys in my life, in fact, I meet many rich people daily but they are so rude and look disgustingly with the people who are low in front of them." Alexi said and Johnson looked at her.

"In my 10 years of experience in Hollywood, I have seen many members. I mean a many. They may be rich but they are just so low at their heart and I hate those kinds of people and that's why I have a bad impression on rich people." Alexi said and looked up at Johnson.

"Yeah, I agree that we are rich but we don't have this from our birth. Sam and I worked so hard for this and made money and struggled a lot. We took so much hate from people and called out as gold diggers and some made fun of us too but we just kept our souls in our hands and worked hard but you know why?" Alexi asked and Johnson shook his head in no.

"Just to see our parents smile on their faces." Alexi said and Johnson smiled.

"If we want, we could have stopped all things we were doing at that time and would have lived in whatever we have but we didn't. We stepped ahead and proved the members who called us wrong. We did all these because we want to see the happiness in our parent's faces. We wanted to make them proud of us and we did." Alexi said as her eyes get teary.

"Hey, it's okay." Johnson said as he kept his hand on her hand.

"Yeah." Alexi said with a small smile.

"Things happened in our life but we are strong enough to face them. Somethings... " Alexi stopped in mid-sentence and looked up at Johnson seriously.

"Somethings happened in our both lives when we are struggling but our Parents don't know about it. We don't want them to feel guilty or bad about the things which they are not the reason off. But, it happened. Which changed our lives and we stopped trusting people... Well, it's still not easy to forget about it." Alexi said and Johnson frowned.

"Alexi, Can I ask you something?" Johnson asked Alexi and she nodded her head in Yes.

"Can you tell me, why Samantha doesn't believe in love?" Johnson asked.
