"Ms. Alexi, this is for you." The assistant said as she handed alexi the flower bouquet.
Alexi looked up at the bouquet and frowned seeing her lily flower bouquet.
"Who is this from?" Alexi askes taking the bouquet from him.
"There is no name on this but there is a card for you in this bouquet." he answered.
"Alright." Alexi replied as she took the flowers from him and he walked out of her room closing the door behind him.
Alexi took the card from the bouquet from the flowers and opened the card.
she frowned deeply as she read the card.
"Hope you like these flowers… look forward to your career… be careful with every step you take." Alexi read the card.
"Who sent this? There is no name either?" Alexi asked herself.
"Umm…this is Sam I guess… she knows I love lily… that is why she sent this I guess…" Alexi said to herself with a smile and kept the flowers in the vase.
She grabbed her phone and dialed Samantha with a smile on her face.
Samantha answered the call in a few rings...
"Hey, Sam..." Aexi said on the phone.
"Finally... huh? Your anger gone on me?" Samantha asked.
"I was never angry with you... And thank you for the flowers..." Alexi answered, making Samantha frown at the other side.
"Huh? flowers?" Samantha asked.
"Yeah… You sent flowers right... Lily... They are beautiful... you have sent me a card too…." Alexi said, making Samantha frown deeply.
"What card?" Samantha asked.
"Wow... you are talking as if you didn't send any... you want to surprise me right? that is why you don't have your name on the card." Alexi said, making Samantha more frown.
"Here... the card says... Hope you like these flowers… look forward to your career… be careful with every step you take." Alexi read the card making Samantha wide her eyes at the other side.
"Umm... Umm…" Samantha stuttered.
"Who would send this if not you? Tell me?" alexi asked and Samantha forced a smile.
"Yeah..." Samantha answered, making alexi smile brightly.
"I am really sorry." Alexi said, making Samantha frown.
"Why are you saying sorry?" Samantha asked.
"I was rude to you yesterday... Wasn't it?" Alexi asked.
"You are not, Alexi. It was me who tried to trigger you…" Samantha answered.
"No... You should have been triggered more by this... I know how things are hard for you… But still I behaved like I was the person who triggered a lot… But I know, whatever I did with Leo was wrong… But, whatever he did with you was way more wrong… I just did that because I can't see someone ruining my sister's life… How can I just sit there and see him hurting my sister?" Alexi asked.
"I know… I can understand... If I was in your place… I would have done the same for my sister… I can't just let someone hurt the person who is in my place either… you did nothing wrong… whatever we did was for self defense… we did it to save ourselves…" Samantha answered.
"But this society won't think like that,Sam… I have been hurting myself for the past 5 years… I can't forgive myself for doing such a thing… I killed a person… I am a murderer… If this gets out… Then my career would be in the trash… Whatever I have earned until today… Would be nothing… The people who used to love me will hate me to the core…" Alexi said as tears rolled in her eyes.
"Alexi, stop talking like that.." Samantha replied.
"I can't, Sam… I just can't… I just can't help but think like this... What if something like this happens?" Alexi asked making Samantha sigh on the other side.
"Alexi, stop thinking like this... I won't let anything happen to you like that. You getting it?" Samantha aksed making Alexi chuckle.
"I know... You will protect me from this world... But Sam... Don't do it. No matter what! Because I deserve this... I killed him. It's not something small thing..." Alexi was cut off by Samantha shout.
"Just shut up... Okay? Just shut up... What nonsense are you talking about?" Samantha asked making Alexi take a deep breath.
"Just shut up... Dare you take out something like this out of your mouth... I will come there and kill you!" Samantha replied making Alexi chuckle.
"Seriously?" Alexi asked.
"Yes... I am not joking." Samantha answered.
"I already told you that, I won't let anything happen to you... You are so precious to me." Samantha said making Alexi sigh.
"I don't want you to get in any trouble anymore... Because the person who got in this more is you. And only you!" Alexi replied.
"No... It's us. We both suffered equally... I am not the only person who went through a lot, Alexi... You suffered a lot with me too... You were the person who bought out of my past even though you were suffering... I know, how hard things for you... But... Listen to me... We equally suffered a lot... We can't just lose hopes..." Samantha said Making Alexi frown.
"I don't think, we should lose any hopes in our lives... We need to fight... We need to fight for us. For ourselves... We have been through a lot... I can't just let anything happen again... I just can't... Back then, I have nothing to save myself... But you were with me and saved me... You were the only one who made me get back to myself... But now... It will be me who will help you get back to yourself... He is the only one who has turned our lives a living hell...But, I promise... I will make him suffer a lot... He has made us go through a lot... But it's histime... To suffer!" Samantha said making Alexi frown.
"It's his time... It's time... He will suffer... He will suffer..." Samantha was blabbering making Alexi frown at the phone with the blank expressions as she is not sure what Samantha is talking about!
"Sam... Sam..." Alexi called grabbing Samantha's attention.
"Leo is dead... Long back ago!" Alexi said Making Samantha's eyes wide.
