Fight To Live

Light in Darkness

Sierra POV

"You are not a monster", Sam and Ken said together but I don't believe it.

"You are not a monster instead I see a fighter in you I see a girl who is seeking justice for her mother, I see a girl who even though is suffering for years but still hasnt give up you are fighting to live you are not a monster because not once I thought that you are getting revenge instead I can see that you are seeking justice for your mother and not revenge for yourself they had ruined your child hood and even teenage to an extent but not once you said you want revenge for what they did to you", Sam said as he stared directly in my eyes I smiled at him because I cant cry I have to stay strong for my mother I cant break down and break my promise I made to mom.

I looked toward Ken wanting for him to explain why he said I am not a monster.

"You are no monster do you want to know what I see in you instead of a monster?", he questioned me while I shook my head.

"I see light in you you are not the light in my life only but you are light in many other thousand people light in their darkness you know after what happened I wanted to give up because it was too frightening those nightmares kept coming every night it was really hard and whenever I would wake up because of my nightmares you had always been there comforting me soothing me and kept on telling me that everything is going to be okay", Ken said as I saw tears have started flowing through his eyes.

"When I wanted to give up on myself you were there and you didn't give up on me and then I thought that even when we don't have any blood relationship you still hadn't give up on me so how could I give up on you and I fought to be there for you and live for you", Ken said as he keeps on looking in my eyes.

"You are not at all a monster because you were that ray of light in my darkness that gave me hope you are light in every other persons life who has been saved by you or supported by you you are our ray of light in all of our dark filled lives", said Ken and suddenly there was this pin drop silence which was strange.

"I think that now when some confessions are already made I think everyone should retire to their rooms and Sierra especially you I think you should rest the most because after this weekend you should go back to school as you have already not been to school too many days now", Dani said as he stood up and left and after him everyone left slowly and when Sam was going out he stopped in his tracks and returned he looked like he forgot something really important.

Sam came towards me and kissed my forehead and left this made heat rise to my cheeks when I looked around to see if anyone saw this and more to my embarrassment dad saw this he was looking at us with his mouth hung open this made me suddenly remember the club night when I kissed him I don't know what got into me that night that I kissed him but the feeling I felt was great.

When everyone left the living room it made a realization dawn on me that I am alone with dad here what am I going to say to him I don't have the Strength to look in his eyes and see that he feels betrayed.

"I am sorry dad", I said as I stared the ground because suddenly it interested me more my thoughts were broken when I felt him pull me towards him and hugged me tight while I laid my head on his chest.

"Are you okay?", he asked me as he patted my back.

"I am fine but aren't you angry at me?", I asked him while slightly raising my head from his chest.

"No why would I be angry at my daughter?", he asked me.

"Maybe because I didn't tell you about my family and past or because I killed some people behind your back or because I didn't tell you about the company or because I did many things behind your back or". I was going to continue but he cut me off.

"No instead I am very proud of you I am proud that you fought instead of giving up, I am proud because you faced everything head on, I am proud because you my daughter are the worlds strongest women I have ever seen, I am proud because you were helping others when were fighting and I am most proud because you my child are soon going to finish what those monsters started you are going to get complete justice for your mother and you did this all alone and I am sure you are going to finish it soon and will live a beautiful life", dad said while he kept on patting my head I don't know when sleep consumed me,
