A smile spreads on Peter''s face as Lucy said what did he just say to Lucy.


    Peter calling Lucy Mom is a surprising thing for everyone while he used to call Lucy, Damon Mr., And Mrs. Carson.


    "Mom." Peter said with a smile and Lucy smiled brightly again.


    "Thank you so much." Lucy replied with a smile while Damon smiled brightly.


    "No... I should thank you, guys." Peter said as he cupped Lucy''s face in his hands.


    "Thank you so much for adopting me with so much love even after knowing me and my family." Peter said with a small smile and Lucy shook her head in No.


    "No, Peter. It''s not yours or Annie''s fault for what your brother did to Samantha... You don''t have to feel sad about this." Lucy replied.


    "Yes, Leo... You are innocent in all these... You didn''t do anything. You don''t have to feel bad. Aunt lucy and Uncle Damon will look after you as your own son." Samantha said with a small smile and Peter turned to Samantha.


    "Then why do you feel guilty and sad, Sam?" Peter asked Samantha making her eyes wide.


    "I heard you talking to Aunt Cassandra downstairs after we returned back from the funeral." Peter said making Samantha shock.


    "You heard everything?" Cassandra asked making everyone frown.


    Johnson looked at Samantha and see her years rolled in her eyes.


    "Yes." Peter answered.


    "What are you talking about?" Damon asked with a frown.


    "You will know in a few minutes, Dad." Peter answered with a smile looking into Damon''s eyes making him, Lucy, and others smile brightly.


    "Dad?" Damon asked with a smile.


    "Yes, Dad." Peter answered as he walked towards Damon.


    "Thank you... Thank you so much for adopting me to give me love even knowing who am I actually is... And thank you so much for being a huge support to Sam when she needs you, Dad." Peter said and Damon hugged him tightly.


    "No, Son... You don''t have to thank me for anything... Sam is like my daughter too and I feel proud of her today for what she achieved and as everyone said, you are at no fault... Whatever happened is because of your brother and you are so innocent in all these." Damon said as he hugged him tightly.


    "But, Dad... Why Sam is feeling guilty and sad making me feel guilty and sad?" Peter asked and everyone''s attention went to Samantha.


    "Sam?" Lucy asked.


    "Yes, Mom... She is feeling guilty that she didn''t tell anyone about Leo before because of Alexi''s career which cost her My mom''s life and mine. She feeling sad on me." Peter answered making everyone frown.


    "Peter..." Peter cut off Samantha in mid-sentence.


    "No, Sam... Let me talk today." Peter said as he walked towards Samantha.


    "Sam... You were with me when I need you the most and you are still with me... And I am sure, you will be with me in the future too. I know... You will be my shadow wherever I go and whatever I do... Because you care for me and I know...


    You will not ever think to leave me alone." Peter said as a tear falls down from his eye.


    "That''s why I didn''t go far away from you. Because I know... Wherever I go... You will follow me somewhere... Somehow. You were the best thing that happened in my life as my sister.


    You look after me as a mom and gave me all the love when my brother passed away... Silly me, I didn''t even know at that time what my brother did and how he died." Peter said with a chuckle making a tear fall down from Samantha''s eyes.


    "I was just 11 years old when all these things happened around me... I didn''t even have a glimpse of what''s going on around me... The girl, who got hurt with my brother was looking after me... She gave me everything that I need and cared for me... She even asked me toe to her home with her. So, she can look after me and keep track of me even better.


    The girl didn''t hate me even a little for what my brother did to her. Even though he behaved like a monster with her..." Peter said as tears fall down from her eyes making tears fall down from Samantha''s eyes.


    "She still kept all in her heart looking at my face... I always think, why she didn''t ever felt angry about me looking at my face remembering my brother''s cruel things which he did to her?" Peter asked as he shrugged.


    "But... I don''t have an answer to that and I guess, I will never get that answer, or maybe I will find that answer... Because she is not pitying me but loving me with her whole kind heart knowing very well that I am at no fault and innocent." Peter said making tears fall down from Samantha''s eyes.


    "Peter..." Samantha said but Peter shook his head.


    "No, Sam... You should have hated me... Instead of caring about me. You should have taught me what and how this cruel world is but you didn''t and taught me... The world outside is so beautiful and you should see it one day. Yes, it''s beautiful.


    That''s why I have got these two beautiful souls as my parents today..." Peter said as he turned around to Damon and Lucy.


    "But... " Peter said as he again turned again towards Samantha.


    "You forget to teach me, how cruel can this world be and how this world goes with cruelty... " Peter said looking at Samantha.


    "I guess, you wanted me to don''t think about the cruel world as you have already seen how cruel one can be in this world to make their no matter what!" Peter said as tears fall down from his eyes.


    "Well... I guess... You all think it''s doesn''t matter all these now as it''s past and past should be forgotten...


    Yes, it''s true that the past doesn''t matter anymore and should be forgotten when you have got an awesome guy in your life who cares for her and loves her beautiful soul genuinely more than anything even though she has scars." Peter said with a smile looking at Johnson and he returned back a small smile towards him.
