"With me too'.....but why your granddaughter and I have no connection with them," Rosa said to Alex.
She frowned, "But your my mother and I want you to know them too. And they seemed to want to know about the woman who raised me"
"Ohh but honey this is your moment to know them more not me. I will go when it's time but not right now" she said.
Alex turned to Nathan who was sitting beside his father, "Did you two tell her something to stop her from going?".
Both shock their heads 'No we didn't not "
"Really? "she frowned.
"Maybe a few words of you not first discussing this with us before making a decision, "said Nathan.
"Oh, we are still on that I thought we had agreed "
"I never did, you just decided on your own and then told me ".
"Nathan they are my real family and yes I appreciate the effort you put in me finally meeting them but think about them too. They haven't seen me for years and now finally get to know am alive and want to know me and spend time with me and you want me to deny them that " she yelled.
Her mother held her down as Nathan got up and left.
His father sighed," It's okay honey you can go ahead with your decision don't mind him "
She breathed looking away, her mother held her," Mom I just want you there with me "
Her mother smiled," And I will sweetie if that's what you want "
She hugged her mother," Thanks for understanding".
....
"Have you seen him yet since the argument?" Cynthia asked Alex.
"No, I went home to pack my things and he wasn't there "she sighed.
She had finally agreed to meet with her sister again and told her about meeting with her family and Nathan getting angry at her for her decision.
"So what are you going to do now? "she asked.
"Nothing ".
"Really? But you both love each other so much especially him. Won't this affect your relationship "
Alex took a sip of her coffee," I just can't explain it to him now when he's still in that mood. He forgot I had one goal in life, giving Mother a better life... and now that I have that chance I can't hesitate to take it " she said.
"I know Alex but you don't know them that well so how sure are you that this thing will work out? And remember they are the most dangerous mafia family in the country "she whispered.
Alex chuckled," I know but no matter what they are my family. And the truth is am tired. I have been trying my best all my life to get the life I wanted for my mother and me and kept failing and hurting all the way. So now that I finally have a chance of being loved, cared for and protected am gripping on it and not letting it go. Now Mother will live happily "
"But will they accept her? "Cynthia asked.
"Mmm, they already did. She was the woman who raised me, loved me unconditionally. So if they loved me then it will be easy to accept mother fully too " she said.
"Okay if you say so, now about the company and other property in your names still with us the Whites. What are we going do about that? ".
"Nothing, yes they might belong to me but Dad worked hard to multiply it to where it is now. So I have no right to it now. Just go ahead as the legal owner and do your best not to fail Dad ". She answered.
Cynthia gazed at her sister," Sometimes you amaze me and other times make me cry "
Alex smiled," I love you too ".
Cynthia giggled," I didn't say that ".
"Yes, you did, you. Just don't want to accept it " she said.
"Am going to miss you? "she said squeezing her hand.
"You can come and visit, they need to see you too after all your my little sister," said Alex.
Cynthia sniffed," I will come them, your going to make me cry now "
Alex laughed gesturing her to come close, Cynthia did and they hugged.
