A Tired Soul

DOOL fanfiction 2006

Chapter

Dear Austin, Carrie, and the loves of my life Lucas and Will:

By the time you get this letter, I probably left Salem already. So, when you get some time and tell your mother that she won. It is official I don't have the will or the strength to fight with Kate anymore. My fighting spirit has taken defeat. I also have been scheming and lying to be happy, but that it made me realize more that I will never be happy with myself and that I need to come out with the truth. I was blackmailing Lexie to keep Austin and Carrie apart, but when I realized that Austin would never love they way that he loves Carrie and that Lucas was the only one who could love me the way I wanted to be loved.

Honestly, I thought that I can be happy with Austin but I couldn't stand there and watch Lucas go down the aisle and watch Kate gloat on that the fact that finally got one of her wish. She would probably scheme to get away from Austin. Carrie, you take care of the baby and my son. I know he at the stage of being a teenager, but give time to adjust to his new family. I wish you and Lucas the best of luck and Lucas; don't let your mother break you and Carrie because she wants Austin to be with her. If you love her as much as I know you do, you better fight with everything that you got.

Austin, I know that you are angry with me for I what I did and I don't expect you to forgive either. All I ask you to do is protect my son and keep telling him that I love him very much. I believe that Will is better off without me. Kate is right; Salem is better off without me.

Will, be good for your father and your stepmother. Don't be a rebel like I was as a teenager. Listen to Carrie and Lucas because they are only doing what is right for you. SO DON'T BE A PAIN IN THE ASS. Take care of the baby. I love you so much and I'm telling this because I need to be one with myself and I cannot do that there. Be good to your grandmother Kate and I want you to respect her because you are her family and she your family as well. Be good.

I love you all differently and the same. Please don't try to find me I don't want to be found. Take care of each other and be happy with each other. Lucas and Austin are a family not enemies. I wish I learned that sooner.

Sincerely,

Samantha Gene Brady.

Samantha put the two-page letter in the envelope and sat it on the table. She gave the room a glance over before she picked up her luggage and went out the door. She knew that she was doing the right thing and that was all that matter. She walked down the hallway and went into the elevator. As the elevator closed, Austin walked down the hallway to the apartment. In that instant he knew something was missing as he opened the apartment door.
