AUTHOR'S NOTE: I'm so sorry it took me so long to update; It was just I couldn't believe that I was done writing this story. It is my favorite story I have written and it made me sad that it was over. Well I realized it was time for you guys to know what happened.
Chapter 38: …. He loves me not??
"I don't know." She said, "But evidently all the stuff you said about fighting for our marriage… I guess it didn't mean anything to you... Did it?"
"I just wanted you to be happy Samantha. I was thinking about you." Martin debated.
"I was sad that you hurt me; on a subconscious level, I guess I wanted to hurt you as much as you hurt me… but that doesn't mean I don't love you. I never stopped loving you." She elaborated.
"Sam, I never meant to hurt you."
"Just please tell me why cheated on me… I won't be mad, Martin… Please I just need to know why."
"I don't know." Martin mumbled.
"That's not an answer. You've been telling me you don't know, but I think you really know."
"Because Sam!" He voice crescendo to more serious volume, "I guess that it took us such a long time to get married, that I felt that deep down, you hated our marriage. I guess that somehow I felt you were going to realize that I wasn't the right person for you and eventually you would leave me…"
Sam tried to rationalize his outburst, "So you cheated on me because…"
He interrupted her with a calmer voice, "I guess I cheated on you because I didn't want to be the one to get hurt."
"But that's not true. Martin?"
"What do you mean?"
"You did get hurt, didn't you?"
"Yes." He whispered.
Sam looked deep into Martin's eyes, and she asked him, "Do you want to stay married?"
However, before he could answer, the doctor rushed in and said, "Let's check to see how things are going?" The doctor walked up to Samantha.
"Sam…" Martin whispered.
"Yes, Martin?"
"…I don't think we should be talking about this right now." He said regretfully.
"Okay." The doctor said.
Samantha, who took a pause from their conversation, said to the doctor, "Is everything okay?"
"How much longer do we have?" Martin asked.
"Actually, you're ten centimeters dilated… You're ready to go into the delivery room." The doctor announced.
Samantha, completely shocked, said, "Now?"
"Yeah, you two are going to be parents soon." The doctor stated.
Martin and Samantha knew that they were having a baby, but because of all their fighting, they accidently put it in their back of their mind. Like it or not, their baby was coming on its own schedule.
