making a deal

Dustin was completely surprised by this, Jasper own daughter overheard and all of a suddenly was willing to do something like this?

Dustin knew she was only 16 and had a hole in her life I had to learn compared to his son who is about to be 30 years old but right now 29.

She was only 14 years younger and he doubt John Cena or Jasper would agree to such a thing but maybe a deal can be made with this first.

"Are you actually serious? I need to know if you really are telling the truth," Dustin ask as he wanted to see if she was determined to sacrifice her own life for John Cena.

Steering directly at Dustin, "yes I mean it, I'll do it."

"Tell me why are you willing to do this?" Dustin asked as he was curious to know, she would be ultimately making a sacrifice to save her son but giving up her own life to do so.

"Of course I am, I know how much John Cena means so much to my father because those two have been long time friends since they were kids, it will only break his heart and put him through more grief," she said as Dustin was surprised by this.

Dustin was truly surprised because even though the two were long-time friends she was still Jasper's daughter, he was sure Jasper would pick her instead of John Cena.

"There's no way your father would agree to this, you're too young for this," Dustin said as he wasn't willing to sacrifice someone who was very young or at the very least anyone who's under 18 at least.

"To be honest that is where you're wrong, I have been the one who's been making the big decisions and taking care of my father a lot, you see ever since my mom died I've been taking care of him a lot, I can't imagine the type of pain he would go through losing his best friend," she told Dustin.

Dustin wondered though, "I can't just let you do this for free, what I mean is I can't without a type of deal that I can give you in return, hmm? Maybe... Why not I offer your family money, over 10 million."

She was completely by surprise, "in exchange for My sacrifice to save your son you would give my father that much money?"

Dustin nodded has despite what he had to just said, if she was willing to do this and there was no one that could have a say in it, then she could be a perfect vessel but would ultimately cause her own life.

"I do, in exchange for what you do I will make your father rich and even take care of him," Dustin explained.

"All right then it's a deal but you should know this will still cost your father to grief over you," Dustin said as he was willing to give her a chance to back away but by the look in her eyes she wasn't.

"I know but... I can finally make his life better that I always wanted," she said.

Little did neither of them known both John Cena and Jasper were overhearing the whole entire thing.

It wasn't a surprise that the two of them were both in shock of what they were overhearing about.

Jasper though wasn't completely surprised by this as because of his grief for his late wife, his daughter had actually been taken care of him since he was little and always been trying to do a lot for him.

She does a lot of cooking, cleaning and trying to get into a good college so she can make good money for him, Jasper though never realized that she would be willing to do something like this for him though.

This was truly a surprise to him and something that he really didn't want to happen.

Jasper and decided to go into the kitchen and talk to his daughter Emily.

Jasper sat down with a heavy heart, his eyes filled with remorse as he looked at his daughter, Emily. He took a deep breath, gathering the strength to express his feelings.

Jasper: Emily, my dear... I want to apologize for everything, for not being the father you needed me to be. I was lost in my grief, and I let it consume me. I should have been there for you, supported you, and shown you the love you deserved. I'm so sorry.

Emily looked at her father, her eyes filled with a mixture of sadness and understanding. She reached out to hold his hand.

Emily: Dad, I forgive you. I understand that you were hurting, and it wasn't easy for you either. We all make mistakes, but we also have the ability to learn from them. I don't want you to carry the weight of guilt or grief any longer.

Jasper nodded, tears welling up in his eyes.

Jasper: Thank you, Emily. Your forgiveness means the world to me. But there's something else I need to tell you. I promise to take care of Lily and be the father I couldn't be for you. I'll provide her with the love and support she deserves, and I'll cherish every moment with her.

Emily smiled weakly, touched by her father's words, but she gently interrupted him.

Emily: Dad, there's one more thing I want to ask of you. As much as I love you and want you to be there for Lily, I need you to forget me. Not in a way that erases my memory, but in a way that allows you to move forward without constant grief. Focus on the daughter who will be alive, who needs your love and support. Please, promise me that you won't let my absence consume you.

Jasper's heart ached at Emily's request, but he understood the reasoning behind it. He nodded, tears streaming down his face as he held his daughter tightly in his arms.

Jasper: I promise, Emily. I will honor your wish. I'll never forget you, but I'll focus on being the father Lily needs, just as you asked. Your sacrifice will not be in vain, and I'll make sure your memory lives on in our hearts.

Emily smiled through her tears, finding solace in her father's promise. They held each other, their embrace a mixture of love, forgiveness, and the bittersweet realization of the path they were about to tread.

Dustin soon came in with a duffle bag and it had some of Emily's stuff, "come on, we have to get going prepare for this."

Emily went and John Cena was wondering, 'wait a second are we actually going to do this?!
