Legacies - Lizzie Saltzman

Part 33 - Lizzie forgives Josie

Bio dad tells how we talked about his precious Hope.

Mom says did you tell Hope to apologize for her behaviour towards them especially Lizzie?

Bio dad says Hope has never been on bad behaviour? Lizzie and Josie always started it.

I say what about the times she would act as if we are beneath her and when  she would drop the crazy word for me knowing that how it affects me?

Mom says now what would you say?

Hope says it's not my fault that I am the tribrid, the superior creature and everyone says that she is crazy Caroline. And this is the truth.

Mom says being too proud of which species you are isn't good. And Lizzie has mental illness. She isn't crazy. Do you have any idea how difficult it is to cope with it and you dropping words like that doesn't help. If Lizzie crazy then would you call me crazy too?

Hope says why Caroline? You are absolutely fine. You are perfect.

I say mom also suffers from mental illness and she stopped the rumour by telling about her own struggles. Perhaps you were too busy to notice that. And once mom started to go on missions, students started to bully me for my mental illness. And your Dr Saltzman did nothing because he was too busy to nurture you.

Josie says and he blames Lizzie for not being normal. He never understand why she is having episodes.

Bio dad says that's not true Josie.

Mom says what did you do when students were bullying Lizzie? You did nothing. You were her father but instead of standing up for our daughter you stood by while she was getting assaulted and bullied by other students including your favourite Hope.

I say mom you can scream at him till you turn blue but he won't get it.

Josie says Lizzie is right mom. Let's leave him with his favourite Hope.

We leave from there.

I say thank you for defending me out there Josie.

Josie says not a problem. I want to ask forgiveness from you because of me your life got ruined. I had no idea that Penelope would do this. I was just telling my frustrations and insecurities to her and she made you out the bad person. Actually you were the victim. It wasn't your fault that you had mental illness. I get it now and because of me how difficult your life turned out to be. Your life was going to be already difficult with mental illness but I added cherry on the top. Please forgive me.

I say I felt betrayed when I came to know that it was you who started it with Penelope. Mom made me understand that above all we are family. She asked me to remember that while making the decision. And they way you defended me against our bio dad and Hope made me forgive you for what you did when we were 11.

Josie has tears in her eyes and hugs me.

Mom says awww that's so sweet.

We add mom into the hug too.

Mom says she has to tell us something important.

We say what mommy?

Mom says I know you both have bad relations with Hope but Hope's father Klaus and I are in a relationship.

We are in shock. I compose myself and say mom we are with you right Josie?

Josie says yes mom, Lizzie is right.

I say mom we would never stand in the way of your happiness. You have always put us first and we would do the same for you. Yes we have bad relations with Hope but that's secondary to your happiness. You deserve to be happy and if it's Klaus then so be it.

Josie says I am so happy for you mom.

Mom hugs us both and says my beautiful angels.

At the Mikaelson mansion

Mikaelson siblings are having lunch so that they can reconcile with Kol and Finn. Finn's children and Davina are also present.

Klaus says we want to reconcile with you both and start together as a family again.

Finn says we were a family but you ruined it by sticking a dagger in my heart in 1114. After that there have been just betrayals from your side.

Kol says Finn's right.

Gabriel says we want to make amends and be a better family.

Elijah says where we went wrong that you both were willing to put us on death bed?

Kol says that's a long story.

Elijah says we are all yours.

Hope says but first I am quite jealous that you all had 1,000 years to yourself. Can you please tell some of the stories what you did for 1,000 years? We will start with you aunt Finn.

Everyone started looking at Finn for her story
