Legacies - Lizzie Saltzman

Part 36 - Apologies I

Next day

At the Salvatore Boarding School

Alaric and Caroline were fighting in the assembly hall in front of the students as he found out about Caroline being together with Klaus.

He didn't care where they were, he started having a go at Caroline.

But this didn't go well with me and Josie and surprisingly Hope as our bio dad was belittling her dad.

I say don't talk to mom in this manner ever again.

Josie says we know about mom and Hope's dad are together.

Bio dad says what? You didn't bother to tell it to me?

I say it wasn't your business. You are just our bio dad nothing else. Mom told us and we assured her that our problem with Hope wouldn't hinder her relationship with Hope's dad.

Josie says we are with mom. She deserves to be happy.

Bio dad says fine Caroline can ruin her life with running off to a high school crush but you two won't go with her. You two are my daughters. I will decide for you both. And you both won't be going anywhere near this horrid man.

We say we are not your daughters bio dad. We are our mom's daughters. If she feels safe with Hope's dad then so do we. You lost the right to make decisions for us when you treated us like we were nothing and treated Hope as princess. We are Caroline Forbes Salvatore's daughters. And we are proud of it. We stand by her and won't listen to your bullshit about mom and Klaus.

I say by the thanks for belittling Klaus and showing your true colours. I guess now it's clear to Hope that you never saw her as a part of Klaus just as Hayley's daughter. If Hope loves her father a little bit then she would distance herself from you seeing how low you think of her father.

Hope says Lizzie is correct, right Dr. Saltzman? You never saw me as Klaus Mikaelson's daughter. You just happened to compare me with him when I would do something wrong. I was too blind to see the truth. I was blinded by your attention, love, affection, care for me to notice and see how you were treating your own daughters and others. But no more, I would stand by you Dr. Saltzman. I know about Caroline and my dad too. And I have no problem with it. About me and Caroline's daughters then I have to make amends. I have to apologize to them for ruining their lives, for taking away their father from them.

Hope continues I am sorry Lizzie and Josie for making you feel like you were nothing. My dad made me realise that you both weren't wrong. Had the situations been reversed I would have felt what you both felt. I would have even tried to ruin that girl's life. But you both didn't do that to me.

I say because we were brought up my mom who has taught us never to do bad with anyone.

Hope Lizzie I understand why you hated me because you thought it was me who started the rumour. I may not have started the rumour but I called you crazy at every chance I got knowing how it affects you. My dad made me realise how wrong I was. He told me about aunt Finn who suffered from mental illness and that it's not a joke.

We say apology accepted

I say but that doesn't mean we are friends or sisters. It would take time to get to that level.

Hope says I would wait and try to be more than acquaintances. Jace, Alec and Emery you three are my siblings. I never tried to get to know you because you got close with Lizzie and Josie. I felt that they took my only chance of having siblings but that wasn't the case. Your mother's were friends and loyal to each other which made you 5 loyal to each other. You guys became friends and later a family. I wish that we can be a family too. I hope you can give me a chance.

Jace says all three of us are stubborn like mom. Your father and his family hurt them. But you are innocent in this. We didn't like you because we were loyal to the twins. But now that's settled. We don't know each other. To become a family, that would be a long road. Maybe one day, we would be a family but right now we just be acquaintances.

Hope says I accept it. I would try that we could be more and our families get reunited.

All the triplets nod their head and say sure.
