After 3 months of relationship, I didn't know  Sam was just using me to get to my father. He wanted my father to get on a business deal with him and knowing my father he don't like involving in any shady business deals. Sam begged me to convince my dad that his business was sincere.
    "You trust me right Bea?
Of course I did trust Sam and his business not knowing he was going to scam my dad of everything.
Later on I convinced my dad and he decided to invest in Sam's invisible business and I was so happy. I told Sam about it and he gave me some documents for my dad to sign them, I gave it to my dad that evening and he said he'll look into it tomorrow but I persuaded my dad to just sign it. I was so stupid and immature, everything that happened was all my fault I fell in love and blindly trusted the wrong man and now my life was torn apart.
My dad signed it and the next day I gave it to Sam, Sam promised that just in two months my family will get twice they invested and I was over the moon.

After two months, Sam told me the business failed It was like the earth should swallow me, I grabbed Sam by the collar as tears rolled down my cheeks.
"Tell me it's not true Sam please this must be a joke right?"
Sam pat my hair with concern and sadness visible in his eyes "I wish it was a joke Mace but I just don't know what happened" my eyes grew wide glaring at Sam I didn't know what happened but I stepped away from Sam and gave him a slap.
Sam was horrified "What the heck was that  Mace?" He yelled at me "I told you I don't know what happened to all the money and then you hit me".
I stared at with teary eyes "Sam my dad is in the hospital and we don't have any money for his heart surgery, and the bakery is not doing well right now. Sam my family was depending on that money right now and you're telling me all the fucking money is gone" I yelled at him at the top of my voice.
Sam just stood there speechless, "Sam please I need money for my dad's surgery please his been in the hospital for weeks and the dead line is next week please".
I was shocked to hear Sam's suggestion,
"You want me to sell the bakery?" I said staring at him in disbelief my heart ached, my parents and I built that bakery since I was ten we struggled to get to the level we are now and Sam wants me to sell it.
"I hate you Sam, I hate you" I said and ran away, I was running then I came to a halt I stare at the sky with tears welling up in my eyes. I didn't want my father to die so I decided to sell the bakery, when my parents asks me about Sam and the money I just make lame excuses.
That day I decided to go take the cheque from the lawyer I saw Sam and his parents with the lawyer at the café, i couldn't believe Sam and his parents bought our bakery behind my back. The parents then told me that my father have been in debt to them for years now and hasn't paid the money, "so you sent Sam to take it by scamming my dad, so the relationship was fake Sam" I stared at him with tears in my eyes I couldn't believe this I was tricked and played with my feelings. I held back my tears I won't cry in front of these demon's, I took the cheque and as I was walking out I heard Sam calling out to me but I refuse to turn back.
After arriving at the hospital I paid for my father's surgery and my mom and I waited patiently awaiting for what fate awaits, then the door opened and the doctor came out my mom and I stood up immediately and asked about my dad. The doctor face was pale and he shook his head and said
"Am sorry we lost him, it was too late" my mom and I teared up immediately, I couldn't believe it my dad was gone all because of me.
Before my dad's funeral I found out I was pregnant for Sam, I wanted to abort it but my mom refused telling me it was a part to a new life. I kept the pregnancy and gave birth to a baby girl and I named her melody, she was my all, my everything and my world I loved her with all my heart though she's suffering from asthma and am willing to do anything to keep her alive.
___Back To present___
Thinking about my past tears flowed down my cheeks, I wiped it away immediately my past made me strong made me who I am now, I won't let anyone like Sam and his parents use me again and that's why I'll stay away from Sam and keep my daughter a secret.
