My tears don't make me weak they just show how strong am I to let my emotions our and display it to the world.

RAIN POV

It's been two weeks since Karl broke up from me. I will be truthful about it and still hurts. I thought he was stronger then that. It has also been two weeks since I last saw the face of Damien Black. He is gone for some business work. For now life is peaceful.

Amber is also recovering rapidly and she had shown great signs of improvement. Everything is getting on track and I just hope that Damien would leave us.

Buy I some how know he won't.

I sighed as I ran my hand through my hair. Men can be so difficult at times.

I felt someone tapping my hand and it was then I lifted my glaze to see Amber pouting and wanting her momma's attention. How cute!

"Do you want to say something my baby? ", I asked her softly as she shook her head.

She made a rectangle on her palm and patted her stomach. I looked at her in adoration.

"So my baby wants a chocolate. ", I cooed to which she nodded her head. She put her palm forward expecting me to put a chocolate in her palm. But neither I had a chocolate nor she was allowed to eat one.

"I will give you a chocolate once we reach home.", I told her as her face fell. Oh my poor baby.

"Doll.....", I heard a voice from the back and without looking back I already knew it was Sam. Only he calls me doll.

The door closed silently as he dragged a chair next to me.

"High five cupcake.", he exclaimed as both Amber and Sam did a high five. Next he held my hand and made me turn in his direction.

I didn't look in his eyes. Sam told me what Damien did to him and I felt ashamed. It was all my fault.

"Look in my eyes Rain.", Sam whispered softly. I lifted my head to meet his blue orbs. They held a intensity that knocked the air out of my lungs. I have never seen such intensity in his eyes.

"Stop fighting.", he whispered softly.

That is the reason why I love him. Without me saying it out loud he knows what is going in my head. I know he could feel my inner battle. He knows I was drowning in my own chaos.

"He is dangerous, Sam.", I whispered. My control was slipping. I couldn't keep it inside of me for long. I looked straight in front of me without meeting his glaze. I feel tears threatening to spill from my eyes. You are stronger then much more stronger. I whispered it in my mind.

I was brought out of my babble with a tap on my shoulder. I looked towards the bed to see Amber looking at me with confusion. She must be thinking why her momma was crying. Only if I could tell her.

She tried moving in my direction but I got up from the chair and stopped her from doing so.

"Momma is fine baby.", I whispered to her as she looked at me questionably. She was too smart for her age.

"Will you listen to a lullaby? ", I asked her to which she eagerly nodded her head. I started singing a lullaby while wiping the tears streaming down from my eyes. I could see Amber's eyelids dropping and soon Amber was deep in slumber.

I felt Sam getting up from his chair as he hugged me from the side. I was first stiff in his arm but I relaxed soon.

"You are very strong doll.", Sam stated.
