2020-10-10 23:06:52Staring at the cream and gold wallpaper in the kitchen as the kettle was being filled with tap water, Robyn wondered why she had chosen these colors in the first place. She had made a good choice because it all looked really good in the kitchen.
Her tummy had started hurting again and she thought if she drank warm milk it would be better. She did not particularly like powdered milk, but that was all they had left since Ella had forgotten to buy fresh milk again.She switched it on and waited. She could not help think back to Beau. He seemed a little troubled with the breakup from Liz the girlfriend. Is that what loving someone meant? Being sad when it goes wrong? She thought he should be relieved since there was no one holding him back.
She had experienced that before, a long time back before she almost lost her own life. Before she believed that certain people were meant to be together. Before she grew and woke up. Maybe she was a

The man sitting across from her oozed confidence and a high temperature of arrogance that she had only seen in her father. She wanted to rip that balloon of ego into tiny pieces and let them fly into the wind to be whisked away. Never to be found."Please don't do that Robyn.""Do what?""Look at me like that.""Sure. Tell me why you wanted to have this time with me.""You don't like me at all do you?""I don't dislike you. I just wish you and your father would stop messing with Beau.""I don't mess with my little brother.""Yeah right." Robyn scoffed.Colin clenched his jaw a different emotion clouding his eyes. "I will only tell you this once, I'm not my father.""If you say so.""If anything I envy Beau, even when we were little. You always had his back. You always worried about him. Never me. I was always the bad guy. He always had you."

As they drove up the concrete road, Robyn stared out at the trees, still very green mighty and tall. This used to be a gravel road only they must have added the concrete recently. She saw the swing tree house she and August had played in with Drew and other friends.She became a little more nervous with every moment they got close to the house. She started shaking more as they got closer. Drew held her closer and rubbed her back slowly. Peter and Vivian turned around to look at her, worry evident on their faces. She smiled reassuringly at them."We can turn around if you're not up for this my angel. Right Pete?" Her aunt said."In a heartbeat love.""No. It's okay. We're already here.""We're so proud of you Robyn."As they approached the house, she saw her parents outside holding hands while her mother seemed to shift nervously. August had a smile etched on his face.

Robyn pressed her hands together to keep from fidgetting. This had to be some sick joke or maybe they heard it wrong. She looked at Colin who had an amused expression on his face."Why do you seem to find this amusing?""Because arranged marriages are so long ago.""Exactly! You should be with the woman you're in love with. I don't really believe in a one true love but this is extreme.""Tell me something Robyn, I'm I that bad of a person that you'd be so upset about marrying me?""No. It's not that. I just don't think it's a good idea.""Then would it not benefit us both to be with someone we know well and are honest to than be with strangers?""Oh my goodness you're right. It's not like I have someone to hold on to." She said looking away. The realisation hit her hard.They sat there thinking about how being married to each other would be benefici

The cool breeze blowing over her body only made her relax more into the bed. She heard some shuffling around beside her and opened her eyes. She was unaware of where she was at first. The light coming from the curtains caught her eye and she recognised where she was. Robin sat up as Drew got up to leave her room. He was trying to tiptoe out and not wake her up. She chuckled at this and he turned quickly."Sorry angel, I didn't mean to wake you.""It's okay. I'm awake.""Alright. How did you sleep?""Really good. You?""Really good. Come on let's get breakfast.""What time is it?""Maybe after nine,considering mom has been up here twice waking us.""Alright. I will take a bath first. Get out of my room.""I need to freshen up too. See you downstairs."Robyn's mind drifted to what had happened the previous day and she sighed letting the warm water wash away the stress. She remembered she had planned to have lunch with Colin. She quickly got dressed glad that her Aunt took pleasure in

The early afternoon sunlight hit her face perfectly as she looked up with eyes closed. It reminded her why she had loved this place in the first place. It calmed her, be it day or night. She was glad it had not changed ownership at all.She breathed in so hard as the smell of earth, grass and just nature in general wafted to her nose and she smiled. Colin had brought them for an amazing picnic"Okay, tell me the story.""What story?""About you and Beau. You used to be close till sometime when I was ten or so..." Robyn said glancing at him."If I tell you that, will you tell me why you seem to always run away from him?""I don't run. I just avoid him.""Uhuh. Especially when he is with someone else....""Fine, I will tell you."Colin grinned at her. "Fair enough. So it started one night when our mum was arguing with Beau's dad. By then he was dad to both of us. It escalated and mum let slip that I was not his son. We were both shocked so we run upstairs to Beau's room and he was crying

Robyn did not know whether she was more surprised or angry. She thought of all the reasons she should be mad at the moment.She thought about how Drew would have felt if he was there, how seeing her in their home would make him more sad in that moment. With that thought she decided she was more angry."Robbie please, we have to talk." Ella said approaching her slowly."Alright. But let me ask you something, are you here to apologise?""Yes. I'm sorry Robyn.""Why are you apologizing to me? I don't care what you do anymore.""Robyn.....""One more thing," She said looking directly at her, "Did you break up with Blurr-face?"Ella sighed, "Robbie, he loves me.""And I love you too, but do you see me hurting you or manipulating you?""He does not manipulate me. And it's not the same.""Do you hav

The first thing that she became aware of was the smell of chemicals torturing her nostrils. She felt like something was stuck in her throat that smelt like wood mixed with more chemicals. She could not lift her hand to scratch away the annoying smell,something was pressing her body had onto whatever she was lying on. She was no longer floating on the clouds.Robyn willed her body to move but it was being very stubborn. Was she dead? That could not be, she would not smell things if she was. Then again what did she know about being dead, maybe this was what the after life was like. Someone opened one of her eyes and flashed a very bright light. She screamed in her for the person to stop but her mouth did not move. What the hell was wrong with her?All of a sudden she felt light weighted and began floating again. She welcomed the sleep that was strongly embracing her, gladly falling into its pit. There was peace at last.

Beau rubbed his face to hide his anger and sadness when he walked into Robyn's hospital room. He saw his brother sitting right beside her on the chair, holding her hand seemingly caressing it.He could not believe Drew let Colin in first before him. Why would he do that? Then again, Drew and Robyn were more than close. They were brother and sister who were best friends. Robyn was closer to Drew than to August in his opinion. Maybe she had told him about their little confrontation at her birthday dinner.Her words rang out repeatedly in his mind yet he still had no idea what she meant. Did Robyn feel like he was sidelining her? Maybe he should hang out with her more.He swallowed his emotions and approached the bed slowly. The last thing he wanted was to upset Robyn again."Hey...... You look terrible." He said with a smile and Robyn chuckled."Could say the same thing

Drew had woken up really early the day after Robyn's wedding. It had taken place at their grandfather's house and him, Ella, August, Kat, Layla and Lionel had stayed back because Ella had slept off. He decided to pick up the trash and was later joined by August and Lionel.The tables had already been moved luckily and it was not so bad."So what's the story between our sister and our cousin?" August suddenly said."RT and Tristan?""Obviously, which other sister dobwe have?""If you're going to be a wise ass I wont tell you."

The many people going in and out of the room made Robyn dizzy. She was already nervous and the people just made it worse. She started thinking of how things would go. She prayed hard that it would all end well. But what of someone decides to hurt her or Beau? Or even any of the family and friends. They had invited close friends and families only but still, what if?She glanced to her right at Tara whose make up was being done. She looked excited and Robyn wondered if it was only from the wedding or something else. Her hands had started sweating."Ells, can you please call Ma." She whispered to her best friend."Sure thing." Ella said standing up. "Hey are you finished? Good, all of you out! Leave the brides alone.""Thanks Layla. Oh can you call my mother too please." Tara said.After a few minutes, Viv and Beatrice walked in with Leah and Mrs Hughes. They rushed in.

The new tables and chairs had been arranged beautifully. The place looked so extravagant with the new curtains and lighting all over it. Even the romantic VIP tables were separated from the rest. They were private and intimate. Additional staff had been hired to cater for a lot of people as the place had been made bigger with new classic uniforms. The kitchen was packed with new equipment and extra fire extinguishing measures.Chef Jacob and Lefa were so excited that they looked like children about to go on a joy ride or going to the ice cream parlor. Lefa was wearing a suit today which was uncanny. He did not like dressing up at all but for this day he looked like a movie star.Robyn saw Michael bring in a carton of olive oil bottles into the kitchen. He looked at her ashamed. She was sure he regretted what he did the time in the hospital and ransom thing. She had asked the police not to charge him and that his father not be told anything abo

Colin shifted in the front passenger seat where he sat in Beau's car. He was glad that Beau was driving because he was as nervous as a child on their firs day of school. He stretched his hand and grabbed the bottled water at the cupholder. He drank a little and then tapped his hand in quick movements at the the dashboard."Col, stop worrying, it will be fine." Beau said."Easy for you to say.""You're right, I don't know a thing but no matter what they test says, you're still my brother." Beau said sincerely."Thanks brother. When did Robyn and Mom say they will get there?""Maybe father than us. The traffic from Mom's place is better than our side.""Yeah you're right. I hope that douche does not start with RT or mom.""You're keen on calling her that huh?""What? It's cool. I can't call her baby, you already do that. Or Robbie, Roh, an

Beau watched the rain fall and form puddles on the ground. The grass was almost being drowned by the water. He turned around and watched Robyn sleeping. She always loved the rain, it brought her peace. To him many times too,but not tonight.Colin had told him that James was the one who was visiting Kiara and feeding her and Brett all the information. He had shown him the video of their visit. He did not know how to tell Robyn about that. For Colin it had fed the fire of dislike for his father. He had talked Colin down from confronting James. Colin was going through a lot at the moment.There was a loud thunder clap that startled him. He heard Robyn wimper and went to the bed.He cuddled her while running his circles in her hair. "Shhhh. It's okay. I'm here." He cooed at her.Then another thunderclap sounded, louder than the first and Robyn sat up opening her eyes.

The garden at the Grand Hachi's had been transformed into a fairlytale themed magical place. The pink and white lilies and roses in vases laid all over the tables. The orange and cream lanterns hung in the poles all over the garden giving off a wonderful glow.Robyn was getting lemon water for Ella and an apple for Kat. She had been trying to calm them down the whole day. Each of them had something to get all worked up about. If it was not the hair, it was the something else."Hey Roh, Aunt Viv is looking for you." Layla told her as she came towards her."Oh no. Please tell her I'm caught up.""She says it won't take long.""Fine. Here, take the warm lemon water to Ella and the apple to Kat.""You got it.""Oh and remind the makeup artist not to use anything with olive oil on Ella, she is terribly allergic.""Go. I go

Colin studied James' face as he read through the sales and rights agreement. He smiled more as he read on. He glanced at Tristan who was looking at them with amusement."Well. All seems in order here." James said signing it off. "Congratulations Mr Tristan. Good luck working with him son. I hear he is ruthless. You will be begging to sell it soon." He whispered the last part and watched Tristan and his lawyer leave. Colin was left with his father and his lawyer."Can't you even wish well for your son? I am your flesh and blood.""You are my son. But you don't really expect me to be on your side when you made it very clear you were against me.""You wanted me to stand by and let you hurt my brother?" Colin asked him."That bastard is not your brother!!!!" James yelled. "He is nothing just like his stupid father. That lame excuse of a......"Colin did not let him catch his

Ella had her head on Drew's chest while the latter rubbed slow circles in her hair. It was comforting but unlike this time she was not relaxed at all. Her mind soul was restless and she did not know who to talk to.Normally she would go to Robyn but she did not want her to worry more."Are you going to tell me what's bothering you?" Drew asked her."I'm fine love.""Mmmhh...." He lifted her chin up gently and kissed her. "Sweetheart you're not. Talk to me,please. You know I'm right here with you no matter what.""Promise?" She asked pleadingly."Cross my heart." He said giving her a peck on the forehead.She sighed heavily. "It's my fault Robyn got kidnapped again and almost died."Drew made a confused face.
