Meeting Again 60-Strange talks
"Tanya, you're choking me!" I said in a strangled voice as Tanya's hand tightened around my neck. She quickly let go of me and apologized, "I am sorry! I got too emotional." "What are you getting all emotional over a gift for?" I laughed. "I do not have that many friends to shower me with gifts, you know," Tanya held the packages to her heart as if it was a treasure. "What? Why not?" I asked, looking at her, surprised. "Well…" she stretched the word for long but then abruptly changed the subject, "You have the morning shift tomorrow, right?" I didn't want to force her to talk, so I went along, "Yep! I don't want to burden Samuel so much, especially when Jenny is pregnant." "Ah, I see. Then, will you and Twen be free enough to join me for my birthday dinner tomorrow?" Tanya asked, smiling at me with sincerity. "Why not?" I smiled back. "Ummm-" she seemed to be hesitating to say something, but her eyes were brightly glowing as she looked at me. "What?" I asked, getting self-con

Robbie was sleeping, tangling around me like a vine. It took me ten whole minutes to untangle myself from his octopus-like grip. Getting down, I glanced at Robbie's pretty face, which now has an unhealthy pallor over it, with visible dark circles under his eyes and unkempt hair over his forehead. The past few days must have been quite hard on him. His confrontation with his dad has resulted in him being in a difficult situation. Although he did not mention details of the dispute, I knew he left his house in the end. He did not even tell me where he was staying. According to him, the less I know, the better. It is hard not to feel sorry for the difficult situation he has landed in. I wanted to tell him to make peace with his dad, but thinking of the conditions his dad has put forward, I cannot bring myself to say it. I patted his head subconsciously but quickly withdrew my hand when I saw him moving. Shaking my head, I went out to get refreshed. Twen woke up half an hour later when I

The winter rolled in quietly this year. Working in a hotel, you can never tell when the season changes unless it's the fluctuation of incoming customers. I slightly shivered as I got out of the quarters holding Twen's hand. He looked very happy and had a little hop in his steps. I was a little surprised to see that Robbie was not in his black sedan but a convertible. I guessed that he might not have taken his car when he left his home. He unlocked the car as we took our seats. I put Twen on the backseat and put his seat belt on. "You have gotta tell me the route!" Robbie said, starting the car. "First, we have to pick up Fred," I said as I put my seat belt on. "Why? Can't he go on his own?" Robbie asked sourly. "He and Tanya are quite newly acquainted. He is feeling odd going alone," I told him. "What a big baby!" Robbie said but still drove towards the Deliziosa restaurant. "Well, he is younger than you," I laughed. Robbie 'hmphed' but didn't say anything more. I saw Twen look

The question took me off guard. Since male Omegas have a huge bias in society, I was not sure if Mr. Jonas was simply asking out of curiosity or because he didn't like Tanya being around me. However, his next sentence threw all my worries out of the window, "Relax! I am not judging you. I was simply intrigued by you as my daughter wouldn't shut up about you." I breathed a sigh of relief, so that was the case. I laughed lightly as I said, "Tanya and I have been friends for the last four years, so I guess it's natural." Mr. Jonas looked at me with unfathomable eyes as he said in a tone heavy with complex feelings, "That's not all. You are her first true friend who stayed with her despite knowing her true sub-gender." This is new information to me. Tanya and I might have been friends for long, but I got to know her true gender only recently, and I hardly knew anything about her past. Since I didn't want my past to be questioned, I refrain from asking about others. I never knew that

The question was so out of the blue that for a few seconds my brain stopped functioning. I have never told Tanya that Fred had feelings for me, but she is stuck on the idea ever since she saw him and Robbie in the restaurant. No matter what I told her, she is fixated on that. Now how do I explain why I chose Robbie? I chose him because I loved him. I bonded with him because I wanted him to be a part of my life, but of course, never did I think such a twist would happen in my life. The reason I couldn't choose Fred, even though he loved me, was because I didn't want to hurt him. I couldn't reciprocate his feelings, and I felt it was unfair to be with him when I don't feel the same for him. I felt he deserved better. How do I explain all this to Tanya? She was looking at me with wide, curious eyes like a kid. I sighed as I arranged my thoughts, "Why are you asking? In fact, why do you even think that Fred has anything for me?" I asked Tanya, trying to change the topic. "Because I am n

Our trip back home was quite uneventful. Fred got very close to Mr. Jonas, and they both even hugged before parting. Tanya and Fred left on friendly terms, except Fred stood at one hand distance from her. It looked strange that they were speaking in such a friendly way from such a distance. Twen woke up after a short nap and was offered ice cream, which he happily gobbled up. Tanya came and hugged me before saying with a wide smile on her face, "Thank you so much for coming. See you tomorrow at work." "See you! Happy birthday again!" I smiled, hugging her back. Robbie gave Tanya a short one-handed hug and asked her to take care while Mr. Jonas shook hands with him, and Mrs. Teena said warmly to all of us, "All of you, visit us again. I would love to have you all back." We all smiled and reassured her that we would come again. Tanya has got such a lovely family. I looked back at them waving at us without being able to hide my longing. I quickly shook my head and reminded myself th

"You seem to be more attached to your mother than your dad," I told Robbie as I slowly opened the window to his car. "Yeah!" Robbie answered, shifting the gear. Twen was sitting in the backseat leaning on the seat playing some games on Robbie's cell. Earlier yesterday, we told him that we would be meeting his grandmother today. I was a little worried that he would deny the meeting since he didn't show any emotion on getting the news. He remained quiet for a little while and only asked if it is his grandmother who wishes to meet him. Robbie patted his head and said that she is dying to meet him. To which he simply shrugged and said, "Okay." I am not sure if he is happy with the meeting or not, but hopefully, Robbie's mother can make him happy. I looked at the road as we entered the bypass. It is full of cars, after all, it is a Saturday. Most jobs have half-day work, during the evening, roads are very congested. I turned my eyes away from the road and asked Robbie hesitatingly, "Do

The woman who just walked in has the same pitch-black curly hair (tied in an elegant bun) and gray eyes like that of Robbie's. However, unlike him, she has an oval face, a soft, kind mouth, and a glowing wheatish complexion. She is quite short with a lean structure, but her presence is quite large. She has the word 'class' written in every nook and cranny of her stature. It is so profound that even some of the cafe's customers turned to look at her. My jaw dropped on seeing Mrs. Walker. Not only is she a beauty, but she barely looks thirty. Had I not known she was Robbie's mother, I would have thought she was Robbie's sister. Mrs. Walker is such a sophisticated and classy lady that I suddenly felt under-dressed. Even in her hurried and exhausted form, she still managed to look very elegant. I was completely tongue-tied on seeing her. Robbie got up and hugged her, chirping, in a happy tone, "Mum, sorry to call you when you're so busy." She patted his back with a bright smile, "Absol

Meeting Again 80-End Epilogue
(A short summary on the lives of all)( 5 months after the events of chap 98)Tony and Robbie happily married with the blessing of Ashley and his well-wishers. Tony sent the wedding invitation to his parents too against Robbie's wishes. Tony simply said,"They are the reason, I am in this world, they are the reason I met you, so no matter how much they despise me, I still want them to be part of my happiness"Robbie acknowledged that he could never win Tony with words! Tony was even prepared to forgive Mr. Walker's horrid deed, as he didn't want Robbie to be deprived of his father, however, Robbie straight off refused it."He had never been much of a father to me. He treated Roger more dearly than me" Robbie said with a slight tinge of despair.Tony never raised the topic again. He didn't want to see Robbie hurting. Twen and Robbie finally got time to bond. Twen, though very reserved in the beginning, slowly started opening up to Robbie's constant trying. Robbie made a fixed time for
Meeting Again 79-Bonus Chapters
Fred's POVNot even a month back in La Costa and I received a marriage invitation from Tony! Do you call it fate? I looked at the invitation feeling an odd sensation running through me. I can't pinpoint what feeling it was but I can describe it through an example. It was like seeing off your parents at the train station when you leave the house for the first time. As the train slowly picks up speed, you see your parents slowly disappearing from your view and an odd sensation settles in your heart. It was the very same sensation that was passing through me.I was due to return in a few days but now somehow, I just didn't feel like returning. I put the invitation beside me and looked at my half-filled restaurant, towards the customers who were enjoying their snacks, laughing cheerfully with their friends and family. I don't know why, the scenario, though beautiful, made me unhappy, so, I settled at staring outside the restaurant towards the sandy beach.A lot of thoughts were running th

Robbie's POVTanya had been inside Tony's room for quite sometime. I wonder what's going on. Hopefully, she can talk him out of his miserable state of mind. I had been quite useless in that regard. Twen was sitting on mum's lap reading a book. He had been getting very impatient waiting to see Tony,"Granny Ash, why can't I see mommy?" Twen asked in an upset voiceMum patted his head, "Honey, your mum is a little busy. His friend had come to visit him"Twen blinked innocently, "Friend? Is it Uncle Fred?"Mum laughed breezily, "No it's Tanya. Do you wanna meet her too?" mum asked to see Twen's upset expression replaced with a bright look.Mum just mentioned it and I heard a click on the door. Tanya came out along with Tony who looked extremely nervous. Before I could react, Twen bounced down my mum's lap and cried excitedly,"Mommy!!"Tony's anxious expression cleared on seeing Twen. Twen went running to him followed by my mum and wrapped his little arms round his waist. I saw Tony smil
Meeting Again 77-Alone
Robbie's POVNext DayAs Mr. Olsen said, there was nothing found in the ruins of the house of Emaulsen, neither in Tony's blood-stream nor Twen. Though chloroform (it was banned in our country, and so, was illegal) was applied on Twen, its quantity was just enough for anesthetic purposes and because of its property of not staying in body for long, no trace was found. It was the same with Tony. The only medicine detected was NSAIDs drugs or in other words, just simple ibuprofen usually used for ridding of hangovers and was legal. The trace of the very same drug was also found in the glass that was collected from ruins. There was nothing whatsoever to prove Mr. Olsen's guilt or association with illegal drugs. It was so frustrating that I ended up wall punching and injuring my already injured hands (because of rashly breaking a wine glass) and ended up being scolded by mum.Fred who too came to meet Tony along with Sam, who was in the same hospital as Jenny, were all as frustrated as I w
Meeting Again 76-a small win
Robbie's POVI don't know why the idea of being unclean had lodged in Tony's head. Why would he think that just because of what happened I would look down on him or not see him as fitting to be my partner? I am not one of those outdated person who thinks only virgin guy and girls are pure and clean. But most unfortunately, our society had always promoted such inferior ideas. And many of the men have even gobbled down that idea without once thinking how demeaning and downgraded the thought was. But maybe Tony's case was different. It might be the shock of what happened rather than the society's regressive ideologies. But I won't let him wallow in self hatred and disgust.1I calmed him a bit, though, he was still looking disturbed. I made him close his eyes and lean on the seat for rest. Closing the SUV's door of backseat, I took long strides to where Fred was. He looked extremely mad about something. I have to stop him before he ends up doing something and landing himself in jail. I h

Warning: Mention of physical, emotional and mental abuse; Strong LanguageRobbie's POV"What the hell are you doing here?" Fred grumbled the moment I slammed the door to his SUV, "And why did y-""Start driving. We don't have time to chit chat!" I said, hmphing irritably"You're one to talk! You wasted fifteen damn minutes dragging me and the cops here," Fred complained, giving a furtive look at the cops."There is a reason for that! So, where is that jacka*s?" I asked in a low growl, also eyeing the two cop cars behind in the rear-view mirror."Here," Fred said, placing his cell phone under my nose and stamping on the accelerator at the same time.I looked at the location. My eyes widened. No wonder Mr. Olsen is confident that no one will be able to locate him. I grumbled agitatedly,"The ruined mansion of Emaulsen!""What? What's that?" Fred asked while quickly taking his cell phone back to navigate the route and gesturing to the cops to follow his car."That's Olsen's paternal hous
Meeting Again 74-Ranting
Robbie's POVI stood there bewildered at dad's reply. How could he just lie like that? If he doesn't know anything, then why did the kidnapper make a stop in front of our villa? To admire it? Mum felt suspicious too. She asked in a firm tone,"Ric, a child's life is in danger, and he also happens to be your grandson-""I have no grandson," Dad interrupted mum, eyeing her with cold fury."I don't care whether you see him as your grandson or not, but he is my son! I won't let you harm him," I said, gritting my teeth and stepping forward, looking at dad with rage.Dad raised an eyebrow, speaking each word with the chilliness of the north pole, "You think I would do such lowly things like harming a boy!""If you did not make my son disappear, then why the hell did the kidnapper stop here?" I asked in an equally cold voice."What nonsense!!" Dad burst out, slamming the desk and glaring at me."It's not nonsense, dad. The kidnapper's car was caught on traffic surveillance and shown to make
Meeting Again 73-What do you want?
Warning: Mention of drugs, hints of sexual abuse, Kidnapping, & strong languageI felt like someone kicked me in the guts. I looked at him wide-eyed in disbelief. This guy, a member of the congress, a well-known television face, a politician, and a friend of Robbie's dad, he ordered my son's abduction?? Why?? Just because I fell on him!?"I can see a lot of questions on your face," he chuckled again, "I am sure rather than answers to those questions, this is what you want to see," he said, pulling out his cell phone, tapping something on it quickly, and turning the screen towards me.From this distance, I could see nothing. I left the headboard and dragged my feet to the end of the bed. As I reached close, I saw Twen on the screen."TWEN!!" I screamed and staggered towards the armchair, falling face forward on the floor.I heard a creak as Mr. Olsen got up from the chair and walked towards me. I looked up, sitting on my knees. He held out the cell phone to my face, where I saw Twen sl
Meeting Again 72-Not Tony too
It was only an hour-long flight, but it felt like an eternity. Once I landed in Warham, I quickly proceeded to take a cab. Since my return was sudden, my car was not prepared ahead of time. I wanted to go meet Tony first. But at the moment, my mind was so absorbed in my suspicions over dad that I first wanted to run and confirm whether it was him. If it were him, then I would get Twen back. I just couldn't bring myself to believe that dad could have fallen so low. Today's altercation between us might as well be the end of our relationship as well as my mum's too. I feel unbearably guilty of pulling mum into this as well, but there is no other choice. Mum tried her best to maintain the happy family image before me so that I don't feel sad or isolated. Yet, today many people have suffered because of my choices. Tony, Twen, Mom...how am I ever going to forgive myself for bringing such a disaster on them all? I clenched my fist in anger.My guilty reflection got interrupted by a call. It
