“Hello?” she picked up.

“Who’s this?”.

“young lady Noir, it’s me, Chris.”

“Chris? Why are you calling me?”.

“Are you nearby any taxi?”.

“Taxi? Well…..” there was one waiting beside the road.

“Why?”.

“Then get up on it, then I’ll explain everything to you.”

“But why? Where am I going?”.

“To Trevor. I will explain everything after this. But now get moving. This is important.”

She could notice the urgency in his tone.

“What happened exactly? Do you mind explaining?”.

“Just get in the taxi!”.

“Well….sure then.”

“Hurry up, we don’t have any time to waste.”

“Fine, fine.”

She crossed the road and hopped onto the taxi. She called him back and he began talking.

Zoe seemed to be depressed from what Chelsa could see. He held his head low, as Nick patted him on the back.“Please get over this, it’s not such a big deal.” Chelsa said in a soothing tone.“It didn’t happen to you. What would you even understand?” Zoe retorted back with a glare.She clicked her tongue and stood up right away.“Then remain depressed. Nobody even wants to help you out. Loser!”.“let’s go Nick! There’s no point trying to sooth a barking dog. Let him stay by himself. We have work to do, or else Boss will get angry at us as well for him. They say that you should never help someone out of courtesy. I can see it very much well.” She said in a sarcastic tone.“But Chelsa, you are being too harsh towards him. You can see his condition.

    Robin’s dad arrived in front of the gate with a bunch of men behind them. He kicks the gate violently and walked inside without any kind of invitation at all.This may seem too rude to anyone as he kicked the gate instead of just opening it with his hands. Robin stood up on his feet seeing his dad approaching.His eyes widened and his body tensed up, cause he didn’t expect him to arrive today.Bruce also tensed up to see Robin’s dad.His dad walked over to the side of Robin and they both were facing each other at eye level.“How are you, son?” he asked with a forced smile.“And you, Mr. Hamilton, how are you doing as well?” he turned to Bruce.Bruce clenched his fists tightly, gritting his teeth.“How can I not be well when you are looking out for us so much? I’m better than ever because of you.”“Yes, yes, I can see that in your eyes very much well. But, I don’t know for how long you’ll stay well.”Robin furrowed his eyes in confusion.“Dad-“.Richard raised his hand, stopping him fr

    Robin opens his eyes, to hear the familiar voice which he recognized right away. The woman glanced back and their eyes met. It is Noir who arrived at the spot and stood in front of Robin before the bulldozer hit him.His eyes widened seeing her face.“W-what are you doing here?” he yelled.“To protect you of course, now shut me and let me do the talking.”She stepped forward and looked in the direction of Robin’s dad.“Uncle….” She ran up to his side.“Why were you trying to run the bulldozer over his body? Have you gone nuts or something?” she asked him.“No, and who told you to come here? Let him do his work. Why did you stop it?” he grunts, glaring at her.“You must have lost your mind when he didn’t want to listen to you. I understand your frustration, but just because of that you can’t murder your son for the sake of some strangers can you?”.“Yes! I can!”.“You have disbelief in my abilities? I can show you what I can do and can’t.”“Uncle, be reasonable. He’s your son. At this

    Robin sneered, “Is this your new game or something? Why are you apologizing suddenly?”.His dad furrowed his eyes in dismay.“I feel wrong about my behavior that’s why I’m apologizing. What kind of a behavior is this towards your dad? Is this how I have raised you Robin?”.“And did you forgot yourself what kind of behavior you have behaved with all of us here? You told the bulldozer to run over us cause we were not giving up this house. And now you are playing the victim here, don’t you have any shame?”.Seeing the situation growing even more complicated than it’s already is, Noir stepped forward and interrupted them without thinking.“Robin!”.She stood beside his dad faced him.“He has realized that his actions are wrong, and because of that he’s apologizing. Why don’t you understand his feelings at all?”.“Calm down and listen to what he’s telling you. He has no bad intention at all.”Robin raised his eyes in suspicion.“And why are you trying to cover for him? Were you the one who

    Robin stepped forward and turns to Noir.“Even if I believe that you are telling me the truth. I still don’t believe dad is apologizing for his deeds. Can you prove this is not an acting?”.“How can this be acting?” his dad interrupted yelling.“I am apologizing for real. Believe me!”.“When you have done so many bad things to me, you are telling me to believe in you?” Robin retorted.“You wanted to destroy this house. Why will you suddenly become kind, right?”.“This has to be some sort of acting or sorcery. Make me believe you.”Richard sighs, fisting his hands tightly.“He’s testing my patience. I need to calm down.”After taking some quick breaths, he asked, "Then what do I have to do to make you believe in me? I'll do anything." "Just say it!".Robin glanced at Bruce. Bruce patted Robin's back."Your dad is apologizing so much. Don't you think you can believe in him and forgive him?

    Lucy’s eyes froze to the figure which stood in front of her. How is this man even able to accuse her even without any proof at all? Isn’t he the one who promised to stay by her side no matter what?Then how is he able to accuse her blindly?“Lucy!” Robin called out.“Answer!
