Chapter Nine
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."<

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.

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 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.

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.
