ALMOST KISSFIRST FLOOR, THE BRAVES CLUB, 9:45PM.The match was quite tough as both Andrew and Robin were pros in virtual football."Yes, yes, yes! I'm so beating your ass," Robin screamed as she scored her first goal before the half time and bumped her shoulder with Andrew, which had him saying with a frown."Oh yeah, let's see about that in the next half, it's just 1-0, I'll definitely win at the end.""Tough luck there man, I don't think so," she replied as they continued with the second half and at the end of it all, it was a tie with a score of 1-1."I really hate losing, but I guess having a draw is not so bad anyway and just so you know, I went easy on you," Andrew said as he sat and took a sip of the mineral water on his desk."Whatever, we are equals at the game. I remember you promised to tell me about Jenna, so spill. She's so beautiful, I mean what happened between you guys, why did you break up. Just feel free and talk about it, this will probably be the last time we have

HOSPITAL ROOMTHE BRAVES CLUB, 10:25PM."Robin, wait please!" Andrew yelled again and at this point everyone started murmuring about what was happening.Just as he made a move to follow Robin, Jenna took a hold of his forearm. "Where do you think you going Andrew?" She asked in a tight voice, conscious of how everyone was watching them."Jenna, I don't answer to you or anyone else. Wherever I'm going has absolutely nothing to do with you, got it?" He answered as he ran out after Robin, without sparing her another glance."Andrew, get back here this minute. Andrew!" Jenna yelled, but he was long gone.John who had been sitting with Robin also followed after her when Andrew ran after her.Taking a microphone, Jenna stepped up to the stage and said, "Everyone, feel free to continue with the party, while my boyfriend rewards Robin Stevens for her help in clearing things up in our relationship. There's no problem, the donation for The Braves Club will start now."Joe came up to her as she

EAVESDROPPINGJACK'S HOSPITAL ROOM, 11:30PM"I'm just kidding, I'm only here because I feel totally responsible for Jack. I hit him while drunk driving and I want to give my apologies to him myself, that's what a real man will do," Andrew replied with a proud look across his face."So it's now you wanna be a real man and own up to your actions huh?" Robin said in a slightly raised tone."Keep it down, we don't wanna wake Jack up, now do we?" Andrew warned her."Whatever, just leave. You're free to come back tomorrow to visit.""No thanks, I'm staying here tonight, besides nine of the guys will be home, they never come home after a party, if you know what I mean," Andrew said with a playful smile."You guys are just players. I don't remember asking about your friends nightly activities," Robin answered to which Andrew replied with a laugh.Silence fell upon the room and thirty minutes later, Robin found her eyes feeling too heavy to stay open and finally she fell asleep at Jack's bedsi

THE FOUR RULES.BUTTERFLY LODGE, 7PM.The sound of a knock at the door had Robin getting up from the couch where she sat, working on her game for The Braves.Opening up the door, a brunette of average height and electric-blue eyes, in a white sweat shirt and pink jeans, stared back at her with her hands raising in a wave."Hi, you must be Robin, I'm Stacey Anne Waters, your roommate," the girl said."Hello Stacey, it's a pleasure meeting you. Come on in, I'll help you unpack your things. It's been really boring here and it's great to finally have another person in this room," Robin replied as she drew her closer for a hug."Me too, there's also another girl who'd be joining us next week,""Really, wow that's great. What's her name?""Clara Peters, she's in her second year, studying Computer Science. Oh my, I'm so tired," Stacey replied as she took a seat on one of the couches in their tiny but cozy self contained flat.Much later after Stacey had taken a shower and they had unpacked h

FAMILYANDREW'S SEDAN, 9PM."Why aren't you saying anything? I want to know why you've been playing Mr. nice guy for the past two weeks. I've only tolerated it because of Jack, but now he's gone, so you don't have to pretend to be nice. When we get to my lodge, I'd appreciate it if you left me alone and never showed your face to me anymore, got it?""What do you mean by Mr. nice guy? I was only helping Jack out, it was my fault for putting him in that condition, it's only natural that I show my kindness to him and as for leaving you alone, that's not happening, since you're feeling bad about Jack leaving, I'd take you somewhere. Get ready to meet my family," Andrew replied with a short laugh as he turned the car to the right and stepped on the accelerator which had Robin yelling at him to slow down."What family? I don't want to meet your family okay, so turn the car around you're supposed to be taking me home and not to visit anyone!""Too late we're almost there, remember Benny from

THE KISSTHE BROWN HOUSE, 11:30AM.Stepping into the room after Andrew, Robin took note of the casual design of the room, with the walls painted blue and regular bedroom furniture in place."Hey Cousin, Sophie, how are you?" Andrew asked, pulling a blonde, tall and lanky guy who had on a bright smile at their entrance, into a tight hug. She concluded he was Riley, as he looked almost the same as in the family portraits. Andrew waved at a tall and slender raven haired girl, who she guessed must be Sophie."I'm good as always, Drew. Now who do we have here, huh?" Riley replied.Taking Robin by the waist and planting a kiss on her cheeks, he replied, "This is the reason for my happiness these days, my girlfriend, Robin Jane Stevens. Robin, meet my crazy but best cousin ever, Riley Brown and the love of his life, Sophie Richard."Playing along with him and deciding not to flinch at his kiss on her cheeks, Robin forced a smile and stretched out her hands to shake both of them and the sound

MAKING DECISIONS,BUTTERFLY LODGE, 7PM.Stacey opened up the door for Robin to come in and asked, "What happened, why did you come back so late? Classes ended about two hours ago, I asked John and he also had no idea where you had gone.""I'm sorry to have gotten you all worked up. After Andrew and I dropped Jack off, he took me over to his uncle's house," Robin answered as she took off her wristwatch and shoes."What did you say? He took you to his Uncle's house?""Yeah and you know what's worse he introduced me to them as his girlfriend, I don't even like this guy, so how could I possibly be his girlfriend?""That's not what you're portraying, you know?" Stacey asked with a teasing look."What do you mean?""All you've been doing for the past two weeks is talking about him and what he did. Look don't get me wrong, I know Andrew very well, he might seem like a bad guy, given his previous reputation with girls, but I really don't think he's playing around this time.""Why not?""He ha

THE STRATEGYBUTTERFLY LODGE, 6AM."Ding dong," the sound of the doorbell went off, which had Stacey getting up from her bed and wiping her face, being a light sleeper she had the tendency to wake up at the slightest disturbance compared to Robin who was a deep sleeper and was still asleep above her on the bunk bed."Ding dong," the bell went off and this time Robin woke up and asked while wiping her eyes, "who is it so early in the morning? Are you expecting anyone Stace?""Yeah, remember I told you we were gonna be having a new roommate? She's probably the one at the door, she texted me yesterday and said she'll be coming today. Sorry I didn't tell you, it skipped my mind, I'll just go check if it's her," Stacey replied in a croaky voice as she yawned.Robin got down the stairs of the bed and followed Stacey to the door. They opened it up to see a pretty brunette holding two red suitcases and a black handbag. She had on a red dress with minimal make up and red heels and everything s

CHAPTER NINETEEN
FIRST DAY AT WORK.THE BRAVES, CLUB, ANDREW'S OFFICE."Hello gorgeous, you're welcome to The Braves. I hope you're brave enough anyway," Miller said with a wink to Robin."Thanks, I'll surely do my best," Robin replied with a smile."Let's go Miller, we have a lecture to attend, remember? See you later man," Joe said as he dragged Miller along with him out of the office.After the door clicked shut, Andrew pinned his eyes on Robin as he walked towards where she stood with her hands clutching the straps of her backpack at the corner of the room.Taking steps backwards at every step he made, she said, "Uhm, I received the letter and I came here to say that I accept the assistant position.""Really? What about what I asked you to think about? What is your answer?" He asked as he came close to her, with his hands beside her shoulders on the wall.Realizing how close they were now and feeling his minty breath on her face, she tried to escape from under his arms, but Andrew held her back."

SO MUCH FOR EYE ROLLS?ANDREW'S OFFICE, THE. BRAVES CLUB, 10:30PM.Andrew took the coffee from Robin and said, "You don't have to be upset about what Jenna said, I know her very well, those are just harmless threats, just forget it. Damn, this coffee tastes amazing," he said with a satisfied look on his face."I'm not worried, I mean you are the one who has come after me, I didn't steal you from anybody. I'm glad you like the coffee anyways, you said you and I are gonna be going out, where are we going?""It's a secret, you just have to pack up your things and follow me. Take today as your freetime to do whatever you want, from tomorrow, work will be as it should be. I'm sure you must have seen the posters of the Regional Gaming Competition for all colleges in the country, I'd like you to come up with some ideas for the game we would submit for this competition by the end of this week.""Wow, really?
