CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE
IT'S ALL ABOUT FORGIVENESS PT 3AMUSEMENT PARK, 11AM.Andrew got up from the bench where they were seated and faced Robin, "What sort of question is that? I told you I've never loved Jenna, she has only been a friend of mine, a fellow tool in our parent's quest for continuing business between both families.""Then that's all the more reason why you should look at things from her point of view. She was also forced by her dad to be in a relationship with you, despite her love for Joe and she was just too scared to let anyone know that she didn't like you." Robin said while getting up also."I'm not mad at Jenna, I can understand that she's only a girl and has no other person supporting her after she lost her mum, but Joe is the one I'm mad at. He is a cool guy, the governor's son, the one who gives all of us the best advice and it is just so out of character for him to do something like that, behind my back. If he truly loves Jenna, he should have been brave enough to talk to her dad ab

AWKWARDNESS AND ACROPHOBIA?AMUSEMENT PARK 12PM.Clara turned to Evans at the sound of that nickname. "What the hell did you just call me?" She asked in a cool voice.With a mocking look, he asked "C, what's wrong with me calling you C? That's not even the question I have for you. Why did you do it? Why did you turn your back on me, on all your friends that summer. Why did you leave London? I want answers, don't sit there looking at me that way.""I don't want you to call me that, my name is Clara and if you are going to sit there and order me around for answers to your stupid questions, then I'd like to take my leave now. Between us both, I think I'm the one who needs answers. I deserve an explanation for your behaviour that summer. You betrayed me and our relationship, you were not there when I needed you. I hate the fact that I have to run into you from time to time because we share common friends, but I'd like to ask you a favour, let this be the last time we talk about the past.

REGIONAL PLANSBUTTERFLY LODGE, 8:30PM."Hey ginger, what are you doing now?" Andrew asked from over the phone.Robin sat up in her bed, she had been busy daydreaming about she and Andrew and had been reminiscing the events of the entire day."I was just about to go to bed, what about you babe?" She asked while twirling a stand of her ginger red hair with a smile."I was just thinking about you and what I told you on the Ferris Wheel, I really meant it, you know?"That brought her mind to their conversation on the Ferris Wheel. They had just left the carousel which Robin had wanted to get on so badly and got on their last ride which was the Ferris Wheel.Somehow during the roller coaster ride, Andrew had almost passed out, but for Robin who held his hand throughout the ride and he finally found it enjoyable.She made him get on other rides which were dangerous and several feet high up, so he finally overcame his fear of heights.On the Ferris Wheel, they took pictures together and all

He was in a terrible mood after last night when he had that argument with Robin, he could barely sleep, knowing she was mad at him.After calling countless times and sending several texts, she had ignored him through it all. That had him deciding to get some breakfast before going over to her lodge to speak with her.When he got to the kitchen, he was surprised at the sight he witnessed.In front of the stove were, Joe and Jenna mixing ingredients for pancakes. Jenna had a slight frown of concentration on her face, as Joe explained something to her."What's going on here? This is really a weird sight, I never thought I'd live to see the day when Jenna steps into a kitchen to cook. Keep it up, so what are you guys making?"Jenna frowned before hissing. “Why would you say that? This is the new me, I want to learn how to make pancakes and Joe baby, is the best cook

FIGURING THINGS OUTTHE MEETING ROOM, THE BRAVES CLUB 3:15PM"Good afternoon everyone, sorry for being late. I had to prepare for my presentation," Robin said in a rush as she panted from running all the way to the meeting room."I hope the fifteen minutes of our time, you've wasted is worth it Miss Stevens," Andrew said with a serious look.Everyone around the meeting table fixed their eyes on Robin and Andrew, as they wondered why he was talking that way to her.Harry smirked, thinking they had a fight. It was no secret that they were dating so why was he sounding so cold to her, if not because they broke up, he thought."Of course Mr Andrew," Robin answered with a slight frown."Then please start already, we don't have all day okay? We don't usually give newbies big projects like the one you have been given. Whatever plan you have for The Regional Gaming Competition has to be awesome. Now proceed," he snapped.Opening up her laptop and connecting it to the large screen in the room,

SPERM DONOR?ANDREW'S APARTMENT, 5:30PM"What is your dad's favourite food?" Robin asked as she went through the bag of groceries they had shopped together for."I don't know," Andrew answered distractedly as he scrolled through the business news on his phone."What do you mean you know? He's your dad," Robin almost screamed with a shocked look on her face."Okay, just make something Italian, like pasta, lasagne and vegetable salad. Then some apple pie for dessert, that's what Mum used to make for him," he replied with a hurt look.As Robin noticed how he mentioned his Mum's name in past tense, she remembered her conversation with Margie that afternoon when she visited them."Margie there are some things I don't understand yet about Drew, why does he refer to his dad as his old man? Why doesn't he like talking about his mum? I've tried searching the internet for pictures of Christina Grey, but it's almost like she never existed, there are no pictures of her. Please tell me something M

Robin had never seen him that way, not even when he fought with John. She decided that she hated this side of him, it was very scary to her."What are we doing here Drew? Who's house is this?"

Evans asked as Andrew stepped in and Miller also nodded in question at him."Silas Grey was here for dinner with Robin and I last night. As usual he got me mad, so I took Robin to cool off, we spent the night together," Andrew replied before taking a seat on one of the couches in the living room."What? Silas Grey, your father was here, why? Wait a minute, you still went ahead to sleep with Robin? Damn man, you're a scum bag," Evans said, surprised."Why is he a scum bag? Wasn't that the plan, I thought he actually forgot about it, but of course Andrew is such a great player. That's great man, how was it? That girl must have been really good, come on tell us, when will you dump her? Damn I wasn't expecting you to win the bet this time, that means you get to keep my new car.

She said she never wants to see me again, but she works for me and the club needs her,""Why should we do that?

HIS STORYANDREW'S OFFICE, 3:30PM.Andrew stood in front of the glass windows with his hands in his pockets, his back to Robin. The memories being too painful for him, he didn't want Robin to see how hurt he was by all that had happened in the past."My parents, Silas and Christina Grey got married due to an unexpected pregnancy. Mum was only twenty three and Silas twenty six." Andrew paused and led her to take a seat with him on the couch. He drank some water, before clearing his throat as Robin turned to face him.Andrew continued, "When they first met, Silas had been a womaniser and a party animal. My grandparents had tried all they could to get him to settle down with a girl of the same upbringing and social status as him, but to no avail. He met mum at the birthday party of a friend of his and was immediately charmed by her. She was working as a waitress in the restaurant, where the party was being held. They had a one night stand and lost contact after that day. Fate brought the
