PAST SINS

Chapter 1

It had been months since Anna had been back at her apartment in London, it was nice to finally be home. There was a stack of mail that she needed to go through, and a quick glance at the machine shows there are 47 messages waiting for her to listen to, most of which she's sure were from Robin. All of this can wait though, all Anna want to do right now is take a long soak in the tub and then get a good nights sleep in her own bed. Thinking of Robin always makes her smile, as Anna draws her bath she decides she will have to make time to go to Port Charles for a visit and stay for a while, there is one more case to finish off then she hopefully can take some personal time. After her bath, a relaxed Anna crawls into bed and drifts off to sleep almost immediately.

It was close to noon when Anna made her way to her computer with a steaming cup of tea in her hand. She had already gone through the mail, most of it had been bills, nothing interesting there. Once she's checked her emails she will listen to the messages and call Robin, with the time difference she should be up soon. There are a couple emails from Robin but she better deal with the business ones first. As she starts reading through them a new bulletin pops up. She opens it out of habit more than really caring what it might be about. Anna's jaw drops as soon as it opens, how can this be true? A wanted poster stares back at her with the faces of three people, Luke Spencer, Holly Sutton and Robert Scorpio. Can this be true is he really alive? Anna jumps up and rushes over to the answering machine and presses play. The first 12 or 15 that were from Robin sounded like she was just hoping to talk, but then the tone changes. In her next message, Anna can hear it in Robin's voice that she really needs to talk to her. There were a few messages from other people but the ones from Robin seemed to get more desperate. The last one simply said, "Mom call me the minute you hear this, I have to tell you something life changing." That proves it Robin most have found out that Robert is alive.

When Anna called Robin there was no answer, maybe she isn't up yet or maybe she is in the shower or she worked a night shift. Anna starts thinking about Robert while she waits to try Robin again. How could he be alive? If he was out there all this time why had he never come looking for her? He had been the key to getting her memory back when she finally remembered him she remembered everything. Reading the letter he had left Robin about how much he loved her had finally unlocked her mind. She heard his voice, she remembered their life together, how much they loved each other, she also remembered the explosion that changed everything. When that memory had come, she had been certain he had died, he was right there so much closer to the blast then she had been, and in a flash, he was gone. If he's alive why had he never come for her? Where had he been all these years? Did he know what Anna had gone through? Her anger was building with each new question. These questions aren't going to answer themselves she'd better try Robin again maybe she knows something.

After not getting an answer at her apartment or on her cell Anna tries the hospital. Apparently, Robin had taken some time off, Anna wonders where she could be if she has taken time off why isn't she answering her cell phone? It had really sounded like Robin had wanted to talk to her so why isn't she answering her phone, where had she gone? If Robin was going to tell anyone where she had gone it would be her Uncle Mac, so Anna calls him next.

"Hello Anna, I was wondering when I would be hearing from you," Mac said when he answered the phone.

"Hi, Mac. So is it true, is he alive?" Anna asks.

"Yes it is, I've seen him myself," Mac confirmed. "Anna I can't imagine what you're feeling right now but Robert says he had to stay away to keep you and Robin safe."

"I don't care," Anna snaps.

"That's what you say but I know you, Anna. He says he had to stay away to save yours and Robin's lives, apparently, he knew about Robin's HIV and your amnesia but wasn't allowed to come anywhere near either of you," Mac tried to explain.

"Mac, I really don't want to hear any of it. Where's Robin?" Anna asked. "She left me a lot of messages while I was away and now I can't get a hold of her."

"Well, I think she might have gone after Robert," Mac told her about the outbreak at General Hospital that had brought Robert to Port Charles. "After the mess at the hospital Holly took off, then Luke went after her, and if I had to guess Robert went after them both. Robin's taken time off so she might have gone after them as well, as mad as she might be with her father she still wants to make sure he's OK," Mac explains.

"OK well, I guess I'll be the next one to follow them. Thanks for everything Mac, we'll talk more later, bye," Anna ends the call and hangs up.

Anna immediately starts making plans to go after her daughter, who knows what kind of trouble she might be headed for if she's following those three. After a few phone calls, she packs a bag and left her apartment. While she makes her way to the Markum Islands Anna can't help but wonder about Robert again. How could he have survived that explosion? The one thing she had been sure of when she got her memory back was that Robert had died in that explosion. Mac had said he knew about Robin's condition, how could he have let her go through that alone? He should have been there for her, one of her parents should have been there with her. Why would he stay away? Anna wondered if he even worried about what had happened to her. Did he think since she had lost her memory she didn't need him to come for her? How dare him, how could he walk away from their life like it meant nothing. When the chopper pilot came up to say they could leave Anna nearly bit his head off but stopped herself, it wasn't him she was mad at.

"It should take about an hour to get to the area we believe the people you are looking for are in," the pilot told her.

"Well let's get going, there's a couple of people there I really need to see, and the sooner the better," Anna says as they walk towards the helicopter. The report about the encephalitis outbreak at GH was waiting for Anna when she boarded the chopper. During the flight Anna learns that Luke had returned to Port Charles infected with the virus that quickly spread, it had been the same virus Robert had been assigned to contain. Lots of people in Port Charles had been infected, she couldn't stop the tears from falling when she read that Tony Jones had died from it. Luke's daughter had been very ill, then the tears really start to fall when she reads that Robin had gotten ill as well. She could have lost Robin and she wasn't there for her yet again. Anna wipes away her tears, they must be getting close by now, they've been in the air for a while now. Then a big house in the middle of the jungle appears, and she could see people outside. Yes, that's who she's looking for, there's Robin. She gets ready to be lowered down to them, she grabs her gun not knowing what kind of situation she would find down there.

As she climbs down the ladder there was a combination of anger and excitement growing inside of her. As much as she wants to kick Robert's ass she can't wait to see him either. When she hit the ground Anna wanted nothing more than to hold Robin in her arms to make sure she is really there and the virus hasn't made her sicker, it is so good to see her little girl again. Even with her back to him, she can feel him, Robert's there looking at her. How can Robert still have this effect on her? She took a step back from Robin and handed her the gun, she won't be needing that right now.

"Anna, it's been a while."

When Anna turns to face him all she wants to do is physically hurt him, why did he leave her on her own for all those years? "Yeah, it's been too long." She wants him to feel her pain, the kick in his jaw was just the start. Robert defends himself but that's all, he must realize she has every right to hate him, but that doesn't make Anna feel better she just wants to hit him, again and again, harder and harder. Then there's gunfire and his arms are around her, after all this time he is still her safe place. As mad as she is at him how can this feel so right? If there's danger, he's there for her, they will face it together. She can't let on, he can't know he can still affect her like this. When Anna turns though, she sees it was Robin that had fired the gun and Anna's anger comes right back, and she pushes herself away from Robert. Anna become aware of the other people around her, she's not sure who the younger two are but she knows Luke and Holly are right there. Even though she has never meet Luke before she knows that's him. He exposed Robin to a virus that could have killed her, Luke's not in her good books right now either. Then there's Holly, Anna has no problem being rude to her, they will never be friends and Anna is in no mood to even try to be nice. Anna would be happy to tell all three of them off then hand them over to the authorities but it seems like Robin and Luke's daughter Lulu have different ideas. When Robin requests to talk to both of her parents alone Anna couldn't refuse and is glad when Robert doesn't object other than to worry about some jewels. Just to hurt her a little though, Robin had to suggest that the adventure was more important then she was, at times it may have seemed that way to Robin but that had never true.

While the three of them talked Anna couldn't help but notice how Robert would look at her, he had a little smile every time she looked, there was a hint of happiness in his eyes. Anna wondered if it was anything like she was feeling. As mad as she was at him for faking his death for so long, Anna couldn't help but feel happy, Robert was right here, he really is alive.

Having to face the pain they had cause Robin for all those years was one of the hardest things Anna has had to face since her own return from the dead. At least Robert was right there with her, she still can't fully believe he is standing in the same room. When he brought up Patrick, Anna couldn't believe Robin had found someone so much like her father. If Anna was honest with herself, she knows Robert is not a bad man they had both just made too many mistakes where Robin was concerned, and each other for that matter. When the three of them started talking Anna never would have dreamed the conversation would lead to the heartfelt truths they both shared about their feeling for each other. She knew her feeling had never changed, then to hear him admit that he still felt the same way about her. It didn't matter how mad they might be at each other neither of them would lie to Robin just to hurt the other. Besides Robert is her once in a lifetime love, there's no denying that.

When Robert left the room he grabbed a bottle and went off to find a place to be alone. On the second floor, he found a little room that would do just fine, this could have been a reading room before, there's not much left in it now but at least there was a small couch and a side table. He needed time to get his head straight again before joining the rest of them. From the moment Anna came out of the sky Robert could hardly take his eyes off of her. He had expected her anger and wasn't even all that surprised that she attacked him. Had she felt the same spark he had when they touched? There has never been another woman that affects him like she does. That moment when she was in his arms before she pushed him away, all was right in his world. His feelings had never changed for her in all the time they were apart, he had buried his feeling for her once but he wouldn't do it again. He knows they may never be together again but he will always love her. If he had thought for a moment she wouldn't kick his ass he would have taken her in his arms and tell her how much he still loves her to this day. Although she may have understood that was what he had basically just said before leaving her and Robin in the other room. Robert picked up the bottle and took another big swig, this little game he had been playing with Spencer, competing for Holly's attention it seemed so pointless now. It was just another battle of one-upmanship, as long as Anna was here he knew she would be all he could think about.

When Anna and Robin returned to the others, they noticed Robert wasn't there. Lulu told Robin she saw him head upstairs a while ago with a bottle of wine, he hadn't said much and it looked like he had a lot on his mind. When Dillon came over to join the conversation, Anna quietly slipped away.

Robert had been sitting alone for sometime when there was a knock at the doorway. "Is there enough there to share? I brought a glass," Anna said with a smile as she held up an empty glass.

"I'll share as long as you promise there won't be any drunken brawls later, I'm not sure I'm ready for another round," Robert smiles back. Anna walks over and handed him her glass, then sits down next to him. When he handed the glass back to her he looks her in the eyes, "You have every right to hate me, I would understand if you never want to see or talk to me again. Anna, I need you to know I wanted to come back to you, and I'm sorry I couldn't. You must believe I wanted to, more than anything I wanted to," then he looked away.

Anna didn't say anything she just sipped her drink, of course, he knows how much he's hurt her, but she can see the pain in his eyes as well. She was still angry with him but what does he mean he couldn't? Anna had questions but didn't know if she wanted the answers. So they sat together, neither of them spoke they just sipped their wine. When Anna had finished her glass she finally spoke again. "Why couldn't you?"

Robert refilled her glass then took another sip himself. Robert couldn't look at her but he did start talking. "You once had to make a choice that changed our future, I will never doubt that was the hardest but easiest choice you have ever made. After the explosion, I was pulled out of the ocean and put back together. I had been in a coma for almost 3 months, when I came out of it they told me about your amnesia and your other injuries. You had been in the same hospital that I was in but had been moved about 2 months before. I could barely move at first, there had been multiple fractures in both my legs and one arm. Never mind the internal damage I was recovering from. The WSB told me I was being mended in hopes that I would work for them. I had a choice, if I agreed to work for them once I was healed you would continue getting medical treatment and Robin would be left alone. If I refused they would stop my treatment and if I survived I would be a broken man and I would most likely never be able to fully take care of myself, and they would kill you just in case you were a double agent and your memory came back. As if that wasn't enough they promised to ruin Robin's life as well, they showed me pictures of her, they had been watching her since the explosion. I was more than ready to agree, I would do anything to keep my family safe, but that was when they told me the second part of the deal. What they actually wanted me to do and that I could never tell either of you I was alive." Robert took another long drink then they slipped back into silence.

"Robert they did stop my treatment at some point though. I was living in the wildness in Canada, with a man named Burt," Anna finally said. "I was lost, all alone I had no idea who I was or where I belonged. Burt was a good man and he took care of me but where the hell were you? You should have come and found me."

"Anna I swear to you I wanted to. Eventually, they told me they lost you, but they felt you were safe. They knew about Burt and felt he must have taken you somewhere for your safety, that was all I was told." Robert answered then he looked into her eyes. "I was horrified and wanted to go look for you, but that was the first time they actually threaten Robin's life."

Anna gasped and put her hand over her mouth, "No, not our little girl why would they do that?"

"Yes they would, you were both the way they kept me in line and ensure I kept doing what they wanted. When they still knew where you were, if I started questioning them they would come up with new ways of making it clear they could kill you at any time. The one that always haunted me was a picture of you and someone was holding you up by the hair and had a knife to your throat, they were applying enough pressure so I could see the blood from the cut on your neck, I could see the fear in your eyes. They had quite the collection of gems like that one," Robert said bitterly. "Sometimes it was a gun, sometimes you were tied up. I always believed the person doing that to you was enjoying it."

Anna gasped and touched the scar on her neck wondering what other things had been done to her or how many times they had threatened to kill her. "Oh, Robert."

"I hated what they were making me do Anna. They didn't care about any of us, I was just a weapon and you then Robin were the tools to keep me in line. It killed another little piece of me every time they made me kill someone, but if I stopped I knew they would kill her," Robert paused, "It broke my heart that I couldn't go to Robin when she contracted HIV. I should have been there for her, she should never have had to go through that without one of us there for her." Robert said, not bothering to try to hide his tears. "When I heard that you were in Pine Valley, and Robin had gone to see you it was the happiest I'd been in years. I knew I could never come home or be that man you loved again but at least you and Robin had finally found each other."

Anna wondered what he meant but noticed both her glass and the bottle were empty. She worried he'd leave soon now that the wine is gone. "If I go get another bottle of wine will you still be here when I get back?" Anna knows she has to keep him talking now that he's started or she may never get the answers she now knows she needs from him.

"Yes, as long as it's just you that comes back Anna," he agreed, then he told her where to find it. Anna was the only person that needs to hear what he has to say. She knew him better than anyone else in the world and he could let his guard down with her. He knew if he wanted any chance to make Anna understand he had to tell her the truth, but maybe not all the details, at least not yet. It felt good to talk about this, he needed to get it out, and he wanted to ask her some things of his own.

Anna didn't want anyone to see her so she made her way quietly down the hall. As she got closer to where Robert said she would find more wine she heard Holly's voice. She sighed, of course, the one person in this house she wants nothing to do with. Anna was about to head back empty-handed when Robin calls out to her. "Where did you take off to, and have you seen dad?" Robin asks. "Luke and Holly are in there making jokes about you going off to bury his body."

"If you go grab me a bottle of wine I'll tell you, but don't let them know I'm out here, please." Anna glanced toward to the door of the room the voices were coming from.

Robin looks at her mom wondering what she was up to but does what she asks, and quickly returns with the wine. "Your father is actually in the mood to talk so I need to get back there. We have a lot that needs to be dealt with. There is a lot of pain for both of us. I can tell the things he's telling me he hasn't talked about much before, if at all. Thanks for this and you haven't seen me OK." Anna hugged her then turned and hurried off down the hall. When Anna re-enters the room Robert's head was back and his eyes closed. "Oh Robert, I wasn't done talking to you yet. I might be angry with you but I can see your pain, I feel it too." Then Anna walked over to pick up her glass.

"Good, I wasn't done either," Robert says then opens his eyes, "Not sleeping just resting my eyes, Luv."

Anna smiles and slaps his shoulder as she joins him on the couch again. It was just so easy to be completely at ease with him. "Ok where were we, you knew Robin had found me but did I have my memory back yet?"

Robert was confused again, "Wait, you didn't have it back when you found her?"

"No, I knew about my past but didn't remember it. I knew I had a child, I had the facts and there was a handsome man that would appear in my mind but I couldn't remember anything." Anna looked up expecting to see his cocky little smile at hearing he was on her mind even then, but it wasn't there. "My brother in law went to Paris to talk to Robin, saying he wanted to write an article about me, Robin came looking for him in Pine Valley after that. When I heard her voice I just knew, she came to the door, and I knew who she was as soon as I heard her. I went to the door and called her name, Robert it was so wonderful to see our little girl. Mostly just the memories about Robin came back that day. The worst part was I had to send her away, it was so hard on both of us but I was in danger and I couldn't have Robin getting hurt yet again."

"Anna, I'm sorry that must have been so hard. You stayed in contact with each other right?" he said and took her hand.

"Of course we did," Anna told him. "It was amazing having some memories back. I could actually remember parts of my life. I was sad about what I had missed but happy that I could actually remember holding her as a baby, and then watching her as a little girl that grew into a fine young lady."

"I really thought you had your memory back."

"It was still some time before I got it back completely. Robert what did you mean you aren't the man I loved?" Anna asked.

"If you knew what I have done I don't think you would be sitting here with me, they made me into a monster," Robert says not able to look at her. It was Anna's turn to take his hand, she squeezed it gently. "I was their hired gun, I was nothing to them but a mindless killer. I would be given a target and expected to carry out the mission no questions asked, most of them I was never even told why. You and Robin didn't need that man in your lives. So even when the new regime came in and finally released me from the deal I couldn't come back. Instead, I tried to drown the memories of what I had done in one bottle after another. Then I set out to help other people because I could never be there for the most important people to me, Robert Scorpio was gone."

"No, he wasn't, he was in safe keeping in my mind, even if I didn't know who he was," Anna reached up and touched his face. He was really here with her, it was so good to touch him. "I didn't know who you were but you were always with me."

"Anna that couldn't have been easy either, having some strange man in you heard."

"I didn't know anything about my life before the cabin and Burt, but I knew I must have had one and you were the one connection I had to that life. Flashes of a man that was clearly important to me, at first it was so quick I wasn't sure what was happening. Once Alex found me, I have a twin by the way, but I think that's a story for another night," Anna told him with a smile. "The more I learned about my life, the longer you stuck around. We looked into my life, and I saw a picture of you and was finally able to put a name to the face."

"I let you down as a husband, once I walked out on you and the second time I failed to save you. You should never have had to go through any of that by yourself." Then Robert dropped his head into his hands.

"It sounds like you did save me, Robert. Would I be here if you hadn't done what they made you do?"

"No, they would have killed you," Robert admitted.

"Besides it was your letter to Robin that brought it all back," Anna told him.

Robert looked up not understanding, "What do you mean?"

"You left Robin a letter when you came after me, she sent it to me and told me to read it when I was ready. Robin had read it many times over the years. It took me some time to get the courage to open it, but when I finally did I could hear your voice for the first time, then the memories came, everything, your love was the key. I had been hoping that if I had survived the explosion I'd read about then maybe you had too and were out there somewhere, but when I remembered it I was sure you had been killed." Robert wiped the tears from her eyes as she finished talking. "I remembered who I was, what Anna Devane was really like. Robert, I didn't miss you until I remembered you, then I was heartbroken."

"Every word in that letter was the truth and came from my heart. Please don't hate me for saying this, but I still love you, Anna. I've never stopped, not for a minute."

"I would have to hate myself a well because I still love you too." They took each other in their arms and just held each other. Anna has no idea what this meant but she's happy that Robert's alive. Anna was a little surprised when she realizes she would take him however she can get him, as long as he is a part of her life again.

When they finally make their way back to the other's Anna notices Robin watching them as they entered the room. As soon as Robert went over to talk to Luke Robin made her way over to Anna to find out what they had been talking about all this time. When she got close to her mom, Anna leaned in close so just Robin would hear, "I'll tell you what we were talking about but not here OK, it can wait a little while."

Robin looked over at her father then back at Anna, they both looked a little raw from their conversation, whatever they had been talking about was important to them both. When she looked back at Robert she noticed it looked like a weight had been lifted from him. "It looks like you both needed that talk, whatever it was about," Robin said then smiles at her mom.

"Let's just say I understand, he explained a little of why he stayed away, and please don't hate him for it," Anna said hoping Robin would let it go for now at least. "Once we can talk I hope you'll understand as well."

Even while Robert talked to Luke he kept looking over at Anna, she was really here. They had talked about a little of what they needed to, he hoped she would continue talking to him. She knows he's alive and she didn't kill him when she found him, so there is hope of making her understand, maybe he could have her back in his life.

Holly noticed the change in Robert after they had returned. What is it about Anna Devane that has always captivated Robert? Even when they were married Anna had a connection to him, that was more than their daughter. Holly didn't care for the fact the attention wasn't all on her now. "So you two vanish for a couple hours and you're right back under her spell?" Holly hissed with bitterness. "That's what I was talking about young Dillon, she's already got him wrapped around her little finger."

"What's your problem, Holly? Anna and I needed to talk. There was a massive explosion the last time we saw each other and there were things that we both needed to say."

"An explosion, really? It sounds dangerous to be around the two of you," Dillon joked.

"Oh like you begging her to take you back?" Holly shot back at Robert.

"Dillon it's nothing to joke about, that explosion took my parents away from me," Robin told him.

"Robert that woman walks in and suddenly she's all that matters, you're putty in her hands," Holly accused him.

"What's the matter Holly, don't you like sharing the attention?" Anna asked smugly.

"I certainly didn't like sharing my husband!" Holly stated. Everyone was suddenly captivated by this heated exchange.

"Yeah but he was my husband first, and we had unfinished business to deal with then as well." Anna wasn't going to back down.

"Like the fact you were still in love with him and wanted to steal him back!" Holly accused.

"Like the fact I needed him to know the truth about why I had to do what I had done," Anna wasn't going to let Holly talk to her like this.

"Yeah that you'd lied to him."

"I saved his life!" Anna shot back. Holly rolled her eyes, she still didn't believe any of that. "That he had a daughter."

"That you hid from him."

"Stop talking about things you will never understand. Would it have been better for you if I'd been killed in that first explosion, that I died before I even knew I was pregnant? Then when your white knight married you to keep his best friend's pregnant girlfriend from being deported, his past would have never mattered."

Holly was shocked, "We did love each other, you bitch."

"Eventually, I was always Robert's perfect woman. We've loved each other from the start."

Holly was gobsmacked, she was right Robert had picked Anna over her. When he found out she was alive and they were still technically married he served her with divorce papers and went after Anna.

"What's the matter Holly, can't handle the truth?" Anna was in no mood to take Holly's crap.

Robin could see this was going to get out of hand, "OK, that's enough. We should talk about something else, like how are we going to get out of here," she suggests, anything to stop these two and to get the attention off of her parents.

Anna looked at Robin, then moved closer to her again, maybe this wasn't the time for this fight. "You're right I don't need to waste my time on this hussy," Anna said to Robin.

Holly seemed like she was ready to keep arguing now, she had recovered from Anna's last sting, but Luke lead her away from the situation. If Anna could take down Robert she'd break Holly in a heartbeat. "It's not worth dying over English," He said as they walked away.

Robert had wisely stayed quiet through it all. Dillon and Lulu watched the entire scene in a state of shock. Neither of them knew exactly what had just happened, but understood Robin had stopped her mother from tearing Holly apart.

As everyone started to wander away Robert moved closer to Anna. "It's been a while since two women have fought over me. You clearly won, so now you can do whatever you want with me." Robert said, that cocky little smile of his now shining back at Anna.

"You shush, she just doesn't know when to stay quiet," Anna told him, quickly hiding the smile he's comment had caused. Was he actually flirting with her and did she actually like it? She had caught him watching her with a smile on his face a couple time. She's not the only one feeling that attraction between them.

"Anna you're right about my perfect woman," he whispered so just Anna would hear. He saw her cheeks flush then walked towards Robin. As much as he wanted to turn up the charm, maybe get her alone again he knew he shouldn't push his luck. Being around her again all he wanted to do was make her understand and have her forgive him. To hold her, caress her, he longed to be close to her.

...

On her flight back to Port Charles Robin took time to think about everything that had happened. While her parents had talked Anna seem to have found a way to understand and accept what had kept them apart. Robert had seemed a little more at ease as well, Robin knew he has been putting on a strong front and that he was dealing with some things he wouldn't let on to. Robin realized she had found herself smiling a lot watching her parents the rest of the time they were together. Just the fact that her mother was there, made it seem like when she was young and this was yet another adventure. Anna was mostly being nice to Robert and had even joined in on the little game of trying to one-up each other for the bag of jewels. Robert and Luke had found them in the old safe, but since then they had all been trying to get them for themselves. Then there was Robert, who kept watching Anna. Robin had noticed him several times looking at Anna with a little smile on his face. They had seemed pretty cozy when they all woken up this morning as well. Is it possible after all these years that they can just slip back into the way it always was between them? There was always an unspoken bond there and it had seemed like they had both found some peace just knowing the other one was in the room.

Her parents are both back in her life now and even though her mother had clearly gone there to hurt her father for abandoning them for all those years, they now seem to be getting along, mostly. Robin still didn't understand it though, hopefully, it wouldn't be that long before Anna would tell her what they had talked about. Her mother was still hurt by what her father had done but if Anna could let go of some of that anger after having a heart to heart with him, maybe she should try that too. Anna had told her to let him be a part of her life and once they're back in Port Charles she will make sure to make the effort to let that happen. He was still her father and she still loved him. Robin had lost to much time with both her parents not to give him the chance to prove he really wants to be a part of her life again.
