Chapter 17

The next couple of months. Robin was enjoying her social life to the fullest. Every Thursday she would hang out in the clubs with her friends. Sometimes she spent the night at the dorm with Kitana and Aloira. They were inseparable. There were times when Amon would walk in his penthouse and all three were sprawled out in their nighties watching TV together. One night when they all slept over his beach house, the storm was so bad. The girls all crept into his room and slept with him. He really didn't mind at all that much. Sakaki and the guys always marveled how lucky Amon was. The three were all very beautiful and young. On one occasion, Sakaki, Nagira and Amon stopped into his penthouse before going out on a business dinner and the girls were outside in his Jacuzzi naked. Sakaki and Nagira was amused but Amon shook his head at Robin. They all blew kisses at Amon and told Amon to join them. Nagira and Sakaki wanted to get closer to get a view but Amon kept them at bay. Kitana and Aloira were nice girls but a little bit on the wild side. He hardly has anytime alone with Robin. That was what his main complaint and argument is usually with Robin. He treated all three girls out to movies, concerts, and any event they so desired. Robin would once in a while throw some pretty wild parties in his estate. He felt like his control on Robin was slipping. He made a mental note that he will have to take it back.

It was Friday night and he told Robin that he would pick her up from her house so they can watch a movie. Robin promise that it would only be her this time. Amon was excited to get some time with Robin. He drove up in his new Black Bugati since Robin had been driving his Ferrari around.

He notice that she was not around. Amon went and rang the door bell and Father Juliano opened the door. He smiled instantly when he saw Amon.

"Hello Amon,, come in"

"Father, How have you been feeling" Amon had asked him

"Oh you know, there are times I feel very weak and other times I am perfectly fine"

"Is Robin around" He inquired

Father Juliano frowned "She said that she is going to some festival at the School"

"Really, we had a date tonight" Amon manage to say without hinting the anger that he was feeling Amon bid his farewell and went in his car. He took his cell phone to check his message. It wasn't like Robin to just go out without telling him and not even leave him a message. He was getting angrier by the minute. He wanted so much to call her and scream at her but he was too pissed off. He went to the bar and started drinking. Nagira and the gang were there. Nagira noticed that Amon was in a very fowl mood.

"Little Bro, What's up" Nagira asked

"Where is little birdie" Amon didn't answer him

"Amon, where is Robin" Nagira asked again

Amon turned around angry "How the FUCK do I know" "As far as I am concerned, we are over"

Nagira raised an eyebrow. He wondered what Robin could have done to get Amon this way.

"Right, Okay then" Nagira turned around to face Miho.

Amon went back to the penthouse very drunk and fell asleep on the sofa.

Robin was enjoying the festival when it dawn on her that she had completely forgotten she was suppose to meet Amon. She checked her watch and saw it was nearing midnight. She shouted to Kitana and Aloira amidst the blaring music of a band playing that she was going to leave. Kitana and Aloira had nodded. Robin drove to Amon's penthouse. She checked her cell to see for any messages and had none. Maybe Amon forgot that they had a date or she thought .......He is very pissed off. Her and Amon had been getting into many arguments lately. She loved Amon, but she wanted to have fun and Amon didn't understand that. Her two best friends always manages to convince her to do things that both her grandfather and Amon would look down upon. Robin walked to Amon's penthouse. She saw that he had fallen asleep in the sofa. She didn't want to wake him up so she went to her room. She took her shower and went to bed.

That morning she went down to the kitchen and saw Amon not there. She check his room and he was not around. She started to cook breakfast when she heard the door open. She looked up and saw him. "hey," she smiled at him

She saw his gloomy appearance and knew that he was mad.

"What time did you final decide to come by Robin" He asked her

"Midnight, you were asleep on the sofa and I didn't want to wake you" she explained

"Robin, We had a date last night" "I don't ask a lot from you" "All I asked is, to spare some time for me so we can be together" "I feel that I am not important to you" He told her

"I completely forgot to call you" "I'm sorry" she offered

"you know Robin, I am getting tired of this I'm sorry crap" "Who is more important to you, me or your girlfriends" He started to yell at her

Robin didn't answer right away. Amon was flustering her and she started feeling confused. "Amon, to an extent you are very important to me but" she stopped

Amon came up to her "If I asked you to choose, who would it be" he asked her coldly

"I would never make that kind of decision, Amon" "You have to understand that would be an unreasonable request" She told him calmly.

"No I don't understand Robin" "I am sick and tired of being second to your friends" He fumed at her "I will make the decision for you" He told her "I will not be second to anyone, until you realize this" "I'm afraid we can't be together anymore" He told her coldly.

Amon's inside was exploding with each word to Robin. He was determined not to falter with his coldness. He will not give in this time. Robin started to shake her head. She didn't want to believe any of the words that is coming out of Amon's mouth. How can he just be so cold to her she thought. She ran up to him and tried to give him a hug but Amon held her away.

"No, Robin" "I decided already that it is over" "You need your freedom to explore the life you think your missing out in" "I can't compete with that thirst for life" "I was young once and I had refused to tie myself down" "I understand completely that I can't be part of your world anymore"

He turned around and went to his windowsill. He was ready to crumble when he saw Robin's hurt expression.

"Why are you hurting me like this" she told him "You told me that you would never hurt me"

"I lied "he told her in a monotone level. He kept all emotions out of voice like he was talking to a business partner.

"Robin, you can still work for the company and I will provide you with extra monetary allowance on the side" "You can have the Ferrari" "You don't need to worry, I will keep my promise to your Grandfather to take care of you" "Feel free to ask me for things" "But I will not spend any more of my personal time with you since you can't provide the time anyway."

Robin's eyes were filled with tears. Every word Amon had spit out was hitting her like a stab in her heart. "Robin, I am leaving for the weekend. You can start packing your belongings this weekend. Just leave the set of keys on the table when you leave. Amon left out the door without even taking one look at her.

Robin broke down and cried. She was crying for a good 2 hours and fell fast asleep on the sofa. She woke and thought she had dreamt it all. Was this a nightmare she thought. Deep down she knew it wasn't. Robin never felt this sort of lost before. She physically felt the heaviness in her heart. She finally stepped over the boundary with Amon's patience. She didn't bother packing her stuff. She took her keys and left them on the table. She headed for her house. Father Juliano noticed her dis-sheveled appearance.

"Robin, what wrong" He asked her

Robin didn't want to tell him, He loved Amon and it was her fault that they were no longer together. "Oh, I was up all last night watching TV" She lied. A habit she was growing accustomed to

"Well get some rest, you don't look well" He kissed her forehead
