𝗦𝘄𝗲𝗲𝘁 𝗽𝗲𝗮 | a Robby keen story

Chapter 5

"Mom... where's dad?" "He he left." My mom said in between sobs. "What do you mean he left? Like on a Business trip or for a meeting be more specific." I said "HE LEFT AND HES NOT COMING BACK
AND YOU KNOW WHAT ITS YOU AND YOUR BROTHERS FAULT! MABYE IF YOU TRIED HARDER IN SCHOOL AND AFTER SCHOOL CLUBS AND MABYE IF YOUR BROTHER DIDNT LEAVE HE WOULD STILL BE HERE!" "IF YOU BOTH TRIED HARDER HE WOULDNT HAVE LEFT!"  She yelled. "mom.." "YOU KNOW WHAT JUST GO TO YOUR ROOM I DONT WANT TO TALK TO A DAUGHTER LIKE YOU!" I felt tears start to form in my eyes and I ran up to my room. My phone started to buzz. I didn't want to talk to anyone right now. But I looked at it anyway it was a missed call from Robby and he left a voicemail. It said.

"Hey I had a lot of fun today and I hope I can see you again. I also just got a job too. Actually it's at LaRusso auto. Witch i do remember being somewhat close to your house. If you need anything text me or you can come to my house my mom would love to see you. I live in an apartment room 4B on the third floor of the passion apartment off of 47. come by anytime bc I kinda dropped out... anyway bye"

I don't know why but this voice mail made me smile and I really needed that. I grabbed a change of clothes blew my nose and wiped my tears. I called him back.

Robby: hey
Lila: hi there
R: what's up
L: nothing much I was just wondering if that offer still stands.
R: of course why.
L: because i I just need someone to talk too.
R: okay well you can come over now if you want
L: really
R: yeah of course
L: ok thanks
R: see you in a few
L: bye

I ended the call and I grabbed my stuff. I didn't really want to walk by my mom again so I snuck out of my window. I got in my car and drove away. As fast as I could but not too fast that I wouldnt get a ticket. I finally got to the apartment and knocked on the door. A tired looking Robby opened the door. "Hey" he said in a tired morning voice. "Hey back" I said I guess he could tell i had been crying because he rushed to get me in the small shoe box apartment room. He sat me down on the couch and asked me if I was ok. I said yes and then he gave me "the look" you know the look that people give you when your lying. "Okay no I'm not." And then that's when I broke down. I told him everything and I mean EVERYTHING. When I was done I was sobbing so hard. I could tell that Robby wasn't good at this but he pulled me in to a tight hug. I thought it was gonna be the normal "ssh ssh it's gonna be okay" act but it wasn't. He said "I can't tell you that it's gonna get better because I don't know if it will. It hasn't for me yet. But I can promise you that I have you back through it all and I'm here for you when ever you need it." While cupping my checks wiping my tears. After he said that he pulled me back in for another hug. After he did that I finally realized in that moment that that's what I needed. Not someone who actes like that care about my sob story. Not someone who says it's gonna be "Okay" and not mean it. I needed someone to tell me the truth. Like Robby did. He finally let me go and I don't know what came over me but all of a sudden I leaned in and kissed him. As soon as I realized I pulled away and apologized. "I'm so sorry I don't know what I was thinkin-" he stoped me mid sentence by pressing his lips against mine. I finally just sunk into. We did this for about 2 minutes before we fell asleep On the couch
