Robbe's phone is ringing. Yesterday evening he and Sander agreed that Sander would call him. He hasn't heard Sander since then so far, till now.

'Hey, Sander, how are you? How is everything over there?' Robbe asks.

'Hi, Robbie,' Sander says. 'You look very good again,' Sander smiles.

'You too, as always. Sexy Sander. But Robbie?' Robbe asks confused.

'Yes, that's my pet name for you. Robbetje sounds weird, Robbie sounds cute,' Sander explains.

'What is that good for?'

'Don't you think it's nice?' Sander asks. 'We don't have a pet name for each other so far. We're still using each other's name, but we're a couple. We really should think about a pet name for each other. And not just honey, that's boring.'

'Okay, I will think about it,' Robbe says. 'But I think that will have to go automatically. One day I'll accidentally find one. But how is everything over there? How is your father?' Robbe is worried, because when Sander ignores a question mostly he doesn't feel good or he doesn't want to talk about it.

'My father is calm so far. He's behaving. But I don't trust him. One day he will explode again, I'm sure about that. Now I'm in my room all days, using my January exams as an excuse, saying I have to study. But I'm afraid for my mother and my sister.'

'Is there nothing you can do?' Robbe asks.

'No, it's my mother's house. She lets in whoever she wants.'

'You can come live with me if you want to,' Robbe says. 'I should ask my parents first but if I explain your situation they won't make a problem about it.'

'That's very kind, Robbie, very sweet, but I can't go away here. Certainly not now. I want to be here to protect my mother and my sister when it's necessary.'

'Can we see each other? Today or another day,' Robbe asks.

'I'm afraid not,' Sander answers. 'My father doesn't know about us yet and I'm sure he would make a problem about it. He's very conservative and I want to avoid problems during my exams.'

'Okay, I understand. But if you need me, just ask me.'

'I will do,' Sander says. 'We can call or video call, like now, and send text messages but we can't see each other for a few days. I will let you know when it's possible again.'

'Okay,' Robbe says, sounding very sad.

'Don't be sad, we'll be together again soon enough. Before you know it you're in my arms again.'

Robbe smiles a bit. 'I love you,' he says.

'I love you too,' Sander replies. 'Forever. I have to go now.' Sander ends the video call.
