THE WHOLE TRUTHTHE GREY MANSION, 6PM, THE NEXT DAY."I told you, you shouldn't have worn the dress and heels, you're obviously uncomfortable in them," Andrew said as he and Robin got down from his car in his father's garage.Andrew had finally decided to visit his parents and listen to their side of the story, just for Robin's sake alone.Though he had told her to wear whatever she was comfortable in, she decided to wear something lady like to impress his parents.Her dress was something she borrowed from Clara, a purple, mid length, halter necked dress with sequins at the chest area which she paired with a black purse and matching stilettos.Andrew was totally unable to understand her need to portray an image that was not hers to his parents. Fine Robin liked wearing jeans and T-shirts, but he was totally okay with that, so what was the need to pretend like she liked dresses in front of his parents?"Come on Andrew, don't tell me I don't look good in them," Robin asked with a grave

THE WHOLE STORY PT 2THE GREY MANSION, 8PM."You're still as impatient as I can remember, Andy. Your grandparents were very much against our union and wanted me to have an abortion. They threatened me severally till the point where your father finally cut all ties with them and decided to get married to me without their permission. It was a big thing indeed, I was very moved by that decision of his, though I wouldn't have wanted us coming together to mean that he had to lose his family and their powerful name. When you were born and they found out we had a boy, they contacted your dad and pleaded with him and finally we reconciled with them.""After your first birthday, we wanted another child, but the pregnancy just wasn't coming forth. We went for several fertility tests and all, but it was still the same. After trying artificial insemination twice, which all failed, we finally gave up and just decided to settle with never having anymore kids. Then like a miracle when you were six,

HURTING PT 1.THE GREY MANSION, 9PM"Let me answer that, when I left your father, it took a lot of courage to do it. I was convinced that he wascheating on me because I felt that his past playboy lifestyle was something he must have missed. He had been so occupied with work, he was keeping late nights and most times out of the country. I figured that was the reason for his change in attitude and probably he wanted a woman who could give him more children. It's common knowledge that many powerful and influential men like himself, get trapped in the web of manipulating females, who chase after them regardless of their marital status. When I went to London, I changed my writing name to Freya Rain and continued writing children's story books without my picture displayed on the books. I didn't want to be found by your dad, especially after he accused me of infidelity and bringing another man's child into his house." Christina said with a sob.Even after many years, it was still very painf

HURTING PT 2ANDREW'S SECRET BASE, 10PM."If you keep bringing me to your secret place, then it's not secret anymore, don't you think?" Robin forced a laugh to lighten Andrew's mood.When Robin asked him to bring her to the one place where he felt at peace, he had no opposition to it. He just couldn't endure her tears and was going to deal with whoever made her cry, even if it was his parents.Taking a crate of beer from the fridge, Andrew opened a bottle of beer and took a big gulp from it, before sitting on the sofa in the living room."You asked me to bring you here, didn't you? Now tell me what happened," Andrew asked after five minutes, when they were cozied up together on the sofa.Sitting up from where she lay on his lap, Robin answered, "Your dad asked about my parents and it brought back memories that were just too painful for me to deal with. He wasn't at fault, he didn't know I had lost my parents already. That's your fourth beer babe, you shouldn't drink so much," She repr

SOMETHING'S GREEN PT 1DAYS LATER...1 DAY TO THE REGIONALS."Okay guys, I believe everyone has loaded their luggage into the bus, we'll be moving soon, but before we leave for The Gaming City, I want to let you guys know something," Andrew said in his deep commanding voice to the gamers from The Braves Club, selected for The Regional Gaming Competition.Harry, Matt, Stanley, Rita, Robin and Sandy were selected by Mr Roberts and Andrew as the executives in charge of the trip. Andrew looked at the team he had set up with a proud smile. The past few days had been very hectic indeed for The Braves, with their latest games not reaching the required number of downloads to qualify them for the round of sixteen teams in the competition.Eventually though, three days to the competition after almost giving up when they still had to get five hundred more downloads to qualify, they were finally able to pass the required points by a hundred more downloads.Andrew had felt so proud when Rita gave

SOMETHING'S GREEN PT 2THE BRAVES LUXURY BUS, 8AM."So you didn't know that? Anyways not everyone knew, they got together after Andrew broke up with Jenna last year. They lasted only two weeks, before he called it off with her. Apparently he had all the fun he wanted from Rita and switched them back to boss and employee mode. I really feel sorry for Rita, I mean she has to deal with seeing Drew with you now. I'm sure she would have liked to resign, but decided to settle for at least being around him and getting to see his face on a daily basis," Harry added, inwardly smirking at how shocked Robin looked.Robin sat beside him frozen for a moment as she wasn't able to comprehend what she just heard."Robin, come join us for a game of cards. I know how much you love it," Clara called from her seat."Thanks, but I'll pass. I have to talk to Harry about some details as regards the competition. You guys have fun," she said referring to Andrew's friends and the other Bravers who were playing

SOMETHING'S GREEN PT 3THE GREY HOTEL AND SUITES, 10AM."This is your suite, why exactly did you bring me here?" Robin asked with her hands crossed below her bosom which brought Andrew's eye to her ample chest.Seeing the lustful look in his eyes as his eyes came down to her breasts, Robin asked, "Why are you looking at me that way?""What way? You've got a fantastic body by the way, it's only natural for your boyfriend to look at it. Forget that, I wanted to show you something. I got you necklace. Turn around and let me put it on for you," he smiled and turned her around to face the mirror, before clasping the necklace around her neck, a diamond studded necklace with a half heart engraved on it."This must have cost a lot, I can't take this from you. You don't have to give me these sort of things, I'm not like Jenna or Jenny or even your previous girlfriends," Robin tried to unclasp the chain with no success until Andrew unclasped it for her."No way, I bought this for you, what brin

SOMETHING'S GREEN PT 4ANDREW'S SUITE, 10:20AM."We dated for a while last session, it wasn't serious, okay? That's not good enough reason for you to be so upset. Who told you about it?" Andrew raked his fingers through his hair."Who told me about it? Is that the question you should be asking? I want to know why you didn't care to tell me that Rita, who works closely with you at the club, was once your lover. I'm sure you guys slept together, right? You call that not serious? That's the issue with you, you have never taken any of your past relationships seriously. Those girls were all toys that you played with and threw away when you were tired of them! What's the guarantee that you would not do the same with me?" Robin raised her voice."I would have asked you to lower your volume, you know how much I hate noise, but then, noone would hear us since this room is sound- proof. You are being hysterical, I admit that I wasn't serious with relationships before, but if I was, then I would
