The Return of Write Your Own Lincoln Heights Episode - Page 16
Eddie was looking for Charles then he suddenly found Charles at a liquor store. Charles bought a six pack of beer. He sat by the sidewalk and started drinking until Eddie stopped him.
"You always think this is the answer to everything?" asked Eddie as he took the can of beer away from Charles.
"It makes me feel better." said Charles as he snatched it back.
"Charles watch it!!! I'm this close to feeling sorry for you." said Eddie.
"Now you know what Robin really like." said Charles.
"Charles it's not even liked that. Robin is not that kind of a person." said Eddie.
"I figured. Everyone wants to defends Robin as usual." said Charles.
"Charles I overheard the conservation with Jenn, Dana, & your mother. I also had a talk with Robin. Charles it was a big misunderstanding." said Eddie.
"How would you know?" asked Charles.
"Because I know my daughter. And my daughter would never lied to me or her mother's face." said Eddie.
"Sigh." said Charles.
"I think you whole Cassie a big apology." said Eddie.
"With all do respect sir I getting pretty tired of apolgizing." said Charles.
"Alright have it your way. But I think you jumped to wrong conclusion and so did I so I'm going back and talk to my daughter and admit I was wrong. That is what being a man is all about Charles. Oh and one more thing just so that we are clear if you ever decide to lose your temper and get phyiscal with my daughter again I won't press charges I will seriously kill you and that's a promise. Do I make myself clear?" warned Eddie.
"Yes sir." muttered Charles.

Eddie started to walk away from Charles and back to his car. Before he got in he took one more look at Charles, hoping that Charles would get up and go to his car and return home as well. But Charles continued sitting on the side of the curb with his can of beer.
Eddie just shook his head, annoyed, and got in his car and left.
While Charles sat, contemplating, a beautiful, blonde, young woman, around Cassie's age or younger, walked up to him and sat down right next to him. Charles looked shocked and was speechless.
"Mind if we share that?" she asked, pointing to his beer.
"Wh--what?" he asked, tongue-tied.
"Look, dude, I just got out of Rehab, and it didn't work. I've got no I.D. on me and nobody's gonna sell me alcohol. And I could REALLY use a drink," she said, sounding desperate.
Charles managed to come to his senses and speak. "Nah.....I don't think so. Believe me, I've been there and I shouldn't be drinking this myself," he confessed as he poured the remainder of his beer out on the ground.
"Dude! What'd you DO???" she yelled at him for wasting the beer.
Charles chuckled, got up and brushed himself off. "You'll thank me in the morning," he said sarcastically as he started to walk away.
"Where you going?" she called to him. "Stay and hang out with me, at least," she suggested. "I'm new around here."
Charles stopped and thought about her suggestion. As beautiful as she was, it wasn't hard for him to decide to hang out with her.
"Tell you what -- I'll take you for a ride and show you around," he offered, smiling.
She jumped up from the side of the curb and brushed off her jeans, smiling too. "Cool!" she said as she ran to join him.
"I'm Charles Antoni," he told her as he looked her up and down.
"Nice to meet you, Charles Antoni!" she giggled. "My name is Giselle."
Candygwen
"come on lets ride" said charles smiling and grabing his keys
"sure show me your side of l.a." Giselle said checking charles out
"maybe my friends were right, i do need a break from cassie" thought charles as he threw the promise ring on the ground
meanwhile robin spoted charles the newgirl driving down the street
"Charles......charles who are you with man"screamed robin
"damn he cant hear me, i better follow them amd see where there going"he said out loud
americana876
Robin saw the promise ring on the ground.
"Oh no I hope he's not doing what I think he's doing. Now I know I better follow him and talked since into him before he makes a foolish a mistakes." said Robin to himself.
So Robin continued to follow them. They stopped at a bar to gets some drinks.
"So Charles tell me about yourself." said Griselle.
Batman642
Charles smiled a little. "I'd really rather talk about you, Giselle. That's a beautiful name, and you're a BEAUTIFUL girl," he complimented her.
Giselle blushed a little. "Thank you. It's a French name," she explained.
"Are you French?" he asked, curious.
"There's some French in my bloodline," she replied.
"I'm Italian," Charles said proudly.
"Yeah, Antoni sounds VERY Italian," she remarked. "Are you in the mob?" she teased.
"Hey! You never know...." he kidded her back. "So, Giselle," he said in a more serious tone, "you said you're new around here?"
"Yes, I'm from back East and I was into modeling and......it didn't work out. Too much pressure. So I started drinking and drugging and wound up in Rehab. While I was in Rehab, my parents got killed in a car accident so now I'm living with my Uncle Billy--which is why I'm out here in California."
"I can see why you'd be into modeling--you're absolutely gorgeous...." he said softly as he leaned closer to her.
Giselle giggled. "Oh Charles! You could be a model yourself, you know. You should go for it," she encouraged him.
"Nah.....I'm into designing cars," he explained.
Charles cell phone started ringing and when he saw that it was Cassie calling he ignored the call.
"Avoiding someone?" Giselle asked, curious.
Charles frowned. "Yeah."
Candygwen
"yeah, i am lets not worry about it"said charles
"ok anything you say, i heard italian guys are bad is that true, she said while flerting with him
"its for me to know and you to find out, where are you from back east?"asked charles
"new york, long island.....i miss it out theere sometimes it seems to be way different out here"said giselle
"yeah the hights is way different but its simular to the bronx"said charles
meanwhile robin was walkin ginto the bar.......
americana876
"I be right back Chucky baby I'm gonna powder my nose." said Giselle.
"Take your time." said Charles.
Robin finally spotted Charles. Robin went to talk to Charles.
"Well well well look what the cat dragged in. You came here to preach that I shouldn't hit m sorrows again?" asked Charles sarcasticly.
"Charles come on man, I'm not here for that. What are you doing here and who are you with?" asked Robin.
"Why so you take her away from me as well. You can forget it she mine. You got Cassie so you won." said Charles.
"Charles look for the last time nothing happened between me and Cassie. Why are you being so stubborn about it?" frustrated Robin.
"Hey I'm doing Cassie a favor she is free as a bird. I'm going to do me. She all yours dude." said Charles.
"What are you crazy?" asked Robin.
"Look I tried to make Cassie happy but nothing I do satisfy her. It's always her or no way at all." said Charles.
"Dude are you listening to yourself right now? Cassie loves you man. She needs you those twins needs you. And you going throw all away over some misunderstanding." said Robin.
"Look Robin just stay out of it alright. Like I said before I'm going to do me." said Charles.
"You're going to have sex with yourself?" asked Robin.
"No smartass!!! I doing things my way and being me." said Charles.
"You know you are impossible. You're doing all this to get back at Cassie. You really don't like that girl you just using her." said Robin.
"Hey she appreciate a real man." said Charles.
"Well you bettertell her about Cassie before she discover the truth." said RObin.
Then Giselle returned to the table.
"Charles I'm back...Hey Robin funny meeting you here." surprised Charles.
"Giselle?!? What are you doing here?" shocked Robin.
"I'm on a cool date with Charles? How is Cassie doing? I'm dying to meet her kids and her wonderful boyfriend of hers. Since you two told about them so much When will I get to meet her boyfriend?' asked Giselle.
"Well look no further you're sitting next to him." said RObin.
"What?!?!?" shocked Giselle.
Batman642
"charles is that true, you know cassie?"she asked with a speechless look on her face
"nope its not i dont even know the girl"said charles lieing
"robin we have to go, giselle its too crowed in here if you ask me"said charles grabing her by the hand as the two left
"robin i dont know what to say but catch ya later"she said leaving
americana876
[fyi everyone her name is giselle not griselle. it's pronounced jizelle]
When they got in the car, Giselle wanted to know where they were going next, so Charles decided to drive her out to the beach house.
"But it's getting dark," she told him.
"The beach is beautiful at night. And anyway, I haven't seen the condition of my beach house since the quake. I might want to spend the night there."
"Spend the night??? I didn't say anything about spending the night with you!" she objected.
"No, I don't mean you and me. I mean ME. I'm..........AVOIDING someone, and I think I might want to sleep at the beach house tonight--if it's not too messed up. But don't worry, Giselle, I'll see that you get home. You can trust me," he said with a smile.
"Wellllllllllllllllllll.....okay! Take me to your beachouse then!" she said, excitedly.
While Charles and Giselle were on their way to the beach, Robin had a beer back at the bar and then decided enough was enough and he needed to take care of his own life. So he left and started walking back home to Monica's house.
Candygwen
"mom you were right about cassie and all of her drama"said robin as he sat on his counch
"really son, no why do you say that what happened this time"asked monica finally not surprized
"i dont really wanna talk about it, but cassie deserves better, than charles and i think he finally left her"said robin heading to the kitchen
meanwhile cassie was getting used to handleing the twins without charles and was thinking of moving with her family to jenn's parents house
"mom can we talk for a sec??"asked cassie
"sure hon, help me with dinner"asked jenn
"mom i wanna get outta here, and move to our grandparents house...charles can take the twins and his mom too for the week end or half the week"said cassie
"i too think its a good idea to go to my parents house..we have outdown our welcome honey......now its just a matter of telling your father"said jenn
americana876
Eddie came in on the end of their conversation. "Did I hear you say something about me?" he asked as he looked into the refrigerator.
Cassie and Jenn looked at each other behind his back and nodded at one another.
"Yes, Eddie, as a matter of fact you did. Cassie and I want to tell you something," Jenn began.
Eddie closed the refrigerator door and looked nervous. "This sounds serious. Please don't let either of you be pregnant."
Jenn looked at him sideways. "Eddie! You've really got a one-track mind, you know?"
Eddie sat down at the table and looked up at them both. "I can't help it. But, since it's not a pregnancy, what's up?" he asked more relieved.
"While our house is being repaired, we'd like to leave Marla's and go to San Diego to visit with my parents," Jenn told him.
"I don't know, Jenn. You know your Dad and I don't see eye to eye AT ALL. I never feel welcomed when I go there," Eddie complained.
"Well, Dad, what if me and mom go for a visit with the twins? And you can stay here," Cassie suggested.
"Me? Stay here? With Marla? That wouldn't look right, Cassie. I don't know if Marla would be able to resist all of this," he boasted as he flexed his muscles.
"And don't forget about Dana," Jenn reminded them both, as she squeezed one of his muscles.
"Oh PLEASE Dad! I really need a change of scenery right about now--you know--with Charles being mad at me and all..."
"Yeah," Eddie sighed, "I feel for you, Cassie," he said as he started to come around.
"And it wouldn't have to be for long, Dad. Just till the house gets fixed up."
"That's just it, though. I wanted to fix the house up some myself with Pops and Nate and Tay -- and Charles," he explained a little disappointed.
"Well then, if you don't want to stay here without us, then you could stay with Granddad and Vera," Cassie suggested.
"Lemme think about it," Eddie told them both. "I'll let you know what I've decided."
"Thanks Dad!" Cassie said hugging him, smiling, trying to win him over.
"Thanks? I didn't say yes yet!" he reminded her.
Cassie crossed her fingers and continued smiling at him.
Candygwen
Cassie called Robin and told him about the news.
"That is great news but we it sorta far away." said Robin.
"Robin it's not that far besides I want to hang out with you without any problems." said Cassie.
"What about Charles?" asked Robin.
"I don't know about him anymore. I just need to get away from him for awhile." said Cassie.
"Well atleast you to have something in common." said Robin.
"What do you mean by that?" asked Cassie.
"Nevermind." said Robin as he refuse to tell Cassie about Charles & Giselle.
"So are you going to visit me over there?" asked Cassie.
"Well I can't tomorrow because I supposed to be to do something with mom tomorrow. It still my week off and I need to spend time with her." said RObin.
"I understand." said Cassie.
Batman642
Meanwhile, Charles and Giselle have arrived at the beach house and go inside.
"Wow! It's a big mess, but I can tell that it used to be beautiful!" Giselle said amazed as she spun around in the room like a lititle girl in Disneyland.
"Yeah. My mom gave it to us as a wed--" then Charles stopped, not wanting to reveal too much about himself or Cassie.
"What did you say?" she asked, not really paying attention.
"Nothing. I'm glad you like it. Let me show you where the jacuzzi is," he offered, leading her to it.
"OMG!!! It's HUGE!!!!" she screamed.
Charles laughed. "Yeah, I guess it is," he agreed.
"You know, I might want to stay here with you afterall," she told him, impressed with the place.
"I dunno. I mean, I'd love for you to stay, but I wouldn't want you to get hurt, Giselle. I don't think it's all that safe."
"Oh please! I can take care of myself, Chucky!"
She grabbed him by the hand away from the jacuzzi. "Show me the upstairs. Where can I crash?" she asked pulling him.
As they started up the stairs, one of the steps broke, and Giselle screamed as she fell through part of the way.
"GISELLE!!!! JESUS--Are you okay?!!" Charles screamed, holding her by the hand so she wouldn't go all the way through.
After the initial shock of falling, Giselle started laughing hysterically. "I'm okay, just get me out of here!"
Charles, nervous, carefully pulled her up through the broken step. "See this is exactly what I was talking about. It's too dangerous, Giselle."
"Don't be lame, Charles," she told him as she continued up the stairs by herself. When she got safely to the top, she turned and looked down at him.
"Well? Are you coming or not--wimp?" she challenged with a smirk on her face.
Embarrassed, Charles carefully climbed the stairs and joined her at the top.
"Good boy. Now show me around," she bossed him.
Candygwen
Charles slowly realizing this isn't a good idea for him to creep around. Meanwhile Nate and the kids return back from the arcades.
""Hey how was the arcades?" asked Dana.
"It was slammin." said Jeron.
"It was cool." said Tay.
"It's alllright." said Lizzie as she felt Jeron neglected him by paying attention Kendra.
"Well Tay, your mother wants you and Lizzie to come to the kitchen. Your parents wants to talk to you two." said Dana.
"Alright, I wonder what this all about?" wondered Tay.
"Me too." said Lizzie.
"And Tay I still want to have a word with you and Jeron brother to brother." said Nate.
"Man, I wish he would stop calling us that." annoyed Tay.
Batman642
Lizzie and Tay went into the kitchen and sat at the table.
"Are we in trouble?" Tay asked.
Jenn gave him a sympathetic smile. "Taylor......don't be silly. Of course not!" Jenn assured him.
Eddie looked at him scornfully. "Well, I don't know Jenn. SHOULD YOU BE IN TROUBLE, TAY?" he asked, wondering what went on at the Arcade.
Lizzie kicked Tay under the table.
"No Dad!" Tay responded quickly.
"Alright then," Eddie replied, satisfied. "We've been talking about leaving here and going to stay with your grandparents in San Diego for awhile. And we wanted to hear how you guys feel about it. Cassie's all for it, so what about you two?"
Candygwen
"Sound cool to me!!! I like the idea." said Tay.
"Well I don't what's wrong with staying with Mrs A.?" asked Lizzie.
"Well we've been staying here for awhile and I feel that we have wear out our welcome." said Jenn.
"That's crazy Mrs. Antoni likes us." said Tay.
""Well we're going have our house fix soon and we stayed here long enough." said Eddie.
"Well I really want to stay here with Dana, Jeron, & Nate." said Lizzie.
"Well I have no problem staying with Grandma & Grandpa." said Tay.
"Well Eddie is all up to you now." said Jenn.
"Well I'm still thinking about staying here." said Eddie.
"What!?!?" shocked Jenn.
"I don't want to get into it with your parents and I don't want be around where I don't feel wanted." said Eddie.
Batman642
"Eddie I hope you feel that way. I jus want you to really think this out this out.", said Jenn.
"I know Jenn. Just give me time. I promise I'll make the best decision", said Eddie kissing her forehead, "now lets all go get some shut eye", said Eddie.
Meanwhile back at the beachhouse Giselle was feeling a little guilty and was thinking about the twins.
"Giselle are you okay? You look out of it", asked Charles.
"Charles I have a question for you", said Giselle curious.
"Okay. What's the problem?", said Charles as he sat on the stairsteeps.
"Why aren't you with your family, your girl, or your twins", asked Giselle concered.
Charles's face fell.
"Charles you can talk to me. Maybe I can help you", said Giselle.
"Help me! No one can help me. No one can understand me, truly", said Charles
"Give it a try. I know I've been through lot as well. Please", said Giselle
So, Charles started from the very beginning of Chassie's relationship.
Robertadamsonlover
Jenn sighed, feeling defeated. "Well, I guess since we've been here this long a little longer won't KILL us," she agreed.
Eddie smiled, relieved that she didn't put up a fight.
"BUT," she continued, "I think the least we could do is let Cassie go to San Diego. She wants to go and I think it would be good for her to clear her head. All my daughter does lately is cry, cry, cry. And it's always about Charles. She needs a break before SHE BREAKS."
Eddie nodded. "Fair enough. If Cassie wants to go, she can go."
"What about Colin & Kalie?" Lizzie asked.
"That's up to Cassie. If she wants to take them with her, fine. If she wants to leave them here, fine," Jenn repled.
"Can I go ask her now?" Lizzie asked anxiously.
"Go ahead," Eddie said.
While LIzzie ran out of the kitchen and up the stairs to Cassie's room, Tay stayed seated at the table.
"It's not fair," he complained.
"What's not fair?" Eddie asked.
"I said I wouldn't mind going to visit Grandma and Grandpa and now I can't go? Just Cassie can go? It's not fair!"
"Taylor, I'll make a deal with you," Jenn started. "Let Cassie have this time for herself and you can spend the whole summer with your grandparents if you want. How's that?"
Tay thought about it. "Well, maybe not the WHOLE Summer," he replied feeling better.
Soon LIzzie came back to the kitchen.
"Cassie says she's leaving the twins here."
Candygwen
"That settle it then Cassie and the twins will leave for San Diego. All I have to do is make the arrangements." said Jenn.
Meanwhile Marla is getting worried because Charles hasn't come home as of yet.
"Marla don't worry Charles will be home soon." said Dana.
""Dana it getting close to ten. It's not like Charles to be home this late." said Marla.
"Why don't you call him on your cell?" suggested Dana.
"Good idea." said Marla.
Batman642
When Charles cell phone rang and he saw that it was his mother, he ignored the call out of spite--not liking the fact that she'd lied to him about Robin and the funeral, and not liking the fact that she volunteered his services to paint Vera's place.
Giselle noticed that he ignored the call. "Is that the same person that called you in the bar?" she asked, curious.
"No."
"You're avoiding an awful lot of peope,"she observed. "Are you sure you're not in the mob?" she teased.
Between Cassie's calls, Marla's calls and Giselle's endless questions, Charles was becoming very agitated.
"I think it's about time for me to take you home, Giselle," he informed her.
"But I was gonna crash here with you...." she whined, disappointed.
Charles just ignored her objection. "Come on--let's go!" he ordered her, snapping his fingers impatiently.
Giselle got up, sucking her teeth and pouting. "Oh alright!" she reluctantly obeyed.
He grabbed her by the arm and escorted her out of the beach house and to the car. After they got in the car, he realized he didn't know where she lived.
"So where am I taking you anyway?" he asked, annoyed.
"Uncle Billy's house," she replied.
He shot her a look of disbelief. "Giselle--I don't know your Uncle Billy or where he lives."
She shot him a look back. "Well you don't expect me to know, do you? I'm new around here!"
Charles angrily banged on the steering wheel. "This is just great!" he said sarcastically. "What am I supposed to do with you now?"
She shrugged and gave him a sly smile. "Oh well.........looks like I'll have to crash here afterall," she said satisfied with herself.
Charles started the car. "No way, sister. I'm taking you back right where I found you."
"You're gonna leave me in front of a liquor store at this time of night??" she asked, outdone.
Charles never responded. He just kept driving.
Candygwen
Charles kept driving until he saw a hotel nearby.
"Here I going to drop you off at this hotel. You can call your Uncle Billy so he can pick you up." said Charles.
"But Chucky baby I don't know his number." said Giselle.
"JESUS CHRIST!!! ARE YOU FREAKIN' SERIOUS??? YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE, YOU DON'T YOUR OWN PHONE NUMBER HOW IN THE HELL DO YOU GET AROUND??" annoyed Charles.
"Chucky Baby I said I was new around here." said Giselle.
"Will you please stop calling me that." said Charles.
"Temper Temper." laughed Giselle.
"God you are worst than Sage." said Charles as put his head down.
"Who's Sage?" asked Giselle.
"You don't want to know. Come on get out and go to the hotel." said Charles.
"Please don't leave me here all by my lonesome Chcky Baby." whined Giselle.
"Forget it I'm going home to my girl----I mean just going home." said Charles.
"But I'm scared lonely and I need a man to protect me." said Giselle as started to fake cry.
Soon Charles fell for the fake tears.
"Alright I'll spend a couple hours with you. And only a couple of hours." said Charles.
"Oh goodie we are going to have some fun." said Giselle.
"Great." said Charles as he rolled his eyes.
Batman642
Meanwhile, Marla is getting more and more worried about her son.
"Dana, he's not answering my calls!" she complained.
"Marla......calm down! Charles is a BIG BOY! He took care of himself just fine while you were galivanting out in Vegas. And NOW you're worried about him???"
Marla sighed. "That's different. We had an understanding while I was in Vegas--but I'm back now."
"So? Charles is used to being on his own, Marla. Not being accountable to anybody. He had a big fight with Cassie and Robin, so he's out cooling off is all. Don't be such a worry wart!" Dana said, laughing a little.
"I hope you're right. I hope he's okay."
"Come on, girl. Let's go in the den and watch a movie. You need something to occupy your mind," Dana suggested.
"Oh alright," Marla agreed as she followed her to the den. "What are we gonna watch?"
"Madea Goes to Jail. Jeron got me the bootleg while he was at the Arcade."
Marla chuckled. "Dana, you are SO GHETTO!"
Dana chuckled too. "You mean ghettoFABULOUS!" she said as she struck a pose.
Marla laughed and Dana was happy her friend wasn't worrying as much anymore about Charles.
Candygwen
Meanwhile back at the hotel after hours and hours of keeping Giselle company she finally went to sleep.
"Damn look how late this is. I may as well head back home and have my yell my head off." said Charles.
Charles paid for the hotel and left Giselle in the room. Charles went straight home.
"I hope my mom isn't too sore at me. But why did she kept a secret from me about Robin? I expect this more from Cassie, but my own mother?!?..Damn." said Charles as he drove home.
Batman642
When Charles got home, once again there was a light on in the den. This time before turning it off, Charles took a quick look on the couch and saw that Marla and Dana were passed out in front of the TV. He decided not to disturb them and just turned the light off and let them continue sleeping.
When he got upstairs, he walked past Cassie's room and noticed that there was a light coming from underneath her door as well. He thought it was strange for her to be up so late, but didn't have the nerve to talk to her yet. He knew he owed her an apology like Robin said, but just couldn't bring himself to say it yet.
I'll apologize in the morning, he thought as he walked past her room and into his own. When he turned his light on, he noticed there was a letter on his pillow from Cassie to him.
He sat on the side of his bed and started reading it.
Candygwen
"Dear Charles, the time you read this you'll that I will be staying over at Grandma & Grandpa Bradshaw over in San Diego until our house is built and I taking the twins with me. Things are not working out Charles. I'm really unsure about our relationship so therefore I feel that I need some time apart frrom you to see what I really want. I'm sorry I have to do this but you keep freaking out everytime I mention Robin name or when me and Robin are together and we are innocent. I'm sorry that I kept Robin a secret from you but you keep acting crazy and you start acting violently. And I have never lied to you Charles. Nothing happened to between me and Robin at the game room. I can't see why you can't find it in your heart to believe me and it hurts me. I just can't take it anymore. You keep saying you trying to change but I see no improvements. Trust me Charles it's better this way. Don't worry you will still see the twins on certain days and I still love you but I need to this time for myself to think about our relationship and our future together. I'm sorry it has to be this way Charles.
Cassie.
Charles was devastated and hurt.
"I can't let Cassie leave. I gotta stop her tomorrow." said Charles.
Batman642
"But what am I going to do. After all the fights we've had I know she won't take me back. I wounldn't take me back", said Charles as he crashed on his bed.
Suddenly there was a knock at his door.
"Come in", said Charles with his face in his hands.
"Why the long face?" asked Dana.
"My world is tearing apart. I'm losing my kids and the girl I love. I have know idea how to solve this on Dana. What do I do?", said Charles.
Robertadamsonlover
Dana looked at Charles sympathetically but knew that he needed tough love more than sympathy, so she put her hands on her hips and put on the biggest attitude she could at 3am.
"First off, you need to stop feeling sorry for yourself, boy!" she reprimanded him.
"You are NOT losing your kids! Cassie's taking them to visit their great grandparents for crying out loud. And SECOND, you need to realize that you can't keep running out on Cassie every time something goes wrong between you two and not expect her to do the same thing! She's just giving you a taste of your own medicine! What's the big idea, running outta here and not answering anybody's calls?? You had your mother worried sick!! You wanna know what you should do, Charles? I'll tell you what you should do--you should GROW UP!"
Charles wasn't expecting that type of reaction from Dana and his face showed it. Before he could say anything back to her, she left his room and shut the door behind her.
Candygwen
"Sorry I have to do this Charles but this is the only for you to get your act together once and for all." said Dana to herself.
The next day Cassie finished packing her clothes and the twins clothes as well.
"Cassie you got everything you need?" asked Jenn.
"Sure thing." said Cassie.
"You sure you don't want to eat anything beofore you leave?" asked Jenn.
"I'm sure mom." said Cassie.
"Well give me the twins because they need to eat. They're growing babies you know." said Jenn.
"Mom do you think I'm doing the right thing?" asked Cassie.
"Cassie you need to do what's best for you. Maybe this will bring you & Charles closer together." said Jenn.
"I guest you are right. But before I leave I need to stop by Robin first and talk o you ifthat's okay with you." said Cassie.
"Of course I don't see why not." said Jenn.
"Thanks mom." said Cassie.
"Just reember you father and I are there if we need you." said Jenn leaving the room.
As Cassie grabbed her suitcases and started to go downstairs she ran into Charles.
Batman642
"Cassie!" he reacted surprised and relieved that he hadn't missed her departure.
"I left you a letter, Charles," she said rather coldly.
"I know, I know. I read it," he acknowledged, trying to think of something to say at the last minute to change her mind.
"Sooooooo....I'm gonna be late if I don't leave," she hinted, wanting him to move out of the way.
"Here, let me carry your bag for you," he offered as he tried to take it from her.
"No, I've got it," she resisted.
"Please, let me help you," he insisted, overpowering her grip. He started down the stairs with the suitcase and she followed him, annoyed.
"Where are the twins?" he asked. "I'd like to say goodbye."
"They''re in the car with Nate. He's driving me to the terminal," she explained.
Charles went outside with the suitcase and put it in the trunk of Eddie's car and then kissed the twins goodbye as Cassie watched from the sidelines, a little sad.
Charles looked sad too, and even sadder when he approached Cassie and stood face to face with her.
"Before you go, you deserve my apology from the bottom of my heart, Cassie. I was dead wrong about everything and I'm not even gonna ask you to forgive me this time because that's totally up to you. I'm not pressuring you anymore, Cassie. I'm not begging you anymore. Because for the first time in my life, I feel like no matter what I do, it won't matter. So I'm not doing anything. I'll just be here waiting to find out what you're gonna do, and I know whatever decision you make it'll be the right one for all four of us and I'll go along with it whether I like it or not."
Cassie was touched by Charles' humility, and all she could manage to say was, "Thank you."
Before she knew it, his hand was caressing her cheek and his lips were on hers.

Before they got into a deep kiss Nate honk the horn.
"I can't keep them waiting gotta go Charles." said Cassie getting in the car.
"I'll be waiting for you beautiful." said Charles.
Cassie got in the car with Nate and the twins and drove off.
"I really messed things bigtime." said Charles said to himself.
Charles went into the house and walked passed Eddie and Jenn.
"You know as much as I don't trust Charles I actually feel sorry for him." said Eddie.
"Me too but it's for his own good." said Jenn.
Meanwhile as Nate was driving Cassie the twins, Nate asked Cassie does she still want to stop by to see her friend Robin.
"Yes." said Cassie sadley.
They arrived at Monica's house.
"Wait here with the twins." said Cassie.
Cassie rang the doorbell.
"Hey Cassie." greeted Robin as she opened the door.
"Hey." said Cassie.
"So you're really going to do this huh? Fly to San Diego." said Robin.
"Yes I really need some time for myself." said Cassie.
"Look Cassie I'm really am sorry. I feel some of it is my fault." said Robin.
"Robin please don't say that it's not." said Cassie.
"Nah I feel like everytime I come here I caused this drama between you and Charles." said Robin.
"Robin stop it!!! Just stop it!!! You have nothing to do with Me & Charles rocky relationship. It's Charles and I'm tired. I needed to get away for awhile." said Cassie.
"I understand I wish I could spend more time with you before I go back to Sea School." said Robin.
"Me too!!!" said Cassie.
"Well at least got a chance to spend time with the twins." said Robin.
"Yeah that was fun." said Cassie
"Hey here's an idea instead of going to San Diego how about you go to Sea School with me. I know we're in the middle of the semester but I can get you register and I can also put in a good word for you. Plus you get to see Lulu and Tawanna again." said Robin.
"Thanks Robin I would love to go to Sea School with you but I think I'm better off in San Diego." said Cassie.
"I understand!!! We still keep in touch?" asked Robin.
"Always!!! I better get going before I do I need to do one thing." said Cassie.
"What's that?" asked Robin.
"This." said Cassie.
Soon Cassie kissed Robin and the two were locking lips together. It was really long. Then Cassie saw Nate waiting.
"I've gotta go take care Robin." said Cassie.
"You too." said RObin.
Batman642
When Robin closed the door, Monica was standing behind him and startled him.
"JUST friends, huh?" she asked, obviously annoyed with the kiss she saw them share.
Robin didn't know what to say at first. "Cassie's an emotional wreck right now. She doesn't know which way is up," he explained.
"Does she know right from wrong?" Monica asked sarcastically.
Robin stepped around his mother and headed for his room. "I'm not getting into this with you today," he told her.
Candygwen
"Robin that girl is nothing but trouble!!!" said Monica.
"Mom why won't you leave Cassie alone?" annoyed Robin.
"Why won't she leave you alone?" frustrated Monica.
Robin went straight to his room and closed it.
"I know I only have three days but I want to get back to sea school." said Robin.
Meanwhile Nate was driving Cassie torward the airport.
"What was that all about?" asked Nate.
"What are you talking about?" asked Cassie.
"You know that kiss with Robin." said Nate.
"It's not what you think. We're just friends." said Cassie.
"That was no friendly kiss. Anyway didn't I see you lock lips with Charles just earlier?" asked Nate.
"It was just a emotional moment alright." annoyed Cassie.
"Yeah sure!!! If I didn't know any better I say you're starting to fall in love with Robin." said Nate.
"Why are you all up in my business?" asked Cassie.
"I just trying to get to know you sis." said Nate.
"We are not that related so you can stop calling me sis." said Cassie.
"Alright alright whatever. I do need to ask you one thing though." said Nate.
"What?" irritated Cassie.
"What is up with you going out with white dudes? I'm not tryng to be racist or anything or I have nothing against you dating outside of your race but what is wrong a brotha? Why don't you date black dudes. Believe or not there are good black men out there you know." said Nate.
"Just shut up and drive." annoyed Cassie.
"Alright whatever you say Miss Daisy." laughed Nate.
Batman642
Although Cassie was not intriged by Nate's comment. It still had truth. And those kisses would be the last thing she would remeber.
"I miss Daddy", cried Katie.
"Me too", echoed Colin.
"Its okay you guys. Just a few more months and you'll be able to see him again", said Cassie.
"No we won't", said Colin shaking his head.
"Yes you will. Why wouldn't you?", coaxed Cassie.
"Because momma. You love Uncle Robin. No more Daddy, right?", asked Kalie.
Robertadamsonlover
Cassie couldn't believe what she heard, and decided she must've been hearing things.
Meanwhile, Bill and Giselle were having a heated argument about her whereabouts the night before.
"I'm not having this, Giselle! How dare you come strolling in this house at 5am. Not even a phone call, Giselle! Why didn't you call and let me know you were alright?!" Bill yelled at his niece.
"I didn't have my cell and I couldn't remember your number, Uncle Billy! Please don't be mad!" she begged.
"You're starting off on the wrong foot, Giselle! Where were you all night?"
Giselle looked embarrassed. "I met a nice guy and I hung out with him. I was feeling like I really needed a drink, but he talked me out of it," she explained.
"Is that so?" he asked, skeptical. "Does this knight in shining armor have a name?" he asked.
"Charles. Charles Antoni," she replied.
Bill's face dropped.
Candygwen
"Go upstairs!!!" snapped Bill.
"What!?!?" shocked Giselle.
"Go upstairs so I can think of a suitable punishment for you." snapped Bill.
"That is so not fair." said Giselle stormed upstairs.
"This isn't happening. This is not happening. I don't know how my sister talked me into taking her in." frustrated Bill.
Bill is thinking whether or not to call Marla.
"I'm not going to lose Marla over this. There is no way. But I'm going to straighten some things out." said Bill.
Batman642
Bill wanted to talk to Charles and set some ground rules for him and Giselle. Since he didn't have Chareles' cell number, he called the Antoni residence.
When the phone rang, Marla and Dana were in the kitchen having a cup of coffee. Marla answered it and was thrilled to hear Bill's voice.
"It's good to hear you too, Marla," he told her. "Unforunately, this isn't what you would call a friendly call. In fact, I'm calling to speak with Charles if I may."
"Well if it's about Kalie's modeling, she's out of town for awhlie with her mother," Marla informed him.
"No, it's not about that. Is Charles around?" he persisted.
Marla sighed. "He's..................not feeling well, Bill," she replied, not wanting to air all of Charles' business.
"I see. Well in that case, I guess I'll have to drag you into this," he said reluctantly.
"What are we talking about, Bill?" she asked puzzled.
This time, Bill sighed. "Marla, I've got temporary custody of my niece, Giselle. She just turned 17 and has some issues at home, so she's with me for awhile. Yesterday, Giselle went out and didn't return home until 5 o'clock this morning. When I asked her where she'd been, she said she was hanging out with a guy by the name of Charles Antoni," he explained.
Marla gasped. "What??!! OMG, Bill -- I am SO SORRY," she apologized. "I had NO IDEA!!"
"I don't know what went on between the two of them and frankly I'm afraid to ask. On a positive note, she did say that Charles discouraged her from drinking."
"I'm still gonna kill him!"
"I just wanted to talk with Charles in case they continue seeing each other so that he'll know what is and isn't acceptable. Keeping her out until 5 in the morning is definitely unacceptable."
"Of course it's unacceptable! I totally agree with you. Belive me, I will get to the bottom of this Bill. In fact, hold on while I go get Charles. Whether he's feeling well or not, he owes you an apology," Marla decided.
So Bill held on the phone while Marla went upstairs to get Charles.
Candygwen
Marla barged into Charles door.
"MOM!!! WHAT THE HELL!!!" snapped Charles.
"WHAT THE HELL IS WITH YOU?" yelled Marla.
"Mom can't you see I'm upset?" snapped Charles..
"Yeah and what's the idea of coming this late and dropping a girl off in 5am? Especially if the girl is the....NIECE OF MY BOYFRIEND?" yelled Marla.
"Giselle is Bill's niece? Mom I didn't know. If I did I wouldn't....Charles trying to explain the Marla interuppted " Messed around behind Cassie's back or kept Giselle out all night." angered Marla.
"Mom it wasn't a date I promise you." said Charles.
"Oh it's better not. I finally meet a good man and I am not going to let you ruined this for me. Now Bill is on the phone waiting for you and you better marched your butt downstairs and talked to him NOW!!!" yelled Marla.
"Alright alright!!!" annoyed Charles.
Batman642
Charles spoke with Bill over the phone while Marla and Dana watched. Dana was very amused with the way things turned out since she had met Giselle earlier with Robin and Cassie.
"Marla, this is better than ANY soap opera," she whispered.
Meanwhile, Giselle was upstairs in her bedroom, fuming because she knew a punishment was fast approaching. I've gotta find a way to get on Uncle Billy's good side, she thought. What I need from him is sympathy -- not punishment.
When Bill got off of the phone with Charles, he came up to Giselle's room.
"I spoke with Charles," he informed her.
"Did he tell you the truth?" she asked, pretending to be very sad.
"He said he took you to the beach house, didn't know how to get you home, and left you asleep at a hotel."
"That's only PART OF THE TRUTH," she lied. "He didn't tell you what he did to me at the beach house?" she asked.
Bill started getting disturbed. "Exactly what did he do to you at the beach house?"
Giselle started to whimper. "He---he--he tried to----"
"Giselle........NO GAMES. I'm not falling for any of your games," Bill warned, not sure if she was trying to play him.
"Uncle Billy!! Look!" She showed him the scrapes that she got when she fell through the broken staircase.
"Jesus!" Bill reacted, horrified. "That--that--"
"ANIMAL!!" Giselle finished his sentence for him.
Bill grabbed Giselle and hugged her. "Oh sweetheart, I'm so sorry this happened to you....."
Things were working out just as Giselle planned. Any punishment Bill had in mind was totally forgotten.
"Uncle Billy, please don't make a big deal out of this with Charles," she pleaded in a tiny voice. “I just want to forget this ever happened.”
"I can't promise you that, Giselle," he replied. "But whatever I do, it won't be over the phone again."
Giselle's heart sank into her stomach as she realized that maybe her plan was starting to backfire.
Candygwen
Meanwhile Charles hanging around the sounds car shop thinking about how to get Cassie back. Until he saw Bill's car rolled up.
"I wonder what Bill doing here?" wondered Charles.
"Charles I want a word with you now." angered Bill as he got out of the car.
"I thought we talked over the phon!?!?" confused Charles.
"My daughter told me everything that you have done." said Bill.
"Huh?" confused Charles.
Then suddenly Bill punched Charles in the stomach.
"Oof...what the hell?!??'shocked Charles in pain.
"I don't what kind of sick things is going through that brain of yours but if you ever touched or hurt daughter again I will kill you you understand me?" warned Bill as got back in his car and drove off.
"But I haven't touched your daughter." said Charles in pain.
Meanwhile Nate finally arrived at terminal and dropped Cassie and the twins off.
Batman642
"Thanks for everything, Nate," Cassie said as she kissed him on the cheek.
"Are you gonna be alright? Can you manage?" he asked, doubtful.
"What choice do I have?" she asked. "We'll be fine. Just help me get them into the double stroller?" she asked.
After he helped her do that, Nate drove off.
"Well, guys," Cassie said to the twins, "looks like it's just us."
She pointed up at an airplane that was taking off. "See? That's what we're gonna be doing soon! We're gonna fly in a plane! Wanna fly?" she asked, trying to lighten the mood.
The twins both looked in amazement at the plane flying above their heads. Then they looked at each other, and started clapping, excited. "Yay! Yay! Yay! Yay!'" they screamed happily, and Cassie was glad.
She got one of the terminal guys to help her with her bags and they rushed over to the Departing Flights, got cleared by Security and took care of last minute business.
Before long, they were on the plane and in the air on their way to San Diego.
Candygwen
Meanwhile back at Marla's house.
"Jenn I'm worried are we sure that we done the right thing by sending Cassie & the twins to your parents?" asked Eddie.
"Of coure. You don't need to worried Cassie will be fine and mom and dad loves the twins." said Jenn.
"I guess ypu're right. I mean at least this time there is no one in San Diego or any going to San Diego to sex up our daughter." said Eddie.
"Eddie." said Jenn rollin' her eyes.
"We it been known to happened." said Eddie.
"Eat you food." said Jenn.
Meanwhile Tay was working on his music until he recieved a text message from Sage.
Batman642
The text said: "i finally got my cellphone back! sorry danny was rude 2 u. ttyl sage"
Even though it was just a short message, it made Tay's day.
"She still wants me....." he thought to himself with a smile as he texted her back.
Candygwen
"Don't worry about it, he's a jerk. And anyway I can't get mad at you", texted Tay filled with hope.
Meanwhile Charles was still cleaning his wonds when Giselle decided to stop by and see him.
"Aww...you poor little thing. What happen?", said Giselle as she approched him.
"Wha...What are you doing here!! Yoour little lying scam just got my ass whooped by your uncle", said Charles uneasy.
"Uncle Bill did this? Already? Wow hat was fast. But don't worry baby I'm here to make you feel better", said Giselle as she kissed Charles.
Charles fiercly held her back.
"No. I have already had to deal with a caniving lier like you before and I won't again. Now this is my warning. STAY AWAY FROM ME", said Charles.
Robertadamsonlover
"Oh Chucky Baby don't be like that." said Giselle as she rubbed his back.
"Don't touch me!!!" snapped Charles.
"Someone is bit sensitive today." said Giselle.
"Look Giselle this wole thing is a mistake. I am sure you are a nice girl but I am involve with someone and I have kids. I don't need you to make my life complicated." said Charles.
"Oh Chucky baby you know you want me." said Giselle as she grabbed his Charles butt.
"Will you please stop calling me that." annoyed Charles.
"Someone is a bit grumpy today." said Giselle.
"Didn't you hear what I said? Your Uncle whomped my ass because of you." said Charles.
"Sorry baby I didn't mean this to happen but I can't take a chance on getting in trouble again." siad Giselle.
"So you protected you own ass?" angered Charles.
"Exactly. But let me make this up to you baby." said Giselle.
"You want to make this up to me? Get out and don't ever come back." said Charles.
"Alright I'll leave...for now but here's my phone number in case you get bored. So long Chucky baby." said Giselle leaving.
Batman642
Charles was very upset with Giselle, but for some strange reason, instead of throwing the number away, he shoved it into his pants pocket.
Then, he decided if he was gonna have any chance at all with Cassie that the least he could do is show some concern for her and the kids. He looked at his watch and decided it would be a good time to call and see if they had arrived safely.
He called her cell phone and was so happy that she picked up instead of ignoring his call the way he ignored hers.
"Hi Charles," she answered. "What's up?"
Candygwen
"Hey beautiful I just calling to see if you had landed yet.." said Charles.
"Not yetwe won't land for the next hour." said Cassie.
"Cool, how our kids doing on their first flight?" asked Charles.
"They're wonderful and I am surprised because most kids would be scared on their flight but not them they were excited they were in the air. Plus the airline stewardist(sp) gave them airplaine badges. Their honorary pilot." said Cassie.
"That's great...Cassie I know you just left but I really do miss you." said Charles.
"I miss you too but for now it's for the best." said Cassie.
"Like I said before I'll be ready for whatever descision you may make." said Charles.
"I know...I gotta go I think Clin's diapers needs to be chamge again." said Cassie.
"Okay I'll call you soon." said Charles.
Batman642
Meanwhile, Monica knocks on Robin's bedroom door and pokes her head in.
"Hey," she said as she stood at the door.
"Hey," he replied as he lay on his bed writing.
"You still mad at me?" she asked.
"I'm not mad at you. It's just been a rough fews days is all," he explained as he continued writing.
"What are you writing?" she inquired.
"It's private," he told her, not wanting her to know that it was a letter to Cassie.
Monica decided not to push the issue. "Oh, I see. Well, we were gonna spend some time together, and here you are shut up in your room alone while I'm out in the livingroom alone. So much for together, huh?" she asked.
Robin looked up at her. "I'll take you out to eat--how's that?" he asked, trying to make her feel better.
She smiled at him. "That'll do just fine. I'll go get ready now," she said closing the door.
Robin sat up and put the finishing touches on his letter to Cassie. Then he read it over to make sure it was just right.
"Dear Cassie,
By the time you read this, I'll be back at Sea School.......
Candygwen
I am sorry that you have been through so much. I really want to be there and help you. And I really want to be in San Diego with you. The truth is I never stop loving you and deep down I want to be more than just friends. Despite of what happened being with you these past few days has been great. These has been the best days of my life. It just too bad you didn't get to see fly back to school again. Anyway as I say before I really think we should continue being friends because I want to see where this relationship is going with Lulu and you need decide rather or not you want to be with Charles. Personally I think you need to dump him because you and the twins deserves much better than this. However I can't decide for you. You have to decide for yourself. And whatever decision you make I will always be there for you. Do I will keep in touch with you through the video phone. I hope things works out for you.
Love Robin
P.S. Tell Mr. Suttons thanks for everything and give my love to Lizzie and the others.
"Now all I have to do now is to seal it up and mail it." said RObin.
Batman642
"Come on Robin. Let's go before the resturant get closes", yelled Monica.
"I'll just hav to deal with this later" thought Robin as he went to the car.
"Hold on one second Robin. I forgot my keys", said Monica a she closed the door behind him.
She then remebered the letter that was in his room and curiously snuk in to read it. After she read it she knew he son was in love with two women and had to make a decision. So she decided to fax the letter to Lulu.
"This is for the better", thought Monica as she gulity placed the letter back.
Meanwhile on Sea...
Robertadamsonlover
Lulu recieved a fax letter.
"Hmm I wonder who it's from." Lulu wondered.
"Damn it's hot up here. I wish they hurry up and fix this air conditioner." said Tawanna.
"Me too. It's like a boiler room in here." said Lulu.
"Let me opened this porthole. At least we can get air in here." said Tawanna as she crack opened the porthole.
"Hey fax letter came from my boo." said Lulu.
"I wonder what it says?" asked Tawanna.
Suddenly one of the student barged in and told the girls they are going to show a double feature movie on the deck and they have the bootlegged copied of Madea's goes to jail and Meet The Browns.
"Hey I'm down with some Tyler Perry movies." said excited Tawanna.
"Me too I guess I have read this later." said Lulu as she put the letter down along with her assignment.
As Lulu and Tawanna left the air conditioner kicked back on and all the papers Lulu wrote and including the fax letter blew out of the porthole.
Batman642
A few hours later, Lulu and Tawanna returned to their room and realized what happened.
"Oh no! I can't believe my boo's letter is gone! I didn't even get to read it!" Lulu whined as she closed the porthole.
"Girl, whatever you do DON'T mention it to Robin! It'll hurt his feelings. You know how guys can be!" Tawanna advised.
"But if I don't say I got his letter, his feelings might be hurt even worse!" Lulu reasoned.
"Do what you want, but I don't think you should bring it up unless HE BRINGS IT UP," she suggested.
"Well.........okay. But if this blows up in my face, T, I'm comin' after you--you hear?" she threatened playfully.
Tawanna played along and shivered. "Ooooo, I'm scared of YOU!" she teased.
Lulu laughed. "Let's get some sleep."
Meanwhile Robin and Monica return home from their dinner.
Candygwen
"That certainly a great dinner. It just like old times huh Robin?" said Monica.
"Yeah old times." said Robin.
"What's wrong Robin? You've been quiet the whole day." said Monica.
"I don't want to talk about it." said Robin.
"Robin please. I know these past few days haven't been the best but I ma still your mother. Talk to me." said Monica.
"Alright why do you hate Cassie all of the sudden?" asked Robin.
"What!!" shocked Monica.
"Come on Mom you've been giving her lot of slack lately. I expect this more from Dad but from it hurts." said Robin.
"First of all I do not hate Cassie. However I don't trust the girl because she doesn't know what she wants. And that boyfriend of hers isn't doing her no justice. And apparently it seems like you don't know want anymore." said Monica.
"What does that suppose to mean?" asked Robin.
"That kiss I saw this morning. And don't tell me that was a friendly kiss. That type of kiss is what you see in a Soap Opera." said Monica.
"Mom it's not like that. Anyway she kissed me. I didn't kiss her." said Robin.
"Then why didn't you tell her to stop? Unless you enjoyed it." said Monica.
"I was caught off guard. It was a moment." said Robin.
"Robin you went along and you both kissed. That wasn't just a moment and have you forgotten that you already have a girlfriend?" asked Monica.
"No I haven't. I talked to Lulu the other day and plus I already made it clear to Cassie that I only want to be friends with her." said Robin.
"But have you made it clear to yourself?" asked Monica.
"Mom, why are you bugging me about this?" annoyed Robin.
"Because it seems like you are falling in love with Cassie and you trying to force yourself that you are not." said Monica.
"Mom, for the last night I want to be with Lulu. Cassie and I are friends and nothing else." said Robin.
"Alright fine I will take your word for it. But I'll say this if you do have feelings for Cassie you need to make a descision who you want to be with. Robin, Cassie is a very fragile girl right now and I don't want to see you get hurt and I also don't want you to play these girls as fools. I don't want you to be like your father." said Monica.
"My mind is already made up. I want to be with Lulu. No one else." said Robin.
"You're sure?" asked Monica.
"I'm positive." said Robin.
Batman642
"Well in that case.........I have a confession to make to you," Monica admitted.
"Confession?" Robin was totally confused. "Mom, what are you talking about?"
"You might want to sit down," she suggested as she sat at the kitchen table.
Robin sat down.
"Lulu might have received a fax that she shouldn't have received earlier this evening," Monica started, regretting what she'd done.
"Mom, I don't know WHAT you're talking about," Robin told her still clueless.
"I did something that I thought was right, but now I realize it was very wrong," she confessed. "Remember when I came back into the house before we left for dinner?"
"Yeeeeeeesssssssss.................." Robin agreed, annoyed with the suspense.
Monica gulped a little. "Well, I went into your room and the saw the letter you wrote to Cassie. I didn't think it was right and I thought Lulu should know what she was up against and so I faxed it to Lulu over at the Sea School."
Robin stood up from the table immediately. "YOU DID WHAT????!!!!!!!!!" he asked, horrified.
Monica jumped a little, unnerved by Robin's outburst. "I thought it would put an end to all of the secrecy and hurt feelings and indecision."
"IIF LULU READS THAT LETTER, WHICH SHE PROBABLY ALREADY HAS, SHE'LL BE DEVASTATED. SHE'LL BREAK UP WITH ME FOR SURE!! HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME, MOM???" Robin continued to yell.
Monica felt guilty and totally helpless. She sat at the table with her head buried in her hands.
"Maybe she didn't get it," she finally said weakly, hoping for a miracle.
"WHY WOULDN'T SHE GET IT, MOM?! IF YOU SENT IT, SHE GOT IT!!!" Robin yelled as the veins in his neck started to bulge.
"I'm sorry, Robin."
"THE LETTER WAS FOR CASSIE AND SHE HASN'T EVEN READ IT YET, BUT LULU HAS!!!" Robin said, ignoring her apology.
"I'm SORRY, honey," Monica repeated, feeling worse.
"NOT AS SORRY AS YOU'RE GONNA BE!" he warned angrily as he stormed out of the kitchen and into his room.
Monica didn't like the way her son was looking or sounding, so worried, she followed him to his room.
"Robin, what are you gonna do?" she asked, trembling.
Candygwen
Robin ran to his room and packed up his clothe and his things.
"Robin where are you going? You still have two days left." said Monica.
"I'm going to a hotel. That way I can at least my last couple of days without any drama. At this after I'm not sure if can face Lulu when get the letter." said RObin.
"Robin, please stop I'm really sorry. I'm really am sorry." cried Monica.
"Mom, youhave no idea what you have done." said Robin.
"Robin please come back in. I didn't know alright. But you have to truthful to Lulu and yourself." said Monica.
"Mom I really do want to be with Lulu but now thanks to you may end up losing her." said Robin.
"Then talk to her. Take a chance. If she does then be honest with her. If she doesn't have it. Stay with your word and be with Lulu. Robin I'll make this up to you I promise." said Robin.
Robin slowly walked back in and called Lulu on his cell.
Batman642
"Hey Boo!" Lulu greeted him
She was trying to sound her usual. perky self. But inside she was nervous and guilty because the faxed letter had blown away before she could read it.
Robin could tell from the sound of her voice that something wasn't quite right, and of course he thought it was because she did read the letter and was hurt since it was meant for Cassie's eyes only.
"Lulu, how are you?" he asked anticipating the worse.
"Oh, I'm okay. It sure is good to hear your voice."
"Oh? I guess talking is better than writing, huh?" he asked, waiting for her to explode any minute.
"I love to read the things you write, Robin--especially the poems. Letters are nice too, but I just like your voice is all."
She was hoping he wouldn't say much about the letter so that she wouldn't have to pretend to know what was in it.
"Yeah, sometimes I can go off the deep end in a letter and not say things exactly the right way," he said trying to work his way up to an apology.
"It happens," she replied, wondering how she could get off of the subject. Then she got an i
