Chapter 59: Chapter 59

: Telling Robin

Meanwhile

Robin had received a call from his old friend and was in his way to their spot. He had told the guards to stay behind because his friend did not like having a lot people when they met up.

He parked his Rover by the street near a dark alley. He came out and walked down the dark alley.

Although it was still morning the large buildings on either side blocked the sun 24/7 giving the alley a dark shadowy feeling.

Both way Robin proceeded and walked down the alley, there was a small gate and he opened it following the straight path. Then suddenly he stopped, staring straight ahead.

A dark hooded figure stood before him, his head bowed. The figure lifted his head up slowly and Robin smiled as he moved closer.

"Zed! long time, " he greeted.

Zed smiled pulling his hood off, "brother, still feels like yesterday," he replied as they bro-hugged.

"you're healthy, I can see you still have this old cloak," Robin replied

"I'm never getting rid of it, it's a part of me now," he responded still smiling, "ah it's so good to see you, still healthy and rich."

Robin grinned, "what can I say? Hard work pays off," he replied, "so do you have it?" he asked

Zed pulled out a brown package from his cloak.

"You got everything about them?" Robin asked as he looked at the package.

"Yeah, all your families background, it's all here, " he stated.

"Alright, give it to me," Robin said stretching his hand out.

Zed paused clutching the package. He shook his head, "nah man," he said.

"Why?" Robin asked surprised then he laughed, "Is it your money? I've sent it to your account, you know I'd never double cross you," he said.

"I know, I saw the money," Zed replied.

"Then what's wrong? Why won't you give it to me?" Robin asked his heart pounding?

"I don't think you want to see this," he replied shaking his head.

"What? what's going on?" he asked?

zed sighed, "I did a background search in your family and I found a secret, then yesterday from nowhere I received a video, I don't know who it was from but I guess someone else has been investigating your family and knew we talked."

"What do you mean?" robin asked, his eyes widening, "what was in the video?"

Zed sighed handing him over the package, "You better watch it when you are at home, around your family, it may be the last time you cuddle your wife.  I don't know where the video came from but it was sent to me and it said I should hand it over to you with the other information. Someone else has been stalking you and your family, and things are going to get ugly," he informed.

Robin stared at the sealed package in his hands, then back at zed.

"I'll see you around man, you'll be okay," Zed said patting his back.

Robin nodded as he was left alone in the alley.

He walked back to his car and put the package in the seat beside him. he looked at it feeling very uncomfortable.

Then he started the car and headed home.

When he arrived he headed straight to his study where he closed the door behind him. As he opened the package, a flash attached to a note fell out. The note spelt out THE TRUTH in Bold letters.

He looked at it for a second, this was the video Zed talked about. He put it aside as he first read the documents, breathing in and out as he finally learnt the truth the hard way.

***********

Britney left the hospital allowing Clair and Justin to take Chris home. The ride home was overwhelming to justin. He hoped to god, Robin wasn't at home so he didn't have to tell him anything and prayed even harder not to see Bree because he new he would probably kill her with this hatred he had in his heart for her.

It seemed to burn him up inside but Chris and Clair kept boosting his confidence telling him it would soon be over. As they drive into the Villa,  Justin spotted his fathers car.

He swallowed hard for a moment, knowing Robin was at home.

"Well, he is here," Chris said as the car was parked.

They got out of the car and entered the villa, rather slowly and hesitantly.

Chris walked ahead of him looking for Robin. He searched everywhere till he heard a cough comming from the study.

"Bingo, " he said underneath his breath before going up to Justin's room where Justin and Clair was sitting as Justin was breathing heavily.

"Maybe I shouldn't, I can't lose another father," he said rocking back and forth.

Clair was rubbing him gently on his back, "you'll be alright," he was shaking his head vigorously as Chris came and squatted in front of him handing him a glass of water.

"Justin look at me," he said calmly but firmly.

Justin looked up slowly still shaking and out of breath.

"it's okay to be scared when you don't have anyone, but now I'm here, Clair's here so there is no more reason to be afraid."

Justin stopped shaking as Clair watched in amazement. Chris stood up and gave Justin a hand up.

"Brothers forever," he said

Justin smiled a little, "bromise?"

"Cross my heart," he replied.

Justin took his hand and stood up as Clair watched Chris and Justin walk away Chris arm over Justin as he him to the study.

As They stood before the closed door, Justin  gritted his teeth,

"you know Dad loves you," Chris eased, "I've never seen man as dedicated to being a father as he is, " he paused looking at Justin, "the question is do you love him enough to tell him the truth?"

Justin knew the answer to this, he nodded, "I do," he replied.

Chris patted his back and stepped back, "you know what to do then," he said.

Justin looked up at the oak doors as he swallowed his fear and knocked on the door.

A throat was cleared from the inside as Justin heart thumped.

"come in," Robin called out clearly.

With shaky hands, Justin opened the door looking back at Chris for the last time  who gave him a thumbs up. He opened the door and went in, leaving the door slightly opened making it easier for Chris to see what was going on inside.

"Dad? I-I need to talk to you,"

Justin said, his throat all scratched up and voice skipping.

Robin nodded, "go ahead," without turning back to see Justin's face.

Justin could already feel the cold in the room and his fathers harsh voice.

He boldly took another step, "could you look at me? I need to tell you something very important," he said

"I'm a but busy, " Robin replied, his voice was low and hoarse, "just say what you came to say, I'm listening."

Justin looked at Robin surprised, he was facing his computer when he had said this, his head lowered as if he had watched a sad movie or something even worse.

"okay," Justin said as he's confidence started running out. he cleared his voice.

"I," he breathed out not knowing what to say, "I-I'm sorry," he said blinking heavily.

"Sorry for what?" Robin asked still facing away.

"I ...oh god," he said lowering his head, "dad I slept with Bree," he said finally blurted out.

This was not the plan. He was supposed to start from the beginning.

He slowly raised his gaze just in time to see his fathers shoulders heave out as if disapointed or angry.

"Not just once, almost every night, I'm sorry, I-I" he trailed off as his voice shook and tears filled his eyes, what could he say? How could he even start to explain? He didn't know how to say it.

Robin stood up suddenly. Justin's eyes followed his movement like a cat,  his heart leaping like a frog,  his rate increasing as he saw his fathers hands curl to a fist.

He could see Chad in him as Robin turned around, yes... they looked the same, the same way Chad would look before hitting Justin, that's the same way way Robin looked.

Justin had paused as he saw that there was no difference, the red eyes, clenched fists, hard look.

Justin closed his eyes, breathing frantically, standing up as Robin approached him.

He deserved this.

Chris watched praying silently as he saw the look on Robins face. He knew Robin loved Bree, and after all he had done for them, he would only see them as ungrateful brats, that was the logical.

His heart thumped knowing that justin was about to receive the punch of his god damn life.

Robin approached Justin, all firey with anger.

Justin counted the steps to his fathers wrath, shutting his eyes. He expected pain, a lot of it, but all he felt was strong hands wrap round him.

He opened his eyes in surprise.

Robin was hugging him so tight he could hardly breathe. He looked at his father in shock and so did Chris.

Justin stared into nothingness breathing heavily, being held tight as for the first time  he saw Robin cry, just like Chris did when Justin first told him.

He just held Justin tight and cried and cried shaking his head..

Justin couldn't believe the relief that was flooding through him at that moment, as he held his father, not really knowing what was happening but he knew his father wasn't angry at him. He returned the hug holding Robin tightly telling him he was sorry.

"You don't know how much I love you, my boys, I wish I was there, I should have been there," he said shaking his head repeating the same words.

Justin didn't know what Robin meant but the simple I love you,  enough for Justin's fragile heart. he was finally free right there in his loving fathers arms.

Meanwhile

Bree had arrived and had just entered  the house when she ran into Clair.

"I think I know you..," she said smiling softly, as she looked at her.

"you'll soon wish you didn't," Clair hissed, pushing away past her.

Bree watched her in shock. In her house a stranger was talking to her like that? Did that just happen?

She watched Clair head down stairs, gritting her teeth, and proceeded to check to see if Justin had come back or Chris was home.

The rooms where empty.

She went down the hall way and saw Chris leaning against the wall near Robins study.

She smiled and walked over to him.

Chris heard the footsteps and looked up seeing what he never hoped to see in his entire life after learning the truth.

He watched her, an angry storm burning through him,  as she approached, "hey baby, is your father in?" she asked leaning over to give him a kiss on the cheek.

"Don't  you dare touch me" Chris said before she could kiss him.

"what's wrong baby?" Bree asked, completely taken by surprised.

"I'm not your son, and Justin isn't either, so don't baby me," he hissed.

"what are you talking about?" Bree asked surprised, "I kiss you all the time."

"it ends today, " Chris sneered, towering over her, "because  after a kiss god knows what else you would want, " he spat.

She paused and took a step back realizing that something was very wrong,

"you better leave while you can," Chris jeered, "you can't have my brother anymore," he said harshly.

She looked at him breathing heavily biting her tongue aggressively.

Chris watched her hardly able to contain himself, if she was a man he would have beaten her to death.  She backed away and opened the study door walking in.

she found Justin still hugging Robin as Robin patted his back as tears run down his cheek.

His eyes red and swollen eyes glistened in the light. He looked up at her and she saw the side of him she had never seen before in her life.

"Robin, whatever he told you, i-it's a lie, " she stuttered out, her body shaking in frat, " I have proof, " she gasped, "he's the one that-" she trailed off, her voice skipping, both scared and nervous.

At the sound of her voice Justin and broke up the hug and stood beside his father facing Bree.

Robin turned to Justin, "Go on son, let me talk to your mot-Bree," he said.

Justin looked at the woman who had ruined him for a moment then walked away.

He found Clair and Chris outside. Clair took Justin to his room after a few hugs, and an I told you you'd be alright.
