CHANGES, robby keene

02 ✔️

The news of Robby Keene being arrested and sent to juvie spread like a fire around the Valley.

Fran felt bad for him. The Robby she knew wasn't on the greatest path either, but he had a good heart. She didn't believe he would ever put someone in a coma willingly.

Speaking about coma, Miguel had apparently woken up, and Miyagi-Do was holding a car wash to raise money for him.

Moon had asked if she wanted to help, but Fran wasn't in the mood and frankly, she didn't even know this Miguel everyone kept talking about.

She did see Sam on the news. Fran got up, tired of watching tv, and tried her hardest to remember the adress.

Johnny Lawrence wasn't expecting anyone, so when he heard knocking on his door, he sighed with annoyance.

He flunked open the door and before him stood a girl he didn't recognize.

"You're Johnny Lawrence? I'm Fran. Friend of Robby."

"Robby's not here."

"Yeah, duh. I know, he's in juvie. That's what I came here for."

"I'm visiting him today. I'll tell him you stopped by."

"You're visiting him today? Great, I'm coming with you."

"You can't just- you have to let them know and all, otherwise you're never getting in."

"Yeah. So, let's let them know and all, shall we?"

At the end of the night, Fran went alone, because Johnny Lawrence was nowhere to be found.

She met with a priest who claimed he wasn't a priest, named Bobby, and they went in together after waiting for Johnny, in vain.

They sat down at a table, Robby arriving not long after them.
His eyes widened when he saw his former friend.

"Frances? Since when are you back?"

"Since this year. Since when are you in juvie?"

Robby smirked, "Since this year."

Fran snorted, "This is Bobby. He's accompanying your father because he wasn't allowed to see you alone. We're just waiting for him now."

And so they did. Robby and Fran talked about the last year, Bobby occasionally throwing in a story of his. Johnny was still nowhere to be found, and so Bobby eventually decided to leave them alone.

"It's fine, really. Thanks for coming anyway, but he's not gonna show up now," Robby sighed, referring to his dad.

"Alright, if you're sure. You're a good kid, don't let this get you down," Bobby saluted them, and then it was just the two teens left.

"I'm not sure if it's even legal for me to be here alone. I'm a minor."

"Well, if they don't let you out, you're always welcome in my cell," Robby joked.

Fran laughed, "That's very courteous of you."

It was quiet for a while, until Fran decided to break the silence, "So, now that the priest is gone, do you wanna talk about what happened? I only heard about it from other people."

Robby sighed.
"I didn't mean to actually hurt him that bad. But well, he kissed my girlfriend- at that time, I'm pretty sure we're not together anymore- and I got so lost in my rage, you know?"

"Yeah I get it. But you're the one in juvie, and you didn't even start any of it."

"It sucks."

"I'm sorry, Robby. You'll get through it. And besides, you have me! A gift from God!"
