A Moonacre twist

Chapter eight

I quickly brushed myself off, Robin would be here soon. Just at the thought the sound of boots thudding came from by the window, I jumped at the sound but let out a quite sigh.
"Robin de'noir don't ever scare me like that again" I snapped and playfully hit his shoulder
"Fine but only if you explain this whole situation to me" he bargained
"Alright, what do you want to know first?" I gave in.
"Why didn't you tell me you had a sister? And why are you both here?
Why did you lea-"
"Whoa, whoa one question at a time. I don't know you never asked if I had a sister." I stopped to see his face, he scolded back at my innocent smile
"Um...i came back because..well" I just couldn't bring myself to tell him
"Because why" he could sense my uncomforting thoughts, and lightly gripped my shoulders, while searching my eyes for any sort of emotion
"My father died" I bluntly added, hiding any emotion from covering my face.
"Oh, I'm sorry" Robin sighed in a regretful tone
"It's fine really, he didn't care about us anyway" I tried to calm him down
"I'm sure he cared about you" Robin piped in
"No Robin he didn't, he left me and my sister, Maria, with nothing, he gambled it all away" I let a single lonesome tear escape, Robin quickly wiped it away before I completely broke down and sobbed into his chest.
"Shh" he hummed into my ear and rocked me back and forth in his arms, I just sobbed in response. I slowly calmed down , after I stopped and realized what was happening around me, I was lying in robins arms with my head on his now soaking wet chest, on my bed, and to be honest there was no where I'd rather be. And we quietly drifted off to sleep.
