Shit! We didn't even agree on a time or a day! What am I gonna do?
"Regina, hey, Regina!" Mary Margaret waves her hand in my face, "What is wrong?"
"I never discussed a time or day with Robin, when I left. " I reply.
"Text him, call him. Better yet, let's go and see him in person!" She smiles.
"Haha, you've got to be smoking something, I'm not going to see him."
"Well then, how are you going to talk to him?" She questions.
"Why do you have to be so difficult? I'm hungry, can we go to Granny's?"
"What a great idea! Go start the car while I go get my purse and jacket."
"I was hoping to walk, and get some air. It's so stuffy." I say.
"Will you meet me outside then?"
"Okay. You have 5 minutes to get your ass down there, or I'm leaving without you. Don't pull any stunts." I warn.
"Go Regina! I'll be down in 5 minutes tops."
As I walk out the door, my phone rings,
Why is Robin calling me?
"Robin, I said not to-" I was cut off.
"Gina please come home! I need you, Papa needs you. You need us. We, we can be happy, we can be a family. Please Gina?"
"Roland, did your father put you up to this?"
"No Gina, we are supposed to be napping. I took his phone."
"You not to do that Roland." I say sternly.
"I know Gina, but I can't sleep, I need your lullaby, and that, that story." He sniffles and my heart hurts.
"Roland, I, I can't come back just yet. Lay down in your bed and out the phone on speaker please." Giving him directions, so he goes to sleep.
"Okay Gina, I'm in bed, and you're on speaker."
"Good, now I will sing to you." I begin the little lullaby, " Hush my darling, for it is time to close your eyes and dream of such sweet things. As I rock you to sleep, think of happy thoughts, and you shall soon be slumber. I shall see you when you awake. For I am here, watching over you. Sleep darling, oh sleep." I hear his little snires, and I couldn't help but listen. As I listen, I hear his door open.
"Why is my phone in here. Did I leave it hear?" I hear Robin attempting to be quiet, he has never been able to whisper very well. Hearing his voice made me smile.
"He called Gina, she's still on!" I hear, and I couldn't help but let out a laugh.
"I am truly sorry mi'lady, did he bother you?" He asks.
"No, he just needed a lullaby for him to sleep. All is alright, Robin."
"Regina, I'm sorry." He says.
"Robin, meet me tomorrow at Granny's please."
"I shall be there, darling." He hangs up, and Mary Margaret is late. That call took way longer than you minutes, nonetheless, I walked outside 13 minutes ago...
You better get out here soon, or I'm going. I text Mary Margaret.
Meet me there please, David and I are on the phone. She replies.
See you there, or are you going to bail and see David? If you want to see David, go ahead. I state.
Regina, I am not going to bail on you! You need me! I'm going to be there.
See you soon. I end the conversation and head to Granny's.
~Granny's Diner ~
"Hey Regina, how ya doin'?" Says Ruby.
"I'm doing fine, thank you." I smile, "How about yourself, how are you Jack doing?"
"Good, we are doing good, could I start you with a drink?"
"That would be great, two sweet teas please. Mary Margaret should be coming."
"When she comes in I'll give her the drink. I'll be right back with yours." She walks away, why does she have to wear such skanky clothing? She's beautiful without the clothes and the makeup.
-Ring-
The door opens, hoping it was finally Mary Margaret, nope, it was Robin. I roll my eyes and look down at my menu, hoping he wouldn't notice me.
He's looking at me, he's obviously contemplating coming over here. Please come over here, I miss you.I look up to find his eyes and motion him to come and sit.
"Did Mary Margaret call you?" I ask.
"No dear, but I did see her walking up here, but then she bumped into David, and they started walking back to her apartment."
"That doesn't surprise me, I knew that would happen." I slightly giggle.
"Regina..." He starts, "I'm sorry I made you feel the way you did, I love you Regina. This past month has been heart wrenching, for both I and Roland."
"I know Robin, I'm sorry from running away and not taking to you, I put my walls up, and I hurt you. I love you Robin."
"Will you come home with me? Or would you like to finish out the month?"
"I wanna come home to you both." I look down and start playing with my straw.
"Is Mary Margaret here?" Ruby asks.
"She's not coming, she's with David. Can I have a Ceaser Salad, with a side of fries, please?" I order.
"Yup, and for you Robin, what would you like?"
"The meatloaf with potatoes and green beans please."
"What do you want drink?"
"Water please." He says so gracefully.
"I'll put these in, and I'll get your water." Ruby explains.
"Robin, I'm sorry, I really am." I state.
"I've forgiven you, and you're back in my arms. That is all that matters. Roland will be very excited to see you home tonight." He smiles and kisses the back of my hand ever so lightly. I blush and smile, his charm swoons me.
