--------------------

I only managed to go a half day on Tuesday before breaking down into sobs during fourth period, and Asher drove me home. Harry didn't go to school, neither did Louis.

Robin was the father figure in both Harry and Louis's lives. Their family's have always been so incredibly close.

I went to half of school on Wednesday and Thursday, then leaving to go to the viewings with Harry.

It was now Friday, and so many of us are not going to school today.

Today was Robin's funeral.

My dad took the day off, and so did many others.

From the looks of it, it looked like almost the entire town tried to fit into this small local church here in Potter.

I was planning on standing alongside my family and Eleanor's family, but both Harry and Gemma were almost begging for me to be up there with them.

So here I was.

Flanked by both Styles siblings, Ben on Gemma's left, and Anne ahead of us alongside Robin's sisters. My left hand held Gemma's, and my right hand was gripping Harry's arm. They had just began the service, saying a prayer and singing Robin's favorite song from church.

And then it was time for his eulogy, which Anne chose Louis's mom Johannah to write.

"When approached by my strong and beautiful best friend Anne Twist to give Robin's eulogy, I was honored, and touched." Johannah began "Robin was such a big part of this community, he coached many of our children, our sons and daughters. He welcomed anyone into his home, including my son and daughters, who he treated like his own." She looked up at all of us "Robin was a Godly man, always wanting to lead those he came in contact with in the right direction."

I give Gemma's hand a squeeze as Johannah continued. "Robin stepped up and became the father two children didn't have, and he cared and raised them like his own. He mended the broken pieces my dear friend was left in after her previous relationship, and made her whole again. Robin was kind, he was selfless. When going through my own struggles I knew I could always go to both him and Anne for helping hands. And when there was a father son day at school, he went as both Louis and Harry's dad."

My head rested on Harry's arm "Robin is with us, he is watching over us. The Lord called upon him earlier than we expected, but God has a plan. We will stand by each other and grieve, but also remember the joy Robin brought us all. The love that resonated from him. He will never be forgotten."

Johannah finished, stepping away from the podium. She stopped to hug Anne before heading back to seat beside Louis, who took her hand as soon as she returned. The service continued and the sniffs and quiet sobs were heard throughout it.
