My Love is Your Love

Chapter Thirty-One: The Separation

Robin glared around the flat that Paige lived in, he hated that she had been forced to live in a place like this; it broke his heart to know that there was nothing that he could do to change anything.

The last four weeks had been difficult for the former couple and Robin had decided that he would never forgive his father for what had happened to him and Paige; he looked around the place where his ex-fiancée was now living and wondered what he could do to help her.

Paige crossed her arms as she looked at Robin, he was picking up Alisha and Noah for the weekend; this wasn’t easy on her and with what would have been their wedding day approaching things were getting awkward between them.

“How have you been?” Paige asked as she ignored the guilt that seemed to grow inside of her, she knew that if she hadn't of signed the prenup then they wouldn’t be in this position.

Robin looked at the brunette, he could see that she was exhausted and he felt even worse for not being able to help her in anyway; he already had his lawyer looking over a copy of the prenup to see if there was any way around it so that he could help her.

“I’ve been good,” Robin said as he looked at her, he hated that this was how things were and it was all because of his father; Bob had tried everything to earn his son’s trust back but Robin wanted nothing to do with him anymore.

The former couple stood in awkward silence before Alisha hurried into the room and hugged Robin, she still didn't understand what had happened between her parents and it made her sad to see them like this.

“So I better be going,” Robin said as he moved to collect Noah, his heart lurched at the thought of leaving Paige behind; however he knew that there was no way back for them now.

Alisha looked at her father as he prepared dinner while she sat at the table with her brother and sister, she knew that he still loved her mother and yet they were still separated.

José Ras sighed as she moved to help her son, she could see that Robin was destroyed at losing Paige and she had a feeling that he would never recover from this and she hated her ex-husband for that.

“I’ll handle dinner…” José Ras said as she took over from her son, she knew that he was in no state of mind to look after the children; he was always like this after he had been to see Paige, he hated that she was living in that rundown flat while he had a warm home.

The Dutchman nodded his head, he had no strength in him to fight anymore; he padded out of the kitchen and started to head to his room ignoring his father as he had passed him.

Bob had refused to leave since Paige had moved out and even though Robin didn't speak to him, the Dutchman was trying hard to make things right for his son; however it was slowly becoming clear that there was nothing that he could do to correct the damage that he had made.

“Robin, are you not staying for dinner?” Bob asked as he tried to stop his son, however the footballer ignored him and headed him to his room to grieve; Bob was slowly seeing what his son had meant when he had said that his life isn’t worth living without Paige.

Bob watched as his son disappeared, he knew that if he didn't do something then his son wasn’t going to live long; his heart was breaking and it would one day kill him if he didn't do something soon, it was like he had lost the will to live.

“Don’t even think about it, you’ve done enough damage,” José Ras spat as Bob entered the kitchen, he looked at his ex-wife as she continued to make dinner for the children and herself; she had made it clear that she didn't want him there.

Bob sighed as he walked towards José Ras, she continued to work on the dinner; she refused to look at him after the damage that he had caused, he hadn't broken one heart but two and only now did he seem to care.

“What can I do to make this right? I had his best intentions at heart,” Bob said as he looked over at the children, he had caused so much suffering that what he had meant didn't seem to matter anymore; he had destroyed his son’s happiness for what he had wanted for him.

José Ras snorted as she looked at him, she didn't believe that for a moment and she never would; what he had done was for his own selfish reasons and now Robin had to live with the consequences.

“Don’t you see… you broke them apart over what you wanted, Paige would have never signed that ridiculous prenup if you hadn't of pressured her into it,” José Ras said as she glanced over at the children; she knew that she was speaking out of term but she had bottled it up for so long and now she was letting Bob know that this wasn’t okay.

Bob blinked speechless at her words, he had never expected her to say such a thing; he knew that she didn't agree with what he had done but he never expected this.

“You even used Paige’s parents dislike against her… you destroyed your own son’s happiness for what you wanted and for what? So that you could pretend for a moment that you were right, you bullied them into this and now it’s over you want to fix it,” José Ras ranted as she tried to calm herself down knowing that this wasn’t helping.

Paige looked around her flat and sighed, there was never a moment that she didn't regret giving Bob what he wanted; it had been the undoing of her relationship and now she was left to suffer.

The brunette knew that she was in trouble, she hadn't had the strength to tell Robin that there was something wrong and yet she knew that if she didn't then there was a chance that her children would be left motherless.

Paige moved to lie down as she felt the pain starting up again, she moaned softly knowing that this was going to be a hard night; she had gotten used to hiding her problems from Robin the last four weeks and she had a feeling that she would continue to do so.

Paige closed her eyes as she ignored the stabbing pain in her stomach, she knew that there was something very wrong with her but she didn't have time to go to the doctor’s; she knew that this was going to come and bite her in the ass if she didn't do something.

Blinking back tears, Paige wondered if this was karma for what she had done to Robin; she knew that he deserved better than her, he always had and with the prenup it had only confirmed her thoughts.

Paige moaned softly as she felt the pain starting to spread, she knew that she had to do something but she only had one person that she could turn to and she didn't want to trouble Robin with this.

Lying on the floor, Paige was silent as she contemplated her options; the pain was slowly getting worse and she knew that they were limited.

Carefully the brunette moved to collect her phone and called for help, she closed her eyes as she waited for Robin to answer his phone; she bit her lip as she felt her stomach pain getting worse.

“Hello?” Robin said as he answered the call however the moment that he spoke Paige blacked out, her head resting against her phone as Robin tried to get a response from the brunette.
