(BLU)
"And then we saw this giant Gundam robot on the street. It was amazing and we bought stuffs on that store too..." I was talking fast as I regal Mr.Akage and Mr.Gilbert about our trip around Tokyo yesterday.
"It looks like you had fun, Blu. That is great," Mr.Akage nodded in approval as he took a sip of his coffee. We are sitting around the dining table and having breakfast. Both Mr.Akage and Mr.Gilbert are already dressed to go out and visit Chairman Akage in the hospital.
"Can I come to the hospital too?" Robin asked.
"No," Mr.Akage shook his head decisively. "Your Ojiisan and I will discuss important issues about the company, the banks and his other properties that he will leave behind once he..." my guardian stopped talking but we can easily finish what he was about to say.
"When can I visit Ojiisan then?" Robin is whining.
"Tomorrow. I promise, you can visit and stay by his side for hours tomorrow." Mr.Akage said to console my boyfriend.
"And do you really have to be there too, Mr.Gilbert?" I asked Mr.Gilbert.
"I have to. Yes," Mr.Gilbert gave us apologetic looks. "But don't worry, I already instructed the kitchen staffs to accomodate the two of you in case you turned hungry. They will serve you well."
"You can both go out and explore more of Tokyo," Mr.Akage suggested. "Take Blu to the shopping district or techno hub."
"I'll think about it," Robin replied lamely. I think he had enough playing as my tourist guide and just want to visit his Ojiisan. Guess we'll be staying at this huge mansion the whole day.
After breakfast, Mr.Akage and Mr.Gilbert bid us goodbye. Once their car was out of the driveway, Robin stomped back inside the house. I followed him to the room we occupy together.
"Are you okay?" I asked Robin who laid down on the bed and closed his eyes.
"I think Uncle is hiding something from me," Robin mumbled.
I blinked in confusion. "How can you tell that he is hiding something from you?"
"Because I know my Uncle." Robin opened his eyes and stared up at the ceiling. "Since we landed here in Japan, more than half of the time...he is saying no to me. Denying me. Rejecting me. Preventing me from doing what I want. Uncle was never like that. He could say no to me, sure, but not on this scale. Not like this,"
"And because of that you think he is automatically hiding something from you?" I couldn't help to sound doubtful. I'm thinking, how spoiled is this kid to think that Mr.Akage saying no means he is automatically hiding something?
"Are you listening to me?" Robin sat up to look at me. "I said I know my Uncle. He has been acting strange since we got here. He doesn't want me in the hospital. He doesn't want me near my grandfather. He is hiding something," Robin sounded more sure now than when he first floated the idea.
"Well, even if that is true...we obviously have no idea what it is he is hiding from you. I mean, do you have any idea or can you guess what your uncle is hiding from us?" I asked, still not quite sure on his theory.
"No," Robin groaned before falling on the bed. "And that is the most frustrating part. I mean, I have millions of guesses, most of them ridiculous, but nothing concrete could come to my mind." He sighed loudly after saying that.
I sat on the foot of the bed. "Maybe your grandfather's condition is turning delicate and his last will is complicated," I took a shot at guessing.
Robin snorted. "Uncle already made sure to make us understand that Ojiisan is dying. That is not news to me. As for Ojiisan's last will, fuck I care about that. If Uncle will get everything, that'll be great. I know he will take care of me." In that, Robin is beyond confident.
