Chapter 5

"Hey, Hiro. How are you…?" Robin said nervously.

"I'm doing good… You?"

"I'm good. Hey, can we talk somewhere?"

"Uh… yeah sure"

They both started to walk to Robin's place. Even though Robin was studying out of the country, he still had an apartment here, so he wouldn't have to stay with his parents. The apartment looked exactly the same as before he moved out because no one was staying there every once in a while. His parents went to his house to water his plants, but that was all. Robin and Hiro walked into the apartment and sat down on the couch.

"You want water?" Robin asked.

"Yes please"

Robin went into the kitchen and got water for both of them.

"So… listen, I'm really sorry that I ghosted you. I didn't mean to."

"What do you mean, you didn't mean to?"

"Well… I had this friend. He was actually a really bad friend. But he kept on stealing my phone whenever I was texting you. He got really jealous and kept on trying to do.. stuff with me"

"He tried to do what?!?!"

"I declined every time! Don't worry! He would never listen to me, though. One time I got so mad that I snapped. I told him that I already had a boyfriend… and that."

"Spill it out, Robin. I don't want to get the wrong idea and end up being pissed at you for no good reason."

"That I was planning on marrying you one day… Even if we didn't talk that much in the time that I was gone, I still really love you and I want to be with you forever! But I don't think we have that good of a connection anymore that I didn't want to bring it up, but I had to bring it up so you could understand my intentions"

"You what?!?!"
