| Chapter Nineteen Lucky and Nikolas forgot about the lake with Robin and Em. Laura talked the teens into just sticking around the house. Robin was in the kitchen with Laura when she asked. �Mrs. Spencer? What is going on?� she asked. Laura played the tape for her. Robin looked at Laura in shock. �I understand why you didn�t want us to go too far.� Robin said. �You might want to give this to Uncle Mac. He could do something about this.� �I asked Jason and he told me to do nothing right now. Caine�s son and Kermit are cops. They will be arriving late tonight. I will ask them what they think and if they say to turn it over then I will, but until then. Robin, please keep this between us. All Right?� Laura said. Robin agreed only because Jason said to keep it to themselves for awhile. Robin went to find Nikolas who was pushing Lu on the swing. �How are you doing?� she asked. �Laura played the tape?� he asked. �Yes.� �I don�t know. I just learned my uncle is my father and now I�m hiding at the Spencer�s home because it isn�t safe at my own. Robin, what would you do in my position?� he asked. �I was but unlike you I learned the truth at a young age. My grandmother raised me, and my mother acted as a family friend. I found all of this after being kidnapped and dropped off at my father�s front door.� Robin said. �You forgave them for lying?� Nikolas asked. �Yes. They did it to protect me and my father didn�t even know about me. Nikolas, parents do things that don�t seem right at the time, but the do have our best interest at heart. We just have to learn to accept that.� Robin told him. �I will try but it isn�t going to be easy. I understand why Laura lied. She told my about the threats my father made to her and that is what bothers me the most. He told me one thing and turned around and did something else.� Nikolas said. Robin didn�t know what to say. She just wrapped her arms around him and watched Lu play on the swing set. While Nikolas and Robin were talking, Lucky was trying to learn Caine�s lessons. He stood trying to figure out where Caine was standing by the sounds around him. Emily watched trying not to laugh. Caine was on one side and Lucky kept on picking the exact opposite. Finally, Lucky spoke up and said. �You think you can do this better. You try it.� Lucky asked Caine to blind fold Emily and see what she could do. Emily didn�t do any better. When she removed the blind fold she asked. �So that is what it is like to be you?� �No. I can�t do what you did and remove the problem to see again.� he said sadly. �I didn�t mean it that way Lucky. I just never thought about it before.� she said. �I know and neither did I until all of this. Em, I miss her and don�t know what to do about it,� he said. �You will for along time. I still miss my mother and part of me always will. I learned that you can�t change things. The only thing you can do is move on and that is hard sometimes. You will find a way Lucky. I know it. It is just going to take time. Lizzie meant a lot to you but don�t shut out everyone out, because when you�re ready. We might not be around,� she said. �I�ll try but give me time. It is just a little to soon for anything right now.� Lucky said. Caine watched the group of teens with a strange look on his face, but something caught his attention. Sonny and Jason pulled up in the Spencer�s driveway. Lucky asked Em. �Who is it?� �Sonny and Jason.� she said. Emily helped guide him to the driveway. Sonny watched the two with sad look on his face. Jason asked, �What�s wrong?� �The reality just hit me. Jason, I never thought this could happen to Lucky. Out of everything that could have happen. Lucky becoming blind never crossed my mind.� Sonny said. �Hi, Sonny. Jason. I guess I don�t have to ask what brings you here.� Lucky said coming closer. �Your mother called and told us about the tape. We just stopped by to see if everything is all right and wait for Caine�s help to arrive. We talked to your father and he wants to know what Kermit thinks before doing anything.� Sonny said heading into the house. He fought the impulse to help him up the steps, but Lucky moved really good with the help of the cane. Sonny noticed Caine watching him. I wonder what the old man thinks of me.� Sonny thought. �Luke said he was a little strange.� Chapter 20 Go back to Angel Lends a Helping Hand! |
