“I figured it made sense building me a fence,
building me a home, thinking I’d be strong there,
But I was a fool, playing by the rules.”
THE CRANE HOUSEHOLD, ALMOST AN HOUR LATER…

“Now where will I go? I can’t move in with Juliette until the divorce is settled. Maybe Dustin will let me stay at the headquarters while I find a place of my own. It should be only a night or two. Or three?” Robin thought, as he packed up, his brain spinning a mile a minute.

“Also, I could use a support system, if Dust and Judith will have me, of course.”

“But then there’s that guy, Gilon…. “, Robin paused to stretch. He felt edgy, even angry. It was no wonder, he was homeless… again. “Damn it, first it was my house in Oasis Landing, and now this one? All this time working for a comfortable life to end up with nothing, except for that stupid suitcase.”

“The worst is having to leave my girls not knowing if I’ll ever see them again. Ann could take them away from me, if she does, what will they think of me when they grow up? That I let them down, that I abandoned them like my parents did with me? That I’m repeating my own story?”

“I don’t want the mistakes I’ve made to affect them or cause any suffering to them. I don’t want to hurt Jul either with my personal and legal issues.”

“Jul… How I need you now! I’d like to see you, to hold you… to be with you. I’d run into your arms right now, but I’d only ruin everything by rushing things, like I always do”.

“When we’re finally together, I want it to be because there’s nothing between us anymore. Just now it wouldn’t be right, or fair to you. I’d just… drag you into my chaos, I have to fix the f*cking mess that is my life first.”

“Well, enough brooding and self-pity. If I am to keep my word, I must go ahead, one step at a time. I’ll finish packing first, then I’ll say goodbye to my girls, and last, if I muster the courage, I’ll call Dust for asylum, even if it’s just for tonight.”

“I’m sorry, Judith, I wouldn’t want to bother you on the eve of your wedding, but I really need a friend to talk to and that’s Dust. As for Gilon Mannin, I guess I’ll have to deal with him.”

Half an hour later, Robin had finished packing. He wasn’t carrying much, just a suitcase with a few clothes, his holo-computer, and a briefcase with all his important documents.

Some other time he would return for what he might be missing. And if Ann eventually left Aurora Skies, it would be easier for her to pick up the rest of her things like the workshop, the science station, and his car. Now came the hardest part, saying goodbye to his daughters….
