Along the way, Robin received several dinner invitations from the Kings, all of which he politely declined.
At that moment, he just wanted to hurry back to the one ce that felt like his true home.
This home didn''t have to be huge or extravagant.
It only needed to have family waiting and caring for him. That was enough to make it more precious than anything else in the world.
It was the ce where you''d hear endless nagging when you set out on a journey.
It was the ce where there was always a door open when you returned.
There, you could let down your guard.
You could be free, without worry.
There, you could cry when you''re hurt,ugh when you''re happy, and know that someone would always care when you''re sad.
There, if you were injured or bleeding, you wouldn''t have to lick your wounds alone.
If you fell or failed, you wouldn''t feel hopeless, lost, or helpless.
That was home-the warm ce filled with the people closest to you.
Robin rolled down the window, and the cool breeze of the evening filled the car, ruffling his dark, tousled hair and softening his usually stern smile.
This was the joy of going home, the lightness of his body when he went home.
For the first time in twenty years, Robin felt an overwhelming urge to return home.
"Ferell, step on it!" Robin urged with a grin.
"Yes, sir!" Ferell replied cheerfully, elerating to nearly the maximum speed.
Ferell had been working with Robin for some time, but he''d never seen him this happy before.
The drive, usually taking half an hour, was done in ten minutes, and soon they arrived at their destination.

As Robin stood in front of the vi, looking at the warm lights shining inside and the people moving about, he felt a rush of warmth in his heart. The cheerful voices from within brought a smile to his face.
He stood there for a moment, lost in thought.
This was the home he had dreamed of so many times as a child-a warm room, a bright light, and a family waiting for his return.
He opened the door, and the soft glow of the interior filled his eyes.

"Robin, you''re home!" Renee called out as she spotted him and Ferell entering the living room. She rushed over to greet them. "Colonel Lockwood, let me get you some water."
"That''s okay, Ms. Renee. I''ll handle it," Ferell said quickly, already heading to the kitchen to prepare a drink for Robin.

"Mr. Ramsey!" Daphne and Rita scrambled to the ver to him.
"Robin, you''re back!" Brenda stood up and walked over to him.
"What are you ying? Why''d you all stop ying?" Robin asked, ncing at the deck of cards on the floor.
"We''re ying a card game!" Marrisaughed. "This afternoon, Renee and Marge taught us the game. It''s actually a lot of fun-we''ve been ying all afternoon."
"Robin, do you know how to y?" Brenda asked, hanging onto his arm.
Robin didn''t want to spoil their fun, so he shook his head with a grin. "No, I don''t. You guys continue, I''ll just watch."
"Well, good thing you don''t know," Rita muttered under her breath with a sly smile. "Ms. West, why don''t you join us?"
Daphne shook her head. "You y, I''ll just stay here with Mr. Ramsey and watch."
"You three go ahead," Robin said, pointing at the cards on the floor.
"Alright, let''s start over," Brenda said, pulling Rita and Marrisa back onto the floor.
"This hand, I''m the dealer!" Rita dered, tossing down a card. "A three!"
Marrisa looked at her hand and shook her head. "No thanks."
Brenda blinked in surprise at Marrisa''s indifferent expression. "Rita yed a three and you''re not taking it?"
"It''s too high a card for me," Marrisa replied, shaking her head. "Brenda, it''s your turn."
Brenda sighed, wondering how Marrisa could have such a terrible hand-she couldn''t even take a simple three.
She looked at Rita, then back at Marrisa, calcting her cards. Finally, she grit her teeth. "Four Queens!"
"What?!" Marrisa almost raised her hand to p Brenda "Rita ys a three and you respond with four Queens? Are you out of your mind?"

"How could I take that card 3 of diamonds? You would either. What do you expect from me?"
"Rita yed such a small card, and you didn''t want it. Should I have passed too?" Marrisa continued, unimpressed. "What would Rita, Renee, or Ms. West think? "And now that my brother is here, what would he think?"
Marrisa rolled her eyes. "It''s just a card game. Who cares?"
Brenda puffed out her chest, looking around proudly. "Mrs. Lori taught me this afternoon that you need my kind of attitude to win!
"I can crush Rita''s three with my four Queens! It''s all about the attitude!"
Marrisa shook her head helplessly. "Okay, okay, you''ve got attitude. You''re amazing"
Rita stared at the four Queens and thought for a moment. "I can''t match that. You go ahead.
Brenda, feeling smug, threw down a series of cards. "A straight flush!"
Rita and Marrisa stared, shaking their heads in disbelief
Brenda turned to Robin with a triumphant smile. "See? This is how you y the game! This is real energy! Hahaha!" Sheughed.
"Full house!" Rita yelled suddenly.
Robin, Renee, and Daphne stared in shock.
This wasn''t your typical card game-it was more like a battle of nerves!
Marrisa raised her hand without hesitation. "Pass."
Brenda scowled at Marrisa in displeased. "What kind of hand are you holding if you''re passing everything?"
Marrisa was about to lose it. "Brenda, Rita yed a full house! What do you think I can do with that? You try it!"
Brenda pouted. "No thanks."
Rita quietly smirked. "A four."
Marrisa raised an eyebrow and then threw down a full house. "Full house!"
"She yed a four, and you countered with a royal flush?" Brenda gaped at Marrisa''s bold move.
"That''s how I roll!" Marrisa shed a sly smile at Brenda, then turned to Robin and the others with a wink. "Right, Robin?"
Robin struggled to hold back hisughter, nodding seriously. "You''re impressive.
Rira eveing the roval flush shook her head. "I''ll nass"

Brenda froze. "Marrisa, what kind of crazy cards are you ying? When Ritaid down a three, why didn''t you throw out your four then? And now you''re ying card 4 of diamonds?" Marrisa shook her head grinning. "I just felt like it!"
"Are you kidding me?" Brenda nearly lost it. "Fine, fine, won''t y!"
Rita stared at the two of them,pletely confused. "wo."
Marrisa immediately responded with, "I win."
Everyone stared in shock. Marrisa''s cards were seriously great.
After a brief moment of stunned silence, Brenda couldn''t help but feel a little smug. "Well, well, Marrisa. Got many nice cards with you, huh?"
Marrisa proudly pounded her chest. "Not many, but I''ve got a lot of it! Haha! What are you going to do about it?"
Faced with such a powerful hand, Rita had no choice but to say, "I''ll pass."
Marrisa followed up with a pair of fours, causing the room to erupt.
Renee covered her mouth, almost bursting intoughter.
Brenda and Rita stared, utterly confused.
"Marrisa, I have to hand it to you. Did you just split three cards of 4 and y them like that?
"Rita yed a three, and you didn''t take it. Then, youid down a four, and now you''re ying a pair of fours? What is this? Are you having a personality disorder?" Marrisa nced back at Robin and Renee, smiling. "I do what I want."
"God dammit!" Brenda nearly burst into tears. "Marrisa, how are we even on the same side?"
Frustrated, sheid down a pair of twos. "I''ve only got one card left. Want it?"
Rita took a nce and shook her head. Brenda yed herst card, and the round ended in disappointment. "I pass."
Just as Brenda was about to y her final card and im victory, Marrisa raised her hand. "Wait!"
Brenda was bewildered, not knowing what wasing. Before she could speak, Marrisa threw down a string of cards. "Four cards of nines, here''s a bomb for you!"
Are you kidding me?!" Brenda felt like she might pass out. "Marrisa, we''re on the same team! Why are you bombing my hand when Rita''s the dealer?"
Marrisa grinned smugly. "Blowing it up would double the rewards. Double! Haha!"
Rita was dumbfounded by her wild moves.

Brenda deted like a balloon. "Alright, fine. Marrisa, you win, go ahead."
Marrisa stared at her cards for a long moment, weighing her options.
She nced at Brenda, then back at the cards, deep in thought.
Brenda was down to one card: if she yed a three, it would be over, and Marrisa would win.
Rita, too, prepared for the inevitable defeat.
Marrisa threw down a card. "I''ll y the three, Brenda, Go ahead, take your turn. Let''s see how good my card skills are."
Brenda, utterly defeated, mumbled, "I pass."
The room fell into an eerie silence.
"Not even a three?" Marrisa asked, shocked. "Seriously?"
Brenda, on the verge of tears, sighed. "I know it''s a three, but I just can''t y it!"
Marrisa, more than shocked, waspletely stunned. "You''re not going to y a three? Why?"
Brenda rolled her eyes. "What do you mean ''why?'' Myst card is a three! Go ahead and ce your card down. What is yourst card?
Marrisa stared at her in disbelief. "Brenda, I''m being honest, but myst card is also a three."
Brenda blinked,pletely baffled. "Wait, you have a pair of threes? Why didn''t you just y them together?"
Marrisa grinned, "I was letting you go first."
"Ugh... what?!" Brenda stared at Marrisa in horror. "O-oh my gosh! You''re amazing at this!"
"Pfft!" Daphne couldn''t hold it in any longer and burst outughing. "Hahaha! This is too funny, hahaha! I''m dying here!"
Marrisa sat there stunned for a moment, watching Daphneugh so hard she could barely breathe.
Brenda''s face was a picture of helpless.
