***Fancy's POV***We arrived at the hospital with a sleeping Nathan, since we can't leave him in the car. I couldn't help but feel anxious at the moment. "Fancy, breath please." I spun around to Nora with a worried gaze. "I'm trying, it's not easy Nora, I feel like I'm going to pass out from anxiety.""Hell no, you won't! You're only going to meet your parents, it's not rocket science, Fancy. Please, just for this moment, free yourself from the shackles of the past."I shut my eyes, took a deep breath then exhaled. Nora was right, it wasn't as though I was being carried to the slaughter house to be killed. After preparing myself, we all headed to my dad's hospital room. Reaching there, I knocked on the door lightly and I heard a familiar voice say, " come in."I froze at the door at once. “Mom?” I called in my thoughts and slowly took my gaze to Nora, wide eyed. "I honestly have no idea she'll be coming today," Nora whispered, raising her hands up in the air. I had thought I'd meet
***Fancy's POV***After hearing what my father was suffering from, I marched to the doctor's office to inquire more. "Doctor, Please tell me just how severe my father's illness is and how much it costs." It's not that I have that much with me, but I sincerely just want to know how I can help my father. "Miss Fancy, it's great to see you again. How long has it been?" "More than 7 years now," I said politely. I remember that it was this hospital my father was admitted in, when he had the car accident. "Fancy, I know what your worries are. Your father actually suffered aplastic anemia, and the only way to get him back on track is through a bone marrow transplant."I didn't bother breaking down anymore because my parents had told me earlier and I had cried my eyes out. What I want to know is how much it costs for it. My parents have no idea how much because they are only trying to get drugs that could sustain him for the time being. "This is heartbreaking, doctor, I must say. So, to
**Fancy's POV***The next day, I rushed to the hospital to see my dad. Though the money isn't complete, I plan to give the doctor the 40 thousand dollars which Nora had lent me. After making sure that my father was okay, I quickly rushed to the doctor's office to meet him. “Hi, doctor.”“Fancy, you're back.” “Yes,” I said and quickly placed the money envelope on his desk. “This is half of the payment. I know there's no rule over the amount to pay. But I'm certain that with this half, we'll be able to get things prepared for my dad. Am I wrong?” I asked impatiently. Actually, though, I didn't agree with Nora at first about meeting Kevin. But she convinced me I can actually ask him for help to pay him back by working for him if possible. After thinking about her sighed, I found it something worth doing. I plan to visit Kevin after paying the deposit. This way, my father's surgery will not be delayed. I took my gaze to the doctor, who only watched the envelope and slowly pushed it
**Kyle's POV**I was in my company trying to make arrangements for my trip in the coming days but I just couldn't focus. The fact that Fancy is around made me desperate. I kept wishing I could see her. But then I was scared to go to her mom's. Her old house had been occupied by a new tenant and I only found out two years ago. I had gone to her dad's place, though I only watched from afar, but she never came by. I went to her mom's quite a few times but never dared to show up at the door either. I was desperate to see her. There's a lot of things I want to apologize for. Since she wasn't around I decided to keep watch over the family. I had my personal investigator, Alex, bring me news about the family. And that was how I learnt about Mr. Logan's bone marrow surgery. I know if I went directly to them, they would surely chase me away. And that was the reason I had to send someone they don't know, and that happened to be my secretary. Just then, a knock on the door snapped me off my w
**Fancy's POV**“Fancy, please calm down. I know you're hurt, and you need to settle this once and for all, but please, friend, you need to think things through.”“Think things through? What is there to think? Don't you understand this is an insult to me? After what he did, he came back wanting to lend a hand and for what!”Nora took a deep breath and tried talking me out of going to Kyle's company. “Fancy, I know what he did was bad, but think about the big picture. Your dad truly needs this surgery. Going to his company in a rage, what do you actually plan to do? Tell him to take back his deposit?”Nora asked, and I swear I was boiling inside. She did not know about how I felt at all. “Fancy, please, I beg you with everything that's holy, try to calm down. Things might really get ugly for the family if you let your temper get the best part of you.”“But my family is not a charity case. How dare he treat me like one!” I breathed heavily but slowly calmed down. This is because as l
***Kyle's POV**I was in my office, pacing from one end to the next, when Ray rushed into my office. “Boss, sh…she's here!”When he informed me, I quickly got up from my chair. I actually wasn't expecting to see her just yet. I was still preparing my mind, but now that she's here, it's better to face my fears. “Boss, should I send her to your office, or you'll like to meet her in the visitor's meeting room?"I would have preferred the visitors room since there's much space, but knowing what Fancy is like when she's mad, I better not take her where the entire company could easily eavesdrop on our conversation. "Boss?" My secretary snapped me off my deep thoughts. "Just send her in here," I muttered, without looking at him. I looked around the office and it seemed to be in perfect order. I glanced at the table where tea was placed. It's been five years and I'll be seeing her for the first time. I don't know what to expect. I searched for sharp objects and thankfully there's none at
***Fancy's POV***After everything I said to him, I felt a little ease on my chest. It was only then I realized that I have never been free. This encounter must be something I have wanted but unknown to me. After I was done lashing out, I looked at him, and noticed he didn't say a word of protest, rather he had his head in a bow. Just how cruel can he be? Someone who is sorry for what they did would apologize despite what had been said, but he just kept mute. How daring of him!He must have thought that I was only ranting. He doesn't seem to be remorseful over what he did. How I hate him even more! My son Nathan, doesn't deserve such a cruel beast for a father. It is better off that my son never finds out what kind of a man his father is. He is the worst of them all! "Kyle Emerson, I promise to pay you back every dime, but remember, that doesn't mean you are absolved from your sin. For what you did to my family, I will forever hate you!" I lashed out before turning on my heels an
***Fancy's POV**“Fancy, what's wrong?” My mom asked, but I ran upstairs to my room as if I were being chased. “It's nothing to worry about, mom!” I said over my shoulders as I raced up the stairs. Of course, it is something more than just worrying about. I can't even imagine what Nathan may think if he were to lay eyes on those photos. God help me! As soon as I got into my room, I looked around for pictures probably scattered on the floor, but I saw none. I sharply took my gaze to the bed and saw Nathan laid on it, fast asleep. At that moment, I collapsed on the floor, panting. Looking at my son fast asleep, a smile crept up my face. Since there was no sign of breaking and entering, I guess he just looked around touching nothing. I took a glance at the closet where I kept the photo album and noticed that it was in a perfect order. Thank goodness! Now that I'm on it, I might as well get rid of all the photos before Nathan gets his hands on them. As I was rummaging through the cl
