**Kyle's POV**“Ouch!”I shouted and winced in pain. “Careful doc, that's quite painful,” I complained. “This is why I warned you last month to go easy on the games. At this point, you might have your shoulder damaged for good, and you know what that means?”I raised a brow at the doctor. “what does it mean?” I asked. “It means you'll have to kiss your hockey career goodbye. I guess that's not what you want.”“Wait, is it that serious?”“It's more than serious. If only you had listened to me not to go for the games, it wouldn't be this bad.”“Fuck! I can't afford this now. I have an important game next month.”“Well, I'm afraid, Mr. Kyle, you might have to let this one go.”What is the doctor saying? There's no way I'm letting go. It's more important than life itself. It's highly important that I win this game. “I'm sorry. I'm not sure if I'll be able to do what you're asking me to do.”The doctor stared at me confused. “Kyle, I've been the one taking care of your shoulders since
**Fancy's POV**The moment we landed in Mexico, Nathan couldn't help glancing around. “Mom, is this Mexico?”“Of course, darling. This is Mexico. You're finally home, my darling!"Nathan smiled while peering around. “Will I be meeting grandma and grandpa soon?”“But of course, I bet they can't wait to see you!”Nathan giggled. What he didn't know is the fact that we were going to the hospital to visit his grandpa. I couldn't tell him earlier because I know he would have plenty of questions to ask, and honestly, I do not know how I'm going to answer those questions.Just as I came out from the airport arena, someone waved at me, giggling, “Fancy!” I smiled so brightly and called out, “Nora!” She rushed towards me and dove me in a tight, warm hug. “Oh, my God! It's been so long since I saw you. I missed you so much!” Nora squirmed in my arms as she hugged me. “I missed you too, best friend! It's so good to see you again.”“Me too.” Just as we were done having our little emotional enc
***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
