**Fancy's POV**After much persuasion from Kevin, I decided to go with him. And he was right and wrong at the same time. I loved hockey just because of one person, and now I don't feel that interested in Hockey anymore, all because of that same person. The reason Kevin knows about this was because he had the opportunity to go through my resume. Little did he know that ever since I became a model, I had stopped watching Hockey. The moment we arrived at the said place for the birthday party, I was shocked to see so many guests. “I thought he was just a player. You didn't tell me he's popular.”“Well, he's quite popular in Mexico and I think you might know him,” Kevin said with much excitement. I can't help but get a little confused. Wait a minute, it can't be what I'm thinking. I mean, he's not the only Hockey Player in Mexico. As for his popularity, I have no idea how much popularity he must have gotten these past two years. Though I'm well aware of the fact that he's quite popular
**Kyle's POV**We both watched the night sky in silence. Though I'm actually not used to viewing the stars, seeing her happy face while looking at the sky made me realize that it was cool. I was supposed to be gazing at the sky currently but was rather staring at her face. Her smile was so charming that I couldn't help but get drawn in. “Beautiful!” I muttered without realizing it. “What?” She asked, taking her gaze back at me. I opened my mouth but got confused about what to say. “You mean the night sky, right?” She asked, with her gaze back at the sky now. Hell no, I can't keep dragging this on. **Fancy's POV***“No, you.”The short words from Kyle made me take a glance towards him at once. I blinked, staring at him. My heart fluttered by his mere words. My goodness! Why did he have to look me in the eye at this moment? What does he stand to gain?Just then, I let out a slight cough and averted my gaze from the awkward silence we shared in that brief moment. “Fancy, look a
**Kyle's POV***It was bewildering enough that after the day I took her home, I found her at my birthday party. I was so sure that she wanted nothing to do with me, but seeing her in my party gave me some sort of excitement that I could barely describe. While attending to my guests, I kept searching for her with my gaze. I saw her talking and smiling with Kevin, which was such an annoying sight to behold. I can't deny that when I saw them this way, I felt a little out of place. I can't describe what that feeling was all about. Probably because she never gave me the opportunity to be friends with her, but she's talking freely to Kevin whom I know she only met recently. “Hey, what's up?” The voice of Jacob immediately made me snap away from my thoughts. “Huh? Nothing much.” I denied taking my gaze away from them. “Those two, they look like they are dating, don't you think?” Jacob asked, staring at the direction which I had stopped looking at. “You mean?”“I mean my sister and
**Fancy's POV***“You can pull up at that lane,” I instructed Kevin, and he immediately pulled up at the exact location I asked him to. Quickly, I unfastened my seatbelt. “Fancy, are you okay?”The sudden question from Kevin immediately made me raise my head up to look at him. “Yes, I'm okay. Anything the matter?”“I don't know how to describe it, but you seemed quite lost in thought and quiet. In fact, you've been so silent ever since we left Kyle's birthday party. Is anything the matter? You can share with me, I'm a good listener.”Instantly, I began to feel nervous. I had tried not to show the sour mood I was in, but little did I know that no matter how much I tried to hide it, it still found its way to light. “You don't have to worry about me. I'm actually doing okay,” I muttered, trying to fake a smile. Kevin searched my eyes with a creased brow, which made me hold my breath as if he were going to find out what was wrong with me the moment I breathed out. “Are you sure you
**Kyle's POV***I sat on the balcony with a file in hand and at the same time, hit my pen on the table. “Coach, is this all you need me to find out?”I looked up at Mr. Devon and smiled. "Yes, this is all, and you should quit calling me coach when we are alone, Mr. Devon. It sounds awkward.”Mr Devon smiled broadly. “I know. But that's what everyone calls you. It's not my fault you've become pretty popular. Your father will be proud of you if he finds out about how well you've been doing for yourself.”I stiffened at the mention of my father. “Oh my! I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to spoil your mood.”“No, you didn't. I know you care a lot for me, which is why you've been helping me out these past few years, am I wrong?”Devon heaved a deep sigh and walked closer to where I sat. He slowly placed his hand on my shoulders, “Kyle, ever since your father was jailed, I've seen you weak and helpless. More reason why I have chosen to help you all these years.”“Mr. Devon, you have no idea j
**Fancy's POV***# Two weeks later “And that would be all for today, ladies!” My dance instructor said, bidding us goodbye with a smile. Immediately, I collapsed on the floor, panting. Despite my modeling career, I've been taking dance lessons. For one, I love dancing, and secondly, it's also a part of the exercise I do to keep fit. I looked to my side where I found my water bottle. With a smile on my face, I reached out for it and gulped the content of the water inside down my throat. Just then, I heard my phone ring in my purse next to me. I reached for my bag and took out the phone. To my greatest surprise, it was a call from my mom.At this time of the day? This was surprising because she was supposed to be at work. While still sipping the water from the bottle, I answered the call. “Hey mom, what's up!”I heard silent sobs and sniffling, which made me freeze. What was that? “Mom, are you okay?”“Fancy, what should I do? I think I've lost, Simon?”Immediately, I spat out t
**Fancy's POV**“What?!” Immediately, I sat up straight from my bed but tried not to scream out in order not to wake my mom. I shook my head in disbelief while staring at the text. I looked at the time and it was 1am. What the hell? How can they terminate my contract at this point of the night, knowing I'll not be able to get to the company by this time. This is unbelievable. I can't believe this one bit! I got out of bed with care and went to the living room. My hands were shaking, and my thoughts were a mess. I haven't recovered from my mom's failed marriage, and now my contract is being terminated by the first company that hired me in New York. What the hell is going on? Why are things getting this messy? What could be the problem?I can't just sit here. I searched for their email on the company's website and left them a message, requesting that they provide me a detail of the reason my contract was being terminated. I tried thinking about what I must have done wrong to make
**Fancy's POV**# Two weeks laterA lot had happened within the span of two weeks. My mom sold her home where she lived with her husband. She even got laid off from work. I had tried to hide the impact of the scandal from her, but she saw the last message from the only company I work for. They terminated my contract and they boldly stated the reason. My mom collapsed when she saw this. I rushed her to the hospital where she got treated. After much deliberation, she decided that we both pack our things and return to Mexico. But I had wanted to find out who did this to us. Whoever it was had succeeded in destroying us, which isn't fair. Whoever did this to us should be caught and punished, but my mom wouldn't let that happen. She just wanted us to leave. We bought a small home in Mexico and we both lived together. I had earlier told my dad about what happened, and he was just as dumbstruck. He suggested that we all live together, but my mom wouldn't allow it. I understand her and I
