**Kyle's POV**I had never expected the question she just asked me. It's been three years now, and I've never been able to get another opportunity for revenge. It almost appeared I had forgotten what had brought me into the relationship in the first place. I only have Fancy an excuse not to go with her to her friend's wedding because I needed to find a proper way of getting my vengeance. Who would have thought that she'll bring up the matter of marriage in front of me? And hearing her say this made my blood boil, but then, I'll be damned to show her my furious expression. There's no way I'm letting her find out what I truly feel. “Fancy, I understand your plight, but I need time. I'm busy with things.”“But that's what you said last year when I asked you to come to my family's reunion for Christmas.”I should have known she wasn't going to let things go easily. “Alright. This Christmas, I'm coming with you. How about that?” I asked, staring at Fancy. I noticed a smile crept up he
**Kyle's POV***“Alright babe, just head to the kitchen, you'll find the wine bottle on the desk.”“Alright, I'll do so.” I immediately stood up from the dinner table to get the wine. Just as I arrived at the passage leading to the kitchen, I caught sight of the room opposite Fancy's. I remember that the last time I came, I discovered that Fancy's room was on the left and the room I'm staring at now was on the right. This simply means the owner of the room must be Fancy's mom. This can't be real. I mean, if this is the case, then I don't have to worry about how to get through to her. Immediately I looked behind me to observe the area. When I noticed the coast was clear, I used that as an opportunity to go into the room. I tiptoed towards the room and found the door ajar. I peeped in and discovered no one was in. After successfully getting in, I narrowed my eyes around the room. There ought to be something I can use against her. Just then. Even though it's been long since she worke
**Fancy's POV**I stood at the entrance of the party hall with my twin brother Jacob. It's a party for the victory of the hockey players in my school who won against their rivals. And God help! This will be my first party to attend in my entire life. My heart was beating quite fast and I can't seem to control how nervous I am. I was literally trembling with sweaty palms. “Fancy, relax… It's just a party, don't feel as though you're being carried to the abattoir for slaughter.”“Jacob, I think this is a bad idea. I never should have come with you," I said, looking around, nervously. “Jesus! Fancy, stop acting like a nerd for once, will you?” “But you of all people know that they hate me.”“Nobody hates you, it's just in your head. Can you stop feeling inferior about how you look?”I shook my head. Jacob doesn't understand a thing about what I'm going through right now. I mean, how can he when he's not in my class? Though we are twins, Jacob is ahead of me in class. He's one smart a
**Fancy's POV**“Here,” he stretched his hand towards me. At first I hesitated, just staring at his delicate hands. I was scared to give him my hands especially in the sorry state I was in. I feel so ashamed.“Come on,” he said calmly. When I noticed I was being looked at, I shyly stretched out my hand to him which he took and pulled me up gently. Everyone seemed to be under a freezing spell just watching what Kyle was doing. Suddenly he pulled the jacket he was wearing and wrapped it around my slightly torn cardigan. At that moment, my heart stopped for a brief second and began beating at a high speed. Did he just take out his jacket for me?"T...thank you,” I whispered, looking up at him for the first time. I held my breath when I saw his eyes. It was the most beautiful dark green eyes I've ever seen. I slowly took my gaze down to his thin lips which were dark pink in color. My goodness! How can he be so handsome!“Now listen, all of you. This party isn't for bullies, so if you
**Fancy's POV**“Strike a pose, Fancy,” the photographer instructed, and I placed a finger on my lips with my back leaned against the wall. My eyes were fixated on the camera, giving off a sexy look. “Good!” The photographer said aloud and took a few more shots of me. “Will that be all?” I asked after the shots were taken. “Yes, for now," he said, staring at the camera. I heaved a deep sigh and quickly walked out of the shooting area. I was pretty exhausted as I've been trying to get a good shot of me for the new online fashion show. "Fancy, I must say you're a gifted model. Did you realize that in the first year, you've become the most popular fashion model, with many endorsements from clothing and fashion companies?”I rolled my eyes as I took off the hair clip from my hair. To me, this was nothing new. I've been living with my mom for two years now. And in these two years, I know just how hard I've worked for myself just to come this far. No one knows what I've been through an
**Kyle's POV**“Son, when did the lawyer say I can leave? It's been years now, and it's traumatic.”Staring at my dad, I felt so dispirited. I was 11 years old when my dad was sent to prison which means he had spent ten years in here. The young and vibrant man I know had become so frail and weak. There are now wrinkles and lines on his face. His beards had overgrown, and he didn't look like he was being properly fed. But what breaks my heart most was what I'm about to tell him. “Dad, I have spoken to the lawyer, seeking the motion to reopen your case, but he said it'll be difficult to request for reopening since it's been a long time and there's no concrete evidence yet.”The expression on my dad's face held nothing but disappointment and weakness, and this broke my heart terribly. Whenever I came to prison to see him, thisway, it further fuels my thirst for revenge. I had said I wasn't going to shed a tear but seeing him this way made it impossible for me to control my tears. I l
**Fancy's POV **It was the weekend, and I'm still in Mexico. My mom had gone back to New York, but I had to stay behind since I still needed to check up on my dad and make sure that he was okay. While I was having a glass of wine at the balcony, my phone rang, and I immediately took out the phone from my pants pocket. To my greatest surprise, it was a call from Nora, a friend whom I rarely ever called since I left New York. Nora is my neighbor and a plus size just like me. We've been talking on social media but haven't had the opportunity to meet for a proper talk since I left here. “Hello, Mama.”“Oh, please don't call me that. How could you be so cruel, Fancy? You came back to Mexico and you didn't even border to call me.”“Oh my goodness! How did you know?” I asked with a gasp.“You don't actually think that there's anything that could be hidden in our neighborhood, do you? Well, I saw your brother earlier at the club, and he told me about your arrival.”“The club. He goes to th
**Fancy's POV**“What do you mean? Do you two know each other? Is that why he's coming over?” I asked, anxiously. “There you go again. I thought I told you to brace yourself? I don't understand why he's here either, but we are not that close so I can only guess one reason he's coming over and that is because of you.”I shook my head in denial. “That's highly impossible. There's no way he's here because of m-”“Hi, ladies,” his deep husky voice echoed behind me and whatever I wanted to say disappeared into thin flames. “Oh hi, Kyle. You're here.”At this point, my heart was beating fast, and I got confused if to just sit where I was or reply to his greetings. Just then, he showed up in front of me.“Good to see you again, Fancy.”I slowly looked up at his face and there, my heart skipped a thousand times. It was him I saw at the hospital. But seeing him now, looking more handsome than I had last seen him, seemed to have made me lose all of my senses. I just stared at him like a stat
