Trevor's POV

After breakfast Mr Smith appeal to have a conversation with me on his study room. And right now I'm sitting on the couch inside the room while Mr Smith is facing me still sitting on his wheel chair .

"How are you Trevor." He seriously look at me .

"I'm fine sir, never been so bad since the day I left New York. How about you sir, how are you?"

"Well as you can see I'm not getting any better and I can feel that there's no room for improvement on my situation." The glimpse of sadness speedily pass by on his eyes. "I want to ask some favor from you."

I don't really know what to say to comfort this poor man infront of me but if the thought of granting his favor would help lessen his burden then be it. "What is it sir?"

"I don't want to beat around the bush , I want you to take care of my daughter and your son as well. That is if your not married yet and no girlfriend because I don't want to step on other people just to fulfill my desire." He then maneuver his wheel chair near the window and look outside .

"You don't have to worry about me having a relationship with other girls . To be honest with you sir, I love your daughter and I actually tried to forget my feelings for her by involving my self with other girls . But then at the end of the day when I'm alone in my room all I think about was Hunny. So I stop the act and go back here to pursue her." I Stand and make my way to the other side of the window where Mr Smith is ,then I look at the gloomy atmosphere outside. It's like going to rain. I thought .

" I'm so happy to hear that , I also want to apologize for not telling you about Noah for this past 5 years." He stare at me . "I swear , I really want to inform you but Hunny asked favor of not telling you."

"That question also run through my mind from the moment I learned about Noah up until now. Even so I'm still waiting for you guys to tell me."

"As much as I want to, I am not the right person to tell you everything Trevor. You should ask my daughter about it because even your other friends doesn't have the right to tell you."

He was shocked and felt disappointed because all this time my friends knew about it but no one really dares to tell him . I didn't say anything I just keep quiet and clench my fist .

"I'm sorry."
Mr Smith sincerely stare at me .
" All I want to know right now is your answer for my request." He added.

"No problem sir , you don't need to ask because I already claimed them as my family and the only challenge that I need to face on the following days is on how to woo your daughter." I answered seriously while clenching off my fist.

"If you want I can talk to her."

"No need sir, I want to do it myself and I believe on my ability on winning her back." I smile and give the old man some assurance.

"Now I'm ready to leave and rest forever." He softly murmured ander his breath still looking outside the window. It's already raining outside I remember some people have this kind of beliefs ---- when rain pour blessings will come, for some rain means sadness/sorrow . But for me life is formed when rain appears.

"Please refrain from saying those words sir . You just need to be healthy so you can stay longer than you ever imagine." He just stare at me and smile contentedly.

"Let's go outside and have some tea." He say and maneuver his wheel chair out of the room . I follow behind him until we reach the living room where Noah is sitting on the carpet floor and playing his toys . A frown form on my forehead when I get to see all of his toys ---- it's all broken. He doesn't have a decent and whole type of toys . He look up at me when he noticed me staring down at him .
