(Kyle's POV)
I woke up at 7 am and completed my morning routine and then after taking a bath I had my breakfast which my dad had already prepared for both of us. Ever since he realized his mistake, he is trying to change himself and I am really happy for that.
"Dad." I said.
"Hmm..." He said while reading the newspaper.
"I'm going to work and I won't be able to have lunch with you, so don't wait for me." I said.
"Alright no worries." He said and smiled and I felt a bit guilty for lying as I am not going for work but to meet Monica. I nodded and left.
-------------------
I reached the clinic and went to the reception and asked the lady sitting there, "Excuse me? I have an appointment today. She checked on the computer and said, "Sir, you have to wait for a few minutes. We will call you when your turn comes."
I went and sat in the waiting hall and started thinking what should I tell her. I have so much to say but how should I start. She will be very angry at me for not replying to her calls and messages. I was thinking when a middle aged man came and asked, "Kyle Adams?"
"Yes?" I asked.
"Please go in." He said and my heart started hammering at the thought of meeting her face to face.
I went in and as soon as she saw me she was shocked as hell and whispered, "Kyle?"
"Hi" I said awkwardly and bowed a little.

(Monica's POV)
As soon as Kyle came to my cabin, my heart started beating fast, not out of happiness but out of worry. There was a strange agony on his face. A strange kind of emptiness. He looked so exhausted and broken.
"Kyle?" I whispered and he said "hi" awkwardly and bowed a little.
"Where were you?" I asked but he kept quiet. I sighed and gestured him to sit on the chair opposite to me.
"Are you alright?" I asked.
"I'm not. I-I'm sorry." He mumbled.
"For what?" I asked and he said, "for not responding to your calls and messages. I saw all your messages and calls but..." He paused for a moment and looked at me.
"But?" I asked but he remained quiet so I chuckled and held his hand saying, "I'm not angry on you if that's what you are worried about."
"Kyle, what's the matter? Are you just here to see me or is there anything else you want to talk about?" I asked.
"Actually both. I wanted to meet you and tell you so many things." He said.
"Then tell me what is the matter that you are looking so gloomy today." I said.
"Monica, can I trust you? Can I say everything to you?" He asked in a trembling voice, which made my heart churn badly and I said, "you can. You can trust me and tell me anything Kyle. Don't worry. I won't tell anyone. Not even my sister."
He chuckled bitterly and said, "I didn't mean that. You can tell whoever you want, just don't judge me and my family. Please." Hearing this, I felt a jolt in my heart and also became curious. Why would I judge you or your family Kyle? I thought.
"I won't." I said.
"My father, who never accepted me as his son, is dying of guilt and my mother, for whom I was always a burden, is dying of cancer." He said and broke down in front of me.
-------------------
(Maya's POV)
I was sitting on the couch playing lazy-lazy when suddenly the door burst opened loudly and my sister came in. "Woah!...geez! What the hell!" I said.
I was going to shout at her for slamming the door so loudly but stopped when I looked at her face. She looked so tired and sullen that instead of shouting at her I asked, "hey! Are you alright?"
"I am so selfish Maya. So selfish I AM. I am ashamed of myself." She said and broke into my arms.
"Shhh... it's okay. I'm here. It's okay." I said and my heart sank seeing her cry.
When she calmed down a bit, I asked her, "what's the matter?"
"Kyle came to my clinic today." She said.
"And?" I asked.
"He told me everything." She said.
"Everything, what?" I asked and she started telling me everything Kyle had told her.
-------------------
(Two hours later)
I felt very bad for Kyle after hearing about him. Poor guy, when he needed his parents, he didn't get their love and now after so many years, he met his family, but for what reason? To get his mother treated for cancer.
"I wanted to enter Kyle's life so that I could get all the information about Mayson through him and give it to you. But now I want to save him from myself. I don't want to be in his life because he will get nothing from me except pain." She said and paused for a moment and then continue speaking, "I feel so bad for him. He looked so miserable. Broken. Tormented."
"You like him. Don't you?." I asked and she was shocked.
"What do you mean?" She asked.
"Your intention to befriend him was wrong. Yes, it was. But not anymore because you have realized your mistake. You have not done anything wrong to him till now, then why are you getting so upset? You yourself know why you are doing all this? Monica, I never told you to drag Kyle into this matter. You yourself met him, befriended him and now you yourself are regretting it." I said and she was clearly confused by whatever I said. I sighed deeply and said, "you like him. You do like him, that's why you are feeling like this."
"Feeling like what?" She asked.
"Sad and confused." I said.
"And how do you know that?" She asked.
"Because my dear psychiatrist sister, I'm feeling the same way for your crush's best friend." I said and she smiled and asked, "Mayson?" I nodded and she asked, "So you're admitting that you like him."
"Don't know. But it is definitely known that there was no fault of him in whatever happened to our parents. He was only seven years old. At first I wanted to kill him and now I want to save him from all the evil in the world. I don't know why I feel this way, I just don't want any harm to come to him." I said.
