Lydia's POV
[THREE DAYS LATER...]
Every day, at every thought that I might encounter him at his house, I messaged and called his number. To no avail, of course. Things are starting to take a bad turn for me as my mind wouldn't stay at peace.
That day...I planned on confessing to him. I've never been my best. I was happy. But he, on the other hand just...vanished.
It's as if the earth had opened up beneath him and swallowed his entire existence. I couldn't wait any longer to enquire about him from the others. Maybe someone else must have been told about his sudden disappearance.
And so, I walk all the way to his training base to check up on their manager.
"Hello, I am Lydia White, the reporter from Hockey Dai—"
"Oh! Ms. White! It's been a long time since we met! Is there another interview soon? My boys are rocking the training! Maybe include my verbatim next time for the interview haha!" Their manager, as enthusiastic as ever, jokes on the call.
