Y/N POV

I opened the letter from Campos Racing, I know this is so wrong and I shouldn't read the letter because it was my son's privacy. But I was desperate to figure out what is inside the letter. This was a matter about my son's future so I really need to find out if Campos Racing has sacked him after failing to win the championship last year. I opened the letter and started to read it......

After reading the letter, I couldn't believe what my son has achieved. He has go promoted to Formula 2 after one season in Formula 3. I knew he had the talent like his old man. I was extremely excited and happy for him and I need to tell Ethan about this as soon as possible. He was one step closer to his Formula 1 dream and I couldn't be a more proud father at that moment. Getting into my car in no time, I drove towards Sana's mother's place which was where Ethan was staying.

On the way to telling this good news to Ethan, I thought about my actions and how I treated Ethan in the past regarding his racing. Maybe I was too harsh on him and I was giving him too much pressure. I recalled his Formula 3 race weekend in Spain when I wasn't there to watch him, he was disappointed but he did so well, he won on his debut weekend which was a very proud moment for me. Maybe the problem was not at Ethan, the problem was with me. Giving him too much pressure caused him to turn in below par performances. I have pushed him too much in the past and that caused him to completely leave me. With that in mind, I promised myself to let Ethan do whatever he wanted in his Formula 2 season and not be too harsh on him. I mean he was so close to his Formula 1 dream.

I arrived at where Ethan was staying with Sana. I wasn't expecting much, Ethan probably is still mad at me and wouldn't want to see me. I rang the doorbell expecting Sana to open the door so I could tell her to pass the letter to Ethan and be on my way home. As I rang the doorbell, Ethan answered the door which made it very awkward for both of us. 

Ethan POV

I was chilling at home enjoying my winter break. My drive for next season still hasn't been sorted but I am sure that my dad would be sorting it out for me. I haven't really heard about my dad for a while which was making me a bit nervous about my future in motorsport. All my contact details for the teams was my dad which means my future depended on him. He was like my agent and I have just left him. This was a very big risk and I was getting paranoid about my future in motorsport, so much so that I was very close of taking matters into my own hand and email the teams myself. 

Suddenly, in the middle of my thoughts, I heard the doorbell rang. I have no idea who it was but as I went to the door and opened, it was dad. This has made stuff very awkward as I still don't know how to face him. I mean I have just shouted back at him when he was teaching me a lesson. I really expected him to be really mad at me but he didn't speak. We just stood there looking at each other not saying anything. After a while of awkward silence, my dad spoke up.

Y/N: Uhhh, Ethan a letter came and it was for you.

Ethan: Thanks dad, just give it to me.

Y/N: Sure. It was nice seeing you I guess. I'll be heading back home now.

Ethan: Nice seeing you too dad.

It was very awkward seeing my dad, I didn't know what to say. Thankfully he managed to open up a conversation and shortly left. However, he gave me a letter which was from Campos Racing. I wonder what it was about, and as I was opening it I realised the envelope has been opened before. I knew it, my dad has opened the envelope and read mail that was addressed to me. What a way to invade someone's privacy. Anyways, what's happened has happened and there was no time to get bogged down with who's read the letter before it got to me. I was desperate to read what's inside. I teared the envelope apart and started reading the letter.

After reading that letter, I jumped around in joy. Getting promoted into Formula 2 was a very big deal for me because it means I am one step closer to my Formula 1 dream. Even though I really hated the way my dad was harsh at me, I wouldn't be here without the help from him. My dad supported me through my junior category, he taught me a lot and corrected a lot of my mistakes in the past. I was really thankful that I had a dad like him, and thinking back, he was only being harsh on me because he wanted me to be successful. I really shouldn't be mad at him when he wanted me to be successful. I need to apologise to my dad for shouting back at him. Without further thinking, I head back to my house.

Knock Knock

Y/N: Ethan?

Ethan: Dad, I'm sorry.

I gave hugged my dad. I was really thankful to have a dad that have been supportive of my racing career so far. With that, I promised myself that I need to make it into Formula 1 no matter what. I need to make my dad proud.
