Chapter 19

Three days later:

Kenna's POV

I was now getting ready for my second date with Tyler.

Things were moving so fast between us, but I didn't mind.

I mean, he's such an amazing guy.

And not to forget what an absolute hottie he is.

Mom and Danica forced me to wear a dress, and I don't even know why I agreed.

Something about this date feels special.

So, I get into the washroom of my hospital room and take off my hospital gown.

I wear a blue floral-printed dress that ends mid-thigh and my favorite pair of white Converse.

I look at my bald head in the mirror and think about what can be done.

Since I was too lazy to think about anything, I let it go.

I walked out of the washroom only to see mom and Danica looking at me with much fondness.

"What?" I ask, looking between mom and Danica.

"You look so gorgeous, Kenny. Let me snap a picture of you," mom says.

"Mom, this isn't prom," I say, rolling my eyes.

She laughs at this and snaps a picture of me anyway.

It's almost seven o'clock, and Tyler will be here anytime soon.

I unplug my phone from my charger and hear a knock on the door.

Finally.

"I'll get that," mom says, and hurries towards the door.

The door swings open to reveal Jason.

Okay, I honestly expected to see Tyler.

"Come in, Jason," mom says, making way for Jason.

He looks surprised when he sees me.

"Um, are you going somewhere, Kenna? You aren't in your hospital gown. I mean, wow, you look amazing," he says, looking at me thoroughly.

"Yeah, she's going out on a date," Danica says, and the color from Jason's face drains.

"Oh, with whom?" he manages to ask.

"With Tyler," mom says enthusiastically.

Jason's mouth falls open and then shuts it as soon as he realizes what happened.

Just then, there's a soft knock on the door, and seconds later, Tyler emerges.

"Oh, hey guys," he says, looking at everyone except me.

"Hello, my beautiful girl," he says, walking towards me and giving me a hug.

"Enjoy you two. I've got to go," Jason abruptly says before storming out of the room.

"What's up with him?" Tyler asks, raising his eyebrows at Danica.

"I don't know; he seemed disappointed about Kenna's date," she says.

I wonder why.

Tyler's expression turns stone-cold. His gaze flicks to the ground as he stares at it for a moment.

"I'll take care of that," he mumbles, but I heard him.

"It's okay. Let it go," I whisper as I walk up to him.

He looks at me with a stoic expression.

What if Tyler fires Jason?

I wouldn't want that to happen.
