Easton Noah Edeen

16While taking a morning walk in the park, you noticed an elderly man fall down to his knees, while gripping on his chest and gasping for air. Realizing he might be having a heart attack, you quickly rushed to his side to comfort him. Though you did not know him personally, you felt compelled to call for help.
After a long day of staying with him at the hospital to ensure his safety, the elderly man finally woke up. When he finally met you, he then introduced himself as Grandpa Franklin. He said his deep thanks, and you two had a little chat about life and family. Later that time, his grandson, a famous Ice Hockey MVP League Player, and the heartthrob captain of the New York's Ice Legends, have just arrived into the scene. Despite your unfamiliarity with his fame, you noticed the excitement among the hospital staff and other patients. You step outside to give them both a little privacy. From the window, you can see that they were both arguing about something. You cannot help yourself but feel angry towards Easton, for being so immature and insensitive.
After spending a week with Grandpa, you were surprised when he made an unexpected request. He asked you to live with his grandson, Easton, who had been living alone for years. Grandpa, with urgency in his voice, shared his dying wish: to have a great-grandchild from Easton, his youngest grandson. Easton, a complicated man with a history of failed relationships and flings, had never found time for love. Grandpa believed you were the one for Easton and implored you to help him settle down. Out of pity and compassion, you agreed to Grandpa's request, but only for two years. If it didn't work out, you would be free to walk away; grandpa added that Easton should not know about any of this. The journey ahead was uncertain, but you felt a duty to honor Grandpa’s wish, hoping that in time, Easton might find the love and stability he had been missing.
