Kevin surprised his parents when he entered into the dining room. They were eating dinner and as it seemed, they didn't expect Kevin to arrive that night .Her mother gave him a loving hug and her father gave him a pat on the shoulder. "Kevin what are you doing here?"
"Surprised?"
"Very." his mother kissed his cheek. She invited him to sit and take dinner. She served him mashed potatoes, salad and chicken. The blue ranger smiled and began eating, while his parents decided to start a conversation.
"You came earlier than we thought" Her mother said, placing a napking next to his plate.
"Things got better." Kevin said "Everything is better now."
His father smiled "It's good, Kevin. How's Helena's daughter?"
"Much better" Kevin smiled. "At first it was hard but then she understood."
"That's good. We were worried" Her mother told him. "But anyways, she shouldn't do that Kevin. It could be worst and she could have died or …"
"Mom, I know" Kevin chuckled. "We told her that. We scolded her. Don't worry"
"But she's fine after all, and that the important thing" His father added.
Kevin's mother and he nodded their heads. They knew that. And they knew Emily knew. Now they were enjoying a family night and Kevin told them everything that happened. Since he arrived to the farm until he left the Shiba house. He talked about Mia, Antonio, Mike, Jayden, Ji and Emily was on the top of the conversation. He said about what his friends would do or not do, too. When the conversation ended, his parents told him about their lives too.
His father said about how Serena's funeral had been and how devastated Emily's parents were. And her mother was saying any idea she had in mind. Because of the recent events about Emily's family, she kept saying how important family was, just as much as to keep good relationship with each other.
When Kevin knew every detail about Emily's family from his father, he could understand them a little more. Because at first he was angry with what they did, leaving Emily alone, but now everything seemed more reasonable. Even his parents said they agreed with Helena's and Derek's actions-Emily's parents. Well, not so sure at all but they understood them.
Kevin got up from the chair and went to his room. He installed him, changed on his pajamas and climbed on his bed to rest. He let out a deep sighed, took his iPod on and started to listen to music. When he was more relax a knocked on the door made him to stop the music. His father walked in on silence.
He sat on Kevin's bed, touched his feet and squeezed them. The blue ranger put his iPod on the night table and smiled to his father curiously. "Dad?"
"Kevin" his father answered.
"What are you doing here?"
"I thought you wouldn't mind."
"No. no… but… well you're here for a reason, aren't you? You have that look."
"What look?" Kevin's father chuckled and tried to make a silly face making Kevin laugh.
"That look you use to give me when you want to talk about something."
And he wasn't wrong. His father wanted to talk about something. "Kevin, is there anything you want to talk about?"
Kevin frowned "No, dad. Why?"
"Are you sure?"
The blue ranger sighed. He wasn't sure about if he wanted to talk about it. "Well," he scratched the back of his neck. "Maybe there is something but I'm not sure and…"
"It's Mia, isn't it?"
Kevin's jaw dropped. "How did you know?"
"I know you, Kev. More than you think."
Kevin nodded his head and sat next to his father. "Dad, what should I do? I think, no, I know I like her but, you know, we haven't spent so much time together. Well we have, living in the Shiba House, but it wasn't as if we were there to establish a relationship. But when I'm close to her I feel… I feel different, and I feel like if I've known her for years. She is smart, beautiful, kind, friendly, charismatic…"
His father laughed. "Kevin, and you still doubt it? What do you mean when you say 'what should I do'?"
"That, father." Kevin stretched his arms. "I don't know, I'm confused."
"Kevin, you're a great guy. You're a good person. Why are you confused?"
The blue ranger dropped himself back on the bed. He put his hands on his head. "Oh, man!"
" Kevin come on, what are you doing? You need to tell her. Say what you think and how you feel about her. You wouldn't do anything bad."
"But what if I scare her, uh? If she hits me or slams the door on my face… I can't let that friendship go! I need to be focus on…"
"Kevin, stop. Don't be silly. You're making a storm on a glass of water. You don't know how she thinks, do you? Because if you knew, you wouldn't be doing this rampage. Are you in love or not?"
Kevin shrugged his shoulders hopelessly. "Yeah, I guess."
"Give a real answer, Kevin."
He rolled his eyes "Yes dad, I'm in love, happy?"
"I won't be happy until you give the first step."
"Dad, but what if she doesn't love me back? I will screw up, I'm sure of it."
"Are you a mind reader or something else out of a power ranger?" his father asked him.
"No."
"Well then, what's the problem Kevin? You will lose if you don't take the risk. Everyone who doesn't risk always lose."
"Dad but if I tell her and she doesn't love me…"
"Here we go again" His father rolled his eyes "Kevin, do you think your mother was easy? Do you think she said yes as fast as I told her that I loved her? Trust me Kevin, if I have your mother it's because I left behind everything that made me think the worst. I told myself if I wanted something I needed to fight for it. You wanted to destroy Xandred right? , you fought and you won. Now, you're telling me you're afraid of a girl?"
"She's not just a girl. She's Mia. She's my friend and, ahh!" Kevin growled covering himself with the sheets. "I don't know what to do dad, please help me!"
His father got up and said to Kevin . "You want my best advice? Don't be a coward, son."
Kevin let out a groan. He came out from the sheets and looked to his father "Dad... and the coach let me come back again."
