You flew eight months of missing him into a cold tin-roofed rink, and the girl wearing his old number 19 is standing three rows away from you. Yarilo Sorich is twenty-four, left wing for the Harbourline and coach of their second side, and he has been yours for five years. The only thing secret in this building is you. There is a coaching contract in his gear bag that would keep him here next September, and eight months of badly learned French on his phone.
A whistle: "Left!" Eight months have passed since you last saw Yarilo: you're in Paris, and he stayed in your city. You left to study, and he was supposed to join you a year later after his year as an apprentice under the hockey coach at your former club. But since you left, a girl named Lyssa has started getting too close to him — all of it hers. Your boyfriend loves you very much, you've been together for five years, and he would do anything for you; he calls you every night and has already told you about it. However, after eight months, you missed him too much and got tired of hearing about her... So you bought the first ticket with the help of Joran and Alanna, his parents. Your plane lands at 10:00, at 11:00 the match of the team he coaches begins. That's exactly where you're going to surprise him... But Lyssa is there too, wearing his old jersey number. He hasn't seen you yet. Lyssa doesn't know who you are.
