Chapter 754 - Comforting Kyle

Kay held onto Kyle\'s arm, unable to believe that he was really here.

"I can\'t sit with the audience later," Kyle said apologetically, "So I came to see you first."

Kay understood. To her, it was enough knowing that he\'s here and that he would still be watching her from the shadows.

"Will I see you again after?" she asked hopefully.

Kyle looked at her regretfully, "I can\'t. You know how Mum will be like. She\'ll be stuck on you and would want to bring you for some celebratory dinner later."

Kay sighed.

It was true.

"So let\'s make this moment last for as long as possible!" Kay replied with a grin, not wanting to spoil this time between them with complaints.

The twins didn\'t need much. Just each other.

So Kay led him to a spot nearby, and they sat down, away from prying eyes and just talked. Although they had their mind-speech, it wasn\'t the same as actually being next to each other.

"Kay," Kyle said as they were getting up to head back to the waiting hall, "I have a huge favour to ask of you."

"Anything," Kay replied immediately.

He took a deep breath and then turned to look at Kay seriously in the eyes, "When it\'s time for my first death, I need you to be home. Take care of Mum and Dad, and … the company."

"Hah?!" Kay shouted, grabbing him by the arms, "You\'re not letting me follow you?!"

Kyle looked at her tenderly, then shook his head, "No, I can\'t. I need you here."

"Why does that sound like the typical way one says to another appease another when they don\'t want one to follow?" Kay asked him, narrowing her eyes at him, "I\'m not a five year old, you know."

Kyle sighed, "It\'s true though. Yes, I don\'t want you to go, but my request for you to say isn\'t just to appease you. I really do need you here to hold the fort. I can\'t trust anyone else."

"You have Dad!" Kay pointed out, "He\'s the current CEO. Why are you talking as if he\'s not going to be around?"

Kyle rubbed his head, thinking hard. It was true; Patrick was the CEO so why would Kay need to hold the fort?

Sighing deeply, he nodded his head, "You\'re right. Patrick - I mean, Dad, can handle it. I guess I\'m just being too ... "

Kyle didn\'t finish the sentence, but instead, looked into the distance.

"Just come after the death," Kyle said softly, "I don\'t think I can handle it if you\'re there before I .. she .. dies."

He turned to look at her, tilting his head and asked, "Does that make any sense?"

"No," Kay replied, "But it doesn\'t matter. Sometimes, there are things you just can\'t explain, but only feel. I\'ll come on the day … is that okay?"

Kyle gave out a breath of relief, glad for Kay\'s understanding.

"Thank you," he said, as he then handed her a couple of keys, "These are the keys to my apartment. I\'ve already given your name to the security, so you won\'t have a problem."

Kay smiled and nodded. Kyle then hugged her, kissed her forehead and said with a smile, "You look beautiful. Congratulations on graduating."

Kay\'s thoughts came back to the present and she looked at the calendar.

It was soon going to be time for her to be going to Country M. The tickets had been bought, and her heart was worried for her brother. However, he didn\'t give any indication at all that he was affected by his impending death day.

Kay began to suspect that the reason for this was right beside her brother all this time.

Was there something more?

Kay felt that she had a lot of spying to do now. With a sigh, she got back to work. There were a lot of things to do before the flight. She had already made up an excuse to her parents that she wanted to view the area that Kyle was checking out on. They didn\'t question much and were happy enough to let their kids handle the company.

Kay snorted at that.

The only reason why their parents were so carefree was because Kyle\'s performance had been so impressive that Patrick was happily taking his wife off on holidays. Well, to be fair, Patrick never did have time for himself or his family, so it was inevitable that he would go a bit crazy now.

Kay was cursing as she entered the apartment.

She had planned to come earlier than this, but unfortunately, the flight she was on had arrived late. It had been delayed due to bad weather, and so, here she was, only trudging into the apartment after Kyle had already left to see \'his\' death.

When she felt a sense of melancholy and despair, she knew her brother was facing one of the toughest thing in his life. She also knew that what she was feeling was but a drop in the ocean, for she could tell how muted it was. He had obviously shielded her from it, but such powerful feelings could not be completely muted - especially when he\'s so affected.

Kay didn\'t put up her shield, for she wanted to feel it. Wanted to understand the pain he was going through. She couldn\'t imagine what it was like, to see your own death.

So now, she waited for him, worried and scared but she held it in.

She made sure the apartment was bright so that he wouldn\'t be greeted with darkness.?When he walked through that door, looking utterly broken, Kay felt like her world was bleak as well. She held him tight, taking his sadness and his pain, giving him whatever comfort she could.

[I am here for you, brother]

She welcomed his tight hold on her, taking it all in as his trembling form sought comfort.
