New Life : A Second Chance

Chapter 903 - Finale (II)

Chapter 903 - Finale (II)

"Oh? I'm surprised you would know me," Keanu said with a smile.

After all, these were children while Keanu had not acted in any kids shows. Although he did act as Duke Caboom in Toy Story 4, it was an animated show. Thus, there was no way these kids would have recognised him just by his voice (that did sound completely different in the movie as well).

"Of course we do!" gushed Rory, "You're Keanu Reaves! You acted with my Daddy. You were ok."

Keanu laughed, "So you are Aurora. I have heard of you. You must be Alex?"

Alex stepped forward, nodding and put out his hand for a handshake, "Hello. Nice to meet you."

Keanu smiled and shook Alex's hand, noting the serious demeanour of the boy. Truly, Kyle's children indeed.

Alex then introduced Ziad and Fleur to Keanu, while Keanu introduced his girlfriend, Alexandra.

"Wow, you're Alex, too?" Fleur asked, her eyes wide, then turned to Alex, "Did Uncle Kyle name you after her?"

Alexandra smiled, saying, "A coincidence, I am sure."

"Keanu!!" shouted Kyle from afar, and rushed over with a big grin. The two of them gave hearty thumps on the back like cavemen.

"Kyle," Keanu said, "Congratulations. You spruced up well."

Kyle laughed, "I see you've met my kids and their friends."

"Daddy! Daddy! Don't I look like a princess?" Rory asked, twirling around.

Kyle reached down and picked her up, rubbing his nose on hers, saying, "Of course, Rory. Always."

Rory giggled and gave her father a big, wet kiss on his cheek, "You can put me down now, Daddy. I'm a big girl now."

"Ah," Kyle said, hitting himself on the forehead, "I forget sometimes. Forgive me?"

He looked at her with sad, doeful eyes and Rory giggled again, "Always."

Kyle gave her one kiss on the forehead and put her down. She grabbed Ziad's hand and pulled, saying, "Come on, Mummy said there's a chocolate fountain.??

"No eating, okay Rory? We don't want to mess up your dress before the ceremony," Kyle warned.

"We'll just look, I promise," Rory replied.

Alex turned to Keanu and Alexandra, saying before leaving, "Nice to meet you."

"Likewise," Keanu replied.

Fleur waved at them and followed Rory and Ziad slowly this time, as she didn't want to run into another person again. Alex matched his pace with hers so that she would not be alone.

The three a.d.u.l.ts watched them go, "You're very lucky."

Kyle smiled, "Yes I am. I am very blessed."

He turned to face them, "You know, the chalet I gave you to stay in is a bit further from everyone else for a reason. You can stay there as long as you like to recuperate."

"No, but thank you," Keanu said.

"The internet here is secure," Kyle told him, ignoring the refusal as he then looked at Alexandra, "You can access anything online but no one can trace it back to you here. Not that she'll be able to anyway. The phone lines are also monitored so any unregistered number will not get through."

Keanu looked at Kyle, slightly shocked.

Not just because of the set-up, but the fact that Kyle said it as if it was soemthing he knew they would appreciate it.

And they would.

For the past few months, Alexandra had been harassed online (and offline) by his stalker. The stalker was someone that was quite obsessed with him but it never really bothered him. However, the moment his relationship with Alexandra got out, his stalker started harassing her.

It got so bad that Alexandra just got a restraining order on her.

"You don't have to worry about anything," Kyle said, "You can order whatever food you want a day before and there is a staff here at all times. I have even arranged for a steward to be at your beck-and-call 24/7."

The offer was tempting but Keanu felt like he would be taking advantage of Kyle. This was far beyond what he would expect from anyone.

"Trust me," Kyle said, "It's nothing much as this is just the sort of things I place for myself and my family as well."

Kyle knew Keanu didn't like to bother people, so he wanted to assure him that the set-up here was just the basic run-of-the-mill for him. He never let his guard down and take things for granted.

He was just offering Keanu a little piece of peace, if he was willing to take it.

Alexandra put her hand on Keanu's arm, seeing him hesitate.

"What do you think?" he asked her.

"I think it's a good idea," Alexandra replied, "A break would be nice."

She looked about, "And the place is beautiful."

It appealed to her artistic soul.

"Then I thank you," Keanu said to Kyle.

"Meh, small matter," Kyle replied, playing it down, "I'm already getting all the publicity I need just by having you here."

Keanu shook his head and laughed at that.

He knew Kyle was joking.

What could he possibly give to Kyle? In terms of newsworthiness, that is. He was only an international movie star and an internet darling while Kyle?

Kyle was the golden boy of an entire country, and one that was highly respected worldwide. Rich, handsome, and have a beautiful family.

Kyle had to leave then, to entertain the other guests and Keanu watched him go.

Unlike other people who would pester him with questions about his private life, or even the dreaded question, 'when are you guys getting married', Kyle instead offered help without being asked.

"I can see why you're so attached to him," Alexandra said, "He has a pure soul."

"That, he does," Keanu replied.

Kyle was really busy going around from one person to another.

Each and every person that was here had very close ties with him and he could not neglect them. There was still an hour before the ceremony would begin and he was itching to have it start.

It was truly strange to be getting married - and being the groom instead of the bride.

Though he had transitioned into his 'guy' mode seamlessly, it didn't mean that there were times he didn't have 'flashbacks' as a woman.

More like, experiencing the same thing, but from the perspective of the other side.

One thing was for sure.

He may have loved being a woman and having kids, but he also loved being a man with Sayuri as his spouse. If one was to ask him right now, which gender he preferred, he would not be able to tell them.

All of that didn't matter.

His eyes lit up upon seeing another group that he hadn't seen for a long time.

"Hey guys!" Kyle came up to them, "I'm glad you could make it."

"What? Miss this?" Rylen replied with a wriggle of his eyebrows, "No way."

"Yeah," Rxel agreed, "We had to see the people who stole you and Kay from us."

Kyle smiled at the twins, who were now older but still looking as mischievous as they ever were when they had been bouldering together.

Kyle rolled his eyes, "You never even tried."

Both Rylen and Rxel sighed dramatically, saying together, "We should have … OW!."

Both rubbed their sore heads, courtesy of being hit there by their respective wife.

"Honey, we're joking!"

"Yeah," Kyle told them, "There's no way Kay and I would have been interested in this pair. They were too easy."

"Hey!" Rxel shouted, "That's not fair! You guys were just ... way too good."

They remembered the 'seducing' bet they had. Even now, they couldn't believe how easily they had fallen. The Smith twins were evil.

"What?" Kyle said, "At least you kept your chastity."

Evil indeed.
