Chapter 904 - Finale (III)
"I'm really glad all of you could make it," Kyle said as he looked at the rest of them.
It may have been years ago when he had participated in the rock-climbing competition, and he had never gone back to Rock 5 Gym since then, they had kept in touch. He had invited them partly because he wanted to personally see how they were faring - especially Cathy, after getting involved due to the Kazuya incident.
He felt like he also owed them, a bit.
Cole, the leader of the group and owner of Rock 5 Gym, was there with his wife Sharon and their daughter, Cathy. With her, was her fiancé, Ken.
"Looks like you managed to catch her after all, huh Ken?" Kyle teased him.
Back in those days, Ken had been jealous of Cathy's interest in Kyle. He had initially tried to cause trouble with him, only to be given several face-slaps (not literal, of course) in the end.
Ken looked sheepish as he rubbed the back of his neck, then simply replied, "Yeah."
It had taken him a really, really long time to finally catch Cathy.
After the rock-climbing competition, and after finally stopping his animosity towards Kyle, he started wooing Cathy. However, she wasn't interested and he couldn't quite understand her obsession with her album of good-looking guys.
In frustration, he left to study and decided to just find another. After dating a few other girls and 'growing up', he found that his feelings for Cathy never did stop when he met her again.
As such, he tried to understand her better and now, they were finally together.
Cathy's eyes were glowing as she looked around, seeing the many guests.
She wondered if he was here.
Her saviour.
If she could see him one last time, she would be content.
The whole incident had truly caused a bit of a trauma with her, but whenever she thought of him, she calmed down.
She owed a lot to him but she had no way of thanking him.
So it had always been a regret in her life. When they got this invitation to Kyle's wedding, she was over the moon. Since he was part of Kyle's secret team, he would surely be here, right?
Ken noticed Cathy's distraction with her interest with looking at all the guests, and unlike before, it didn't bother him. He knew, she only liked to look but he was the one that ended up with her.
So, he just placed his hand on her waist and let her be.
Kyle talked to them for a bit longer before heading out to mingle again.
As he just bid his good-bye, he felt his leg being hugged. He reached down and picked the little girl up, asking, "Yanna, you shouldn't run off like that, okay?"
Kyle looked towards the couple that came their way and nodded at them, "Samantha."
"Kyle," she replied, "Congratulations."
Her husband, who was beside her, shook Kyle's hand before taking his daughter from Kyle's hands, "Sorry about that. She just seems to have a radar when it comes to you."
Kyle laughed.
Samantha's husband was the doctor who had treated her with her delusions. He was the perfect fit for her, really, for only he understood her obsession with Kyle and not resent Kyle for it.
It had taken a long time, and only after she was cured did he woo her.
Luckily for him, she had also fallen in love with him.
It had been a very difficult journey, however, for he was seen to have abused his position and power to subdue Samantha. He had even been called up to the ethics board for his behaviour.
It took some time for them to be convinced that Samantha had not been 'brainwashed' by the doctor, and that she was not 'replacing' her feelings for Kyle with him.
Kyle had helped in this regard, in getting expert opinion to evaluate the whole case. With that added testimony, Samantha could finally be free to love and be with the man that understood her deeply.
"Where's Kyle?" Kyle asked.
"He's with Dahlia, talking to the other kids," Samantha replied, pointing towards the area where the chocolate fountain was.
"Puppy love," scoffed Samantha's husband.
"Let them be," Samantha replied with a smile.
After Kay's marriage to Joseph was made known, more and more people were beginning to accept couples where the girl was older. It could be said that Kay had started a change in society's perception and acceptance for such a pairing.
"They're still too young," protested her husband.
Samantha smiled and hugged her husband's arm. Samantha was truly glad that her husband accepted her son as his own, and never shortchanged him.
"There's nothing wrong with it as long as we're there to guide them," Samantha argued, "And anyway, I doubt they would actually end up together. Like you said, they're too young. But if we stop them, they might get resentful."
Kyle didn't say a word, though he agreed with them.
One could never truly know when it comes to relationsh.i.p.s, and love. To say that one was too young to know love may be true in most cases, but it's not necessarily so. Childhood sweethearts can end up together and be the strongest couple ever, or they could break up and be the worst enemies ever.
They talked, they laughed and Kyle went to mingle again.

"You know, Sayuri," Kay said as Sayuri sat at the dresser while the hairstylist was making the final touches to her hair, "I have always wondered one thing."
"What is it?"
"Why do you like to show off your cleavage so much?" Kay asked.
Well, it wasn't that Sayuri was always wearing outfits that did so (unlike Jennifer Love-Hewitt who is well known for that, besides her acting), but when she did, it was rather eye-catching.
Even after having children, those twin peaks of hers were still firm and the cleavage was natural. It did not need a bra that was specially designed to lift up the b.r.e.a.s.t and bring it closer together to create that valley of death.
The hairstylist, upon hearing this, nearly choked and pulled the hair too tight.
Sayuri looked down at the points Kay was referring to and then she looked at Kay via the reflection in the mirror while replying with a smirk, "To get Kyle in the mood."
Kay snorted, "My brother? Kyle? Needing to get in the mood when it's you?"
"It's fun, seeing him stare and unable to touch … yet," Sayuri replied, "It sets the mood and well, interesting things can happen."
Like, having an impromptu romp in the most interesting and unlikely places.
"You're evil," Kay hissed, "I like. Make him suffer more."
The hairstylist, having finished, excused herself. The conversation was getting too heated, even for her. She couldn't imagine the idol of Country Tz was that … she fanned herself. She would come back later for the finishing touches but for now, she needed to get somewhere safe.
Sayuri admired the handiwork of the hairstylist, liking the way her hair fell over her shoulders in little ringlets.
Kay looked around and since no one was in the room anymore, she said, "You know, considering he was a woman before, he's awfully taken in by your b.o.o.b.s. He's worse than some men I know."
Sayuri laughed, "I asked him about that. Did the male hormones affect his preference that much? You know what was his answer?"
"What?"
"He always liked b.o.o.b.s even then, but he couldn't show it," Sayuri said, "Country M being as conservative as it was, a woman openly admiring another woman's boob would create havok."
Kay pursed her lips, "True. He is bis.e.x.u.a.l after all, even then. He just couldn't explore the other side of his likes."
"Exactly," Sayuri replied, "One's s.e.x.u.a.l preference isn't due to gender or physical attributes, after all. His soul remained the same."
She smiled, "I'm just glad he ended up with me and not Xing Han or another guy."
Kay replied, "Well, it isn't the gender, Sayuri. It's the person."
"Well, then I'm glad that I'm that person," Sayuri whispered.
"So am I, Sayuri," Kay replied, standing up and going behind Sayuri, "Thank you for loving my brother, marrying him and completing him."
