New Life : A Second Chance-Chapter 784 - Kays Thoughts

Kay found it difficult to keep Kyle's condition a secret, thus, she would leave for office earlier than normal and didn't come back to have dinner at home. She was unable to keep up normal appearances when she was just so worried.

Immersing herself in work was the only way.

On the third day, that familiar feeling tingled in the deepest part of her soul.

Was it? 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚

Really?

Could it be?

[Kyle?! Kyle?!] Kay called out desperately, her heart in her throat.

[Yeah, I'm here]

When Kay heard his voice, she burst out crying. It was a good thing she was in the office at that moment, for people would certainly panic upon seeing the state she was in.

The tears flowed down her face and she was sobbing so hard, it was really fortunate she was communicating with Kyle telepathically. She wouldn't be able to form any sentences at that moment.

[Oh my God, oh my God, Kyle. You're finally awake! I thought I felt something]

[What? Why? How long have I been out?]

Kay could hear the confusion in his voice, and she sniffed, wiping her eyes but the tears still kept flowing as she answered [Three days].

Kyle was so quiet that for a moment, Kay thought that Kyle had fallen unconscious again. However, that fear was quickly dispelled when Kyle shouted [WHAT?!].

Kay winced a bit. 𝒇𝚛e𝘦wℯ𝑏𝓃𝑜νℯ𝒍.co𝗺

Even at that distance, she felt the shock of his shout. He really was that surprise,d huh? Kay went on to explain to him that they (as in, she and Sayuri) kept the news of his coma from the family.

Kay even had the list of specialists that she was on standby, should Kyle not wake up in the next four days. The plane tickets and hotel accommodation had already been arranged and paid for, and she didn't mind burning those expenses.

It was far better to have spent it to secure their journey over, even if they didn't need to come in the end - rather than have them need to come but there was no tickets or hotels to put them up in.

They talked for a little bit more, and Kay discovered that the reason for Kyle's coma was just pure mental exhaustion. His mind was healing, so his body shut down.

She made it a point to tell Sifu about this. Kyle going into Zen mode was too dangerous.

For now, it had been three days.

What if he had been in a coma when the enemy came? What if he was too badly damaged by Zen mode that he would never wake up … or woke up a vegetable?

Kay restrained herself from nagging him.

When he fell silent, having fallen asleep, Kay picked up the phone and called up Sayuri.

"Hi Kay," came Sayuri's sweet, but extremely tired voice, "He's still in a coma."

Kay sniffed and told her that he was awake. She heard her sobs, and the relief in her voice. Kay thought about Sayuri, and she remembered this little ninja from school.

She hadn't thought much about Sayuri then, other than the fact that it was interesting to discover another ninja. A female one, at that.

The impression Sayuri left on her while they were schooling wasn't bad, but it wasn't so outstanding that she would have left much of an impression. It was only after they had graduated that Kay began to see her in a different light.

Perhaps, the time when her view changed when Sayuri was one of those people that Kyle reached out to, during the CEO fight. Kay was intrigued that Kyle had thought of her, and so, Kay started paying more attention to Sayuri.

She was rather impressed and satisfied by her.

It wasn't because Sayuri was beautiful … which she was, by the way. It wasn't even because she was capable and dependable, which she proved by standing by Kyle's side during the struggle.

It was the way Kyle seemed to soften whenever she was near.

Even though Kyle was with Sari at that time, Kay couldn't help but wish that it was Sayuri instead. Still, Kay didn't say a word to Kyle about her thoughts and feelings, for this was Kyle's choice.

Whoever Kyle chose, Kay would support.

So, while she wished it so, she didn't insist on it so.

When Kyle did break-up with Sari, Kay was also glad that Sayuri was around to help him through him. Even though he seemed oblivious to how much he seemed to rely on her. How he seemed to be more alive whenever she was around.

The break-up with Sari truly did break him, but Sayuri was the one that healed him.

Kay could see that.

And, she could see how much Sayuri cared for her brother.

"Take care of him," Kay said softly, the corner of her lips going up as she thought of Sayuri, "He needs you in his life, even though he doesn't realise it yet."

Kay heard her answer rather absent-mindedly, with an "Okay."

Kay's heart warmed at that. She was sure Sayuri was too distracted at that moment to really hear her, and that told Kay how much Sayuri loved her brother.

Her uneasiness settled, Kay thanked her before putting down the phone, and thought to her self, 'Sayuri was a good wife indeed.'

Kay tapped on the table, then got up to go to the 'infamous CEO bedroom' that you often read in novels. Really an essential place because it allows one to have a place to rest when they need to work throughout the night.

It wasn't really utlised because it's not really a place one would go to in the middle of the day just for a nap. There's just too much work and no time! For now, Kay just needed to wash her face and re-apply her make-up.

While Kay was washing up, she suddenly realised one thing.

It won't be long before Joseph had to go back.
