New Life : A Second Chance

Joseph's mind reeled.

The moment he said 'okay', everything started moving quite quickly.

Kay told him to just pack his essentials like phone and charger. Only one change of clothes was needed, just in case.

Even his sister, who was the fussy one, came out all ready with her backpack and Ren in her arms. Her eyes were still rather dopey-looking, like she had just woken up. She was even holding on to Kyle's hand, something she only did with Mama.

What was happening?

He stood there, his eyes confused and his mouth slightly open in shock.

Lianne stood there, watching her brother through sleepy eyes, thinking he was really very dopey.

When Mama came to wake her up, she had been a bit confused. Mama explained that he was going to get the people who were responsible for her death and they needed to go somewhere safe.

Although she was grumpy for having being awoken, Mama's words settled her mind.

She rubbed her eyes and held on to his hand. She looked up and saw the young, handsome and strong man beside her.

It was nice to have Mama back, even if she was now a 'he'.

It was a pity Mama was the handsome type rather than the pretty type.

She liked pretty boys with long legs.

Ah well, this was good enough.

Kyle watched as the different reaction his two kids were having at the sudden move, and hid a smile.

[Have you told Mum and Dad?] Kay asked Kyle as she made sure everyone was ready.

[Yes] Kyle replied [They're under the impression that they are kids I saved and want to give a treat to help them deal with their mother's passing]

[Noted]

[Lianne can stay in my room] Kyle said [As for Joseph, I've had the gameroom modified to be a bedroom so he can stay there]

Kay laughed a bit [Soon, Mum and Dad are going to wonder whether their house is becoming a hotel. First, Dahlia. Then Kitty. Now, these two]

[Well, with them around, it eases the pressure of Mum and Dad demanding grandkids, I would think?]

[You wish] Kay scoffed [Dahlia and Kitty miss you, by the way]

Kyle sighed, as he thought about that toddler he saved way back at the mall. She was 8 years old now, only 3 years younger than his daughter.

[Please tell Lianne about Dahlia] Kyle said [I don't want her to misunderstand. Dahlia can be a bit clingy]

[A bit?]

Kay couldn't help but start laughing, causing the two kids to look at her strangely. She waved her hand in front of her face, saying, "Sorry, sorry. I just thought of something funny."

"We're just waiting for the bodyguards and then we'll leave," Kay told them with a smile.

"Bodyguards?!" Joseph exclaimed, his eyes wide.

"Yes," Kyle replied, "Our identity is a bit sensitive, so we need to have protection all the time. Once back home, it'll be better because you'll be staying with our parents. The security is tight at the house, so you're free to go anywhere and use anything."

"Yeah, you'll probably like the bunker, come to think of it," Kay said, reminiscing the old days.

"There's plenty of stuff to do," Kyle agreed, "Swimming and gaming, to name a few. Oh yes. I've had them fit a wide-screen tv connected to Netflix in your room as well, Joseph."

Joseph gulped and turned to Kay, "You weren't kidding when you said this would be a vacation. Your place sounds better than a 5 star hotel."

"Naturally," Kay answered.

"They are here," Kyle said, letting go of Lianne's hand and opening the door.

"Sir," Zero said, clicking his heels as he saw Kyle was the one that opened the door.

He had come personally for this, as he felt delegating the duties of escort to another team would not do.

After all, these were the two kids that Sir had been monitoring ever since he could remember. They had special identities to Sir, and although they had never been told what it was, all of them viewed the kids as ones to be protected with their lives.

"You're all here?" Kyle said in surprise, seeing the whole team there.

He led them in and introduced his Team to his kids for the first time.

"Lianne, Joseph," Kyle said, "These are my Elite Team. They'll make sure you will reach the airport safely. Another Team will be waiting for you at Country Tz."

Zero and the others introduced themselves and gave a slight bow, causing Joseph's wide eyes to go wider.

"This is so cool," he said under his breath, "It's like some movie."

Lianne looked up at Kyle and tugged at the bottom of his shirt. Kyle went down on his knees and she whispered in his ear, "Be careful, Mama."

Kyle nodded and walked with them until they reached the car.

He hugged them all, making sure they entered into the bulletproof car safely.

The moment they left and were out of sight, his entire demeanor changed.

Sayuri, who had been beside him silently, tilted her head and asked, "Can I help?"

Kyle gave a small smile, grabbed her by the waist and gave her a peck on the lips.

"No, the Team can handle it," Kyle said as he watched two cars following Kay and the kids,

"We can't show our hands yet. Let them think of us as useless rich kids playing around."

"Oh?" Sayuri said, putting her arms around his neck, her fingers playing with his hair, "Useless, horny rich kids?"

Kyle brought his head down closer, saying, "You're really an incorrigible flirt, aren't you?"

"Hazards of the profession," Sayuri said, shrugging, "Though it's really easy with you."

Kyle's eyes narrowed a bit at that, as he thought of the many missions Sayuri must have gone on. His honey trap missions wouldn't be close to the missions she had done before.

He found he didn't like it.
