New Life : A Second Chance

Chapter 777 - Another Team?

Ever since then, Kitty has followed Lianne everywhere.

Joseph shrugged it off, saying that Lianne always had that effect on cats. She loved cats and somehow, cats gravitated towards her. There have been many times that Joseph saw feral cats docilely coming up to her and rubbing themselves on her leg, some even sitting on her foot, before leaving.

Their house had been full of cats, too.

All of them had disappeared when the house burned down, and all of them had been too distraught to actually think about their fates. Now, however, Joseph and Lianne wondered about what happened to their cats.

They hoped that their cats would have found a better home now and not be roaming the streets.

"What's the matter?" Kay asked, seeing how both of them suddenly looked so melancholy.

"Nothing," Joseph said, finishing his meal, then looked at his sister, "I just suddenly remembered about our cats."

"Same," Lianne whispered as she stroked Kitty with one hand and ate with the other.

[Kyle, you busy?] Kay called out hesitatingly.

She never knew if her brother would be 'getting it on' with Sayuri or

[I'm awake] Kyle replied, rubbing his eyes. Last night's activities had lasted for quite a while, so it was a small wonder he was just getting up now.

[Your kids were wondering what happened to their cats. Do you know?]

[Oh shit] Kyle cursed, getting up from the bed suddenly [I knew I forgot something]

Kyle flung his legs over the bed, when he felt a hand grab his b.u.t.t. He turned, to see the sleepy Sayuri, her eyes half-closed as she pinched him.

He noted that she wasn't really awake, but his movements had jolted part of her consciousness up. He leaned over, kissed her forehead and said softly, "Sleep. I'll be back in the afternoon."

"Mhm, okay," Sayuri mumbled, snuggling into the pillow, "Replenish those bullets, okay?"

Kyle raised an eyebrow, thinking Sayuri was rather cute when she talks in her sleep. She would never remember what she said, though, but Kyle would often tease her about it.

A part of him itched to take her there and then when she was half asleep like this. He suppressed that thought, but it turns out Kyle Jr was already rising in agreement. He laughed at himself and got up to get ready.

Leaving her a note, he left.

The next day, Kay came down after getting ready for work. She had already taken her breakfast much earlier and was now on the way out.

She saw that all of the kids - and cat - were at the dining table, having their breakfast.

She was amused to see how Kitty had attached herself to Lianne. Perhaps she really was the cat whisperer, just like what Joseph had said.

Coming to the table with a smile, she told them before leaving, "Kyle said he found all the cats and have rehomed them."

"That's great! Thank you, Kay," Joseph replied with a huge smile, not even wondering for a second how Kyle knew that all of the cats were found.

Lianne, who knew, was rather amused by the simple-mindedness of her brother. Then again, it was that quality that made him just bearable.

Kay, upon being hit by that smile of Joseph, was slightly stunned. Joseph had this really gorgeous smile, which lit up his face and made him appear even more handsome. You just want to go over and pinch those cheeks or hug him or something.

The funny thing was, such a smile would only appear when he's happy.

If he was to pose for a picture, his smile looked pretty awkward and like how Lianne once described it, "Like he needs to poop."

Of course, that type of smile was something Kay never did see for Joseph's smile was always blinding to her. Kay couldn't help but think that even though Kyle wasn't Joseph's biological parent, perhaps the similar characteristics transcended biology?

Kay left the house while shaking her head, feeling a bit fl.u.s.tered by having to be the recipient of that deadly smile once again. She also found herself not quite liking the thought that he would be showing such a smile to other people … okay, girls.

She sighed, smacking herself on the forehead while sitting in the car while muttering to herself not to be so ridiculous.

Rufus, her driver, didn't say a word not have a change in expression upon seeing this unusual behaviour from his boss.

Kay smiled thinking about Kyle's report about the cats.

Turns out, MIB had more uses than they had originally thought. Right now, 10 MIB agents were the new owners of a cat. Kyle didn't force them to take the cats, of course. He simply gave the chore to the HQ and they sent out the notice.

Lucka actually wanted some as well but the others successfully held him down (yes, literally) and stopped him from putting down his name and claiming some cats for himself.

Kay missed Zero and the others.

Growing up with them helping them and protecting them in the shadows was a bond that couldn't be broken - even if she had her own Team now. Kay was grateful for that. If it hadn't been for them, a lot of their work would have fallen through over the years.

Her Team was good as well, but the closeness and bond with Kyle's Team wasn't something that could be replicated.

Thinking of this, an idea formed in Kay's mind.

Lianne and Joseph … they should have some sort of team as well, shouldn't they? Nothing as detailed or extensive like her team, but they should have. Not to mention, the kids that Kyle and she, herself, would have in the future when they got married.

Once the idea started, she couldn't stop thinking about it. She started planning the type of team that would be good and the best strategy to pick them.

These thoughts occupied her mind throughout the journey.
