Chapter 243 - REUNION
"Condolence to you and your family." Jillyanna told Cayenne and pulled her in a hug. "Stay strong for your brothers. And don't hesitated to tell me if you need help."
"Thank you, Jill."
"How about Stefan? Where is that idiot?" Travis asked Cayenne while looking around the place to find his friend.
"He left last night to deal with some urgent matter. Don't tell him anything. I want to be the one who will tell him about this."? Cayenne told Travis. This was to avoid them telling Stefan of what happened and distracting him from his work. Even though they're married, she didn't want to burden him of her own matter. And besides, if he's not busy, Stefan would surely call him send or her a message. Or so she thought.
Jillyanna's family and friends came over as well. And Cayenne had said the same thing, telling them not to tell Stefan about it because she wanted to tell him personally.
Around seven in the evening, Manager Kim and Luna came.
"Ms. Kim, please don't tell Stefan about this yet. I want to tell him personally about this matter."
"Okay." Manager Kim replied while gently hugging Cayenne.
Luna also received the same words from Cayenne and she nodded her head. She understood it; when it comes to letting the person, you care about hear the words from your own mouth instead of hearing it from someone else. "Just remember that I am always here for you. Let me know if you need anything else."
"Thanks, Lulu."
Kath, who came over after class, came out with Kyle to go home. "Sis Yen, I will go home for now. I'll come back tomorrow to help you out."
"Thank you, Kath. Your presence is more than enough. Right now, my brother needs you the most and I hope you can comfort him. Luiz and I will be fine."
"Hn. I won't disappoint you." Kath waved her hand and bid farewell. She didn't want Kyle to leave his siblings during this time so, she asked her brother to send a driver to come and pick her up. "You don't need to send me home tonight." Kath commented. "My eldest brother sent someone to fetch me."
"I see." Kyle looked into the dark sky and tears fell on his face. He didn't want to cry but with Kath beside him, he didn't mind showing his weak side. "Babe, I won't be with you in the next few days. Don't sleep during class and don't skip any classes as well."
Kath knew that he was just making random excuse to hide the pain he was feeling but she understood. She hugged him and kissed his tears away. "It's my turn to stay with you. But since I won't be of much help in the funeral home, I will be a good student for you instead. I'll attend all our classes and make sure to take notes for you. I'll come to you after classes as well. If you want to talk to me, you know when our breaks are so, feel free to call me."
Kyle sobbed and hugged her back, letting her comfort him in a different way. Others would probably try to use some sugarcoated words just to soothe his pain but his girlfriend decided to study for him instead.
Kai's driver had been waiting for Kath so, she didn't linger for too long. "I'll come back tomorrow." She told her boyfriend again while waving her hand.
"Hn. I'll wait for you."
The next day, Celine and Jessie came and offered their condolences. Like everyone else who knew her relationship with Stefan, they were wondering why he didn't come. And Cayenne responded to them just like how she responded everyone else.
Luna also arrived with Ali, helping around to relieve Cayenne from stress.
Luiz's teachers and classmates also came. They brought so many foods for them and they talked with Luiz to at least, distract him from the pain of losing his mother.
And even though Cayenne had been treating him coldly, Arthur still came to offer his condolences. After all, he remained friends with Emerald. She didn't hold grudges towards him and she treated him kindly. Even though he used the woman to get close to Cayenne, he was also thankful to her. Emerald was his number one supporter when it comes to chasing Cayenne. And she didn't shoo him away even when Cayenne was already taken.
"Yenyen, I'm sorry to hear about what happened. I know that you're in pain and my words may not comfort you but, I hope you will stay strong. I'm pretty sure that auntie won't like to see you sad and devastated. But death isn't something you can be happy about so I understand the urge to cry. If you need a shoulder to lean on, I'm always here for you."
"Thank you, Arthur." Cayenne responded softly. Her voice was already horse from all the crying but even though she rested for several hours already, it wasn't back to normal yet. "Thank you for staying friends with my mother. I know that I've been unfair to you but I'm still thankful that you didn't treat her badly because of my attitude towards you."
"What's between us has nothing to do with auntie. I don't have the right to get angry to her."
They talked for quite a while and Cayenne was no longer that angry towards him. She had completely forgotten what Arthur said over a month ago.
Around eight in the evening when other people started leaving, a black Maserati arrived and stopped in the parking space in front of the funeral home. A man alighted from the driver seat and went to open the back seat where another man came out. He was wearing black pants, black suit, black shirt and a pair of black gloves. The only colorful thing on him was his long purplish – white hair.
He picked the flower he bought and asked his driver/secretary to bring it inside with him.
Cayenne was currently speaking to Kyle about something and Arthur was talking to Luiz. When Cayenne saw the new visitor, her eyes lit up. "Seiji, you are really back."
Arthur's face fell when he heard this name. He's the man that he never wanted to see again in his lifetime but here he was, standing in front of Cayenne.
