New Life : A Second Chance 406 Reactions

Patrick looked up upon hearing the clatter of the phone on the table.

"b.u.t.terfingers," he commented with a smile, seeing the shocked expression of his wife as she stared at the phone.

The phone was fine, as the height it fell wasn't that high. The shocked expression on his wife's face, however, made him extremely amused. It's not like she had never dropped her phone before. In fact, all of her phones had to be replaced because she always dropped them.

"Patrick," she said, turning to him, her face deathly pale. 

Upon seeing that, he was shocked and now, was worried. 

"What is it?" he asked quickly, grabbing her hand, "What happened?"

"Kyle ..." she began and Patrick panicked, standing up.

"What? What happened? We're going there ... where are they now??!"

"Patrick, Patrick," Delilah said, pulling his hand and making him sit down, "It's ... well, look at this."

She showed him her phone, and taking it, his eyes went wide open then narrowed. He let go of Delilah's hand and studied the picture. He zoomed it in, staring and then sighed, putting down the phone.

"Country I, huh?" he muttered, "He had better have used protection."

"PATRICK!" Delilah gasped.

He looked at her, perplexed, "What?"

"How .. how could ..." Delilah stuttered.

"He's a 15-year-old boy, away from home and unsupervised, in a land full of beauties who are most likely throwing themselves at him," Patrick said, "I'd be thinking something is definitely wrong with him if nothing happened."

"But .. but ..." Delilah stammered, unable to take it in. Her baby couldn't have ... could he?

Though Patrick appeared nonchalant over it all, his mind was actually reeling. 

Kyle had always been in control and never stepped out of line. He had been worried about Kyle being unable to handle failure since he had never failed before.

However, Patrick realised that he had forgotten one small detail about Kyle. Well, it's not that he forgot but rather, since Kyle always acted matured, one tended to forget it.

Kyle is a teenage boy. He may never act like one but he certainly was one. If there was one thing Patrick knew, is that teenage boys were always h.o.r.n.y. Girls would call them perverts, or that they only think with their third leg, but the fact of the matter is, that's just how they were made.

The teenage years is the time when the hormones rage the most and guys have it tough, holding that at bay. Some failed miserably, some struggled and some were fine. Kyle had never shown any problems in that aspect - so much so that Patrick felt Kyle was abnormal.

Hence, the ultimatum for him to choose a bride by 17 years old. He had actually wanted Kyle to think of girls in that way. 

Now, though ....

If that hickey was any indication, it meant that Kyle had already started going down that path. Patrick had always thought he'd be around to guide and advice Kyle when it happened. He was already preparing himself when he came of age next year.

Again, the unexpected happened.

Rather, Patrick hadn't thought far enough. Different countries had different ages of consent. Country I was one and thus, society's thinking was much different there. They were more open and daring about s.e.xual matters from a young age.

Luckily, the age of consent in Country M is 17, so Kyle wouldn't be crossing the line there now, would he?

Patrick's heart went cold.

If it had been the 'old' Kyle, Patrick would not have any doubt. Kyle would never do anything against the law or get into trouble. And just because the law stated age of consent is 17, if both were below age and willing - would they really care about the law?

Kyle is promoting a film. He is going to be famous. Even without that, he was good looking and young. Even Patrick wasn't blind to Kyle's charisma. Can he really be sure that Kyle wouldn't go overboard?

Thinking about how Kyle always seemed to attract women, even when he was so young, made Patrick gulp. 

Perhaps he ought to find a reason to go to Country M. Just in case.

Sayuri looked at the latest picture on Kyle's Insta and was impressed.

She had guessed that he had a fit body, but what she saw in that picture went beyond her wildest imagination. 

Every muscle was well-defined, without a single ounce of fat on that perfect body.

The way those six-pack could clearly be seen outlined on his abdomen was a result of strict discipline and dedication. Achieving such taut and tight muscles was not an easy feat. 

People only saw the results, but Sayuri knew very well the amount of work taken to achieve those results. 

He may have been born with that handsome face, but that body was achieved through sheer, hard work. Even his b.u.t.t was perfect. It was round but not flabby, tight but not muscular.

From this, Sayuri felt that Kyle knew just how much exercise to do so that he achieved the muscle without too much ma.s.s, so he didn't have those huge, hard muscles of professional body-builders. 

Everything was just right.

Sayuri was really glad that Kyle was her mission.

Not only did he manage to shatter her having all these horrible pre-conceived prejudices, but he was also a s.h.i.+ning example of working hard and discipline. He was perfect inside and out.

Sayuri thought idly that whoever ended up with Kyle would be one lucky woman indeed.

As for the hickey? Sayuri saw it and completely ignored it. She wasn't bothered by it and it was not of any significance. 

After all, he had gone out on a date - obviously with someone he liked. With such mutual attraction, wasn't it obvious what would happen? At the very least, they would be sharing a kiss, right?

What she found more interesting was his perfect physique and the work that went into it.

A smile formed on Sayuri's face unknowingly.
