New Life : A Second Chance
Chapter 282 - Shazam!

Kyle went out at 5.30am to jog and get some breakfast. Even though they were in the middle of the city, there weren't many people yet at that time.

Kyle normally didn't jog as he attracted too much attention but he felt the need today. He just wanted to feel the air on his face and just run.

He figured that there wouldn't be much of a problem this time around since working hours were 9am. The crowd should only be turning up around 7am or so.

Kyle put on his tights that showcased his long, lean legs and shorts. The latter was needed to hide Kyle Jr, though it didn't do much to downplay his nice behind. He grabbed his quick dry fitness T-shirt that clung to his body like a second skin, grabbed his sneakers and went out.

He knew that Xing Han would only greet the world at 10am so he had plenty of time. He took out his phone to check out the routes to take, taking note of the shops that were open for breakfast. He was busy looking down at his phone while ignoring the people around him looking appreciatively at him - okay, they were staring.

Kyle sighed inwardly at this and continued to pretend not to notice anything as he fiddled with his phone.

He couldn't afford to block out his senses as he must always be on alert. Kay letting slip that she had some good pictures also reminded him that he can't be complacent at home either. He knew she wouldn't put bugs in the bedroom or bathroom but there were definitely some elsewhere. There's also that hacking skill of hers.

She'd probably taking pics of him right now as well. Kyle looked up at the security cameras and stared at it.

[You're enjoying this, aren't you?] Kyle said, on a hunch.

[Very much so] Kay replied [You're being very helpful in always wearing good things to show yourself off]

[Excuse me] Kyle said indignantly [This is the perfect outfit for jogging. The quick dry-fit material is cooling and I don't feel the icky sweat. The tights help with blood circulation]

[Yes, brother] Kay said with a giggle [Eye candy indeed]

[I'm your brother, for goodness sake] Kyle said with a shudder [Normal sisters would think their brothers are dorks or ugly]

[I'm not blind and I'm honest] Kay replied [I'm gorgeous while you are even more so. Our genes are just too good]

[Shamelessness runs in the family, too] Kyle said, his mouth curling into a smile.

To others who were watching, his smile appeared very dreamy-like, as if he was texting a loved one. It was truly a beautiful picture. There were some that couldn't help but take a picture of that, squealing inside for being able to capture it. Privacy be damned, apparently.

[Kay, please make sure any pictures that are uploaded won't get the Kyle tag or something]

[Already done. The bots are out there doing their work well]

[Thanks Kay. You're the best]

[You owe me though]

[Gasp. You'd really take note of such a thing? We're siblings!] Kyle said dramatically as he walked out of the hotel. He looked around and took a deep breath.

[Normal siblings won't make me do so much work on a holiday]

Kyle grinned, flashing his Colgate Smile unknowingly. His pearly white teeth shone in the sunlight as his face shone even brighter. He gave a slight stretch, his rippling muscles straining against the already tight shirt as he then started his jog.

That day, there were many incidences of accidents where people ran into poles or tripped as a certain blond-haired boy was jogging around the city, oblivious to the slight chaos created behind him.

Well, after all, his senses were attuned to danger and not to people tripping over themselves or self body-palming the door/wall/pole etc.

? Evening ?

As Kyle and Xing Han reached Master Shifu's house, Kyle stopped and turned to Xing Han.

"There are still a few things about me that I haven't told you," Kyle said slowly, standing in front of the door with his back to it, "But I won't be able to. Some secrets aren't mine alone, so I hope you can understand that."

Xing Han rubbed his chin, making a 'I am thinking' expression then said, "Why don't we have a code?"

"Huh?" Kyle couldn't help but say.

"When there's something you need to do, or basically, need me out of the way, but can't tell me why, then just say 'Shazam!' and I'll scram," Xing Han announced, "No questions asked. No hard feelings either."

"Huh?" Kyle repeated.

Not that he didn't know what Xing Han meant, but Shazam?

"You know, SHAZAM!?" Xing Han repeated, "You're going to transform into your - I don't know. Spy or whatever. So by saying shazam, you're transforming! And I'll also transform ... into a ghost. I will disappear ... POOF!"

Kyle didn't answer, but merely turned as he rolled his eyes and unlocked the door to go in.
