Since it was going to be a serious and personal talk, Kyle had to figure out the best place for such a talk. It had to be one that allowed them the freedom to talk, yet Of course, the first thing that came to his mind which he dismissed immediately, was his house.

It would definitely give him the privacy that they needed, but he was also worried that he may not be able to control himself having her all to himself at home.

Public places were too public, for he wasn"t sure what her reaction would be upon finding out that he was leaving. 

It was a dilemma indeed.

Googling didn"t help either. All he got was that the places you go to should match what you were going to talk about. 

For example, if you"re going to ask the person out, then ask right after sharing a fun and special moment together. If you"re going to be talking about having kids, then do so right after seeing kids at school or something similar. If you"re going to break-up, it"s best to do it in public if the person is p.r.o.ne to anger.

In the end, he decided to book the entire helipad lounge at Tower KH. It was actually a functional helipad by day, but at night, it becomes a rooftop bar.

Ordinarily, it would not be open for private bookings, but with the amount Kyle was willing to pay, Kyle managed to do so. He simply gave an offer the owner could not refuse: twice the amount the owner would have gotten from a normal day"s earnings.


He also paid extra to have just one table and chair near the edge of the rooftop so that they got the best view. They wouldn"t be drinking, of course, and it would mainly be just desserts and normal drinks.

All of the stuff had been planned and arranged beforehand, so all Kyle needed to do was head on over.

Tower KH was in the middle of the golden-triangle of the City. The roads were closed for vehicles, and people could only walk or cycle in the area. Hence, Kyle had no problem reaching the place.

Sari"s eyes were wide open to be in the city, for she hardly went to such places. All the way to the rooftop, Sari was nervous and felt she was underdressed. The whole area screamed "luxury" and she felt a little bit out of place.

However, Kyle was non-plussed and simply walked through like it was nothing. Even though he was in casual clothes, too, Sari couldn"t help but think that on Kyle, he didn"t look out of place at all.

Perhaps it was his aura? Or the way he carried himself. 

When Kyle had dressed up for the prom, that aura was seen trickling through. Now, it was more prominent to Sari because he exuded it even though he was not dressed up. It was the first time she got a glimpse of his "real" self.

It made her even more nervous, but she held it in.

When Kyle brought her to the rooftop, she gasped. 

There was a single table, with a white table cloth and a rose in a vase. A waiter stood nearby, waiting for them and waited patiently as they walked towards the table.

Sari took in the whole scene in a daze. The setting was sweet and romantic, the view was breathtaking and surreal.

"Like it?" Kyle asked as he pulled the chair for her. 

She sat down, nodding. "It"s like a fairy tale," she said. 

Kyle smiled and replied, "Nothing but the best for you."

Sari smiled shyly. 

"I know you"re still full from the snacks we had at the cinema, so it"ll only be light snacks and dessert," Kyle explained before Sari could ask.

As if on cue, the finger food were delivered and the waiter left them, so they were all alone on the rooftop. Kyle was sitting right next to Sari, as they faced the city skyline. The sun was about to set and they were both quiet for a while, as they basked in the scenery.

As the sky became golden upon the sun setting, Kyle took Sari"s hand in his. Sari turned to look at him, and noticed his serious expression.

"Sari, there"s something I need to tell you," Kyle began, as he gently stroked the back of her hand as he stared at their joined hands.

"What is it?" Sari asked, her heart in her throat.

He lifted his head, and Sari could see his clear eyes looking slightly sad. This made her even more nervous and she held herself back from jumping to conclusions.

The day had been so great, so he couldn"t be breaking up with her, could he?!

"I"m leaving," Kyle said, dropping the bombsh.e.l.l, "I"ll be heading back home soon."

Sari"s lips quivered and she found herself being a bit out of breath.

"When?" she managed to ask in a whisper, gripping his hand tightly.

She knew this day had to come, even from that first time she found out who he was - but she had been too scared to ask him. Now that the day is here, she found that she had difficulty breathing, just thinking about it.

"The end of the month," Kyle said.

"That"s in two weeks" time!" Sari shouted, agitated, tears falling down her face.

Kyle reached over, wiping the tears with his thumbs, "I"m sorry."

Sari shook her head, sniffing as she looked down, "Don"t be. I knew you had to leave some day. I … I just didn"t think it would be so soon."

"Well, it has been over a year," Kyle pointed out.

"I know that!" Sari hissed, a bit annoyed at Kyle stating the obvious.

"I will be back for you," Kyle said, "Will you wait for me?"

Sari was surprised, "You"re not breaking up with me?"

Now Kyle was surprised, "No! Whatever gave you that idea?!"
