Chapter 586 - Dina
Kay leaned back on her chair, staring at Dina.
"It\'s annoying, isn\'t it? How I look so familiar yet you can\'t remember who I am? Where we met?" Kay asked.
Dina\'s eyes went wide open. Her initial fear of being forced to stay dissipated due to the surprise she was feeling.
"Tell me," Kay said as she leaned forward, "Why were you working so hard to cause discord between Sari and her boyfriend?"
The pin dropped.
"Kayla?!" she nearly screamed it out and Ali pressed his hand on her shoulder. She winced.
"Sssh," Kay said, "We\'re in public now, so don\'t cause a scene. Cause one, and I will take you somewhere so secluded that they\'ll find your body only next year. If ever."
Dina didn\'t know why, but she believed the threat Kay gave. Maybe it was the way she said it. Like she was just asking about the weather, but the coldness in her eyes betrayed the nonchalant attitude she seemed to give out.
Dina knew that she was doomed if she did not cooperate.
"So that\'s why," Kay mused without Dina saying a word, "You knew who he really was."
"So young, and so vicious," Kay said.
"What do we do with her?" Ali asked.
"Nothing," Kay said, getting up, "She\'s not worth my time."
She did, however, lean down to Dina and say in her ear, "Karma\'s a b*tch. One day, you\'re going to face trouble and when you do, think of all that you had done to Sari and my brother."
Ali let Dina go, and followed Kay as they walked away.
"You\'re not really letting her go, are you?" Ali asked.
"Nope," Kay said with a smile.
For the next few years, Dina was plagued with constant trouble.
Electronic trouble, to be precise. No matter what she did, her computer and phone acted weird. As if there was a virus. Yet, even after using the best anti-virus programme, nothing was found.
It was as if she was cursed.
Whatever work she did on her computer, would be wiped out an hour later. Even if she saved her work on the Cloud system, or whatever online storage, it would disappear an hour later.
Even if she used the public computer, it would be gone an hour later.
In the end, she had to print out her materials to read, and only type out her assignments and send it off within an hour. It made studying at University hell.
As for her phone?
It would only work as a phone.
It would not store phone contacts, it could not take pictures and any messages sent or received would delete itself. She could not access the internet or download any applications.
In the end, Dina had to settle for a handphone that did not have 4G.
During this time, Kay\'s words would echo in her mind and she became convinced that Kay had cursed her.

Kyle had been gone the whole night, and still did not return the next day.
He had slept for two hours on the tree and bought some new clothes.
It had only been one day, but a new Kyle was born.
He had always had a cold demeanour when he was working, for he needed to command obedience and respect. There was no place for playfulness or anything of the sort when he was working.
Now, however, that coldness seemed to be his natural demeanour. There seemed to be a lack of emotion in his eyes, and his normally warm face had a stoic expression.
Kyle did not realise how his outer appearance had been affected by him settling the chaos in his heart. His aura had also changed subtly.
It was still the powerful aura that he always had, but it was now more refined and dignified. Steady and solid. Unwavering … and unemotional. Like nothing could affect him.
Kyle only knew that he felt calm now and could face Sari so that was where he was headed. Though he had broken up with her already, he still felt that the loose ends needed to be tied.
After all, she had run after him, right?
One thing he brought from his past life was his need to communicate and talk things out. Though the outcome would not change in this, he still wanted to settle everything with her.
So he can leave with a clear conscience.
Kyle went to Sari\'s house and rang the doorbell.
"Yes, can I help you?"
Kyle gave a small smile - at least, tried to, but found it surprisingly hard. In the end, he didn\'t and he gave a small nod, saying, "Auntie Zals, it\'s me. Rex."
Zals blinked her eyes rapidly. Then rubbed them.
No matter what she did, the handsome young man in front of her did not look like Rex at all. There was no sloppy hair, no slouch, and the person in front looked surprisingly like the guy in the poster in Sari\'s room.
"This is what I really look like," Kyle explained, "Is Sari home?"
Zals then remembered what Rex, no, Kyle, had told them before he left. That he was in disguise to hide while studying and had to go back. She had heard it then, but she had no idea about his true identity.
Flustered, Zals then remembered how Sari had been crying when she came back yesterday. She hadn\'t said a word about what happened, and Zals thought of asking her about it today.
"She … she is in, but she isn\'t quite up to seeing people right now," Zals said finally. Sari had locked herself in her room the entire time and she was getting a bit worried.
"Don\'t worry, Auntie," Kyle said, "Just let her know it\'s me and she\'ll come out."
Nodding, Zals let him in.
