Hi there! It's Durante Alighieri with the epilogue of Kyon In Canada. Without any interruptions, here it is!!


Epilogue: "Life After... (Part 2)"

START:

Part One: "I... have returned"

Location: Narita International Airport, Tokyo, Japan

Date: October 23, 2016

As the landing gears of the airplane touch the ground, I peered through the window to see what Tokyo look like now and I must say a lot of things changed. The airport looks renovated, and especially the planes look very different. Then I heard the plane's public announcer "Attention all passengers, we are going to dock with the airport in a few minutes." the stewardess said in Japanese and translated them to English. As I got off the plane, I started to wonder why I went back here to Japan. Well, even though I was on a closed space for at least a few hours that I think lasted for at least 3 years, I kept my promise to my cousin Ryu that I will return to Japan. ((Author: Confused? Read chapter 2, part 6))

Okay to make ends meet, I have decided to tell what happened to the 10 years worth of staying there in Canada, I graduated high school, went to university then graduated seven years later, found a job as a ADR Director and Scriptwriter on one of the top production companies in Toronto. Wish I could be a voice actor though, but I can't. Oh well.

So anyway, after I got my bag from the carousel, I found my father sitting on the waiting area. He grew old, white hair is starting to come out, and his face started to droop down. And he seems to be sleeping peacefully. Seeing my father after so long made me cry.

"Dad?" I kneeled and looked at him, lightly shaking him.

"Ah, Kyon." my father said in a happy voice, hugging me tightly "My Lord, I missed you so much."

"Me too, Dad." I returned the embrace.

It took another 18 minute ride from the airport to my house where my dad found a new family. His wife is 2 years younger than him, and my new sibling came from my stepmother's side and is roughly same age as Imouto-chan but add 10 years to her age. "Um, Kyon." my dad said "Do you remember where your room is?"

"Yes, dad." I said as I took off my shoes and went up the stairs.

"Kyon?" my stepmother said "Are you going to greet your stepmother too?" she asked sweetly.

"Of course." I climbed down and gave her a hug "I forgot, Mom. Sorry."

Wow, how long has it been since I last hugged my mother? Oh, that's right, before I was at an accident. Tears started to drop on my eyes, when I realized I was crying, I broke off from her and climbed upstairs. "Give him some time, Moriko." my dad said to her "It might be hard for him at first, but he'll understand over time."

After reaching the top of the stairs, I leaned against the wall and my back slowly slid towards the floor. My mind kept wondering why that sadness that I had suddenly resurfaced again after so long did. "Kyon?" my stepmother emerged from the stairs sat beside me "I know I can't replace your mother but I'll try my best." she said with a soothing tone, the tone I didn't have a chance hear for many years.

"Thanks, Mom." I gave her a hug and cried at her shoulder. After I finally calmed down, I thanked my stepmother and opened the door to my room.

As I open the door of my room, another feeling of nostalgia scattered across my body. I see two vases filled with flowers on the window and as I stare, tears started to fall from my eyes. I fell on my knees and started to have a sensation of my chest tightening. Without me realizing it, I collapsed on the floor. Five or six hours later, I regained consciousness and find myself on my bed. I stared at the time on the ceiling which projected from my bedside table clock "5 am," I looked at the clock beside me, rolled my eyes and went back to sleep.

"Wake up!" a voice that seems to originate from the other side of the wall calls for me.

Meh, leave me and my dream alone. I grunted in response.

"Onii-chan.. wake up!" the voice tried again

Onii-chan? Even my biological little sister doesn't call me that way. No, me not waking!

The next morning was not bad, being dragged out of bed because of my step-sister. "Auu..." my step-sister purred "Onii-chan or should I say Kyon is sooooo cute when he's waking up!"

"Should a seventeen-year-old teenager should be doing this to his brother?!" I looked at her, I noticed she was wearing a maid uniform "And by the way, why are you dressing as a maid?!"

"Nevermind that." she said cutely "You are taking me somewhere."

Eating Japanese food after so long really made me feel homesick, makes me want to stay here in Japan until I die, but unfortunately I only have a visitor visa which sucks, eh? After taking breakfast, I decided to have a sight-seeing of my own in the city. As I walk towards my front door, my dad touched my shoulder "Kyon, can you drive?" he asked

"If the wheel is on the left side, I can." I said as I slip on my shoes then my dad gave me a key to his car. I looked at the insignia embedded on the key, and my eyes widen "It... it's... It's an Aston Martin One-77!" I looked at him "Dad, how on earth did you get this?!"

"I bought it." he simply answered "A One-77 costs half the price than it was seven years ago." he placed his hand on my shoulder "It's yours. By the way, your sister wants you to take her to an anime convention in the city center. Take her there."

"The city center?" I said as I slowly open the door of the house "Okay." now that explains why she was wearing a maid costume.

"Oh, come on." he pushed me outside "Ride the car!" he closed the door then opens it again, bringing my younger sister outside.

Part Two: "A Rather... Nice Encounter with Someone You Know"

Driving the Aston Martin is pretty good, you know, the way it grips the road. Wish I own this car in Canada though, but I can't because it's just pretty darn expensive. As I turn towards the intersection, I didn't see a pedestrian coming, so I slammed on the brakes and threw my head to the steering wheel. Damn it, that hurt. "Onii-chaaan..." my step-sister purred out "Itai..." she said while rubbing her head

"Keep quiet." I managed to speak out despite of the pain "I am in pain also. You should have placed you seatbelts."

"But you didn't place the seatbelts too, Kyon." she explained herself but that doesn't have an effect on me. "That doesn't mean that you should copy me! Aaah!" the pain, as if they rip my head apart radiates across my head as I exclaimed.

As I continue to rub my head hard to disperse the pain, the pedestrian went to my driver's side window and knocked "Hello?" a female voice called through the window "Are you alright?"

Then the pain starts to subside "Yeah." I said as I roll down the window "I'm al-" I was like 2 inches from the pedestrian I nearly hit "Mikuru Asahina?" I asked blankly. Wow, she looks like the old version of her and she is now!

"That's me." she smiled and looked like she realized something "Are you Kyon?!" she looked at me closely.
"That's me." I responded at impulse.

"I...I...I...I didn't realize that you were here in Japan three years early!"

"Um, Onii-chan?" my step-sister interrupted "You two knew each other?"

"Yes, she was my sempai when I was studying here in Japan before I went to Canada." I said calmly to my step-sister then faced Mikuru "I guess this event is pretty unexpected, eh?"

"I guess so," she looked down for a few seconds then asked "How are you? And is this your step-sister?"

"Pretty good myself, and yes, she is my step-sister. How's yours?" I returned the question

"Not bad. By the way, you are visiting here right?"

"Yeah," I scratched the back of my head "After five months of staying here, I'll be returning to Canada."

"I see." she nodded. "You are going to see Haruhi, right?"

An arrow struck my heart, bull's eye.

"So, I was right," Mikuru giggled "Fufufu... something going to happen but I can't see it."

Damn it, my head starts to throb again.

"There is nothing going on." I rubbed my head again "I am just here to visit Haruhi, that's it."

"Who's Haruhi?" my step-sister asked

"Never mind that." I replied coldly while pulling the braids on her hair.

"Ow ow ow ow! Onii-chan, you are so mean." my step-sister pouted "Oh no, the convention. We have to go, NOW!"

"Sorry, I have to go. My sister is you know going to go somewhere." I faced Mikuru with an apologetic look, rolled my windows and drove off unknowingly that Mikuru grabbed a phone from her bag and called someone.

Part Three: "Emotional Reunion"

Okay, so I managed to bring my step-sister to the anime convention. "Bye, Onii-chan." she hugged me tightly, pressing my face to her chest. Hm, that felt good, but hey! Wait a minute, I should pull out of this. "Look, I might be your step-brother," I pulled out from her embrace. "...but we shouldn't be doing this."

"Auu..." she pouted "Meanie." she then opened the door "Pick me up at 8, okay?" this time she said it in a voice where she is like an anime character in this anime show that stepmother has been taking about for a while, some maid-rich guy romance anime that my step-sister is a big fan of "Hey," she opened the door "...besides, we are not related by blood so maybe we could have a little love triangle."

"Shut up, ..." I mentioned her first name coldly. "Never ever talk to me as if we are lovers, we are siblings." I replied.

"Hey, calm yourself Kyon." she winked at me "I was just kidding."

I gave her my death stare in response. Wait a minute, do I have a death stare?

"Okay, I'll be going now." she closed the door then ran to her group of friends who are also in maid uniform too. Damn, don't stare Kyon, don't stare.

Well, since I have nothing else to do, I decided to roam around the city using this car. While driving on the road to the train station, I happen to see the cafe that me, Haruhi and the rest of the brigade go into when we go scouting for unusual activity. Damn, stupid narration why does my name have to be right beside Haruhi. I mean really, give me a break. ((Author: Sorry.))

So anyway, I parked my car and went inside the cafe. "Welcome." the cafe owner welcomed me on his establishment. I thanked him back and grabbed a seat and looked at menu. "So sir," a waitress with the paper and pen called me "What would you like to have?"

"Um, let's see." I looked at her for a few seconds then looked back to the menu "I would like to have some sandwiches and a tea please." I looked at her again and I recognized the waitress. "Um, excuse me?"

"Yes?" the waitress looked at me.

"Um... are you by any chance, Suzumiya Haruhi-san?" I looked at her nametag, "Suzumiya Haruhi," I stood up "It's me, Kyon, from high school?" I introduced myself.

Haruhi dropped her paper and pen then slowly wrapped her arms around me. "Kyon... Kyon... I missed you so much." she started to cry.

"Hey, what's going on?" the cafe owner went to see "Sorry to interrupt." he left to the safety of the cash register.

"Haruhi, I am so sorry." I returned the embrace "I am so sorry I left you."

"As long as you are here, I'm happy." she embraced me tightly.

"Do you remember the text message you sent me when I arrived in Canada?"

"Hm.. what do you mean?" she have no idea what I was talking about so I decided to jog her memory.

Flashback, 10 years earlier.

I placed the phone on my pocket of my jacket after my conversation with Koizumi "Ok, let's go." I said as Ryu grabbed a bag from my side when I received an e-mail to my cellphone. "Geez, what kind of a girlfriend do you have." Ryu asked.

"Shut up, Ryu." I said as I open my cellphone and walked with Ryu and e-mail came from Haruhi, it read...

Dear Kyon,

So how's Canada so far, I hope it is great out there. I'm sorry if I didn't show up at the airport.

I've wanting to tell you this... I like you, Kyon. From the first time you talked to me, you resemble a person I met in the 3 years ago, but I ignore you sometimes, but inside me, my heart is inundated with questions if you like me. But when you told us that you will leave Japan, I was frustrated and I thought you didn't like me, but I can't really confess to you in front of them. I hope you could reply to this email, okay? I have to go now.

Haruhi.

After I read the message, I smiled and walked with my cousins.

Flashback Ends:

"Oh, I get it Kyon." Haruhi looked at me and smiled, "I still remember that."

"Oh, you do?" I raised an eyebrow.

"Why yeah," she kissed me lightly "Hm... that felt good."

"Want to do kiss me again?" I asked

"Yep." before she landed her lips to mine, I asked her something.

"Do you have a job to do?" and that question sparked Haruhi to return to the real world.

"Oh, crap." she picked up the paper and pen on the floor and looked at me "I'll talk to you after my shift is over, okay?"

"Okay." I went back to my seat and smiled.

So, to conclude what happened after that, I ate my lunch and dated Haruhi after her shift is over. Oh yeah, there is also something strange that happened when I was at the cafe though I have a feeling that someone or two people were watching me. Hm...what the heck, why should I care?

Part Four: "A... Great Idea"

We drove on the highway, to the mountains overlooking the city, facing the sunset on the west "its beautiful." she said while closing the door "I meant the sunset."

I smiled in response "Yep, it is."

"So, Kyon." she went closer to me "How long are you planning on staying here?"

"Hm... I replied "Five months, why did you ask?"

"Is it possible if I could come to Canada with you?"

"You what?"

"Why? Is it a bad idea?"

"I am not saying that."

"Well, what's the process?"

"It's not easy." I sighed "It will take a full five months for you to come to Canada, since there are less Japanese who are registering to go Canada."

"Oh really." she pushed me down, making me lie down on the hood of the car "And are you staying here for five months?"

"Why yes." I faced her "Please don't take my summer away."

"What?!" she exclaimed "You don't like the idea?"

I suddenly calmed down "Hey, I was just joking." I sighed "Fine, but please, don't do anything stupid, like forcing the Canadian Ambassador. Okay?"

"Okay."

And so, to make things short and sweet, I decided to help her in any way possible. So one day we decided to meet up in a cafe where we and the rest of the SOS brigade used to meet up.

"Kyon?" Haruhi suddenly called me "Can you help me with this thing?"

I looked at what Haruhi is pointing "That one? Well let me tell you...."

Okay then, let's fast forward, after a five whole months, after so many frustrations in learning English, I managed to get Haruhi up in the airport en route to Canada. "Bye Haruhi," her parents bid Haruhi goodbye.

"Bye Mom, Dad." Haruhi gave them her final embrace.

Meanwhile, me, my parents and my step-sister gave said our goodbyes.

"Bye, Onii-chan."my step-sister hugged me "It's a shame though, there is no love triangle."

Damn, will you just let it go?

My stepmother elbowed her daughter on the side "Sorry about that Kyon, she reads manga ALL the time and you know her imagination suddenly went to those things." then she hugged me "I am happy because now I got a son."

"I'm happy now that I have a mother." I returned the embrace.

After bidding my father goodbye, me and Haruhi were walking towards the departure aisle. "So Kyon," Haruhi looked at me while speaking in English, "Where will we land?"

"Toronto." I replied to her in English "That's where we will land."

Upon seating on the airplane, Haruhi looked at me then smiled which I gladly returned with a kiss. As the plane taxis on the runway, we held hands as the plane took off.

:END of Epilogue


NOTE: To clarify everything, this epilogue happens after the longest-running Closed Space which took the entire length of the storyline of this fanfic just to dissipate after Koizumi, Mikuru, and Yuki decided to pool their powers to defeat the giants in the Closed Space, and this is an continuation to the final part of chapter six where Kyon arrived in Canada and then the epilogue time-lapsed many years later. I hope you guys and gals like this fan fiction.
