Lucky Kyo

Chapter Six

A Second Message to Kyo

Kyo-

Now that I have told you this all, I want to assure you that I only wrote this to show you how lucky you truly are. I don't know if you'll even bother to read this but I still want to swear to you - my intentions were pure. I did not aspire to destroy your faith in Kazuma when I told you about his encounter with his grandfather; I merely meant to show you that, in the times of previous cats, even good men acted brutally toward the felines.

I hope now that you see that you are lucky to have what you do. I meant nothing offensive to you in the terms that I used to speak of the former cats. I do not see you as any more cursed than myself. You know I meant not to hurt your feelings, don't you? You know I care for you deeply, like a father loves his son.

I admit that I am too young to take much of a parental role in your life and you really haven't given me any chance to attempt to either. However, I am still trying to take more responsibility and show you the truth, as any good father would do for his son. I hope that after reading this message, if you do read it, you know that I care for you and you can come to me in your times of need. You can tell me anything and I'll still love you. I'll keep your secrets with strictest confidentiality… if you let me see you within. I realize it's going to take more than just this letter to convince you to open up to me that much, but I am willing to work on it. I hope you are as well.

In closing, I would like to ask you to answer one question for me - do you now see why Aya calls you Lucky Kyo?
