Kai sighed, and stared at the door to her hotel room, half dreading going inside. Finally after standing there a few moments, she pushed the door open and stepped inside. Immediately tears began to well in her eyes because right in her view was Jaime's suitcase. Shaking her head, she tore her gaze away from his things, and quickly wiped her eyes with the back of her hand. She could do this. She HAD to do this. She moved across the room, sank down on the side of the bed, and reached for the phone and pulled it over onto her lap. Picking up the receiver, she took a long deep breath before quickly dialling her brother's private number. She listened as the phone rang on the other end, waiting for him to answer.
"Yan Tsung.." Came her brother's deep voice.
"Did you do it Yan?" Kai asked, trying to keep her voice from trembling.
"Kai?"
"Did you DO it Yan?" She repeated, her grip tightening on the phone.
"What the hell are you talking about Kai? Do what?"
"He's dead Yan.. Someone killed him. Someone who knew where we were. And YOU and Jun are the only ones who know! So don't play stupid with me! DID YOU DO IT?!" She all but screamed into the mouth piece.
"Kai.. Calm down," Yan said, his voice softening. "Jaime's.. He's dead?" There was silence for a moment. "Kai? Are you alone?"
"Of course I'm alone! My husband.. " She shook her head, "He's dead.. I saw him this morning.. And now? He's.. He's..just.." Her voice began to break and she couldn't even finish the sentance.
"Kai... I'm going to send Jun over to stay with you until I can get there myself. I'll be leaving LA as soon as I can get things in order. So.. Don't go anywhere. We'll figure this out together.. Okay?"
"Alright," Kai said dully and without so much of another word hung up the phone and set it down on the bed. Rising to her feet, she moved around the bed, and droppd down on her knees next to Jaime's things. Carefully she pulled out one of his sweaters and buried her face in it. She was really alone. For the first time in her life.. She was alone.
