Unforgetable Voyage - The Search Written By Lady Cat
Chapter 4
The grand opening was for a Monday night before a special edition of
RAW.
The girls told Katie to dress up, they were going out to a brand new
restaurant that was opening up. They had invitations to go and she
was to
be their guest. She was going to decline but felt she had nothing to
lose.
She decided to wear the gown she had worn on the cruise when she
first met
Taker. Ever since the cruise she had kept the dress in the closet,
not
wanting to wear it again, keeping it as a reminder. She took off
work
early and took a little extra time getting ready. The girls came by
at
six, the opening would be at seven.
The wrestlers were told to dress in their ring attire as they would
be
signing autographs. Taker was slow at getting ready. He was almost
ready
to give up. All this time and no sign of her anywhere. He was
beginning
to think Katie had been an apparition.
"Taker, you've looked this long. You can't give up now. I know I
was
unsure myself, but there's still a chance," Kane said, trying to give
encouragement to his friend.
The divorce papers had come through about 3 months ago. Taker was
legally
free to really pursue his search for Katie. Kane had breathed a sigh
of
relief that his now ex-wife hadn't found out. If she had, she would
have
tried to ruin Taker publicly, getting everything she could from him.
"I'm not sure any more, Kane. I know I said I wouldn't quit, that no
matter what, I would find her. If by some miracle I should find her,
what
if she doesn't want anything to do with me? What if she doesn't even
remember? Worse, what if she is going with someone else?" Kane
couldn't
answer. That was a chance Taker would have to take.
They left in a long limo for the restaurant. He and Kane arrived
amidst a
crowd of fans. After waving at them, they entered the restaurant.
The girls arrived just after all the wrestlers had entered. They
showed
their invitation. Sue and Beth were in awe at how the restaurant was
decorated. They looked at the pictures of the wrestlers that were on
a
special board near the main dining area. Katie was looking around.
She
hadn't been told this was where they were going. The girls were
shown to
a
table in the main dining area. Katie was looking at some pictures on
the
wall. She saw one in particular - Taker. She touched it.
"I wish I could see you again. I miss you."
She went to join the girls at their table.
