( Hi guys,  how is the story going? Are you enjoying it? Let's start today's part with Sho's pov)

* SHO'S POV *

I  got another panic attack. I just saw a very weird dream. It was about a girl getting caught by enemies and she was thrown from the cliff. It's so terrible. I got up from my bed and I nearly jumped. It was the same girl which I saw in my dream. She is Shoko, right? My daughter, whom I was unable to take care of because of this job. She looked tensed up as she saw me. She tried to relieve me from my panic attack.

" Sho san, do you feel better now? And I am sorry for your suffering. I didn't know that you are ill. And Leo was not also coming to school for a week. So, I doubted that something is off and came to your house to see you. "  She said.

" I know you are worried about us. By the way, I am going to tell you something. Promise me that you won't tell about it to Leo. It will be too much for him to take it. So please!" I said.

" Sure, I will do anything for you. Promise. " She promised me. So, I spitted out everything before her.

"I am your biological mother. I am the one who gave birth to you. But due to some circumstances, you and your dad get separated from us. Your dad also knows this thing but he just can't tell you about this. Leo is your twin brother. Till now, I am doing my level best to take care of him and my job. Due to this job, I can't patch up with your dad. I apologize for that. But I am promising that your mom will return after the disbanding. "   

She looked at me in shock. As her whole life has been turned upside down. Then her face melted as she saw me and hugged me tightly. Tears started flowing down her cheeks.

" I just want a mom. And now I get it. Thank you so much mom for telling me the truth. All these years, I just felt the absence of a mom. Dad makes sure to fill that space for me. He did his best so that I don't feel upset about it. Everyone used to bully me at school because I am a spoiled child who got pampered by her dad. Thank you, mom. " I said

" I am sorry Shoko that you had to go through all of this. I am unable to take care of you. I failed as a mom. How will I be able to forgive myself?"  I started to tear up as I saw my daughter crying.

" Don't be sorry mom, you have tried to be a good mom. But circumstances have been against us. Now, we can just move on. And you make sure to take care of your health. One more thing I have to say, we have our function the day after tomorrow. So, please let Leo come for practice or we will fail. Leo also wants this function to be a success since he wants to show it to you. So, please!! "   She pleaded.

" Ok, I agree. And make sure to not tell about it to your dad too. " I said.

" Yeah!" She said.

After that, Leo arrived. I asked him to help Shoko to get to her home back and then they left. I hope everything goes fine from now on.

* After 2 days *

* SHOKO'S POV *

Two days have been passed. Our practice is going well. And according to Leo, mom's health is improving day by day. Our function is tomorrow. I am very anxious. I don't know if we will be able to pull up a good show or not. It's not an easy job. When I was lost in my thoughts, Leo called me.

" What happened Shoko?  What are you thinking ? Is there something that bother you? Can you tell me?" He asked.

" Nothing important. I am just worried about our show. I don't know if we will be able to pull up a great show or not? Both of our parents are coming to see our show. I just want everything to go well." I said.

" Don't worry about that Shoko. We have practiced day and night for it. I am sure it will be a success. By the way, how is your relationship with Takashi? I heard that you went to cafe with him yesterday. Hmm?"  He asked teasingly. 

" Hey, when did you see me going with him huh? Yeah, you are right tho. I do went to cafe with him yesterday. And you know what, we drank coffee from the same cup. I heard that it is a trend to drink with the same cup for the couples. It is an indirect kiss lol. " I said.

" Umm.. Shoko, I want to share something with you. I haven't even talked about it with mom. I don't know how she will react. It's that idols are not allowed to have a relationship. That's why, I didn't mention about it there. The thing is that I have fallen in love with a guy. His name is Ryosuke. I am spending time with him lately. He really is a good guy, I am telling you. It's just that I don't have the guts to say this to mom. " He spitted out.

" Then what happened? Love never see gender. If you love him, you should tell about it to mom. She is an understanding lady. She will understand you. Just tell her. Don't hesitate Leo. Your mom deserves to know about it. " I said.

" Okay, I will think about it. Anyways, have you prepared our dress? " He asked.

" Yeah, it's ready. We only have to wear then tomorrow. I just can't wait for it now. I am excited. Okay then, see you tomorrow.  Have a nice day Leo. " I said. 

" You too." He replied.

* LEO'S POV *

* At home *

"  Hey mom, I want to tell you something. " I said hesitantly.

" Yes sweetie, what happened? " she asked.

" Actually mom, I love a guy named Ryousuke. He is a very good guy. We love each other very much. But, I know you won't agree with it due to our contract rules. But, I can't live without him now. Please mom, can I continue with my relationship?  " I asked.

" Who told you that I won't agree with it. I also wanted you to have a partner. I don't care if it's a guy or a girl. I am ok with it. Love is love. And don't think about the rules. I will take care of it. You just enjoy your life. I just want you to be happy. " she replied. 

" Thank you so much mom. You are the best. " And I hugged her.
