Same thoughts, miles apart.

"Emi you're hungry again?" I asked, rubbing my belly. I closed my eyes feeling the kicks as I giggled, looking down. "Yeah, big boys like you gotta eat well." I sighed, looking around the motel that I'm in before laying on the bed gently. "Don't worry, I'll figure something out..."

I looked to the left seeing the picture frame of me and Kou as I frowned, finding myself missing him. But he's at his highest level of success right now, imagine what would happen if I told him...

Ever since I fled from home, I've been working at a diner and motel, where I met Nik, one of the owners with his brother. Luckily and fortunately they were able to provide me with a spare room after finding out about my current situation.

The door opened as I sat up, seeing Nik, with a few grocery bags as I tilted my head.

"Nik, I said I'll sort myself out. You've already done much giving me this room for free until I can support myself." I frowned, as he laughed, closing the door.

"True but there's a baby that needs support." He started, sitting down next to me. "We got a meal for 2, heat pads, extra blankets..." While he was going on with what he bought, I couldn't stop looking at the photo as I sighed. "...When's he going to know?" He asked, pointing at Kou after noticing I wasn't listening to a single word. I looked away, already having battles with my head about if I should tell or not.

It hurts enough that he's not here with me, heck the male might have cuddled me right now when I needed him the most... but I did the right choice... right?

But what if he's found someone else...

"Well..." I started, looking back at my belly. I'm already 6 months in meaning anything could happen. "When the time is right." I nodded, not realising that I said the same words to my parents.

"Promise me he won't grow up fatherless." Nik frowned as I nodded immediately. I may not be ready but I can't let him live without meeting his father. "Oh and a question. Why Emilio?" I smiled, looking back at the photo of me and Kou.

"Named after his father. Mukami Emilio." I answered as I looked at the plastic bag. "What's for dinner? He's hungry." I added, pointing at my belly.

"Spaghetti Bolognese?"

Meanwhile, Kou, he's just finished performing live and was heading backstage, whilst the staff was helping him cool down.

"Wonderful show Mukami, never fail to disappoint." His manager* said, patting his back. "It's like each day you're making sales." He frowned upon the comment, as he walked to a nearby seat and sighed.

Seems like people haven't changed. He took a second to think before allowing his idol persona to take over.

"Well, my {Y/N} keeps me going." He said truthfully, knowing one day he will find her. However, his manager wasn't impressed with his answer as he heavily sighed.

"Don't tell me you're thinking about her again? Focus, kid. It's been half a year, she's gone for good." He scowled as Kou looked at him surprised before glaring at him.

"And so?" He raised his eyebrows as the guy sighed, scratching his head. Ever since {Y/N}, his manager used this opportunity to his advantage to overwork him since he'd occasionally sneak out to be with her.

"A girl like her was never meant for you. I mean, look at the idols you're competing with. I heard one of them liked you-"

"I only like {Y/N}, you're pissing me off already." He cussed before walking away. He paused for a second, before turning his head around to face the staff. Working with the pain-in-the-ass was hard for them anyway. "Thank you for your hard work. Laterz~ ^_−☆"

*Not to be confused with Kou's current manager.
