That night, I couldn't sleep much

That night, I couldn't sleep much. I stayed up thinking about what I told Johnny and Gyro, thinking back to what happened in reality.

I didn't feel bad for not telling the complete truth to them. Not one bit. And yet I found myself tired in the morning, just thinking about it and at Gyro's words. Would he really forgive a liar, or even more, a criminal? I didn't think so, but it would come into play later.

"Mom?" Asked a little girl, listening to the music that played inside the room, the keys of a piano hitting the right notes, and a short breath from a [H/C] haired woman, who was sitting behind a black, grand piano.

The girl didn't say anything, she stayed quiet as she watched her mother, [L/N] Masako, playing Fantaisie Impromptu, Opening sixty-six. The young girl knew her mother loved the song, she loved it so much that she made her daughter learn it so she could play it for her and her children when she grew older.

It was something that her mother was known for. Grace, well mannered, and for her beauty, whether it was in Japan, America or Great Britain, she would always be beautiful in the eyes of the people.

Her mother wasn't famously known for taking part in horse races yet, it wasn't until she got into a fight and was severely injured. [Y/N]'s father,  [L/N] Takeshi, didn't't know that who he took under his wing wasn't a male, but a female who had recently run away from her family's home in order to help with the debts her family owned.

After she was found to be a woman, she was kicked off the race, and she didn't manage to prove herself, all till Takeshi spoke up, and being a well respected man helped him.

Masako wasn't famous, unlike her husband, she was kept away from a normal life, hidden away by her parents from a very young age. They didn't give her a reason why, other than "It's for the best."

When she grew up, she came to find letters upon letters of threats of people who she didn't know, saying that if they didn't pay their debts back, they would be soon killed.

At fifteen, she ran away, joining many races dressed as a man. Unfortunately, in one of her races, she was suddenly attacked, and had to be taken to a hospital wing that was provided by the hosts, and when they checked under her shirt, they came upon the chest of a female.

Through her time in the race, she met a man who she fell in love with, saying that he understood her way of thinking, and that he forgave her every mistake. The man was a famous rider who had created himself a name after winning many races all over the world.

He has spoken up about the situation, saying that no woman was different to the man, and it surprised everyone when many of the people watching agreed with him. After that, Masako was allowed back in the race.

They married, and years later had a strong-minded boy, who they named [L/N] Kenji. The boy grew with the liking of fighting for justice, saying that if justice can't be served by others, he would serve it.
