You were drivin' the getaway car

We were flyin', but we'd never get far

Don't pretend it's such a mystery

Think about the place where you first met me

"Did you ever even love Mama?"

"What?" Sana turns to her now 24 year old daughter, Yua, "I'm just curious.."

"I.." Sana was tongue tied by the sudden question, "Of course I—."

"Kaa-san, we both know I didn't mean platonically." Yua decides to confront her mother about something she's noticed growing up, "I know the truth." Yua says, blinking away her tears.

"Yua-chan.." Sana pauses, but unable to find any words.

"When the three of us would be together we'd be happy and smile a lot..but when I turned my back...I knew that mama wasn't happy, because you weren't happy." The young woman closes her eyes, knowing that this wasn't the time nor the place to have this talk, not when she's about to walk down that aisle herself, but a part of her felt like she needed that answer before she walked out those doors..and she's seen her other mother's broken eyes for too long for her to not ask Sana this, "Why did you stay?" She finally asks, looking her mother straight in the eyes, unbeknownst to the two that a listening ear was just outside the door.

The words her daughter asked her wife rang in Mina's ears, her heart pounding with each second of silence coming from the double doors.

"I've always known.." Mina whispers, placing her palm on the door, "That I was never the one you love."

"Mina? What are you..."

"Oh where are we going?" Momo asks, when Mina suddenly dragged her away from the waiting room.

"She's not ready yet..let's just wait a few more moments."

"Eh? But shouldn't you be in there with them?"

"I think Sana's having one of her moments with Yua-chan..why don't we go find the others."

"No can do Minari..you're lying to me right now..I know because you cannot lie."

"I.." Mina puts her head down, "You think I should've just walked away?"

"Hmm?"

"I said, I'm telling you the truth, they're having a moment and you know how emotional Sana can get sometimes."

"If it wasn't for Yua-chan's wedding, I'd totally be grilling you right now. But I'm going to let this pass cause it's a happy day."

"Thank you, now help me make sure everything is ready."

"Mama." Yua smiles seeing Mina peek her head in after knocking lightly, "Hi." Mina steps in, smiling at her daughter, "My daughter looks even more gorgeous today." She hugs Yua, "I can't believe my little bug is getting married."

"Awww Mama." Yua hugs Mina back tightly, "Are you crying already?"

"I'm not like your Kaa-san." Mina shakes her head, smiling, "Are you happy?"

"I am." Yua nods.

"Good. Your Kaa-san and I both really like Ryota."

"Mama." Yua leads Mina to the couch, "Hmm?"

"Why did you stay?" Yua asks Mina the same question.

"Eh? Stay where?" Mina feigns ignorance.

"Mama." Yua looks at her mother sternly.
