adoption

It was a quiet evening in the apartment. The kids were asleep, tucked away in their rooms after a long day of playful antics and sweet moments. The living room was bathed in the soft glow of a single lamp, casting warm light over the cozy space where Kiyotaka and Suzune sat on the couch, sipping tea in comfortable silence.

Suzune had been quieter than usual that evening, her mind clearly occupied. Kiyotaka noticed her fidgeting slightly, her fingers tracing the edge of her teacup as if lost in thought. He could sense the weight of something unsaid lingering in the air between them.

Finally, after what felt like an eternity, Suzune set her cup down on the table in front of her and turned to Kiyotaka. Her expression was serious, but there was a vulnerability in her eyes that he rarely saw. She took a deep breath, as if gathering the strength to say what had been on her mind all evening.

"Kiyotaka," she began softly, her voice steady but laced with emotion. "There's something I want to talk to you about."

Kiyotaka's calm gaze met hers, his usual unreadable expression in place, though there was a hint of curiosity in his eyes. "What is it?" he asked, his voice gentle, knowing that whatever Suzune was about to say was important.

She hesitated for a moment, her fingers tightening slightly around the fabric of her pants. "I've been thinking about the kids—Gojo, Saya, and Aiko," she started. "They've become such an important part of my life in such a short amount of time. I... I love them. Like they're my own."

Kiyotaka listened in silence, his expression softening slightly as he watched her struggle to find the right words. He had seen how much the children had come to mean to Suzune, how she had bonded with each of them in her own way. But there was something deeper in her tone tonight, something she hadn't shared before.

"I want to adopt them," Suzune said suddenly, her words spilling out before she could stop herself. "I want to be their legal mother."

Kiyotaka blinked, surprised by the intensity of her statement. He had expected her to care deeply for the children, but adoption was a step he hadn't anticipated.

Suzune saw the surprise in his eyes and quickly continued, her voice growing more insistent. "I want to be on the papers. I want to be their mother in every sense of the word, not just in name or in how I feel. I want to legally adopt them."

Kiyotaka studied her for a moment, his mind processing her request. "Why?" he asked gently, though not in an accusatory way. He simply wanted to understand.

Suzune's gaze fell to her hands, her fingers trembling slightly as she clasped them together. There was a long pause before she spoke again, her voice quieter this time, filled with a pain she had kept hidden for so long.

"I... I need to tell you something about my past," she said, her voice breaking just slightly at the end. "About my family. About why this means so much to me."

Kiyotaka remained silent, giving her the space to share what she needed to. Suzune took a deep breath, gathering her thoughts before she continued.

"My parents... they never cared about me the way they cared about my older brother. He was always the favorite. He was smarter, more successful, and in their eyes, he was the perfect child. I was just... there." Her voice grew bitter as she spoke, the old wounds reopening as she remembered the way her parents had treated her.

"But it wasn't just about his success," Suzune continued, her voice growing quieter. "It was because he could carry on the family name. He could have children, a future that they could be proud of. And me... I couldn't."

Kiyotaka's eyes widened slightly, the weight of her words sinking in. He had never known this part of Suzune's past, the pain she had carried with her all these years.

"I can't have children, Kiyotaka," Suzune said, her voice barely above a whisper now. "I've known for a long time. It's something I found out when I was younger, but I never told anyone. My parents didn't care about me because they saw me as... defective. I couldn't give them grandchildren, so I was worthless to them."

Kiyotaka's heart ached at the vulnerability in her voice, the pain that she had carried alone for so long. He reached out, placing his hand gently over hers, offering silent comfort as she continued.

"That's why I want to adopt Gojo, Saya, and Aiko," Suzune said, her voice trembling slightly. "They've become my family. I love them as if they were my own, and I want to be there for them in every way. I don't want them to ever feel like they don't have a mother who cares about them. I want to be that person for them."

There was a long silence after she finished speaking, the weight of her confession hanging heavily in the air between them. Kiyotaka looked at Suzune, his eyes softening as he saw the raw emotion in her face. He hadn't expected this, but now that he knew, it made sense. Suzune had always been strong, always fighting for herself and others, but beneath that strength was a deep yearning for the family she had never had.

After a moment, Kiyotaka nodded, his decision clear in his mind. "If that's what you want, Suzune," he said softly, "then we'll make it happen. You'll be their mother, legally and in every other way."

Suzune's eyes widened in surprise, tears welling up as she processed his words. "Really?" she asked, her voice filled with a mix of hope and disbelief.

Kiyotaka nodded again, his expression steady but kind. "Yes. You've already been there for them more than anyone else. You deserve to be recognized as their mother, and I know they already see you that way."

Tears spilled down Suzune's cheeks as she smiled, her heart swelling with happiness. She hadn't realized how much this meant to her until now, how much she had longed for a family of her own, a family that she could love and care for. And now, thanks to Kiyotaka, she was going to have that.

"Thank you," Suzune whispered, her voice choked with emotion. "Thank you so much, Kiyotaka."

Kiyotaka gave her a small smile, his hand still resting on hers. "You don't need to thank me," he said quietly. "You're doing this out of love, and that's the most important thing."

Suzune nodded, wiping away her tears as she smiled through her emotions. "I love them so much," she said softly. "And I love you, Kiyotaka. I couldn't have done this without you."

Kiyotaka's expression softened at her words, his heart warming at the sincerity in her voice. He reached out, pulling Suzune into a gentle embrace, holding her close as she cried tears of happiness against his chest. For a long moment, they stayed like that, wrapped in each other's arms, the bond between them stronger than ever.

Later that week, the paperwork was finalized, and Suzune officially became the legal mother of Gojo, Saya, and Aiko. When she told the kids, their reactions were nothing short of heartwarming. Saya had cried tears of joy, clinging to Suzune as she thanked her over and over again. Gojo, while more reserved, had smiled softly and given her a small nod, his quiet way of showing approval. And Aiko, in her usual mischievous way, had grinned widely and declared, "I knew you were my mom all along!"

Suzune had laughed through her tears, hugging all three of them tightly as they welcomed her into their lives in a new and official way. For the first time, she felt truly complete, her heart filled with the love of the family she had always wanted.

And as she sat with Kiyotaka later that night, the kids fast asleep in their rooms, she knew that this was only the beginning of their journey together as a family—a journey she would cherish for the rest of her life.
