On Music and Love

CHAPTER TWENTY: BROKEN DESTINY

Keito was stretching at the garden of the Jimusho early that Saturday morning. He just couldn't believe the turn of events. His mother agreed on marrying Lee Sungmin this time.

He blew some air and sighed. He opened his canned soda and watched as the people on the streets pass his way.

"Ohayo." He heard a cute voice said.

A girl was staring at him. She had a long wavy ebony black hair. She was wearing huge black-rimmed glasses with a tinge of pink on the sides. She was quite cute. She has perfect nose that is comparable with Yama-chan and small lips that was like those of Yuri-kun.

He had met the girl before, he was sure of that. "Ohayou." Keito stood up and greeted her.

"Watashiwa Choi Karina desu." She said.

Keito nodded his head.

"You are Keito, right?" she asked in English.

Keito stared at her in curiosity but he nodded.

The girl became formal. "I just want to tell you that please treat Sungmin appa nicely." She said.

"Appa?" he asked. As of what he heard, the man didn't have any child.

"He is my stepfather and I don't want to see him lonely anymore." She said.

Keito's eyebrows twitched.

"Ever since he came here in Tokyo, I haven't seen him smile anymore. He was always lonely and he was telling me that he was regretting every thing that he had done."

"Why are you telling me this?" Keito asked.

"Because I think that appa didn't do anything that he should regret." She said staring at his eyes. "He was a good man, you know. He helped a lot of people in the industry."

Keito laughed sarcastically and looked away. "He did." He admitted. "But he left his own son to rot for 18 years." He said bitterly.

"But he was always thinking of you." She said.

Keito smiled bitterly at her. "You don't have to worry anymore, my mother agreed to marry your stepfather." He said and walked away.

Karina grabbed his arm as he was walking away. "But then, how about you?" she asked.

"I just want okaasan to be happy." Keito said and pulled away.

"Why do we have to move?" Keito asked Mihra that afternoon as she asked them to pack their things.

"Because Sungmin found a really good house, it was a lot bigger than this one." Mihra informed them.

"But I love it here." Keito complained.

Mihra touched his cheek. "I know, honey but you will love that house more. There is this huge studio where the two of you can practice and you will have big rooms just like those on TV."

Daiki pouted. Mihra pulled on his chubby cheeks and kissed his forehead. "Go ahead pack your things.

Daiki stomped away obviously pissed off.

"You too." Mihra said and gave Keito a warm hug.

Their things were loaded in a truck the very next day. The members of the group learned about that and they were shocked as well. Keito and Daiki were practically their sponsors already since their father will help in producing them.

Keito and Daiki gaped at the huge house where they stopped. It had a huge garden and white marble staircase leading to the entrance.

Lee Sungmin and Karina greeted them and ushered them inside.
