Kyoko's baby bother! (A Skip Beat! Fanfic)

Family Matters.

"I'm finally free Ren." he gave into his heart at that moment holding her with both arms as she held him back.

Never again would Mogami Kyoko cry for Mogami Saena. Her tears would be saved for those she cared for and those that cared for her in return.

The knock at the door was smart and powerful. Sebastian, who had been waiting for just that opened the door. Ren stood there tall and proud.

"Please, if you would be so kind, we are ready to continue now." Lory and Maiko nodded ascent and re-entered the office. Kyoko stood by the large glass window looking out. As Maiko approached the desk, she saw a tall, proud young lady with no sign of tears on her face but a slight smile as she surveyed the world below her feet.

I doubt I will ever truly understand these people. Maybe it is something that they require to enter the world of show business. The simplest word I can think to describe it is 'Guts.'

Kyoko turned to them all as they sat now in the comfortable sofas instead of around the desk.

"I am sorry to have kept you waiting. I needed time to collect my thoughts." she bowed low to Lory and Maiko who just shook her head.

"Of course Mogami-san, it is to be expected after the shock you received." said Maiko wondering how the sobbing teenager could be so calm after receiving such a letter. She felt she would need months, if not years to recover if she had received such a thing.

"Thank you for your concern Yuka-san, but I'm OK now. Though I would like to get a few things straight," she sat down on the sofa next to Ren crossing her legs. In an elegant manner she smiled a warm smile.

"Please tell me more about my little brother." Maiko couldn't help but return the smile that the young star had offered her.

"Oh, he is very sweet. We are currently looking after him in our Tokyo branch. His eyes are very much like your own. He has straight black hair and as I said he will be 6 months old in 3 days. He is a healthy happy little boy..." Ren saw the shock in Kyoko's eyes as he too realised. It seemed she and the president had realised too, glancing at the calendar he checked today's date Wednesday 22nd of May so that meant,

"Sorry for cutting in, but could you please tell me what day Toru's birthday is?" asked Kyoko as she shifted a little in her seat.

"Oh of course, how silly of me, Toru is a Christmas baby, he was born on the 25th of December." she watched as all their faces showed the same shocked expression.

"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?" Kyoko chuckled slightly, looking at Maiko.

"No, you said nothing wrong. It's just interesting that I now share my birthday with my little brother." this time it was Maiko who was shocked as Lory laughed.

"Well,I think that's just excellent .Maria wanted another big party this year. This way we get to celebrate with you all together on the same day." Ren nodded, not as enthusiastic. Checking Kyoko's expression, he saw the pain resting behind her eyes, she was an amazing actress but again this must be a blow for her.

She's probably thinking that she wasn't even good enough that her mother had to have the second child the same day to block out the first one's memory.

"Well, I suppose that will be fine but now we need to talk about the care arrangements." This was where Ren stepped in for the first time.

"You can not expect a rising star like Kyoko-san to leave her position for 7 months until she is of age that is just silly. She has been living by her own means for over 2 years already. If her mother hadn't passed away she would have continued to do so." Maiko had been warned by the president that this may occur. Gathering her wits, she answered him with the authority of the law which she upheld,
