" So it's my turn... Let's see... It's not like that I have a liking for kids anyway so I'll make this brief.
Kotori told us she would be having a baby in nine months. The interesting part was how Umi was able to take a huge leap none of us have had the guts to do, even though Nozomi and Eli were more affectionate in public.
When I saw Honoka for the first time, my chest filled with warm and butterflies began to grow in my stomach. Honoka was just a baby, but the energy she emitted and her passion for idols were impressive. It was sometime around now that I had the idea of returning back to creating music on my piano, all because I wanted to return to what I truly wanted. Even though I've had a busy schedule due to medical school, it didn't stop me from diving back into aspirations.
Kotori and Umi are lucky to have her. She is the new sunshine in their house. I hope her smile continues to brighten our days. - Maki Nishikino

"IT'S MY TURN!" said the blue-haired girl passionately, who possessed two cards on her hands. She believed she never showed off what she was feeling during the game called 'old maid'. Her determination to win this round was written on her unsatisfied face. She yearned for her righteous and honorable victory in their 32nd round, yet her wife still took the right card and left Umi dumbfounded.
It was already past midnight. A loss could've been accepted, so they would be able to prepare themselves for the weekend more healthier and zipper with Honoka. Umi demurred strictly, gathering herself up to a new round. Kotori was rather crying out. A need of sleep was soon satisfied, otherwise she would get Umi into their bed with another purpose (for distractions!). Then they could manage to sleep.
"Umi-chan, can we stop right now? It's too late to play card games," Kotori said, whimpering aside. Eyes pleaded. Sure, words would work on Umi unless she would understand the game. She had been missing important points.
Never ever be nervous around your opponentsDon't show your purpose: Be elusive Play with their mind to change their ideas: BluffDiscern your own purpose: Win
Well, lacking those four properties what thwarted Sonoda Umi being a perfect Yamato Nadeshiko model. She definitely looked like a loser especially when she was in daze. At least her wife was able to enjoy with this side of her showing weakness at those times. How could you play games at 2:20 am for the Idol Gods' sake?
When would she give up, was what Sonoda Kotori asked herself with a sleep-deprived mind. She was about to doze off on their bed, but her Umi-chan still weirded out how to win.
Apathy? Nani sore?
Before deciding which card she chose, she'd ruminated on them. On the other side, Kotori was on the verge of deep sleep. Her eyelids began to droop.
An idea popped into Umi's head as her eyes lit up with passion to win this round. Then suddenly, Kotori's head weighing upon Umi's chest made her almost provoke until she realised Kotori didn't look at her cards nor cheating. She had dropped off without a fuss.
Umi took her by shoulders as she laid down her wife on their bed and spread the cover onto her.
"I guess it's my win then," she produced a soft speech without any complaint and kissed her wife's forehead.
"Honoka-chan,... Honoka-chan," Kotori mumbled. That reminded Umi to check her daughter in her room.
There were two Umi you would say what types of: Mrs. Serious Business and Dear Adorkable. There was this pleasant time Kotori would be eager to watch only: Her Umi-chan's pitifulness. Her strict personality faded away with Kotori's gentle 'Please' many times so Kotori called her 'Dear Adorkable'.
