Chapter 1
“What are you talking about??!”
“I’m not a fool! I know you still have that secret relationship with that damn guy!”
“You know I didn’t even love you!”
“So what will you do?! Leave us?! How about our children?!”
“My children! Not Yours! They don’t even know you’re not their real father! Stop pretending Mito-chan!”
“They are my children also! So what if I’m not their real father?! I’ve been with them since you gave birth to them!”
“You’re such a waste! You know I don’t really give anything to you! Why are you doing this to me?! To us?!”
“Because I do really love you! But I have no enough patience for this! Go! Get out! But don’t you dare touch my children!”
Ada was there, staring blankly at her parents who were quarrelling at that time. Little by little, her eyes welled-up, even if she’s only 8 years old, she understood what was going on.
“Ada, come with me! I’ll bring you to your real father!” Ada’s mother held her hand, but she resisted. “I’m not going with you!” Her father, who was about to grab her, looked at her with teary-eyes, he can’t believe Ada would stay with him after the truth was revealed. “You’re such a cheater! I don’t love you anymore! Papa is my one and only father! There’s no one who can replace him! Go by yourself! I hate you!” Ada ran and went upstairs. She sat in her bed where his 5-year old younger brother was sleeping. She cried hard and can’t accept the fact that her mother did lie to them.
“You heard it, right? Get out!” Mito shouted at Megumi. Megumi started to cry, packed her things and left without a word. From that day onwards, they never heard any news about Ada’s mother, and they accepted the fact that they were abandoned by her; but not his younger brother, Sinichi. He still waits for their mother to come home.
Few weeks later, Mito-san got fired from his job. He became ill and day by day, he gets weaker and weaker. At the young age, Ada took care of his father and Sinichi. Mito-san refused to be brought in the hospital. He knows that he cannot bare it anymore. He’s ill and at the same time, depress that Megumi left them. He’s hopeless.
The day has come; unfortunately, Mito-san died. Ada and Shinichi mourned and grieved so much. Their aunt, Mimi, pitied them and asked them to stay at their house for she has no husband who would refuse and her children would be happy to be with them since the four of them are really close, but the two refuses. They wanted to stay in their house; they wanted to take care the only thing left by their beloved father. Aunt Mimi promised to check them everyday and would give everything they want if they will ask. After the funeral, they went home together with Aunt Mimi and her two children. As they approach the house, they saw 4 men standing outside the house.
“Excuse me, who are you?” Aunt Mimi asked.
“We are employees from the bank and we are here to claim this house.” one of the guys explained.
“What is this all about?” Aunt Mimi asked again with a little confusion.
“Mr. Mito Minamio failed to pay the bank for his loan and his collateral was this house. We do sent him a warning letter, didn’t he received it? By the way where is him? We need to talk to him personally.”
“But my father already died, can’t we have this house anymore?” Ada said, and her tears began to fall.
“We’re so sorry to hear that little girl. But we are just doing our job.” Another man stated with a soft voice.
“Can’t you just give the children time to enter and get their things inside?” Aunt Mimi requested to the men.
“Hai, we will let you get your personal things inside, but not the furniture, it is included in the collateral. Please don’t stay long. We will lock this house today.” The 3rd man explained.
They promise they won’t take long. They entered the house, Ada and Shinichi get their things; their photo albums, clothes, and other stuffs. Ada didn’t forget to get her father’s locket, inside the locket is their family picture. Aunt Mimi and her 2 children helped them. They were about to step out of the house when Ada noticed Shinichi stopped walking.
“What is it Shinichi?” Ada asked him.
“What will happen to us now nee-chan?” Shinichi asked as if he’s a lost puppy in the middle of a forest.
“I don’t know too, Shinichi-chan. I know you’re sad and somehow stress with what’s happening to us. But we’ll get through it, okay? Just trust me. I love you.” Ada explained to Sinichi and kissed his forehead.
“Don’t worry Shinichi-chan, you’ll be staying in our house, isn’t it great? You will now have me as your mother and your two cousins as your siblings.” Aunt Mimi told him, but Shinichi remained speechless.
Ada and Shinichi lived with Aunt Mimi, Misaki (same age as Ada, the younger daughter of Aunt Mimi) and Hikaru (Misaki’s older brother, 9 years old). Little by little, they get used to their new life. They go to same school together with their cousins. Misaki and Hikaru treated them as if they were their real siblings. But seems like Shinichi got traumatized with the problems they have encountered before. He’s not that talkative anymore and day by day, he got no more words to utter. Often times, he’s just staring at his mother’s picture. Ada got worried, and talk to his brother. Ada knocked at his brother’s room.
“Shinichi, are you there?”
No answer. Ada entered the room. He saw Shinichi staring at their mother’s picture.
“You miss her right?” Ada’s eyes began to well-up. “Don’t worry I’ll find her for you, just promise me you’ll get back to normal okay?”
Shinichi still remained silent, feels like Ada is talking to the air. Ada started to cried and hugged him tight.
From that day onwards, Shinichi remained silent. He became mute. Ada and other members of the family worried of his condition and brought him to the doctor.
“He’s suffering in what we called Psychological trauma, an emotional or psychological sickness, wherein a person experienced severe stress or life-threatening situation.” The doctor explained to them.
“What shall we do to regain his normal condition?” Ada asked worriedly.
“With due respect to you, may I know what happened to him that causes him to be in that situation?”
Ada with Aunt Mimi’s help stated what happened.
“I see. Now I know. Well, with your story, I think he needs his mother.”

After the check-up Ada got depress. Hikaru and Misaki comforted her.
“So what will you do Ada-chan?” Misaki asked.
“I don’t know Misaki-chan. I have to look for my mother.” Ada answered.
“But how?” Hikaru was so concerned with her.
“Someday, when I have a stable work, and …. The guts. I’ll do my best for Shinichi-chan.” Ada answered confidently.
9 years later
“Ada-chan!” Hikaru called out so he could reach Ada who’s walking really fast.
Ada stopped, smiled and waved at Hikaru. “Hurry! We’re late!”
They go to school together, have their lunch together, and go home together since Misaki has her own set of friends to whom she is always with. Anyone who doesn’t know that they were cousins could assume they are in a relationship. The two of them are really close since Hikaru decided to protect and take good care of her and Shinichi.
Hikaru always accompanies Ada to her room even though he’s late to his class.
“Study hard okay?” Hikaru smiled and patted Ada’s head.
“Hai, you too.” Ada smiled and entered her classroom. Her classmates are used to that scene. One of her classmate, Rei Edeline, approached her.
“Ada-chan, Sensei Kyota is not around. You’re lucky.” She smiled to Ada.
“Eh? Phew, I am really lucky Edeline-chan! Hehehe..” Ada was relieved.
“Uhm, Ada-chan, Hikaru-kun was your cousin right?” Edeline suddenly asked.
“Haiii! He’s my cousin and my bestfriend. Why did you suddenly asked?”
“Ah, nothing”, she looked in other direction and blushed “I see, that’s why he’s very close to you.”
“Hai, and he’s like an older brother to me. Anyways, why are you blushing? Don’t tell me you’re..” Ada was interrupted by Edeline.
“Nothing! I told you!” Edeline exclaimed. With that, the whole class turned to them. Ada laughed and the atmosphere suddenly changed. Edeline laughed too and they decided to talk more about Hikaru-kun.

The bell rang and as usual, Hikaru was waiting outside Ada's room.
"Ada-chan, looks like Hikaru-kun is waiting outside." Sonsaku Hakufu, Ada's closest friend approached her.
"Ahh hai! I'll go now! See you guys tomorrow!" Ada ran outside and Hikaru carried what she was handling. Edeline and Hakufu saw it.
"Ahh so sweet! Maybe if they are not related, they can be a good couple, what do you think Edeline-chan?" Hakufu giggled.
Edeline furrowed, "I don't know. Maybe? But still, they are cousins. Maybe Hikaru-kun is meant for other girl."

At the Yaotome's residence
"Kyaaaaaaaaaaa! That's so great ni-chan!" Misaki exlaimed in happiness.
"I know! And you will have a famous superstar brother! Isn't it great Ada-chan?" Hikaru asked Ada who looked very annoyed. Hikaru announced that he will become a Johnny's talent, and will start tomorrow.
"That's great. But how about your studies?" Ada seemed worried.
"The company requires me to transfer in Horikoshi Gakuen. One of my dreams." Hikaru said, looks like dreaming that he's already in that school.
"So does it mean I won't have anyone with me when I'll go to school? And going home?" Ada uttered with sad face.
"Of course not! I'm here." Misaki said with a bg smile on her face. "From now on, we'll be together morning 'til night." She added jokingly.
"Oh... Yes I have Misaki-chan. Can I ask a question?" Ada's face turned into an excited one.
"Nani?"
"Do they have any vacant job? I want to apply."
"Are you serious Ada-chan?" Misaki asked.
"Hai. Even just a part-timer. I wanted to earned money so I can start searching for my mother."
"I'll ask tomorrow if you want. So if there's one, I'll recommend you."
"Arigatou ni-chan. But please don't tell them that were cousins okay?"
"Nande? It would be a great help."
"I wanted to get the job not because of you but because I am who I am."
"Ohhhhhhh, okay. I'll update you tomorrow. Goodnight Ada-chan and Misaki-chan."
Hikaru said his goodnights to the girls and kissed them in their forehead. Ada-chan sleeps with her brother Shinichi to look and tend for him anytime. Now, she has the chance to earn money to search for their mother in able to cure his brother's sickness.
