Mori smiled softly. "Me too babe." He started to doze.

Leah yawn and closes her eyes.

Soon Mori dozes off.

When the morning came, Ayama roused from her sleep when her children started to cry. Trying to move she found she couldn't. Why? Two girls slpt at either side of her.

Ayama smiled softly. She kissed both their heads before sliding out from the bed to shush her twins.

Kagome continues to sleep, snoring softly just like her father.

Ayama smiled softly and took both Haru and Anei into her arms before walking downstairs.
Had Kentaro come home last night?

Kentaro on the couch in his old apartment. He didn't think he could go back hiome for a while. He held his head in his head thinking of how he shamed his family and disgraced his wife with what he did. He sighs, he hurt the one person in the world that meant the most to him.

Ayama placed the children in their seats and went about feedin them.

Kentaro looks to the phone. He wanted to call her and tel her how much he was sorry, but he figured she didn't want to hear him right now.

Ayama laughed and cleaned up Anei's face. She glanced around the room. She shouldn't be worried about him, but she was.

Kentaro stared at the phone intently, "Maybe just one call...."

Ayama wipped Harus face too. "Are we all full?"

The twins giggled.

Kentaro picks up the phone and dials her.

Ayama picked up the phone. "Hello?"

Kentaro takes a deep breath, "Ayama....."

Ayama sat frozen, she changed the phone to the other ear. "Where are you?"

"At one of my apartments..." Kentaro replies.

"Alright." Ayama said. "So, when are you going to be home?"

"I don't know. I just know that I'm really sorry Ayama. And I never meant to hurt you. If I hadn't have been drunk it never would have happened." Kentaro says in earnest. "I'll take full responsibilities for my actions." Kentaro sighs sadly, "If you want to leave me I'll understand."

Ayame watched the movie intently.

"I've thought about it." Ayama said. "But, I've decided that I'm not going to do that. You can come home nd... We'll work it out. Talk about it and until you've made it up to me. He was my own son Kent! So Until you've made it up to me, your sleeping on the couch. The Twins miss you."

"Is Kagome still there?" Kentaro asks.

"Yeah. Sleeping." Ayama sighed. "You didn't just betray me. You betrayed her too."

"I know...and as long as she's there I won't go home." Kentaro replies. "She'll kill me."

Ayama looked to the floor. "I don't know when she's leaving. Could be this afternoon, could be in a week. She's free to stay here as long as she wants."

"As long as she's there I won't go home. I know her well enough to know that if I were to come home now I'll be a pile of ashes." Kentaro replies.
