I do not own anything of Skip Beat! This is what I wish that would happen in the recent chapters.

[Takes place after Chapter 205, page 22]
"Co-." Kyoko shouts.
Ren is surprised she recognizes him as the fairy prince. How can I explain this to her? "Mogami…" Ren mutters. I've been meaning to tell her about everything. Perhaps now is just as good of a time as any. Ren treads through the water towards Kyoko, looking down to avoid sea shells and her eyes. Now that he is close enough, he looks at Kyoko's face.
"Mogami,—"
Kyoko's expression changes to one of confusion. She recognizes his voice. "Tsuruga?"
"— let me explain. Please." Ren feels like he is going to lose her right now in this very moment. Please, understand. "Yes, it's me. Both of me."
Kyoko is completely lost in the conversation. Both? How- ? Why? Her mind is running in spirals.
"Tsuruga… and Corn."

-Beginning of Chapter 206-
Kyoko is completely shocked and still as a stone. Kyoko's mind is a scramble of explanations, trying to make sense of the situation. If he is Tsuruga and Corn, why didn't he tell me? Wait, isn't Tsuruga a stage name? Yeah, that's it. It's Corn just undercover. He didn't want to tell me because it would ruin his cover. Maybe his mission is over now and that's why he is telling me now. But… Kyoko's imagination continues to run wild.
Ren can see what's happening in her mind. He drops to the sand on his posterior. He bends a knee and rests his arm on it. He looks up at Kyoko and she shortly follows suit, sitting on her knees.
"My real name is Kuon. When I met you, your English wasn't perfect and called me Corn instead. I was born and raised in America, a completely other world than Japan." Kuon sighed, "I was struggling to become a great actor much like my father but he cast a shadow over me, one that I could not overcome myself."
Kuon looks to Kyoko to see how she is taking the information. She has a look of sadness and empathy. Kuon continues and smiles a little bit. "I remember those days that we played together. The memories make me smile when I think of you." He pauses and turns to the ocean as a darker look falls over his features. "My life grew darker as time went on though."
"How?" Kyoko asks. Kuon crossed his arms on top of his knee and rested his chin on his forearms. Kyoko's hands clenched in her lap.
"I did things I'm not proud of. Cain Heel is the embodiment of who was then." Kyoko's eyes widen in shock and horror. "This dark path I traveled down lead to the death of my best friend, Rick." Ren looks down in utter sadness. "My family says it wasn't my fault, but I can't help but blame myself." Ren's vision goes blurry and his voice becomes harsh. He closes his eyes to rid them of the tears. "I murdered my best friend."
Suddenly, he feels a warmth all around him. Not the warmth felt from the sun; something much warmer. He opens his eyes in surprise to see Kyoko hugging him on his side, both of her arms wrapped around his ribcage with her head resting on his shoulder. "Kuon" she whispers.
Kuon shifts to face Kyoko. Kyoko let's go of him only to be pulled back into an embrace with his face buried in her shoulder and hair. At first, she was surprised then hugs him back, one hand on his head and the other on his back.
