"Who's My Daddy?"
(Best Friend)

Beta Reader: Heartlessly Awesome, thanks for always helping me!
The person inside the elevator heard the child's voice and that person's eyes locked on the two.
"K-Kyoko?" A mild feminine voice almost shouted due to surprise.
Kyoko blinked few times then dashed to the owner of that voice and aimed for a hug, leaving the curious Moru. They were now standing inside the elevator.
"Moko-san!" she yelled as she squished the black haired girl.
Moko-san, also known as Kanae Kotonami:Kyoko's first girl friend.
Kanae watched as Kyoko hugged her like there was no tomorrow.
"Mou, you haven't changed at all." She commented on her childishness.
Kyoko just stayed silent and smiled at her; she really missed her.
After some greetings and such, Kanae's attention turned to the kid.
"Who's that kid? Did you leave showbiz just to be a nanny?" She asked, obviously directing the question to Kyoko.
"Hizuri Ken, my son." Kyoko patted Moru-chan's head and ushered him to introduce himself.
"Ano, I'm Hizuri Ken my mom calls me Moru. Pleased to meet you, M-Moko-san." he said as he bowed with respect to Kanae.
"Moru-chan, she's your aunt." Hearing this, Kanae was surprised. She didn't even expect Kyoko to have a boyfriend moreover, a son.
She leaned to Kyoko to whisper something and the latter immediately replied, "No, he's my biological son."
She shifted her body to face Moru-chan, "Moru-chan, I'm Aunt Kanae how are you?"
"I'm fine Kanae-san."
"Mou, how old are you?" she asked again, as if trying to make the conversation go on.
Moru lifted the six fingers of his hands "Five."
"Ah, where's your Daddy?"
"Daddy? Who's that?" Moru asked. Kanae was rendered speechless.
The elevator opened.
"So, Moko-san, where are you going?" Kyoko is trying to change the topic.
Kanae smirk, an evil smirk to be precise. "Accompanying my best friend."
"Aw, you're really sweet, Moko-san!" Her hands lifted, covering her face and making some dreamy expressions.
'She bit the bait.' Kanae thought.
Kyoko bought a cute scarf as per request of her son. They wandered all over the mall together with Kanae. As planned, Kyoko gave no time for Kanae to ask questions regarding the unsettled matter earlier.
Moru obviously enjoyed their time. And now, they entered a cosmetic boutique. Kyoko really loved cosmetics, and until now she still idolizes it.
Meanwhile...
"Ren, is that Ka-Kotonami-san?" Yashiro asked the male beside him. Apparently, due to some request Takarada Lory sent them to the mall to buy some materials for his costume. And of course, even if Ren didn't want to he had no choice but to agree.
Ren nodded and smirked a little. "When it comes to Kotonami-san, you're reaction is unusual."
Yashiro failed to hide his embarrassment. He was caught on act. He glanced at the direction where Kanae-san was: the boutique. Behind the transparent glass, he could see her clearly. Wait, she has a companion. She rarely has one since Kyoko left. He stopped walking and stood in a daze.
Feeling that no one is beside him anymore, Ren looked around only to see Yashiro staring at Kotonami-san with admiration. He opened his mouth, planning to annoy him again when he saw Kotonami-san's companion: A black-haired female whose hair reached below her shoulders. He could only see her back. He waited for a while to confirm who is it.
'Mogami-san'? He blinked as he looked again to them but found no one.
Were his eyes just playing tricks on him?
Yashiro-san grabbed his attention, he noticed that Ren is acting a little strange but didn't bother to pay much attention for it is only a little matter.
"Three chocolate cakes and iced teas." She ordered to the waitress.
Sitting down while waiting for their food, Kanae started to open her lips
"Tell me everything." She demanded with an evil aura.
"Moko-san, err."
"Mou, I'll give you two choices. You will tell me or I'll force you? Remind you, better choose the former to prevent blood shed." She said calmly but threatening to Kyoko's eyes.
'There goes the manipulative Moko-san' Kyoko thought as she sweat dropped.
She took a deep breath then told her about Moru's father.
"I always call him Moru because it was one of his first word."
"He's Tsuruga-san's child," she gripped her handkerchief tightly.
"Did you tell him?" Kanae wanted to know.
"No, he doesn't know and he doesn't need to." Kyoko said in a low voice, suppressing her tears.
"Okay, I'll just ask you when you're ready to talk it out." Kanae realized that she should give her time, enough time to think about it.
They ate and parted at the train station and promised to meet again next time.
Moru slept in the whole ride back home. When they arrived, she lifted him and brought him to his bedroom. He must be tired.
Before she closed the door, she heard Moru mumbled "Daddy" in his sleep.
Exiting from her son's bedroom, she took a long bath. She was feeling tired and wanted to retire for the night.
Her phone rang; she paused for a moment before she answered the call.
"Hello, Shotaro."
"Geez. How many times do I need to tell you to call me Sho?" the person in line replied obviously annoyed by his given name.
"How's your day?"
"Same as always, we met Moko-san."
"Him?"
"No, I'm not planning to meet him! You idiot!"
"He needs to know. You're really stubborn."
"He doesn't need. We're not even related!" she replied shouting.
"Eh, are you trying to convince yourself or me?"
"Shotaro! I know that you're smirking!"
"So bye. I got to go, you know what's going on right?"
"Yeah." then he ended the call.
It's dark in her room, only the lights illuminating the moon made it brighter.
How could she tell him? He doesn't need to know, right?
