Authors note: #4 . . .Thinking of a song for Miyako was really hard. by the way, I'd think the fact that everyone [the characters] is older than normal is just expected,
(I mean, older, as in married older) and goes without saying. And I think 'Be Like That' would be a song depressed people listen too, I do.
Miyako is sitting in a chair, in the apartment she and Ken live in. She looks depressed. Ken goes over to comfort her. She refuses. Ken is confused, but leaves.
She scribbles down a note, grabs her coat and leaves.
It's late. Ken finds the note, reads it, and sighs as he falls into a chair. He sits there for a few moments to reflect on the day.
She never asks for help, he thought, she shuts me out.
Ken walked in on her, she looked pathetic, sad. 'Be Like that.' by 3 Doors Down echoed in the room. Ken sighed, "Miyako, if you would just let me-"
"I'm fine, Ken."
Ken started for her, "Miyako, please, let me help."
She turned away, started to cry. "Oh, Ken."
Ken took her in gently into her arms. She's always like this he thought. He turned her chin toward him. "Miyako, please tell me what's wrong. I love you. I want to help you." She grabbed him and sobbed into his shoulder, " I love you to, Ken." Ken didn't understand, and it started to worry him. She's had these mood swings for a while now he thought. We've been married over a year, and, she stills keeps things from me.
"Ken, I love you . . . I - I'm"
"What? Please, tell me."
"I'm going to have baby, Ken. I was too scared to tell you, I thought you'd be angry." She grabbed him and resumed crying.
"What?" he laughed. "Angry? Miyako . . . I love you! I'm happy!." She looked up and slowly smiled. "This is wonderful, Miyako! I love you." He kissed her. "I love you too, Ken."
*Yay, even the said one's have happy endings! *
