Epilogue- A New Beginning:
Mia:
Never in my wildest dreams did I even think that Sophia and I would be free at last. I meant really free. We didn't have to worry about Ringmaster. We didn't have to worry about abuse or anything. Most of all, the nightmares had gone away. We were finally, completely, free.
If anyone would have told me when I was eleven that in a course of eight years that my parents would die, a new Ringmaster would come, the new Ringmaster would abuse me and my twin, that Ringmaster would rape the both of us, that we would live on edge and surfer, that we would escape to only be captured again, and then finally, we would leave the circus forever, I would have thought that the person was nuts. Well, actually we didn't leave the circus forever. Circus Of Horrors was just under new management AKA Phil and James.
Phil and James were the new circus owners and proud of it! Sophia and I often visited them with our families whenever they stopped by Japan and we always called them a lot. The rest of the circus, however, wouldn't stop messing with Sophia and I. They were always apologizing for not knowing, even now a year later. Sophia and I always said that it was okay though.
It was okay; everything was okay. More than that, everything was awesome. Life was awesome. Sophia and Takashi were still together and planned to get married in a year when they turn nineteen. Sophia taught gymnastics and was an excellent teacher. Takashi was a teacher of martial arts at his own martial arts facility since his little brother took over the family facility. I was extremely happy for them. I knew that they both loved every other very much and they were like soul mates. Sophia's eyes always lit up with so much love when she was looking at Takashi and he always returned that look. I even saw him admiring her when she wasn't paying attention and I wondered if Umehtio looked at me like that when I wasn't looking.
I hoped so since he was my boyfriend. I loved him a lot and he loved me. We were always together. He finally ditched the puppet after we graduated and switched his cloak for a black hoodie since he was trying to put up with his phobia. Though, he still had on the dark green wig, dark contacts, and enjoyed the dark arts. He owned a bookshop called Yin and Yang, well we owned it together and I picked out the title because I found it true for us. He was the Yang to my Yin. I had white hair and he had dark hair. We complimented each other. He was also the father of my child… Well, soon to be father of my child anyway. I put a hand on my stomach; I haven't told Sophia that I was pregnant yet. I was a bit scared to tell her and even Umehito doesn't know yet since I was scared because we aren't wed yet.
I briefly wondered if this feeling of fear was what Aki, Nori's fiancé, felt when she told Nori that she was pregnant. Aki was a sweetheart, but she was very blunt. She went well with Nori nicely. Their daughter was named Minako and she took after Aki with the red hair and blue eyes. I wondered what Umehito and I's child would look like- would he/she take after me or Umehito or both of us? And what would we name her or him? Still, if it worked out between Aki and Nori despite family disapproval.
With determination, I walked into the shop and stood behind the counter beside Umehito.
"Are you alright," he asked cautiously.
"No, I need to tell you something."
The customers at the counter watched with interest. Umehito coughed nervously,
"And uh…what is it?"
"I'm prego."
There was a thud and I looked down to see that Umehito had fainted. The customers burst into applause, cheers, and laugher.
"Congrats!"
"What a luck man!"
"I hope you guys do well!"
I smiled at them,
"Thank you."
I turned to Umehito, who was still passed out. Motioning for the customers to quiet down, I grabbed a pen and drew on his face. I took a quick picture and then started to work around Umehito to take care of the customers.
Sophia:
I smiled at my students,
"That's all for today."
They all bowed respectfully with large smiles. I loved teaching people gymnastics, though it took some time to get used to the few cheerleader quads that came from America to learn. I spotted Takashi standing at the back with a bouquet of flowers and I smiled.
"DeVeil-sama," a student giggled, "is that your boyfriend?"
"Fiancé," I answered with a smile.
The girls erupted into a fit of giggles. They were teenage girls after all, only a few years younger than me actually. I was just glad that the current group was the nicer girls instead of those mean girls. When I had mean girls in my class then I made sure that they knew that I was in charge and such behavior would not be tolerated. Mia said that I was scary when I get like that.
"Sophia," Takashi greeted as he walked up to me. He handed me the flowers and gave me a quick
I would never get used to his voice, his deep voice that sounded like it would be the voice of chocolate fondue- if it spoke that was. Oh my goodness, I'm spending too much time with my twin.
"Your sister called," Takashi continued.
"Oh? Then I'll be sure to call her," I smiled.
Takashi gave a smile back and gave me another quick kiss before he went outside. We did have lunch plans so I knew that he would wait until I was ready to leave.
"Class is dismissed," I pointed out to my students and they turned a bit flushed.
I smiled slightly and then continued to get ready to leave. I changed out of the black leotard into casual, yet stylish clothing- designer jeans, a long sleeved white and gray striped shirt, and a dark gray scarf. The clothes were given to me by the redheaded devils that were successful, rich, and popular fashion designers. I continued to be good friends with them, as well as the rest of the Host Club (plus Nori though he was more Mia's friend). Tamaki and Haruhi were engaged to get married- when they were twenty though. Kyoya had half ownership of his family's business; the other half belonged to one of his brothers. If I recalled correctly, Kyoya was set to marry a girl to help the business though I wasn't sure. Hunny had married a nice girl named Reiko that used to be part of the Black Magic Club.
A Few Years Later:
The good news was that I didn't kill Umehito for impregnating Mia before they were married and now I had a beautiful two-year-old niece named TsukioNekozawa. I found that fitting since Umehito called Mia his moonlit goddess and Tsukio meant, "moon child." She was a darling little girl with blonde hair that was very light in color and blue eyes. Umehito and Mia did finally marry last year, which Tsukio was the flower girl. It was a beautiful wedding, even if it had a lot of black.
Takashi and I did finally marry as well. I was now officially Sophia Morinozuka and our daughter was Yukiko Morinozuka. I loved the name Yukiko because it meant, "rare child," and she was a rare child. Like my twin and I, Yukiko was born with silver hair. Though she did have Takashi's dark eyes. She was beautiful and I loved her.
It just went to show that our new beginning to life was successful beyond out imaginations.
