Why does
my heart cry?
Roxanne
Feelings I can't fight
Roxanne
You
don't have to put on that red light
Roxanne
You don't have
to wear that dress tonight
Roxanne
His eyes upon her
face
His hand upon her hand
His lips caress her skin
It's
more than he can stand

It was quiet, but not too quiet. People were walking around outside of the door to the lavender room. Kyoko had the most colorful room in the house. It was lavender and white. The rest of the building was white, black, red, or yellow.
Kyoko had lavender paint that ended halfway down the wall. It turned to a pretty white color then. Her carpet was white and had a red wood peeking out around the edges. She had white dressers against the wall. There was one big window across from her bed.
Her bed had white sheets and a lavender comforter and pillow. There was a see-through canopy around it.
Kyoko lay awake in the sea of blankets. She had woken up about an hour ago and she just laid there. Thoughts ran through her head about Tamaki and Kyouya.
They were fighting over her.
Well, not really. Neither one said 'I hate you because of her and I will fight for her' but it was obvious that Tamaki was thinking that way.
It didn't seem to affect his hosting abilities. He tried them on Elaina and Kai before they left the summer house. Then her thoughts wandered over to Kana, the little girl, and how she never really played with her. The only ones who actually got any time with her were Hikaru and Hunny. Hunny would be graduating soon as would Rin and Mori.
She began thinking of those two. It was obvious there was something between them. Rin had kissed him on the cheek! She never showed affection like that. Mori was a nice guy, too. He was scary at times, but Rin was, too. He would definitely protect her. Kyoko was glad that Rin found someone; she needed to be happy after all that happened that year. She would go to college and then maybe marry him and start a family! That would be wonderful!
"Oh!" Kyoko sat up, recalling the piece of music Rin asked for. She wanted to find it and put it in her bag before she forgot.
She stood up and walked to her dresser. She rooted through it until she pulled out an orange dress and slipped it on. It had a pink flower patter up her side.
She grabbed a brush and yanked it through her auburn locks. Her eye twitched as she pulled her hair; she was never good at it.
Finally she looked presentable, so she walked down the hall to her mother's room. She always felt intimidated by those giant Oak doors that went all the way up to the ceiling. She knocked.
"Yes?" Came the voice of her mother, Sachiko.
"Uh, Mom? It's me, can I come in?"
"Yes, Dear. Come on in."
Kyoko opened the door and stepped inside. Her mother was sitting on a couch with a photo album in her lap.
"I was wondering where that score for Rin went to…"
"Oh! Yes, I'll get it for you."
She laid the album on the table and walked into a closet.
Kyoko walked to the table and looked at the photo book.
In the middle of the page was a picture of two people. They looked so much alike, that it was obvious they were related. Both were exceptionally beautiful. It was a woman and a little girl who was no more than six.
Kyoko liked looking at the picture for some reason. It felt very sentimental to her. She had no idea who the people in the picture were, but she felt attached to the woman.
The woman was in a light blue yukata and had dark brown, red tinted hair that was tied up in a bun. The little girl wore a light yellow yukata. She had the same hair as the woman, but it was lighter and redder. It almost looked like Kyoko's.
She noticed that at the bottom there was small writing.
Keiko and Kyoko, new years.
Who was Keiko?
That girl couldn't be Kyoko…
She was adopted, how could her mother have a picture of her before she was ten? That was when her earliest memory was from.
-/-/-/- OMG another flashback!-/-/-/-
Kyoko was sitting alone in snow. She was in a dress and wore a thin jacket. A woman walked up to her, "Little girl, are you lost?"
Kyoko's wide violet eyes looked into wide brown ones of the woman.
"Yes…"
"Do you know where you live?"
"No…"
"What's your name?"
"I don't know…"
"What?!" The woman grabbed her shoulders. Kyoko started crying. "I can't remember anything." She said. The woman looked a little sad and said, "I'll take you to a friend of mine and she'll get you a nice home with a wonderful family.
"Okay."
The woman took Kyoko's hand in hers and they walked through the snow together.
-/-/-/- END FLASHBACK! -/-/-/-
Kyoko stared at the photo. The woman in the blue Yukata looked a lot like the woman from the snowstorm… maybe she knew her before she lost her memories.
Her mother walked back into the room and dropped the music over the photo. Kyoko jumped up and stared at the smile of her mother's.
"Here it is," She said.
Kyoko blushed and asked, "Who are they?"
Sachiko sighed and sat on the couch behind the book. Kyoko sat across from her.
"That woman is…"
"Is who?"
"Your mother."
"Silly!" Kyoko started, "You're my mother. My old mother is dead!" (she just assumed this)
"No, she isn't. She's alive and well and I know where she is."
"WHAT?!"

A/N Oooh, I've been planning this for a long time. I thought that people may have forgotten that she had amnesia and was adopted. In the next few chapters it'll become clear what exactly happened in Kyoko's past.
Please remember Rin's coughing from her chapter, it gets rather important.
Adieu!
