"A pure heart is a spotless mirror in which infinite beauty are reflected."

A college student, a waitress and now pregnant. With no one to help her, desperation made her quit school. Kotoha now is a full time waitress at a small diner. the manager was kind enough to help a pregnant lady in need and the diner is short of help.

Kotoha mostly manages the cashier post while another girl does the waiting. On this particular night tho, the diner is empty. Her baby kept kicking which made her sigh in relief that there's no one there to notice her discomfort. She sat down behind the counter and began stroking her belly, shushing her little one to sleep and promises to feed him with tons of yummy food. humming to herself with the most cheerful tune she can think off that she hardly notice the chimes clanging with its door being opened.

"Hey lady! two cups of hot chocolate and a slice of cheese cake"

Kotoha immediately responded with a smile and began preparing their order.

"I can't believe that ugly old teacher gave us detention! oni-chan!"

"i bet the guy is sleeping on his cozy bed right now, snoozing away all the cares of the world. good for him! good for him!" said the guy, annoyance and envy clear in his voice.

"Good evening! here are your orders" Kotoha served them with the most gentleness smile. Seeing them so young made her think about her baby growing in the future. She couldn't help but to ask "If you don't mind me asking, what are you two children doing here at this time of the night?"

"I do mind!" the girl huffed and began eating her cheese cake

"Listen, we aren't here to dine and dash, we got money to pay " the older one replied.

"Oh! I'm sorry, I wasn't implying anything. just curious that's all." Kotoha bowed in apology when she was about to go back to her post the boy stopped her

"hey!" he pointed to her ever growing belly. "are you keeping it?"

Kotoha followed where he was pointing and she smiled the brightest smile which made the siblings stop and stare at the beauty of it.

"Yes"

It was a quiet night. Kotoha was just cleaning up the counter while whistling her cheerful tune.

Gyutaro(the boy introduced himself) ask for another 2 servings of hot chocolate. its already their third cup. She begun to wonder if they were waiting for someone or not, she wanted to ask but Daki (the little sister) kept giving her the nasty eyes.

As she placed the cups on the table she also offered them donuts. "on the house" she winked at them. Gyutaro blushed a little but nodded in thanks while Daki just faced the window as she pouted. Kotoha found it very cute and kept imagining her baby growing up in the nearest future.

"When is papa coming Oni-chan?!" Daki ask

" I already messaged him, he said his boss wanted an emergency meeting and he'll be late" grumbled Gyutaro.

"That stupid boss must have it great for getting whatever he wants in life. must be nice being the boss" Gyutaro began complaining "Doma is such a fool for always following his boss's orders!"

"Hey, Papa is just doing his best!" Daki begun defending

Kotoha watch at the siblings bickering with joy in her eyes. Wondering what it's like having siblings and a full family.

She was born an only child, her mother left the family leaving her behind with her father. Life is a struggle from day one. Her father was so kind and gentle, he works as a construction worker.

One particular day she had a fever and her dad went out to go and buy medicine but he never returned. Kotoha waited for her dad to return home but he never did.

Her fever got worst.

She doesn't remember much in detail after that. all she remembers is what the police and doctors said with the land lady who discovered her.

Apparently she was left alone for three days in the apartment room with a high fever. Kotoha was on the brink of death by then, thankfully the kind old land lady had extra keys to their room and opened it. She noticed that Kotoha's father hasn't returned and the months rent was due.

Her father can't be found and there were no relatives to take her, so Kotoha ended up being part of the government funded orphanage.

Kotoha stayed there till she was of age.

Effort really does pay off that she landed a scholarship in the nearest community college.

Love was deep and falsely too. Love was pure and impure. Her love was precious and she gave it away willingly... she was devoured in return.

Everything went downhill from there.

Everynight she was used and abused and she thought that was just how love works. But when that love gave fruit and all she could think about is the safety of that fruit she run away.

Knowing how much precious the life she and her ex created was more than any money, gold and richness that can be given on earth, but Nothing can come close at the realisation that THIS is what LOVE really is. The love of a mother to her child.

The door bells rang again signifying a customer coming in.

"Welcome to Donburi's Diner!"

"Good even—" Doma was in shock to see such beauty right Infront of him. They locked eyes noticing each others different eye colors. Kotoha's beautiful emerald greens and Doma's intriguing rainbow eyes.

such anusual and handsome eyes he have...

"Papa! we're over here!" Daki waved at him. He immediately went towards where the siblings are and begun apologizing for them.

Gyutaro was a complaining grump "must be nice having a meal with the bosses, making us wait here"

Daki was more welcoming, hugging her fathers arm with delight. "despite being late, oni-chan at least papa was true to his word!"

"so sorry for making you guys wait, Muzan was causing quite a ruckus" the blond man in a red and black suit laughed it off playfully, explaining how 'scary' his boss was, 'decapitating' each 'useless' employees and how a 'bloody' mess it was that thankfully the boss' secretary came and drag him out before everyone 'lost their lives.'

"He has such a funny way of explaining things to his children" Kotoha thought that she couldn't suppress her giggles.

All three heard her, especially the tall handsome father.

Doma smiled...
