Chapter 13: Mom is Alive?

Third Person POV

"It can't be.." Rinto mumbled.

"I was raised by my grandfather, Mama's father, Dell Honne. He always told me that Mama and Papa are gone. Grandpa Dell said that my parents left me in his care, but the ones who entrusted me were some people in Red. Then, that day two years ago, they came to Grandpa's home looking for me. I was really longing for them because I was always bullied. I was happy to see them, but then assassins came after them and they were killed in front of my eyes."

"Lenka-chan, you okay?" Len asked. He was worried about Lenka's emotional outbreaks.

"I'm ready to face the truth." Lenka's eyes were teary. She looked at Rinto and the tears fell down. "No matter how painful."

Rinto looked down. He doesn't know what to do. 'Why now? Why did she have to be my sister when I already love her so much?'

"Rin-sama! Rin-sama!" a man in a black suit entered.

"What's the matter?"

"A witness has shown herself!"

"Rin-chan, I'll leave first. I'm getting tired. I'll come tomorrow to know more details. Ja, Rin-chan, Len-kun... Rinto-nii." Lenka said with a very weak smile. Rin approved and she left the room.

"I'll follow her. Don't think of me as an enemy anymore Rin, I have to find out the culprit behind this entire situation first. I don't intend on destroying your family anymore. I'll take my leave. Bye." Rinto followed. Rin smiled, having found peace in their former rival. But now, they needed to focus on the current situation.

A girl with short green hair in a nurse's dress entered.

"Good day, Ms. Kagamine."

Lenka was walking to their home when Rinto grabbed her hand. She faced him and was surprised seeing Rinto behind her.

"Rinto-nii..." she said and tears started to form slowly in her eyes.

Rinto pulled her into a hug. More tears flowed out of Lenka's eyes.

"I'm not going to be your brother, Lenka... I'm never gonna accept it..."

"But... We are-"

"I love you, Lenka!" Rinto said, surprising Lenka in the process. He slightly pulled away and looked into her eyes. Lenka felt his love in his gaze, and got herself locked into his gaze.

Rinto gently pressed his lips on Lenka's. Lenka was resisting at first, but then she slowly closed her eyes and gave in. She loved him too much that she disregarded the fact that they were siblings. After a while they pulled away.

"No matter how fate bring us apart, I will fight for you." Rinto says.

"I'll fight with you... I love you too, Rinto." she replied. Rinto wiped Lenka's tears and kissed her forehead.

They walked hand in hand as Rinto walked Lenka home.

"Good day to you, too. Who might you be?" Rin said.

"I am your mother's nurse. I know some things regarding your mom. My name is Gumi Megpoid."

"Pleasure meeting you, Gumi-san. What information may you share?"

"Lily Kagamine... is alive."

Tears formed on Rin's eyes. 'All along... She was alive? Why... Why didn't she show herself to me? Mom...'

Gumi then shifts her gaze to Len. "By any chance... Are you her lost twin brother?"

"Lost... twin brother?" Rin said. She was trembling as she spoke.

"You have a twin, Rin-chan. Apparently, a woman stole that child in the nursery. I just caught a glimpse of her. Your mom and I were the only ones who knew of your twin, and your mom has been looking for him. When your father and mother were assassinated, your mother survived. She asked me to hide her in order to become a witness when investigations were done."

"Bring me to Mom. Now."

"It's getting late, Rin-chan." Miku said worriedly.

"I'll go with her. I want to talk to Lily-sama about Mom." Len declared.

"You can take a car, but when we reach the farm and garden, we'd have to walk." Gumi warned. Miku prepared their things and they made their way to the place Lily Kagamine hides.

After an hour traveling, they reached the hiding place. Gumi led them to a hut. When they entered, a woman with long yellow hair was sweeping the floor.

"Lily-sama. We have guests." Gumi spoke. Lily shifted her attention to the guests and she had let go of the broom because of shock.

"Rin..?" Lily asks.

"Why Mom... Why?"

"Rin, darling... I'm so sorry. I can explain..."

"Answer me, Mom. Do I have a sibling?" Rin asks.

"A twin brother. You look alike."

Rin trembled but kept her composure. "Is it... him?" she points at Len.

"He's... Wait. Come here, Mr.", Lily says and Len followed suit.

Lily raised half of Len's shirt, showing his stomach. There was a stitch on his side. "He isn't my child. This is... Neru-chan's son."

"Neru always told me that her son looked like you, Rin. She said that she wanted the two of you to meet once I can let you out. But it seems like fate made you meet each other before us. What is your name, Mr.?" Lily says and then asks Len.

"Len Akita. Her right hand man." Len says plainly.

"I see. You know, Neru was my best friend. We were very close, Nero too. That's why when you had your disease when you were small, I did everything to help her. Soon when the Kagamine had gotten into a high rank, I didn't want to get her and her family involved. But in the end she still remained by my side and they sacrificed their lives to protect us."

"Mom... Why is she always so selfless..." Len mumbles.

"It's getting late, why don't you just stay over for the night and we shall talk more tomorrow." Lily invites. They agreed and stayed in a neighboring hut owned by Gumi.
