And we finally see a heart-to-heart talk between Max, Saori and Yuki after everything that had happened.

Concern and Comfort

By the next morning, Max and Saori were already up early and just sat on the living room downstairs as everyone else is asleep and they're waiting for Yuki to come downstairs and have a little talk with her and soon enough, they see Yuki come downstairs and Saori said to her, "Good morning, Yuki."

"Morning, mom. Morning, dad." Yuki said, looking at them with a half smile.

"Sleep well?" asked Max.

"Yes, I have." Yuki replied.

Max nodded at that and he said to her, "We want to talk to you for a second. Have a seat."

Yuki was a little nervous about what's going on and as she sat down and figured that this was something serious because she can sense the mood coming in and she asked, "Am I in trouble?"

"No, you're in any trouble whatsoever. We just want to talk...about what you went through." Max replied.

Once that subject hit in, Yuki could tell that this would be the release of everything she had been keeping for so long and she lets out a deep sigh as she looked at them in the eye and said to them, "I'm so sorry for not telling you guys."

"Why didn't you tell us about it? We've been worried about you all year long." Max asked.

"I wanted to tell you guys so many times. I really wanted to...but Kuzan's threat that he might kill you, mom and my loved ones was so huge that I didn't want to put you at risk. I had no other choice, even though it was the dumbest choice that I had ever made." Yuki replied.

Saori could empathize with what she said and she told her, "When I found out that you were hurt and being in captive with that monster, I felt that I had failed you as a mother for not knowing sooner."

Yuki came over to her mother's side and she gently nuzzled her mother and said, "You didn't fail me. If anything...I failed you as a daughter for letting this guy control me. Kuzan told me that I'm a disappointment and a disgust to you guys and that I brought shame to the family."

"Yuki Jiraki Bushido-Akio Okami...you are not a shame to the family. You've never been a shame to all of us. That guy that hurt you and told you all those lies...he's the one that should be shamed. We still love you and we always have been. Your mother and I have always been proud of you and you've filled us with joy...since the day you were born. I've always called you my sweet sunshine because you've always brought light into our lives and you still are." Max said, rubbing her forehead in comfort.

"I've been through the same thing you have, Yuki. A different man with the same agenda as Kuzan's claimed that I was his wife and all he did was treat me horribly, control me, manipulate me and abuse me with everything he's got and raped other girls. I almost got raped until your father rescued me. If it wasn't for him, I would've died and you and your siblings wouldn't be here. Your father and uncle gave that monster what he deserved and I appreciate them for what they did. My point is you've got to be strong and stand up for yourself." Saori answered.

Max nodded at this and said, "Listen to your mother. We're still here for you and we love you. We're just really happy that you're okay."

Yuki's eyes welled up with tears and she hugged both of her parents tightly and Max rubbed Yuki's head for comfort and kissed her on the cheek while Saori nuzzled her and it shows that they're still family and that they still love each other and it shows that pillar of strength in the face of horrible experiences that made Yuki feel better.

"I love you guys so much." Yuki said, crying.

"We love you too." Saori said.

"Don't hide anything from us anymore, okay? I want you to promise us from now on, you tell us everything that happened to you or where you're going. I'm not gonna be like your uncle, just spying around everywhere you go. But I do want you to make some wise choices." Max said.

"Yes, sir." Yuki answered.

Max nodded at that and he smiled a little and said, "All righty. I'm gonna head to work, but I'll be home a little early."

"Okay." Yuki said.

Max got himself up, then kissed Saori on the cheek as he made his way to the workshop with peace of mind and Yuki sat down with her mother as they talk about everything and deep down inside her, she'll always appreciate everything that they said and will take it to heart and she hopes that Kuzan will leave her alone for good.

Sweet family moment. Stay tuned to see more!
