◇A month ago.....◇

That day, an obituary occurred. The fate of the little baby girls got accursed. Little babies who could barely speak was awaken from sleep; Akamatsu Maria, Akamatsu Himiko & Akamatsu Ezero came downstairs and experienced extreme horror of losing their parents. Maria held the little ones and had their eyes closed in the crowd. One of her aunties obstructed her eyesight. She looked at the maid servant and summoned.

-Hey, you there. Come here.

-Yes, ma'am.

-Take these little ones upstairs. Prepare them.

The maid servant nodded and took the callous babies; little Ezero in arms, Himiko at flank and holding Maria by hand straight to their bedroom.

"Half an hour passed...."

The maid servant brought them back. The memorial is prepared. The prayer is arranged through Shinto rituals and is progressing. She pushed Maria towards open coffin; parents lying there. Advanced at once with Himiko and Ezero.

Ezero cried out as the duo.

-Da—Da—Dada—!

-Ma—Mama!

But no response. It looked very brutal the way they cried out. They little ones' stared at the faces of Mr. and Mrs. Akamatsu for the last time. Yet, trembled ceaselessly. In the presence of the kinsfolk, they were performing the last doings for the salvation of souls.

Meantime, a gorgeous lady; wearing a rosy red outfit, predicted to be in her 20s, approached. She looked at them with unintentional sadness.

-Dear, say goodbye to mommy and daddy.

Maria looked at her with confusion. The lady hold her; percussing a little on her nose. A sign of restlessness blackened little Maria's face.

-Wh-Why?

-Uh~Your parents will sail off to a long journey, my dear.

-Am—Am I not coming? I—I wanna go....

She got shocked seeing Maria's stubbornness.

-Dear....don't be stubborn. They'll be back....just you wait.

-Re—Really?

She nodded with a concerned mentality concealed underneath synthetic brightness.

-Yay! Mama and Dada will be back soon! I'll tell—Tell Hiko-chan and Ezo-chan!

Suddenly, someone summoned her. She bade farewell sweetly and rushed away. Later, the maid servant left due to repetitive calls from the guests. At that time, the question was, pointing at the relatives; standing there "Who is going to take responsibilities for these children?"

-Come on, I can't take them in. I already have three, next month the fourth is coming. Look at my problem!

-Look, I'm not married. How can I foster these little kids? I'm a bachelor! And I can't afford their expenditure.

-The kids are now orphans, none is going to provide money for their living. These days, our family business isn't going well. We'll be bankrupted sooner or later.

The result for the children showed negative. Look at Almight's will, suddenly, someone; wearing coat, files on hand entered into the room. They glanced at him.

-Konnichiwa, I'm Nakamura Shou, family lawyer of Akamatsu. I have come to finalise the owner of the properties left by Mr. Akamatsu Keiji.

Sounds of mumble echoes. Among the relatives a rich couple approached. They lady put her hands on Maria and the gentleman carried both Himiko and Ezero.

-Worry not. We have these babies as ours.

-How sweet, aren't they? We'll love them as our biological daughters.

The lawyer shaked his spectacle and mysteriously glared at the couple. Further he beckoned to persue to his office. The lady ordered maid servant to pack their belongings. Without hesitation they took the babies in and left by car carrying unrevealed intentions.

◇|K͜͡a͜͡t͜͡s͜͡u͜͡r͜͡a͜͡ R͜͡e͜͡s͜͡i͜͡d͜͡e͜͡n͜͡c͜͡e͜͡|◇

The journey to new abode seemed far away. During night they reached there. The gentleman left. She entered with the babies. There, two children older enough welcomed them but stammered surprisingly.

-Welcome back—Huh? Who are they?!

-How can you bring hedgehogs? You don't love us, mom, dad!

Maria curved her eyebrows. The lady looked at them gently. She tried to convince them but they weren't the ones listening.

-Sweetie, don't be angry. These are your sisters. Little Maria, Himiko and Ezero.

-No! No way!!

-We're just your daughters. Not they!

The lady gave a furious look at her daughters; beckoning to shut up. They unwillingly did as said.

-Fine.

She looked at the newly brought babies then to hers with an excited look. She indicated.

-Dear, this is your big sister Gina. And this is your younger sister Mariko.

She immediately made Maria and Gina shook hands. And Himiko and Mariko. Gina and Mariko looked at them.

-Hey there, little Maria.

-Hi~Himiko.

The lady smiled at them. Gina and Mariko glared at them as if they will kill the babies whenever they have the chance.
