"For some reason you look familiar to me, there's something telling that we should exchange numbers, what do you say, Akira-San?"

#AiHoshini#B-Komachi

Ai's eyes widened in the post and tries to explain herself.

"Oh, Akira-San? Well, I suppose we exchanged numbers because he looked someone familiar to me before-"

Ichigou closes his phone and sighed deeply. He shouts.

"Whatever, but exchanging numbers? What kind of connection do you really have with that, Akira guy? And what if he's really not related to you-"

Ai leans closer to Ichigou and smiles.

"Well, isn't it better that I can just call him and confirm his identity?"

Ichigou was sturttled,he regains his composure.

"Even so, what if he's a hacker and expose your location?"

Ai went back into her sit, still smiling for some second. She them looks up, picking her finger in her chin.

"What?! Really? I never thought of that?"

Ichigou was more annoyed and accidentally hit his head on the horn of the stirring wheel. He clears his throat and regained his composure.

"Well then, if not late yet, you can delete him out of your contact, and be more aware to trending topics."

Ai turns her head to Ichigou and nods slightly.

AI'S APARTMENT.

Ai opens the door, as she entered the room, she saw Miyako rocking both Aqua and Ruby.

Miyako smiles and drops the babies off the ground.

"Oh, you're back."

Aqua and Ruby crawls to their mother and wanted to be carried.

Ai takes them and then turns her head to Miyako, smiling.

"Yeah, Thank you for taking care of my children.

Miyako joyfully smiles and walks close to Ichigou who's just right at the door.

"Well, yeah, right. Let's leave now, Ichigou-san hmh~" (This timeline is actually just the time Ruby and Aqua pretended to be divine messengers, XD)

Miyako points his fingers to Ichigou's chest. Ichigou blushes and looks away, covering his mouth with his arm.

"Well... Yeah, okay"

He then turns to Ai.

"We'll be taking our leave, Ai."

Ai waves at them, smiling.

As both Miyako and Ichigou left, Ai then turns her head to Aqua and Ruby

"Are you hungry, you two?"

Ruby turns her h ad to Aqua and smirks and started crying.

"Oh, hush now Ruby, what could it be that you want?"

Ruby hugs her mother's chest, Ai was shocked but realizes.

"Oh, you want milk?

Aqua was in shock of Ruby's sudden action. Ai turns her head to Aqua smiling and asked him.

"You too Aqua?"

Aqua looks at her slowly in terror.

5 MINUTES LATER

Aqua continues to drink in his bottle, looking away from Ruby and Ai who's just beside him, Ruby kept glancing on Aqua. Teasing him, Aqua starts to get irritated.

"You sure do like bottles Aqua?" Ai said, smiling and brushing her hands on Aqua's hair.

Ruby closes her mother's chest and then crawls towards Aqua.

Ai was glad and smiles at them. She then stood up to cook dinner.

After Ai left, Ruby turns her head to Aqua and said.

"How about that? Mr. Otaku?

Aqua looks at Ruby, irritated.

"You monster."

AFTER THE DINNER

Ai took her children to the bath. While Ai was washing Aqua's hair. Ruby was blushing hard, trying to stop a laughter on Aqua's 'Don't look behind' face.

19:30 P.M (Ai and her children just finished bathing.)

Ai then took her children to their cribs.

After securing they're asleep, she then went into the balcony, looking at her phone (Contacts: 090-xxxx-xxxx)

seconds has passed and he hadn't answered the call yet.

Just as when she was about to drop the call, a voice in the other line appeared.

"Why did you call?"

Ai smiles and the puts the phone in her ear back.

"Hello there , Akira-San... Did you... Reveal my location to the public lately...?"

Akira was silent for a moment and asked in confusion.

"No, Why?"

Ai sighs in relief and smiles.

"Well, Ichigou-san thought you were a hacker or something. I'm glad you weren't though."

Akira was silent for a moment

"And oh,can I confirm who you really are?"

Ai asked.

Akira simply replied.

"Sorry, even I couldn't remember when and how did we meet before... Or even if we had..."

Ai's eyes widened.

"Ohh, is that so..? Well, it sure is strange that we couldn't remember each other."

Silence

"Well then, talk to you tomorrow. Goodnight Akira-San."

" 'night."

Ai closes her phone and then went to her room.

Unknown to Ai, Aqua and Ruby were still awake at that time and saw her call Akira.

Ruby wondered.

"I wonder who mama was talking to."

Aqua sighed.

"It was probably Mr. Ichigou or Miyako."

Ruby looks at the ceiling and starts yapping louder.

"But, what if it's someone? Our father? Our-"

She turns her head to Aqua, already asleep just by a little yap.

AI'S BEDROOM

Ai's thoughts keep drifting towards Akira.

Thinking about when and where did she and Akira met before, trying harder this time.

She lays down on her bed, repeating the phrase, trying to remember him.

"Akira? Kiyoshi Akira....?"
