Yuki and Trisha made their way to the bathroom. After getting the water to a perfect temperature and then filling the tub, the two girls got in. This time Trisha got in first and made Yuki sit in her lap. Yuki was basically under a spell as Trisha washed her head to toe. Not missing a single part of her body. Even lingering around certain areas a little too long. Yuki, of course, got her revenge when it was Trisha's turn. Although the two were getting turned on, they did not go too far because they knew Tina would be over soon. But just fooling around and being together like this in a calm and relaxing environment felt so right for the two of them. The shyness they had before was all but gone after so many hours of sex in game.

After a hot bath and getting dressed, the two sat in the living room. Yuki was currently blow drying Trisha's hair when Tina came in. She found Trisha leaning against Yuki as Yuki ran her hands through Trisha's hair while blowing drying it. Seeing this caused Tina to smile. Both girls had hard lives. Yuki's life was not as bad now, but before, it was not a life many could survive in. And Trisha was locked down by the royal family. She had no idea how the royal family would treat their relationship, but for now… She would watch over them and hope things turned out okay.

"Have you girls eaten?" Tina asked.

Yuki looked over at Tina and smiled, and shook her head. "No, we just got up. Why don't we go out for breakfast together? I will pay."

"You!? You will pay!?" Tina asked in a teasing voice.

Yuki stuck her tongue out at Tina and nodded: "Mmm... I have made quite a bit. I have full control of the market in game on my items. So until I get some competitors, there is no one who can stop me from making tons of money."

"Then I will need you to take care of me in my old age." Tina said jokingly.

"Mmm… You can count on me…. Mom..." Yuki blushed as she said this. She wanted to try saying it once since she had never had a chance to before.

Tina, who was in the middle of cleaning the kitchen, froze when she heard those words. Her eyes even began to well up with tears. She did not turn around, only nodding her head as she said: "I expect you to keep your promise."

Yuki had decided with how much Tina was doing for her that she did not need to fear abandonment. Even if she was abandoned later on, it would be fine. Right now, she wanted to indulge in the feeling of having a family. She wanted to take another step forward in her life. Trisha, who was listening to all of this, was happy for Yuki but also a bit jealous. Right now, her only family would be Yuki.

Yuki sensed Trisha's mood and hugged her from behind. She softly whispered in Trisha's ear: "I'm with you."

"Mmm..." Trisha nodded and nuzzled her nose into Yuki's arms.

Tina looked at the two girls and smiled. She couldn't even remember the last time she fell in love like that. "You girls hurry up. I am almost finished here."

"Yes!" Yuki and Trisha both called out at the same time. After she finished drying Trisha's hair, Yuki ran back into the bedroom to strip the sheets off it and stuff them into the hamper. Tina took this time to pull Trisha aside.

"Trisha, No matter what happens in the future, as long as you love Yuki, I will stand on your girl's side. This means we are family from now on." Tina wanted Trisha to know that she should not feel left and that she now had a family. She knew about Trisha's circumstances and in truth, she hated the idea of a family ousting one of their own flesh and blood just because of her birth. She did not find it fair to the child who had no control of such things.

"Thank you..." Trisha began to tear up. Tina's motherly warmth was addicting. Tina smiled and hugged the poor girl.

"Ahem…Mom, are you hitting on my girlfriend?" Yuki asked teasingly.

"I'm sorry Yuki, but as you can see..." Tina gave a cheeky smile before laughing. "Are you ready?"

"Yep! Trisha, are you all set? Do you need to do makeup or anything?" Yuki knew Trisha used a bit of makeup but she had not put any on this morning.

"No. I will only use it at school. The air is cold so with a face mask and a hoodie I can keep people from recognizing me." Trisha explained. She did not want to waste more time putting on makeup which was only used to keep up her image for the Evergreen Family.

"Then let's go, the truck is parked right at the door. " Tina said, grabbing her purse. Yuki checked to make sure she had everything once more before grabbing Trisha's hand and following behind Tina.

Their plans for the day was to go to breakfast then go to Ikeeya to get some things. Yuki planned to make the spare bedroom into a personal space for Trisha. They may be a couple and living together but they would both need their own personal space every now and then.

But who would have thought this special outing would turn into something else as soon as they exited the truck to go into the restaurant. The sound of gunfire could be heard four times as soon as Trisha got out of the truck. A blue flicker of light could be seen appearing on Trisha's body as she was flung backward. "Trisha!"

Yuki's mind blanked out as she saw Trisha falling to the ground. The images of Mary dying in a pool of blood flashed in her mind as she tried to rush over to Trisha without any concern for her own well being. "Shit! Yuki stop!"

*Bang!*
