Chapter 15
~Maria's POV~
Today is the after party.
Today, Onee-sama and I will be seeing Tsuruga-san again.
I waited for Onee-sama to come down.
When she arrived, I immediately went to where she is.
"Onee-sama, can we talk for a while?" I asked hesitantly
"Hmm?" she replied as she led to me to the couch.
I breathed in and resolved myself.
"I decided that I won't run away anymore." I stated
I saw her eyes widened.
"Why?" she asked me?
"I had a dream, a dream of my mother. It was the very first time, I had dream of her since her death.
She told me to stop running away, I was sceptical at first but, I knew that she was right. I don't know if I had really dreamed of her, or it was my subconscious thinking that told me, but she was right.
My running away led me to also steal your chance away.
Now, I know that you love Tsuruga-san, and I had enough.
It is time for me to face my past head on."
"Maria, honey, if this is what you want I will honour it. But I don't want you to force yourself." She told me gently.
"I'm not, this is what I want. I have been thinking this over for a while now. I have made up my mind."
She nodded and hugged me.
"When?"
"Tonight, if they are there. Kyoko-oneesama, I want you to talk with Tsuruga-san while I talk to my grandfather. Promise me. You had already proven yourself towards Fuwa Sho that you are no longer a push over. That you can stand on your own. I want to be like that."
"I promise, Maria."
I smiled and decided that we should leave for the after party….

~Normal POV~
When the Flower sisters arrive, they were immediately greeted by the staff and the other actors.
When Kyoko saw that Tsuruga was with two beautiful couple that looks like Kuu Hizuri and his wife Julie, and Lory.
When they saw that we had arrived.
Kuu and Julie had dragged Ren towards were Kyoko was.
"Umm, Akai-san can we talk, in private." Asked Tsuruga-san.
Kyoko had hesitated because she didn't want to leave Maria alone.
"I'm alright Onee-sama, I'm going to talk with Takarada-san." Maria stated and waved Kyoko and Ren.

With Takarada and Maria:
Maria had led Lory to a more secure area that nobody can eavesdrop on their conversation.
Julie and Kuu had left to give them privacy.
"What do you need, Shiroi-san?" asked Lory
"I had decided that I should stop running away. It has been long enough already." She stated and Lory was confused on what she meant.
"What do you mean?" he asked
"I know that you already suspected who I really am…grandpa…" stated Maria with a sad smile.
Lory's eyes widened. He had thought that Shiroi Lily was Maria. But he didn't have enough proof.
"Maria?" he whispered.
Maria stood up and sat were Lory was sitting and hugged him.
"I'm back…grandfather…I won't leave anymore…I was hurt, but I have been away for too long now. It was childish of me…I'm sorry…" cried Maria
"No…no…you have nothing to apologize for…we were at fault…so please stop crying…" soothed Lory, he had wiped his granddaughter's tears away.
Maria smiled a teary smile and asked
"Is he here?" she asked hesitantly
"Are you sure?" Lory asked her.
She nodded and he called his son to come where they were. When Kouki had arrived and saw that Maria was their sitting with Lory, Kouki had a hopeful look.
Maria sighed and stood up.
She went were Kouki was standing and slapped him hard, and yelled everything she had bottled up.
Kouki didn't get angry; he knows he deserves everything his daughter gives him.
What he didn't expect was a hug from her and her forgiveness.
He comforted her along with Lory. Finally, they are complete…

With Kyoko and Ren:
They arrived into a secluded room.
"Why have you brought me here, Tsuruga-san?" asked Rosa
Ren resolved himself.
"I love you, Akai Rosa, no Kyoko. I have been in love with you ever since we first met. I want to spend my life with you. I am Corn, your childhood friend that you thought that was a fairy prince, I was jealous on how you always talk about your Sho-chan. I was surprised that you had left him and pursues another identity like me." He confessed
Kyoko couldn't say anything due to shock.
She cried and it had alarmed Ren, he was about to apologize but Kyoko cut him off by kissing him.
Ren immediately responded back.
"I love you too, Ren. You are my prince. I was blind not to notice it." She confessed
Unknown towards the new couple, they were being eavesdropped by Ren's parents.
When they heard the good news they opened the door and congratulated their son and welcome Kyoko to their family….

All is right for the Flower sisters now.
They may have bloomed into beautiful ones, but they were lonely.
They had finally found where they belong.
For Kyoko, she had found her other half and a family that will not abandon her.
For Maria, she had reconciled with her family and made peace with her father.
