"Do you remember how you decided to be mommy to them?" Akio asked while pointing at one of the picture.

Len looks like she don't know what to do and Akio took a photo to make fun of her because she always took photos of Akio to make fun of him.

"Of course, you laugh too much that day." Len pout but Akio just kiss her pouting lips.

"You look so cute that time." Akio said and Len just sigh

**

Len as usual visiting the twin who is already two years old. It become her routine.

"Hi babies." Len said greeted them even they are sleeping.

She just came back from praying because today is the day of her little angel's death.

"Oh, you are early today." Akio said when he saw Len, she just nod at him.

Akio notice that something is wrong, he look at the calendar and he remembers what is today's event for Len.

"Do you want to eat anything?" Akio asked and Len shake her head.

"I'm cooking, you will have lunch here, right?" Akio asked and Len shake her head again

"You have no choice." Akio said before going back to the kitchen, the nannies are just watching them.

"Ms. Len, do you want to hold him?" One of them asked while carrying Azim

Len look at her before she nods and held the baby who woke up from sudden movement.

"Ma-ma." Len immediately look at Azim when she heard what she said.

"Oh my." One of the nannies react

"He called you mama." the other one said smiling

"Hi baby, I'm auntie not mama." Len said smiling to Azim

Len felt something tugging on her heart when she heard what Azim called her but she also know that she's not the mother of the children.

"Ma-ma." Azim said again smiling to Len

"Say auntie, Aun-ty." Len said but Azim looks like he will cry now.

"Mama." Azim said

"I think Ms. Len, it's okay to let him call you that." One of the nannies said

"No, even if it's okay for me, what about their family." Len said

"Ma-Ma!!" Azim now shouting and crying that made Bella woke up and started to cry too because she got disturb

"What's wrong?" Akio came back from the kitchen. He heard the twins crying and he look confused because Len looks like she doesn't want to move.

"What are you doing?" Akio asked frowning to Len, he went to pick Azim who is crying in Len's arms.

Akio look at Len who is also looking at him, she look lost and don't know what to do.

"What happened?" Akio asked

"He called me mama." Len said and Akio raise an eyebrow

"What's wrong with that?" Akio asked

"Don't you feel uncomfortable?" Len asked and Akio tilt his head

"No, why? Do you feel uncomfortable?" Akio asked back

"No, but I'm not their mother." Len said

Akio signal the nannies to pick the children and go to room. The nannies immediately went away with the crying babies on their hands.

"Let's see, what's wrong Len?" Akio asked sitting down in front of Len.

"I don't think I deserve to be called mama, I can't even protect my own child, how come I'm going to be mother? Plus they not related to me by blood." Len said and Akio sigh and held Len wrists and he notice that Len grimace.

Akio immediately put up the sleeves of Len and saw new cuts and scratches on it." Akio sigh again before he hug Len.

"Len, even you are not related by blood, Azim and Bella is your family, you don't need to think that they are not related to you by blood, you can be related by bond." Akio said while hugging Len.

"I can't replace Kana in their life, Akio." Len said and Akio tightened his hold.

"You are not replacing her, you are just loving her children like your own, both of you can be the twins mother, I'm sure Kana will be happy if you love her children like your own." Akio said and Len buries her head on Akio's neck.

"I'm so happy when Azim called me mama, but I also got scared that one day he will realized that I'm not his mother." Len said

Akio laugh at her, he is trying to lighten up the mood, when he laugh Len pouted and push him away.

"Why are you laughing?" Len asked angrily but Akio still think that she look cute.

"I'm laughing because of you, stop acting like a child." Akio said

Akio and Len look up when they heard crying, Akio notice that the room door opened.

"Sir, ma'am, Azim won't stop crying he keeps calling mama." One of the nannies said

Akio watch Len stood up and immediately went to the room. Akio just shake his head and went back to the kitchen to cook again.

When Akio done cooking he saw the two nannies cleaning the living room.

"Where are they?" Akio asked and they pointed at the room.

Akio went to the room and he stop at the door when he saw that Len is laying down on the middle of the bed, Bella and Azim are cuddling on her both side.

Akio immediately take the picture, before he chuckled, that made Len woke up and look at him.

Akio laugh now because Len looks like a child that just woke up, her face is swollen and she's pouting.

"They won't stop until I called myself mama, then they decided to cuddle with me." Len said to Akio who is laughing.

Akio went to sit on the bed, Len just looking at him.

"Because you are their mommy, you like it or not since the day you decided to check on them, they are your children too." Akio said and Len look at him.

Akio just sigh and brush Len's hair, Len immediately blushed, she's not used to this gestures from Akio.

"Akio." Len called and Akio just smiles.

"Len, you are part of the family now." Akio said softly and that made Len speechless especially when Akio decided to kiss her forehead.

"Lunch is ready, get up now." Akio said before leaving the room.

Len can't move because of that kiss, that's totally not what friends do.
