<div class="floatleft">(https://storage.googleapis.com/pod_public/750/147860.jpg)</div><strong>Name:</strong><em>Mai Ishikawa (Naomi's mother)</em><br/><strong>Date | Location:</strong><em>Sunny Afternoon | Japan, Ishihawa Estate, The Garden</em><br/><strong>Wearing | Carrying:</strong><em>Light Kimono predominantly red sakura with white background and matching obi</em><br/><strong>Tagging:</strong><em>Evie Connors</em><br/><strong>Warning:</strong><hr/><br/>Mai whimpered softly in Evie's ears as she was lifted effortlessly by her love. She continued to shudder as she was carried. Tears start to form in her eyes again as she held on to Evie. But this time they were tears of joy. She looked up at Evie as she removed her clothing.<strong> "I missed you so much, Evie. So much that it ached. I hope you understand, I had to leave you. They threatened to hurt you. I couldn't let them. Will you forgive me?"</strong>It was about this time that she noticed Evie's legs. It shocked her and her heart broke. Her love had gone through so much and she did not know. But she put it aside. Her love was back. They would make it work. They would have too.<br/><br/>Mai leaned against Evie, her back resting on Evie's breasts. She smiled as she could still feel the stiffened nipples. She rested her hands on Evie's thighs. She was not sure if her love could feel her touch on the cybernetic limbs. She wanted to show her love that she did not care and that her love was still beautiful and the one for her. She leaned back and kissed Evie hungrily.<strong> "And you stopped...stopped far earlier my love. I thought you could go longer..." </strong>she teased. She looked into Evie's eyes and continued as she thought back on the memory of doing simple activities like plaiding Evie's hair and doing her nails,<strong>"I can't plaid your hair anymore."</strong><br/><br/>Mai then listened to her love. She felt her heart break again as she held back her tears. Her love had sacrificed so much. But she did not feel sorry for her love. She was proud. Proud and full of gratitude for what Evie had done. She continued to listen quietly without interrupting other than caressing her love. She wanted to make sure that Evie knew her thoughts.<strong>"I love you, Evie, I still do. I think about you all the time. How can I say no? But you have to understand. I love Naomi too. I will not endanger her or leave her with that Monster."</strong>She closed her eyes as she thought about the consequences of what would happen if they were found out. How they would hide. They would be on the run for the rest of their lives. She knew that her husband will do everything it takes and his network was powerful and far-reaching.<br/><br/><strong>"I will agree if you promise me two things. One, we choose the path of the least risk. I understand that there will be risks involved. My husband is capable of anything and he is ruthless as he is far-reaching. We will be on the run forever. But we take every precaution. We need to be patient. And two, the most important condition, and I want your word of honor and on our love. If anything happens. Your first priority is Naomi. You save her. You take her from that Monster. If there is a threat to either me or Naomi, you save her all the time. No ifs no buts. Can you promise me this? If you cannot, I must say no"</strong>
