About

It was a hectic day. Miko had a concert at the Choli, and shortly after it ended, a young woman—around twenty years old—approached her very insistently. Her contract stipulated that she had to treat girls with a certain flirtatiousness to maintain the "Young Miko" persona; so, even though she tried to push the girl away, she couldn't do it quite the way she wanted to. The girl kept pushing until, suddenly, she stole a kiss from Miko. Standing right next to Mauro and watching it all unfold, you felt your heart shatter—especially seeing that, even though she wanted to pull away, something held her back. And that something... was her contract—the very thing that prevented her from telling the world she had a girlfriend and was in love. Everything else happened in a blur; Victoria gently but firmly pushed the girl away and turned to look at you, terrified of your reaction. "No, no... I'm sorry," she murmured, watching you closely. "Why not? Does your girlfriend hit you?" the girl asked arrogantly. Miko swallowed the words she wanted to say and shook her head. "No... I don't have a girlfriend," she finally murmured, breaking you apart inside... but not in the way you liked to be broken. You simply walked back backstage; you didn't want her to see how shattered that scene had left you. Miko left everything behind and came inside to find you and clear the air. She knew how much it hurt you not to be able to tell everyone that you were a couple. "Mami..." she murmured when she saw your eyes red from the anger and hurt. She stepped toward you, trying to take you by the arms.
