Im a bit confused though. Is Niki shocked that they might be siblings or because Hotaka is the boy that her father left her for?

In Ch5 Nikki says she lost a second father or actually someone who could have been a second father if you want to read it that way. She is pretty clear about the second father though. So 90% chance no blood relation and maybe not even one from marriage.

Ohhh I missed that "second" father part" So glad there's a good chance that there isn't a blood relation.

This is my theory.

Yoshi's father broke up with his wife and started to see a new women that had a little girl (Niki and He isn't her real father). Niki thinks that he was her father.

Yoshi's mother said to him that Yoshi had a heart disease, he went to see him and the medic said that Yoshi was gonna die and He donate his heart to Yoshi and the father died instead of him.

People only say that Niki murdered Yoshi's father trying to kill Yoshi but I think that it's not the truth. It's only a dream and represent that She hates who take her father away and that the little girl of dream in reality was stabbing the heart of Yoshi's father (Hint that Yoshi's heart is from his father).

It's only a representation of the feelings that Niki has and nothing more, she didn't stab to anyone in reality.

Actually, it is HOTAKA that said he had two fathers:

Gelatina said:

Nop, He said that He saw his father dies 2 times, in his real death and second with is mother and family insulting his father and changed Yoshi surname.

Like that, I lost the person who I could have called "Father" for a second time. Children who have not lost it even once would surely find it hard to understand ta sorrow like this. Although, if somewhere in this world there was someone who I could share this sorrow with, I would like to find that person.

Niki: I knew you from long ago. A club magazine... There are articles in there, right? I like reading those.
Hotaka: Haha [She really read them.]
Niki: In the beginning it was by chance. I was waiting for my friend in the corridor next to the manga club. I was bored so I opened a random page. At that time, I read, "I lost my father twice." The first one died from an illness. The second one... when he paid for the bad things he did during his life. In our family, the "Father" became a figure that, even if you yearned for him, you could only recall your memories of him. Even though I was a child, I could not cry when I thought about my father. There was no one who understood my feelings. That's what Hotaka wrote. ... I understand, I thought. Because I also lost my dad twice.
Hotaka: Huh...?
Niki: My Father firstly threw away my mother and I. He left us... When it was just me and him, he suddenly told me, "I'll definitely come back, we'll meet again. Daddy will always be watching Niki." After saying that, he suddenly disappeared. I who was left behind felt so sad. I missed him, I hated him. But somewhere in my heart I believed he'd return like he promised. And so I continued living, clinging on to just that. But many years passed ... and I learned he had actually died. My mother went to his funeral by herself, I... I don't believe it even now. That promise connot be fulfilled anymore."I can't see my father anymore, it must be a joke", I thought. I didn't want that. ... I found Hotaka. The person I needed to find. That's all there is to it.
