Eternal Melody Chapter 1063 Tokyo Illusion Part 1

Chapter 1063 Tokyo Illusion Part 1

Originally they were as still as stagnant water, his time.

State of mind.

Feelings and emotions.

But now it's as though a dam has opened through them.

He wonders what it is. Is it that? When he wakes up, he immediately starts thinking of Sumire, and everything else dissolves as though it was never there to begin with.

------------

YUHI

A month later, October 14th - University Library, Tokyo

Reuniting with Sumire did wonders to his health. For one his sleeping schedule has finally reverted into a normal one. He didn't realize how much he had been relying on her until they were apart. It's not the first time he has experienced this too. It was the same when he moved to Tokyo and had to leave her behind in star town.

Yuhi sighed. "After staring so long, now you've decided to attack?"

Sumire nodded. "I'm hungry. I was thinking should I go to the cafeteria and eat, or should I eat this lavishly prepared meal in front of me?"

So much for her having reservations drinking, she doesn't hesitate now.

G.o.d, having her being this bold is driving him crazy. When he was abroad, he rethought their relations.h.i.+p and decided much to be more careful with her. It's not good to jump on her so much, no matter how much he enjoys feeling her warmth. He decided to be sensible and finally take Hino's advice. However, even though he is being very careful. Sumire isn't. He has lost count how many times she attacked him this past month.

It's certainly a change from how their relations.h.i.+p was before. But, Sumire is busier now. After her concert with Nase, her already exploding popularity, exploded even more. He wants to make sure she gets plenty of rest at night. However she insists on attacking him every night.

"Sumire."

"Hmm?"

"Your hand." Yuhi mumbled. "Behave."

Sumire pouted. "Why?"

"This is a library."

She looked even more confused. "My dear, did you learn manners when you were abroad? How could they corrupt you."

That's her idea of her corruption?

Yuhi brushed his lips against her ear. "I have no manners, and you know that. But, there is a reporter by the window."

Perhaps it was grand show with Nase or his return, but the reporters that had been leaving Sumire alone returned. Unlike before Sumire didn't mind being followed. In fact this silly girl has made a grand show being followed.

Sumire glanced over. "Ah."

The girl didn't move from his lap. "But you know, I'm sure they could write an interesting report seeing us like this. Especially since everyone is convinced I seduced you."

Yuhi sighed. "This damages my reputation, since I'm the one who did the seducing."

"Right, you casually asked me to live with you." Sumire trailed off. "When you did that, did you know we would get together?"

"I'd love to say yes. But, unfortunately back then I was only trying to make sure you were okay--" Yuhi paused seeing her hands unb.u.t.ton his bottom s.h.i.+rt. "Sumire, behave." He growled.

Sumire simply giggled as she continued. Geez, he really doesn't know what to think of her crazy behaviour. 'I understand that she missed me, at least I think I do.' When he asked for advice from the others who arrived a few days after him. They all said the same thing.

'She missed you, and regrets not doing what she wanted when she had you around.'

He gets it, he does. Because there were many things he didn't do with her before going abroad. Things he regretted. He did tell Sumire to be creative and think of the ways she wanted to be touched. But, considering her reaction at the time. Yuhi didn't think she would actually go through with it. Just as Sumire's hands made its way down his pants, they hear the conversation of two fellow students pa.s.sing by.

"Did you hear? Toh-senpai is back."

Seeing something s.h.i.+ft in Sumire's eyes. He pulled her off his lap. "Want to go?"

Sumire nodded.

....

There was a crowd and more people continued to gather. But, the moment they arrived. Mas.h.i.+ma immediately found Sumire through the crowd. He pushed past everyone and was soon standing directly before them. Mas.h.i.+ma's gaze flickered towards him for a moment and nodded before turning his attention to Sumire.

"Hi beautiful."

"H-h.e.l.lo."

Toh chuckled. "I have a few gifts for you, drop by my office later?"

Sumire nodded.

Toh briefly glanced over at him again and nodded before walking away.

The two only exchanged a few sentences, but it was enough

Seeing Sumire still staring at him, Yuhi hugged her from the back.

"My dear?"

"Let's skip cla.s.s?"

Sumire laughed and nodded. "Okay."

Yuhi could hear the rest of the crowd mumbling, whispering and pointing at Sumire with disgusted looks on their faces.

"Look at that, right in front of her boyfriend she is flirting with another guy."

"How does Yuhi-sama stand it?"

He frowned hearing their words.

"You know, if you're jealous you can just say so." Sumire spoke up, completely dismissing the words of their fellow students.

He has to admit he has been really impressed with this change. Not too long ago she still shuddered whenever someone looked at her with disgust. How did she become so strong? Since when? Why wasn't he there to see that change?

Yuhi cringed and Sumire continued. "I thought we discussed this Yuhi."

Indeed, they did. A few days after he came back. Sumire seemed really troubled that Mas.h.i.+ma asked Mamoru to pa.s.s on her phone, and how when she went to fetch her belongings. There was a note saying he was going abroad for a short trip.

"Sorry, it's just actually seeing it is hard." Yuhi mumbled.

"I understand. If you're this uncomfortable, I don't have to talk to him."

Yuhi shakes his head. "I wouldn't go that far."

"Okay." Sumire nodded. "So, if I go to his office like right now..would you mind?"

"Now?"

"I thought I'd get it out of the way, so we can spend time together. No?"

Yuhi shakes his head as he leaned forward and lightly kissed her lips. "Text me when you're done, I'll wait for you. Don't take too long since we have to go grocery shopping and then pick up the twins."

"Mm okay my dear!" Sumire blew some air kisses before leaving.

Yuhi exhales deeply as he watches her retreating figure. Maybe he is being too lenient. But, even if he wants to be selfish. He knows how hard it is for her right now. The discussion they had a few days after he returned flashed through his mind. It's hard to be selfish after recalling that face she made. It isn't easy for her, she feels trapped and suffocated already. He can't add to those issues.
