Chapter 1111 Tokyo Illusion Part 49

KOU

"But, Yuhi-san needs to learn to live without me by his side. It's cruel saying this, but since I came to Tokyo. He has always been with me. Yuhi-san managed before without me but just a few months lead to this situation. It's okay to be in love, but destroying your entire life just because the other person isn't there? It's not healthy for him."

Kou exhales deeply. "I wanted to say something about this too. But Yuhi already looked like he would shatter."

"It's okay, I'm not saying Yuhi isn't allowed to be weak because he is. I just want him to regain his confidence. No matter how far apart we are from one another, I will always love him."

'But, will Yu-Yu understand that? He was so insecure.'

"I will talk about it with him properly, that's why Kou. Please look after him again for me."

"Of course I will."

Teras.h.i.+ma Yuhi has also become one of his precious friends.

Kou spotted Yuhi before she did and found himself slowly backing away; and watched as Sumire was hugged from behind.

"Yuhi are you sure you should be up and about? You're still not feeling well." Sumire asked.

That explains why he went upstairs, after speaking with Ran, he must have fallen asleep.

"It's fine. I'm only at peace when you're beside me."

"I see, then I'm happy."

Even though she was smiling just now with him, Kou could tell the difference. When she's with Yuhi she is a completely different person.

It truly does look like his defeat huh? He supposed he expected this the minute she headed to Tokyo without telling anyone.

She went to Tokyo, because staying in Star town was too painful after Mamoru's accident, it made sense. Kou understood the main reason why she chose Tokyo.

He accidentally found out but when he did she didn't hesitate to tell him. About Teras.h.i.+ma Yuhi and everything that pa.s.sed between them. To everyone else he was just a mysterious guy that showed up once every few fights. But to Sumire he has always been someone irreplaceable.

'I hope you can keep this secret for me.' Since she said it with those eyes how on earth was he supposed to refuse.

'I knew from the start that it was hopeless.' Unlike Jun who guessed through observations. Kou had an actual reason to believe that they would end up together and that's why, he drew away quickly and flirted around.

None of the other female stars however compared to Mimi. He couldn't?use any to fill the void he felt.

However, even that had to come to a halt eventually. He cannot deny what his heart truly desires.

"You two, quit flirting and help me out already. You'll make me jealous." He said with a fake pout.

Sumire laughs softly. "Um Yuhi-san, you can stop flirting with me."

Yuhi grunted. "I wouldn't call this flirting."

Sumire shakes her head and returns to helping him finish making the food.

That's right, he can't deny it.

But he knows better than to interfere now. Not when they're so happy with each other. His thoughts break off when he catches a glimpse of Kusabe Renna who just entered. Since this is the shared living s.p.a.ce for star entertainment artists. Kusabe Renna was also living here.

Kou gave her his usual friendly smile, but the girl responded with a cold gaze. Kou chuckles quietly to himself, she really is an interesting person.

….

A few months ago

Kusabe Renna cornered him out in the hallway before he went to work.

"You know I'm not really fond of being used as a cover up for your feelings. If you still like her, it's alright to admit it you know?" Renna said.

As direct as always. Or rather he was surprised that she allowed him to carry on this game for so long, "Hmm? What are you talking about?"

Even if she knows the truth, he isn't going to admit it Kou wasn't going to admit it easily.

"You know wha---"

Kou cuts her of as he pinned her towards the wall.

"Of course that's not the case now. I only love you now Renna-chan."

"Tsk, you are too persistence.'

....

He isn't sorry that he used her.

He didn't even feel bad, even after she confronted him about it. After all, he knows who Kusabe Renna actually likes. Falling for Ran-chan is fine, but Ran dislikes Renna-chan with a burning pa.s.sion. 'I have tried prying the story from both of them, but neither of them have budged.'

Even if Renna-chan likes Ran, considering how Ran treats her, there is no chance of them getting together. Because of this reason, Kou doesn't mind using Kusabe Renna.

The truth is he isn't as good of a person people make him out to be. But even with that knowledge Mimi still continued to approach him and that's why, even now when he shuts his eyes, all he can see is her.

'I have held my emotions back, suppressed them so I could support Yu-Yu. But, it hurts sometimes.'

Kou shakes his head and helps Mimi bring the food to the living room.

Getting involved in the composition process. It was the first time the two requested something like that. After all, they became a group of five. He and the other three decided it would be better to just leave it up to those two.

Indeed even though they requested help; the two seemed to be completely submerged in their conversation.

Jun and Tetsuo who just returned slides up a copy of the lyrics in front of him. His thoughts automatically broke upon seeing the bright glow. Ah, she's really serious about this huh? Even though the six of them haven't been together much this year, she's still able to write something like this for them.

When the demo of the tune is played, Kou is filled with a mixture of emotions. Yet when the others are huddled up in a center and Yuhi is in the corner by the window.

Kou casually s.h.i.+fts over and he finds himself asking directly,?"How did you come up with such a song?"

"Simple. I imagined the woman I love is feeling sad. How should I hug her to drive her pain away? Should I use all my strength to hug her? How long should I take to drive her pain away. As long as both parties understand each other things will work out eventually."

It's then that Kou sees it. Although it isn't the first time, this is the first he's seen up close. Teras.h.i.+ma Yuhi with a tender and warm hearted expression directed only at Mimi.

She clearly noticed since a soft chuckle escaped her lips. Ah, really what kind of person would he be to destroy something like this? It's too beautiful. No matter how cruel he is, 'I can't break something like this.'

He's lost completely. It may hurt now, but eventually the pain will go away.

"Let's make this a good song." Kou said.

"Yeah. I'll be counting on your support too."

'Mimi, you really have chosen an amazing person.'
