Eternal Melody Chapter 160 - Nothing Would Change

Chapter 160 - Nothing Would Change

s.h.i.+n could guess what she was thinking. But that was exactly why. "You have some time now right? Let's finish this elsewhere."

Sumire laughed. "Oh! Are you going g to teach me? You haven't had time recently."

"Only for a bit."

It did not take them long before they reached the physics prep room. The moment he arrived, he noticed that somebody switched his computer on.

It was a message from his sibling.

"Sheesh, if he wanted to make up he could have just called or apologised directly or something. The way they did this, I'm not sure if he wants to apologise directly or make me mad. But well since he took this time to do all this, it's only right for me to give a fitting reply."

"Then let me help." Sumire offered.

s.h.i.+n would have responded to that until he saw dark marks on the brunettes neck. "Sumire you that's ---"

She immediately placed her hand over it.

"Did that person. . hurt you again. . "

"N-no that's not it. I was with Yuhi earlier and he kinda. .. Um….I would rather not explain this. .. " Sumire said, her cheeks completely red.

He realises what she means right away and his cheeks turns a similar shade. "Oh--I see. Sorry." s.h.i.+n clumsily apologized.

"No it's fine. T--hank you for worrying about me. "

But Teras.h.i.+ma did that to her huh? The fact that she doesn't bother hiding it just goes to show how much she loves him.

"Sit down. You can't really walk around like that can you?"

"Yeah. . thanks. .." Sumire thanked him as she took a seat.

s.h.i.+n brought out the medical supplies. His gaze fell on the brunette. She really has changed a lot appearance wise in terms of when they first met. Although there was always a certain flair about her then; he honestly saw her as a kid despite only having a year age gap.

He saw drastic changes in her last year but nothing major. Back then he would never have imagined that she would grow up to be so beautiful.

'I never cared about peoples appearances and even when I fell for her back when she had average looks. However gradually I began to pay more attention to appearance, it's hard to do so when the girl he love has become so beautiful.'

The girl he is in love with is so very beautiful and yet she is very careless too.

s.h.i.+n made his way back to his chair and placed a bandage over the brunettes neck. As he takes out the antcipetic.

"You don't have to."

"Should you not be asking me, ' How did you know I was hurt?'" s.h.i.+n said, taking out some cotton buds.

"There's no need to ask that. You're a genius after all."

"Even geniuses make mistakes, were you not the one who told me those words?"

"The fact that you can remember that is amazing enough."

s.h.i.+n shuts his eyes, as he applied the antsceptic on her hand.

"That's what I would like to know. Why, why do your words pierce me so deeply? If I figured that out a long time ago, then maybe--" s.h.i.+n paused.

If, if he figured it out a long time ago. Perhaps he would have moved forward like the others. The later despite being slow was the first one who found his answer, confessed, got rejected and moved forward.

"Not only did you strongly reject me before I could say those words you also rejected my help completely. You, wouldn't let me get involved. The later I know wasn't out of spite, your words are confusing but your actions have always made sense."

"My actions huh? Then, when I did that stuff afterwards. Did you understand what I was doing?"

s.h.i.+n pauses to catch a glimpse of her expression. "I understood. It was frustrating and annoying. Even though we were close enough then for me to be one of your partners, our actual relations.h.i.+p didn't change. You tried to give me a chance, I failed. That's it. "

"You don't think of me as a fickle woman?"

"Who said that to you?"

Sumire shook her head. "No she hasn't actually. You would think she would have noticed it by now. But just recently whenever I'm alone I end up thinking about a lot of stuff. Towards senpai I wasn't fair at all. Although he also contributed to a lot of the mistakes in the past, I can't say I didn't do anything wrong either. I spoke about a lot of things with Atus.h.i.+.

Atus.h.i.+ that the two of us were practically already going out already…After he said that I rea.n.a.lyzed our actions in middle school and indeed thought so too. That's why I thought it was fine if we carried on the way we were. But that only caused us more pain. When he got hurt and and ended up in hospital, and when he said he would go to L.A I broke down.

It's a blur to me but I can remember the expression he made then. The two of us were being selfish, ' if we continue like this, nothing will change.' That's why we made such a foolish promise on the rooftop of the school on his last day. That promise was only for show, it was never intended to be real."

That promise huh? Atsuro told him to still watch over her for awhile longer since she only just recovered; so he saw and heard everything with his own eyes.

Ichinose Aras.h.i.+ huh? That man will play a important role in this. But for now, it's Atsuro who will be Yuhi's main issue.

"Why are you mentioning this now?"

"I wanted to get this talk out of the way before Atsuro returns." She sighed deeply. "I feel like he will be unreasonable the moment he arrives."

s.h.i.+n frowned at those words. "Do you want me to..."

Sumire shook her head. "It's fine, I mean I have to speak to him eventually."

When he saw the brunette slump her head on the table; s.h.i.+n looked up from the work he was doing. "What's the matter Sumire? Are you alright?"

"No it's nothing."

She says it's nothing and yet she makes that sort of face. What a strange girl; even now the things she does is still a mystery to him. Still, it genuinely seems like she is worried about something.

"If the thing with Atsuro bothers you, why don't you discuss it with Yuhi? Unfortunately, I can't help you with his matters."
