Kou didn't mean to run away.
He was going to cope with all the insults or intervene like he usually would. Yes, normally, he would not mind if they shifted their anger towards him. But when he recalled the sight of his kohais gradually getting better and better, it frustrated him. He is the only one not improving.
He suggested the idea for them to live together, just the four of them. Because he truly believes, that's what they need right now. Right now, they do not deserve to pair up with Terashima Yuhi, despite what it looks like in the eyes of their fans. Right now, Yu-Yu is the only one on the level that can be called a legend.
The other three felt so desperate to write eleven new songs and release an album like that because they also know it. The way they are now, it isn't enough; if they remain this way, the guys in Nanairo feather will catch up with them.
Kou saw it with his own eyes. The potential of the two duos and three solo projects brought about their talents and brought about newfound strengths that had yet to blossom. As the way they are now, they cannot help Mimi much or less match Yuyu.
His thoughts broke of spotting brunette-colored hair girl wearing an outfit that consisted of a light purple sleeveless dress with a semi-ruffled skirt and an image of cherry lips on the bottom left—dark purple pumps with a small chunk of gold on the heel. Gem shards are attached to the toe.
There was a table in front of her and several flowers as well as a pot. Oh, is she practicing her flower arrangement? He had heard from Ryou that there's an elite gathering that involved demonstrating the Princess skills. But he didn't think that he would find her earnestly practicing for it.
As they are now, they don't deserve to be called the number one idol group. The ones who should be on the top right now are, without a doubt, EMMA. The flaws they had as individuals have vanished entirely, and as a group, they have come together perfectly. Nananiro feather team spirit is far better than theirs.
"Mimi," Kou called out.
The brunette looked up, "Ah Kou! Practicing?" Kou nodded. "I see. I see that's good. You are working hard! Where are the others? Ah, perhaps you are racing and managed to get ahead of everyone?!! That's amazing since Jun-kun is fast."
Kou looked at her awkwardly, and the girl laughed. "Im joking. I already know since I just came from there."
"Right, you had a meeting." Kou almost forgot about that. "Sorry, I guess in the end you couldn't have it?"
"It's okay, and I sent Yuhi."
This girl is as carefree and mysterious as ever. "Am I disturbing you?"
"No, it's okay."
Kou is grateful that the girl did not engage him in conversation. He just wanted to think and be by himself. The second part he discarded when he saw her. It seems like he still has that bad habit from last year.
Ever since the day Tsueno Mamoru passed, Kou found himself more open about watching Sumire. Though it was something he had long been doing, up until now, he hid it quite well. That's right, and he has watched over her for so long, ever since that time they were kids. It does not seem like she remembers anything about it, though.
Their group that up until that time had been completely undefeatable had been ambushed - in their very own headquarters. There was a spy; someone let them in, and before they could even react. The lights went out, and he heard nothing but screams.
The clustering sounds of weapons and all sorts of voices, there were some familiar and some not. For those people's eyes who couldn't adjust to the dark, it was a complete wipeout. When the lights went back on, it was a complete mess. But for both sides. It seemed as though they were at an advantage. That was until they brought out the hostage.
Junie, Junie didn't deserve to suffer like that. Kira Junie was the person he saw that time.
The maroon-colored-haired boy regretted it then. He regretted having that fight with him and regretted ignoring those calls. When Kou saw him in such a condition, it was clear they tortured him. He must have tried to run away and called him for help.
Kou didn't know what happened. He charged in and lost complete control and...He doesn't recall it very well. But when he next woke up, Junie was crying in his arms about being okay, and a girl with dark brunette hair stood there with her gland figure. It was a sight that he would always remember.
After all, she gave him quite the punch and lecture. Kou laughed at the thought; even back then, Mimi was quite bold.
What was it she said then?
Sometimes it just takes patience for everything to happen. You won't get respect in just one day, you can't be in love with someone you just met, and you won't be able to forgive yourself in a second. You grow by making mistakes, getting hurt, and learning from your regrets.
It's your doing that makes you who you are. Don't assume; get your facts straight. That is what messes a lot of people up. There is always a reason for everything. As Shakespeare said, everything happens for a reason.
It is like we're all trying to fight for it, trying to get what we want, and it makes us forget the whole reason why we wanted it in the first place. Change for the better; don't change for someone else. Change for yourself. Don't be selfish. Don't limit yourself from doing things just because you don't think you can make it through. Remember — time isn't going to wait for you, so make the best of it.
Getting his facts right, huh? Meaning 'accepting just knowing wasn't enough. That's probably why his gaze lands on Sumire, reading a book now, the flower arrangement stuff inside her bag.
That's probably why their relationship ended. Even though he knew a lot about her, he knew everything there was to know about her. There were many things he just couldn't accept.
