Eternal Melody

Chapter 721: We are truly fated

Humans cannot survive without anybody by their side, even those people who wish to be alone and behave coldly. They still need warmth and daily interactions with people; otherwise, they would go insane. It's not surprising that Sumire broke down after a week.    

She may have lasted longer in the past. But ever since she arrived in Tokyo, he has made sure that she experiences nothing but warmth and happiness being surrounded by people. 

"So, Ru he, stayed by my side every night. At first, he simply stayed and kept guard by the door. Then I persuaded him to at least sit on the couch. Eventually, he couldn't ignore my violent attacks at night and slept by my side. Oh, but nothing happened. He didn't even want to hold my hand at first."

"You don't have to worry. I know Mamoru isn't the type of person who would take advantage of you."

Because Tsueno Mamoru is that type of person, he felt reassured and left for Tokyo. Even if Sumire fell for Mamoru, he would never force her to do anything without her consent.

"At first, he didn't say much, but he realized how bad my mental state was. So he made conversation. He talked to me about when we first met in the facility and how he gathered every story about me, you, and the other guys in M5. He put all the pieces together and told me everything. I was very weak when I first came back, and I spent the next few months recovering. So at first, I forgot about those stories." Sumire paused. "But one by one, watching the guys perform, it slowly came back to me."

"Then do you remember everything?"

"After I hear your performance tonight, I may. Do you not get it, Yuhi? I fell in love with you even without my memories. That means we are truly fated to be together, my dear." Sumire said with the brightest smile on her face.

"Sumire I-"

She leaned forward and lightly kissed him. "I truly am blessed to be with you. That's why I want you to feel the same and start planning for our future together."

"I want to have more children. Can we start there?" Yuhi clasped his hand on top of hers.

"Um," Sumire laughed with flushed cheeks. "This, I mean the method is-"

"We can't? I thought that is what you wanted."

"I-I do want."

Yuhi's lips curved to a smile, and he whispered in her ear. "Then, tonight?"

"Mm, ah, stop getting close." Sumire moved away, and he laughed.

Even though she confessed her love to him moments ago, look at her now. Before he could say anymore, he spotted somebody running up to them. It was Hino, he looked exhausted, but the smell of blood was on his clothes.

'Did Hino take care of them?' It's not like he is incapable, but Hino hates violence, doesn't he? That part of him actually resembles Sumire a lot.

Sumire walked over to him and wiped the blood from his cheek and clothing. "You did something silly, manager."

"I don't want to hear it from you."

"So, are they alive?" Sumire asked.

"I don't kill people. But they were a pain; one of them spat blood on my face." Hino sighed.

"That's just rude. Hmm, but I suppose no more people are left on the hit list."

Hino reached over and flicked Sumire's forehead. "I told you already to keep that under control."

"Ouch, you say that. But they were after me; it makes sense for me to take care of them."

Yuhi looked at the two of them with a troubled expression. This is strange. Did they always interact like this? Why does something seem different?    

"Anyway, it's not the most comfortable place. But get some sleep in my car, and then I will drive you to the festival."

"Eh? You could have booked a hotel room instead."

"We can't risk the media finding you. Sleep in the car." Hino instructed.

Sumire briefly glanced at him expecting him to follow.

"Go ahead. I will be there in a second." Yuhi said kindly, and Sumire reluctantly left.

Hino's car was within sight, and he spotted a member of Hyou4 there too. It wasn't just any member but the third in command, Sora, somebody who Sumire got along with well. She ought to be fine. Hino already took care of the remaining assailants. 

His thoughts break off, feeling a familiar pair of lips on his cheek. Yuhi blinked, startled, but Sumire was already rushing off. That girl keeps doing stuff that makes him speechless.

"Wipe that stupid grin off your face before your live. You have an image to maintain." Hino said.

Yuhi slumped to the ground. "I can't help it. Sumire is very cute. She was already cute before. But recently, she is getting cuter."

"Isn't that because you're making her smile more? She is also in a less stressful environment now."

"That's true."

"Get a grip, your going to be her husband soon. You need to do your duty well."

Despite how casually Hino said those words, Yuhi sensed the pain behind his words. It isn't easy for Hino to say those words.

"So, I'm sure you know already. But Lucifer is here."

"Yeah."

"I think he will definitely try to make contact with Sumire. No matter what happens, Yuhi, do not leave her side even for a single moment." Hino warned. "We cannot let them meet no matter what happens. I don't know why, but I get that something bad will happen if they ever see each face to face."

Hino wasn't explaining anything, and he was deliberately leaving out details. But he already understood. 

"I know."

The reason Lucifer is so interested in Sumire is most-likely because even amongst evolved humans, there is something unique about Sumire's abilities. But as for what that something is, nobody knows. The only one who would possibly have an idea is Mamoru. But ever since Sumire returned from the facility. Mamoru hasn't made contact once.

'A way to contact Mamoru, huh?' The only way Mamoru will show himself now is if Sumire is in danger. He hates to admit it, but not even he could track him down.

"Yuhi, I think you know this already. But no matter what happens, do not lose your temper."

"Huh?"

Hino sighed deeply. "You will see when we get there, but whatever you do. Control yourself."
