Eternal Melody
258 Everything happens for a reason Part 2
Ha, she went ahead and said it. Actually, he thought the same when Nagawa said those words about her dying. In the event that something bad happens, he tries to imagine Sumires response. He turned to the girl in his arms. Despite her pale face, she said those words with such confidence.
"You went through a lot, do you want to sleep?"
"Mmm. I think they still have to run some tests though, but afterward we can cuddle."
She already planned ahead too. No doubt that she asked for permission already. Yuhi gently combed her hair with his hands and patted her back.
He was showering her with so much affection that nobody wanted to disturb.
But one of the nurses stepped forward. "Excuse me but we have to bring her to her room."
...l
Yuhi checked on the child when Sumire fell asleep. It seemed the doctors were having a hard time because some of the tests seemed strange. So he called Atsuro over to have a look. A hospital like this does not specialize in individuals with evolved genetics, so it is normal. Yuhi figured there would be something wrong with the child but he did not think they would find out right away.
His gaze fell on the girl fast asleep on the bed. He extended his hand out and interlocked a strand of her hair with one of his fingers before he brought it to his lips. This girl scared him so much today. He rushed back so quickly too without finishing everything.
Hino came along like a fool too. That guy should have stayed behind. Since earlier he switched his phone off and did not switch it on even once. He does not want anybody to disturb them.
It is a good thing he made it, even though he could not come inside with her. Yuhi knew it was enough for her that he came. He lets go of the strand of hair and stood up. He picked up a guitar case from the side and took out his guitar. He was in the middle of promotion so he had this with him when he received word.
Yuhi played a few notes and for the next few minutes, there was no other sound. This recent song was just like the others, a powerful and explosive start before it turned quiet. The feelings he has for Sumire are like a raging storm.
"Yuhi-san are you writing a song for me?" He heard a faint voice and looked over. Sumire was peering over at him from her blanket.
The moment he thinks she looks adorable is when he loses. Yuhi tried to avoid eye contact but it did him no good.
"Silly girl, all my songs are for you."
"They are?"
'At least since we met back then.'
Sumire must have figured this out since she suddenly sat up. She wrapped her arms around his neck and sat on his lap causing him to let go of the guitar. Geez, even when he was refraining.
"Say Yuhi-san?"
"Yeah?"
"You smell good today."
Yuhi paused but gently caressed her hair. "Hey, do you want to go on a trip with me?"
"A trip?" Sumire questioned. Before he could say anything else there was a knock on the door.
Yuhi told the person to come in and Atsuro waltz in with the child in his arms. "Hey Yuhi, did you tell Sumire…"
____
Why is he here? What is he doing with her child too? Sumire stared at him suspiciously.
Atsuro walked over to her and placed the child in her arms. "Spend some time with him before you go."
He did not say anymore and exited the room. Sumire was very puzzled but she did not get a chance to say anything since she felt a small pair of hands on her own. "..Ma..M.."
Eh?
Yuhi laughed and sat down on the bed too. "Already trying to speak? This one is fast."
"What did Atsuro mean just now?"
"Mm, like I said let's go on a trip for a while. I mean we should go." Yuhi pointed to the child in her arms. Sumire felt pain in her arms and realized why. Could it be because she touched-- Yuhi took the child from her.
"We still don't understand what's wrong. But it won't be long, so let's go for a bit yeah?"
She knew Yuhi was trying to be as nice as possible about it but Sumire felt uneasy. Will she be unable to hold that child again?
Her thoughts broke off when Yuhi grabbed the child's hand and let go before grabbing her hands. "It's okay, this child will recognize you no matter what happens. You also won't forget this warmth."
...
A few hours later on a remote island.
Sumire woke up to an unfamiliar room, and yet familiar warmth. Yuhi lay on top of her naked with the covers barely covering them. She still had her clothes on and yet she wore a very thin-looking nightgown.
'Did--did he change her into this?' Her thoughts broke off when Yuhi stirred awake.
Yuhi looked at her half-dazed before nibbling on her lips. "Morning love, why do you love so mad?"
She points to her clothes.
"Well you got drenched in the rain, I had to do something.." Yuhi trailed off. "Sorry, you must be upset.."
"..."
Now she is even more irritated. Why is he such a gentleman? This is cheating.
"I'm not upset." She kissed him back. "How long are we staying here?"
"Mm, I was thinking a week? We have to go back next week to do the term evaluation but we can prepare for that here."
A week with Yuhi in this place. Actually, since she woke up she immediately noticed the fresh air and a different atmosphere. From the window, she spotted palm trees and bright blue skies. Sumire looked at Yuhi puzzled, Yuhi who noticed her gaze chuckled.
"Private island."
A knowing ah escaped her lips. Right, Yuhi-san has something like this. She almost forgets that he is a famous superstar. Whenever they are together he feels like a normal person. She snuggled into his arms and Yuhi gently caressed her hair.
Yuhi mumbled her name affectionately against her hair. "You want to relax for a bit more?"
"I do."
"What about food?"
"Later." For some reason, she just wants to stay with him like this.
Now that she thought about it, the two of them have come a long way. In the past, she would not have imagined that they would end up this way. That time she turned him down she only did so because she was unsure. She was unsure of herself, not his feelings. His feelings were quite transparent to her. Despite how she was back then she could tell he was sincere. But it was because she saw his sincerity that she understood. With the way she is, she will only bring him unhappiness and more pain.
But from the very start, Yuhi never saw her as a ticking time bomb waiting to explode. She was so cold to him and other people and yet he still said such words to her. He still confessed to her. It made no sense to her at all. Even though this person can see all her flaws, he still accepted her.
"What about that song you were writing for me?"
"Mm? You want to hear it?"
"No, I don't."
Yuhi laughed and stood up. "Alright. I will make your food after all. Try to sleep more if you can." Before she could say anything he was already exiting the room.
The moment he left she buried her face in the pillows and deeply sighed. So much has happened and yet she recalled the warmth of the child she briefly held in her arms. So small, those hands that had clung to her were so very small, and yet it was familiar. It was the same as his hand.
