Eternal Melody Chapter 60 - Is This Okay?

K Bar - Tokyo -

Terashima Yuhi was not the easily jealous type, at least that was what he thought. But when he saw Sumire with Nakara, then Sumire with her ex. Yuhi realized how petty he was. The feelings of jealousy exist in him too. His gaz fell on the girl fast asleep in his arms. The mont they arrived at the bar, Sumire fell asleep.

It wasnt Friday, but he noticed she was sleepy and so he decided to co here instead. Yuhi examined her face for a few minutes and frowned. She looks exhausted. Sumire pretends that it does not bother her, but he saw the expression on her face when they had to et that guy again today.

'Should I stop bringing her with ?

But if I do that, she would be left here by herself.:

Yuhi carefully tucked a loose strand of hair away and noticed her stir. Soon she opened her eyes. Sumire looked at him half dazed and half wondering before she closed her eyes again.

He blinked and chuckled. "Hey wait a sec."

"Yuhi, I'm tired. I want to keep sleeping."

"What about food?"

Sumire shook her head. "Sleep."

She is so cute when she is sleepy. Yuhi watched as she closed her eyes again, it did not take long before she fell into a deep slumber. He did not bother going back to sleep and continued to watch her.

Sotis Yuhi wondered if this was okay. While spending each day with her like this is very nice. He knew that things could not remain this way forever. Sumire will eventually have to go back to the entertainnt industry.

Returning is good for her, but at the sa ti it is bad. She won't have ti for school, and her life won't be normal. Everybody will rember her as the girl whose boyfriend passed away due to an accident.

If she wants to get rid of that label, she will have to work even harder than before. Yuhi is afraid of what this would do to the girl. The world of music is not pure and could destroy a person completely. She is weaker than he thought she was.

She is strong, brave and courageous but also weak. That was fine, no human out there is perfect. But Terashima Sumire is in her most fragile state right now.

Mamoru, what was that guy thinking? He knew his illness would not get cured. So why on earth did he ask Sumire out? If he was only going to leave her behind, then he shouldn't have gotten closer to her.

Yuhi knew it was cruel of him to think this way, but he could not bear seeing Sumire in so much pain.

She really is far too foolish, her skin colour too. She's far too pale. Guess what happened between her and Iwa really had an effect on her health. She was already losing loads of blood to begin with and such a action didn't help her at all.

Yuhi shuts the door and made his way down the hallway, and down the steps. He spotted Jae on the counter.

"Ah King, welco. Is she sleeping ?".

Yuhi nods, " Yeah".

Atushi, who was washing up, called out from the kitchen area. "Both of you don't have any luck from the seems of it. Terashima you wanted to speak with Aki right?"

"Did that guy co here?"

"It seems like you just missed him."

Yuhi sighed as he took a seat on the stool. "Sumire was looking for him not too long ago. I figured she had so questions for him, that's why I thought to look too."

Jae blinked. "Well, he is obviously missing her on purpose. If he wants to appear before her, he could do so anyti he wants no?"

At that comnt Yuhi looked away annoyed. "That bothers ."

"The thing that bothers you now is the appearance of the ex right? I looked into him like you asked, but I couldn't find anything suspicious. Well other than his nurous scandalous relationships."

"Is he in one right now?"

"Hmmm not any important ones, a few A lister celebrities but the ones he boosted into that position."

That was annoying, Yuhi wanted too find so dirt on him. If he could find so dirt, then maybe that guy would leave Sumire alone. He seems to be the type who cares about his status more. "He ca here to use Sumire right?"

"It seems so, she has a good standing in the idol industry. Her debut song star was a huge hit and even now it is in the top 5. She only sang it for three lives and one tv appearance, a total of four tis. Naturally nobody has gotten sick of it yet."

"I have a bad feeling." Yuhi looked at the docunts Jae passed him. "Keep an eye on these won, maybe we could use them."

"Got it."

Atushi returned from the kitchen. "But you know Yuhi, you should be careful with Sano. That guy is a snarky one."

Yuhi raised his eyebrow at this. "You know him?"

"I'm friends with his brother, he was in Sumires class before."

What a strange twist of fate, huh? "I don't like him." Yuhi muttered.

"Nobody liked him. That nice guy acts?" Atushi scoffed. "We all saw through it, The problem is the guy who should have been her boyfriend was acting so wishy-washy and annoying. When Sano appeared and took Sumire away, I was not surprised. Sumire prefers guys who are straight forward."

Yuhi lit up his cigarette with his lighter and inhaled. "You know that guy you ntioned, where was he when Mamoru passed away?"

"Running away like a coward I'm afraid. Nearly all of them did that. Nobody understood what happened. We were all busy preparing for her concert. He was the one who received the call and rushed off. I think he got there before us but could not help."

"I understand it was a harsh ti for you all. I don't want to bla you. But the one who was hurt the most was Sumire." Yuhi sighed. "Couldn't you all put your grievances and conflicting feelings aside and help her out?"

"I understand how you feel Yuhi, but it was not that easy and I think Sumire understood that too. Even if we helped her then, she would not have relied on us but pushed us away instead."

Yuhi understood that mindset too but he still felt frustrated. Those guys were all there to help her and yet nobody did anything.
