Eternal Melody

Chapter 294 - Beating Of My Heart Part 6



Jun opened his cyan blue eyes when he heard a very familiar voice call out to him.

"Hey, are you finally awake?"

He blinked a few times, and eventually, he could see. He found himself in the water but was able to breathe. The person who called out to him sat a few feet away from him.

"Junie?" Jun asks asked as he walked over.

"This is going to sound strange coming from me. But you have to remember the truth, and I am not your brother."

Not his brother…? What is he talking about?

"Aha, that face, it looks like you don't believe me at all."

"Affirmative. According to my data, we are indeed blood-related siblings. Our appearances resemble each other too much." Jun states in a monotone voice, his bangs were starting to annoy him slightly. Unfortunately, since Junie had a firm hold on him, he could not move.

"True with that, I really can't convince you. But, you'll remember soon enough the reason why I ended up looking like this."

Jun looked at him puzzled, "I do not understand… I'm aware I have amnesia, but…it can't be possible that I could mistake my brother."

"Ah ah, what to do with that girl's ability is amazing. But it's weakening, and that's exactly why I'm able to talk to you like this." Junie's gaze turned serious. "You have to remember Jun because that person has always been so very important to you. Someone who could bring tears to your eyes. Someone who can stir up your emotions."

"If I don't wish to remember?"

"But you already care quite a bit about that person. I am sure a part of you has always wanted to remember."

.....

After that odd dream, Jun was not in the mood to work. But he was not the type who would skip out and ditch his responsibilities because of his mood swings. Since they arrived in Tokyo, they are busy every day, and although they enrolled in school, they seldom attend. Jun, however, intended to rearrange his schedule when the summer finishes.

Jun recalled Terashima Yuhi's words and paused. That person is more interesting than he thought; he requires more data.

"Slow down a little bit on the crane shot at the start."

"Camera two, move back before we enter melody B."

"Could we raise the volume on our voices more?" Ran said through the megaphone.

"Please turn down the rhythm section a little."

"Ten seconds till rehearsal. Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, one."

"( ALL) Shining starlight!

"My legs are trembling because of

a sudden happening -

We gotta power!

Changing my crumbled heart with a single hit

, is that also fate?" Jun sang.

"A real every day, various memories

Give me a true love beyond reality!" Ran and Tetsuo sang.

( ALL) Maybe love!

Embrace the tearful smile and throw away the crumbled heart

When the shadows getting closer become.

One, I'll vow - can't stop kiss!

Go through love ignited, beyond the deep heartbeats.

Looking at each other with fingertips overlapped, the two of us - Oh maybe love!

( ALL) Shining starlight!"

"That is a wrap. Perfect, you three."

"Thank you very much."

Even so, to think that the three of them would continue receiving tons of projects together is quite surprising. For a while, the media stuck the three of them on several jobs with the other two. But even that settled down for a bit, and he mainly had work with Ran and Tetsuo.

It's not as though he has a problem with receiving work with these two. But it seems quite strange before they became a group of four, they were three, So every time they receive a job as a group of three together, he half expects to see maroon colored hair and annoying smiles popping up somewhere. But it appears as though he is not present today.

Jun had wanted to question him because that person for sure would know what Junie is talking about. Although it happened in his dream, he really can't be too sure. . However, as he thought so earlier, it felt far too real to be a dream.

Sumire has always said that dreams are the manifestations of people's desires and thoughts,' Nobody can tell a lie in dreams or even a secret. Because not sure whether it is real or not. It is a free space to let your thoughts overflow. In a place like that, isn't it the best place to let a secret out?'

It can't be, can it? Junie is his brother. He can remember it clearly; from a young age, he was the only other person besides her, even though he cannot remember their parents. Now that Jun thought about it, that person turned stiff and made up some sort of excuse before he got into a coma.

Jun quickly learned not to mention it in front of him. It can't be a coincidence, can it? He sighs deeply; that is the fifth night in a row he could not sleep properly. Although Junie only appeared in his dream this morning. It felt like the dreams prior was getting him ready for today.

His thoughts broke off when he felt a sudden warmth on his forehead. His eyes widened when he discovered who the hand belonged to, and it belonged to his team member Ran.

"You have a mild fever. Crap, I knew I should have taken that photoshoot in the rain for you the other day." He cursed.

"I am feverish," he murmurs. He hadn't noticed it at all, but if Ran says so, it's most likely to be true. More importantly, just now, why did the warmth from his hand feel so familiar?

Jun didn't get a chance to say anything since Ran carried him away already. Once he laid down, Ran placed the cooling pad on his forehead and stuck the thermometer on his mouth.

"Thirty seven-point eigh--holy.." Ran trails off. Jun half expected him to start lecturing him but instead feels his hand touch his cheeks. "As I thought you've been looking of for a few days. The light on your room has been on quite a bit these past few nights."

"You noticed that?"

Their rooms are nowhere near each other. So unless he had been walking by that area, he should not have noticed it.

"I did."

Odd, why would this person pay that much attention.

"Ah, Ibuki-san! Welcome."

At that comment, he immediately turned his head and spotted Sumire at the doorway. She had a small bag in her hands and passed it to the director. "I apologize for being late; if you would like, I made a few extra."

As considerate as ever, even though she does not have to do that. Made a few extra? That is a lie. Jun knew she must have woken up early. He hears approaching footsteps, and soon violet-colored eyes peered at him.

"Are you sick, Jun-kun?"

"The idiot has a thirty-eight-degree fever. Im going to call the hospital. Can you stay with him for a bit Sumire?"

"Mmm, okay." Ran dashed off with those words, and Sumire casually sat down on the ground beside the couch.

"You know Jun-kun, you haven't changed."

"I haven't?"

"Whenever you worry about something, you overthink and end up sick."

Indeed that is what happened this time too. It seems that Sumire-san still knows more things about himself than he does. "It was something stupid."

"But even stupid things have a meaning." Sumire trailed off. "Say I wanted to ask you, back then why did you tell me to chase after Ru?"

"I thought he would make you happy."

Sumire laughed softly. "Indeed, you were right there. That person gave me so much happiness. It was because I gained the courage from you that time that I took that step forward, so I wanted to thank you."

What is she doing thanking him for? That is his line, and he is the one who should say thank you. The sheet music she brushed off as a draft was the final version of the song. Even though she struggled like Terashima said, she found the inspiration to write it without realizing it.

"The hands of the clock marking the passage of time,

I was a little jealous of the sound

Becoming even more beautiful in the not-so-distant future,

You're floating

That figure, as your appearance becomes similar enough to compare,

Time was slipping away

As if tricked into it,

I gave up my heart to the music.

But you were angry at some time or another.

Frantically, desperately fighting back tears.

Saying "But still… But still, I'm glad we're able to love each other"

Even if we overcame the bars of the cage of life

By saying "Take my hand.." Jun sang.

It was only a few verses of the song, but he watched as her expression brightened. A brighter smile than before appeared on her face. It reminds him of that time, the time he asked her to go after Mamoru. That bright smile on her face was so very beautiful.
