Eternal Melody

Chapter 525 - Tell Me The Truth



Unfortunately it was hard for him to focus on the feeling of her lips for long because he remembered the crowd. They seemed startled but that surprise wore off since he heard the sound of people snapping photos on their phone. He was about to pull away from Sumire but she deepened the kiss.

After five or so minutes she drew back. But there was a problem, the sight of Sumire after the kiss was very alluring. There were traces of saliva that remained on her lips, and the passionate gaze in her eyes. Yuhi removed his jacket and placed it over her head.

He quickly dumped the documents into his bang and grabbed hold of her hand. He didn't waste enough time running off with her.

'This girl, how many times do I have to drag her out of troublesome situations?' This reminds him off the past. Did this not happen frequently too? Back then how many times did she get into trouble?

..

"I think this is far enough." Yuhi declared as he stopped running.

The place they arrived at was a clearing nearby the park they frequently passed by. His gaze fell towards Sumire who had remained silent this entire time.

"Sorry abou--" His sentence fell short when he saw the look on her face. The alluring look had vanished replacing it with the look of an innocent and shy girl. Moreover, the jacket he put around her head seemed to make her look cuter.

Yuhi felt his heart beat speed up like crazy and he pulled his hands away. "You should be more careful."

Sumire extended her hand out and tugged on his clothes. "Was it wrong of me to show my feelings for you?"

"No, that's--"

Of course it wasn't wrong, but he didn't think she would display it that way. Normally she uses her songs to convey her feelings for him. 'I never thought she would express it physically.' But, then again they did just have that talk about desires recently.

Yuhi sensed her upset tone and sighed. He doesn't want her to misunderstand. He took a step forward and pulled the girl into his embrace.

"I'm just worried about your public image." Yuhi admitted.

There are still many disturbing rumors about her. Moreover the more he shows his love for her, the more people who are against it appear. 'They keep bringing up her past relationships in front of me.'

It does not help how the media recently found out about Sumire dating Nagawa. It caused quite the uproar due to their age difference at the time they dated.

There is still that fashion design student. Yuhi tried to look into the matter but he couldn't find out who it is. How odd, it shouldn't be this hard to find another person. But, there is no trace of him.

'Maybe I can ask Sumire for a name? But it would look like I am prying.'

He does not want her to think that he doesn't trust her.

"It's okay, if there are more bad rumors since it will be about me and you."

"Hey now."

Sumire's gaze softened. "It truly is fine now. I said it before that no matter what happens whether it is on a macro or minor scale. I have people by my side now. It will not end up like it did before."

"I'm worried, earlier you were shaking so much."

"It's true that there are days where I am still afraid. But Yuhi, like I said you gave me the strength to stand on stage and face my fears. I need to learn to stand on stage without you, but I can work that out. I do not have to rush the process. For a while I have to rely on you, but Yuhi you don't mind right?"

"I don't, actually rely on me more." Yuhi muttered frustrated. "You have a bad habit of trying to do everything yourself."

Yuhi understood the main reason for that is because she has lived that type of life with nobody reliable around her.

Sumire laughed. "Mmm, I understand. Then from now on I will bother you more." She pulled away from his arms and stretched her arms.

"I didn't get a chance to finish all the food, it's a waste."

"It's fine, I can just buy it again."

Sumire sighed. "You have no concept of being poor."

"Sorry I ruined our date." Yuhi apologised.

She shook her head. "It's okay, I mean we started talking about serious work topics so that already spoiled things. Even though we ran out quickly, you still brought that?"

"Yeah."

"I have already memorised all the information, so it would have been fine to leave it."

His sweat fell at her words. Who memorizes all of that in one go? Then again she probably does that so she can get rid of the evidence quickly. In her own way she is trying to protect Nagawa. If she disposes of the evidence that quickly nobody can trace it back.

"Your love for Nagawa is strong." Yuhi joked but this only earned him a harsh glare, and her stepping on his foot.

Yuhi yelped in pain. "Are there spikes on your shoes or something?"

"Maybe I should invest in some."

She seemed angry, of course she had the right to be.

"I thought we discussed it, why are you still so bitter? Or do you really want me to return to San?"

"You know calling him San doesn't help." Yuhi had to point this out. What is with the nickname? It bothers him more than I ought to.

Sumire sighed deeply as she rubbed the temple of her forehead with her fingers. "You truly don't understand a thing."

How is he supposed to understand when she is being so vague about everything?

'I thought I understood everything about her but there are days where I cannot read her emotions. During those times I do not know what to do.' Her little act with Nagawa bothered him more than he thought. Yuhi grabbed hold of her wrist and pushed her against a nearby tree.

"Yesterday...yesterday your friends told me some strange things. No Atushi told me strange things, I thought he was just talking nonsense at the time. But I still want to know what the truth is." Yuhi loosened his grip on her wrist. "I don't know what's going on anymore. Tell me the truth,I only have to hear it from you. I'll only believe you."

Yuhi clenched his fist, that's right he has had enough

He doesn't know what to believe anymore.

Ever since Sumire arrived he has heard, all sorts of things. Which is actually the truth? The reason why there are so many bad rumors about Sumire, it seems she has done loads of despicable things as a member of the underworld. He did not mind that part, he has done bad things too. But what frustrates him is not knowing the extent of those bad things.

She had missions to seduce guys for information. How badly did that affect her personality?

"Tell me the truth." Yuhi raises his voice slightly. Only from you, I'll only believe the words you say to me personally."
