Chapter 1034 This is me Part 10

SUMIRE

For the next few days, they met up more often in the dream space. Sometimes they didn't say much and simply held each other. For her, for him too. It was enough.

If she thought her previous times being hospitalized was bad, then her current situation was similar to hell. Sano was watching over her too much, and Toh seldom left her side either. Her attempts to sneak out have failed too, and Toh is being very careful with who she sends messages too.

Sumire sighed frustrated. She really wants to check up on the underworld. Hino already explained what has been happening in the entertainment industry. But, nobody is saying anything about the underworld. She needs to know what is going on.

Before she disappeared for two months, she was investigating the situation with the Holy Knights main branch. According to what Lucifer told her, Aki is being possessed by something. That explains why he hasn't been around. Aki often disappears, so she wasn't too worried. However, he has never disappeared for that long. When the attacks started to happen in star town, and he still didn't come back. Sumire knew something was wrong.

The sound of her phone ringing woke her up.

"Mmm, yes?"

"Hey. You okay?"

Sumire looked around and saw a note from Toh on her bedside table.

"I'm fine. I didn't think it would abruptly end just as I was about to enter the examination."

Yuhi chuckled. "It's fine, I think you made your point. Turn your camera on?"

She sees the marks and nods in approval. "You're right, it did turn out well."

"Are we okay?"

Sumire paused but nodded. "We are. I am still upset that you came up with such a ridiculous plan. But, it's not like I don't understand. Now you know the truth though. Even with my memories back, I am choosing you."

"Okay, I'm sorry for doubting you."

'I miss you everyday..' Sumire stopped herself from saying that. It's already hard for the two of them to be apart from each other.

"My dear, have you eaten?"

Yuhi paused, that brief pause was more than enough for her to understand. "Please eat something, I'll also have my meal." She points to the tray on her bedside table. "If we eat at the same time, it will be like eating together won't it?"

Yuhi slowly nodded and she moved the tray so it was on her lap. Sumire watched Yuhi take a few takeaway boxes from the fridge. If they had more time she would suggest that he cooked something. However, she wants them to eat at the same time.

"My dear, you're by yourself aren't you?"

"Yeah."

"Should I ask someone to-"

Yuhi shakes his head. "The reason I left the mansion was because of this. I just need space to think."

"You must be lonely."

At those words Yuhi shakes his head. "Loneliness is fickle. Since you've made sure to call me everyday, since you returned. I haven't felt lonely."

Her gaze softened. "We can see each other again in the dream later. I just have a few tests to do today."

Yuhi nodded. "Don't worry about me. I'll use the next few hours to think about what I will do to you." He trails off. "There is this thing I want to try with my fingers-"

Sumire's cheeks reddened at his words and Yuhi raised his eyebrow. "You know, you really are hard to predict. One moment you're pouncing on me and the next you're acting like a shy little girl."

"That's because you're being too shameless about it." Sumire takes a bite of the rolled omelette.

"Then tell me love, how am I supposed to speak to you?"

Sumire paused at his words. Actually, she would find it odd if he stopped being so shameless. She would assume something was wrong with him if he did that.

Spotting Satomi at the door, she walked over and picked him up. "Say hello to Daddy."

"Dada!" Satomi exclaimed.

"Hey kid, make sure to take care of your mother. She isn't well."

So he knew about her fever. "I'm fine. I don't have much to do today so I'll rest."

Rather even if she wants to do more, she wouldn't be able to. Toh isn't here right now and Sano isn't in sight. But, there is no doubt that Sano is somewhere, he could watch her.

After speaking with Yuhi on the phone, she plays with Satomi and Kyoko who shortly appeared after her call with Yuhi-san. When she first saw Kyoko during her third day after returning. Sumire burst into tears. Her little girl looked so pale, and she was flinching every so often, clearly uncomfortable being touched.

Atushi explained the situation to her in detail.

She knew it was bad, because even Toh explained why Lucifer ended up agreeing to the deal to return her.

'He acts that way, but I've never seen him torture a child. So, I assumed he had a soft spot for children.'

"Mama." Kyoko said, extending her hands out. "Hug Kyoko."

Sumire turned to Satomi who nodded as he moved away from her. Sumire scoops her daughter in her arms and Kyoko hugs her tightly.

"Mama safe now. Mama with Kyoko."

'Her powers- as long as I am hospitalized, there is a limit to what I can do. But, the moment I'm free to go. I'll go to the HYOU4 headquarters and look into their records. There has to be something to help Kyoko. My presence by her side has helped her greatly. However, there are still times where her daughter wakes up screaming.'

She ought to have returned sooner.

Poor Kyoko has suffered so much. She wouldn't have suffered through the transition of her powers if she was there.

'I really am doing a bad job at being a mother. I already knew I wasn't cut out for this. Sano suggested getting rid of the child. But, I couldn't abort the children.'

It didn't take long before she lulled Kyoko to sleep. Satomi clearly wasn't tired but kept Kyoko company in the crib.

'I should make them some milk. I can't breastfeed in my current state.' Sumire covers the remaining food with lids and places it on her bedside table.

Hearing loud sounds as she approached the window, Sumire quickly pressed a button on the wall to close the curtains.

Right now, her children and Yuhi-san are everything to her. While her dreams are important. Just for this short time, she needs to focus on being a mother for children, especially for her daughter.
