Eternal Melody

Chapter 710: Like a dream



Chapter 710: Like a dream

“It’s weird; the everyday landscape begins to seem special    

    

the flowers, birds, and sea, the wind, mountains, sweet sun

when everything shines and cuddles together 

I found the last piece to the unsolvable jigsaw puzzle

your broad back protects me, and I’ll continue to follow you

for eternity.” Sumire sang.

Certainly, this song would be a good way to end the event. It’s a love song, so she will certainly get critics for it. But unlike the pure image from only one, the critics for this one shouldn’t be a lot.

Sumire sighed, and Yuhi looked at her, puzzled. “What’s wrong? Do you not like my idea?”

“No, I was just thinking. Yuhi-san, don’t hesitate to use whatever opportunity you can to show off my feelings for you. You’re a typical guy.”

“What’s wrong with that? Besides, you’re just admitting that all your love songs are about me.”

“That’s wrong; it’s more like at least ninety percent of my songs are for you.”

Even the songs she writes about her dreams and goals end up being linked to Yuhi. After all, without him, she would never have found her dream.

“At this rate, my entire life will revolve around Yuhi.”

“That’s strange, wife; my life has always revolved around you. So I am a bit offended that yours isn’t the same.”

For a moment, she felt her heart flutter at those words. Even without looking at his face, she knows what type of expression he is making. Oh, this dummy must have honey in his mouth today. He keeps saying stuff that she likes.

“It’s only ten percent Yuhi.”

Yuhi kissed her again. “I am cruel, so I want to steal even that ten percent away. Think only about me; love me more, Sumire.”

Perhaps it was due to the heat from being in the bath for a long time, but she felt dizzy. It almost seems like she is in a trance. After kissing her, he suddenly lifted her up. Normally this would embarrass her, but she felt lightheaded.

“Alright, that’s enough for now. You’re satisfied, right?”

“Mm, I’m happy.”

Yuhi leads them out of the bath and directly into the bedroom next door. He sits her down on the bed and covers her with the blanket. 

“Get changed. I’ll finish up and bring the food here.”

Oh, that’s right. Before this, she was cooking for him. “There shouldn’t be much left to do; just add some seasoning to the soup.”

“Understood. But I thought I’d make you some deserts too. Or are you not hungry?”

Yuhi’s desserts, her eyes brightened, and Yuhi sighed. “Sometimes it feels like your are only going to marry me for my cooking skills.”

“That’s part of it.”    

    

He pinched her cheeks. “Cheeky. But your cute, so I will forgive you.” Yuhi bent down and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead. His lips lingered there for a few extra seconds. “I can’t wait to see what you made for me.”

“Ah, you have to give me the omelet. I plan to write a message for you.”

Yuhi chuckled. “Understood.” With those words, he disappeared, and she rummaged through the draws. She picked up one of Yuhi’s shirts and slipped it on. 

This is a lot more comfortable to move in. So she often finds herself wearing Yuhi’s T-shirts. 

The song she will be singing, love chronicle, huh? 

“The two will never part, huh?”

She is starting to remember her emotions when writing this song. A song about two lovers never parting again. No matter what happens, they will stick together. Indeed, it certainly is about Yuhi and her. However, Ru’s image flashed through her mind.

Perhaps, it can also apply to him. 

When she confirmed that Ru was alive, she immediately thought. ‘I never want to part from him again.’ But, using those fleeting emotions seems wrong of her.

Although she doesn’t mention Ru much anymore, she always thinks of him. Her relationship with Yuhi has improved; they have gotten closer and marriage. They will be getting married soon. At the start of their relationship and when she first came here, it was still okay to mention Ru. But, if she continued to do that, there would be no progress.

‘It’s cruel of me to still have Ru in my thoughts, but these feelings are more regretful than love. If only I didn’t take Ru’s hand then-‘ Sumire shakes her head. What use is there thinking of what-if scenarios now? It’s not like she can go back in time.

‘Even if I went back, I still wouldn’t have accepted Yuhi’s hand, and the same thing would have happened.’

She is so stubborn. ‘Yuhi and Ru, why do you two love me this much?’ An image of Hino flashed through her mind. Ah, that’s right, there is one more person whose feelings are powerful.

She recalled Hino’s reaction earlier. This is the first time he is asking her out on an outing, date, or whatever it is. It would be the first time they went out anymore. As close friends, one would normally think they have gone to several places together. But it’s not like that.

‘We get along very well, but will it be different when we go on an outing?’

This is troubling; she has to be very careful to ensure that she doesn’t say anything wrong. But, from the very start, Hino has never judged her. The reason she felt more comfortable with him is it because he had investigated her beforehand, and he already knew everything. Or is it because he is somebody Yuhi trusts?

It suddenly got complicated again, her love life. She thought out of all the guys who like her; she would never have to worry about Hino. But, maybe it is getting hard for him to hold back. It’s not like he is making any actual moves toward her, but she feels strange thinking about him.

Yet, even these moments will always lead back to Yuhi. 

Her thoughts broke off when somebody picked her up. “Seeing you so love-struck, who is the lucky guy?”

She buried her face in his neck. “Yuhi.” 

“Is it Hino?”

“Mmm, I was just thinking. It’s strange being around him recently.”

“Maybe you are starting to like him?”

Sumire sighed. “Don’t joke about that.” She wrapped her arms around his neck and mumbled. “You’re the only one who has my heart, body, and soul, only you.”

“I told you this before, but whenever you confess to me. I get turned on.”    

    

“After dinner, just once. We can’t hurt the children after all.” She mumbled.

Sumire thought Yuhi would behave like he did earlier, but he didn’t.

“Then let’s hurry and eat. So I can have you.”

How silly; he must have sensed her turbulent emotions. This person will truly do anything to make her happy. To be loved like this every day feels like a dream to her. A dream that she doesn’t want to wake up from.
