Eternal Melody

Chapter 579 - 2012- The Diary Entries

Moreover, he knew how important the girl's dream was. "The good news is. This girl is more talented than me. All she has to do is debut, and after a few singles, she will match me easily."

"But debuting, you know she-"

"I know, and that's why she has to find a better company. I am sure many are willing to poach her over."

"I will look into it."

"Mamoru, you have to take care of her while I am gone. No, until she is ready to go to Tokyo."

If Sumire takes the music scene seriously, she will eventually go to Tokyo. In that place, they will meet again, and then maybe he can confess to her once again. When she has more confidence, perhaps they can be together properly.

His gaze fell on Mamoru, who was looking at her concerned. "However, if something happens between you two while I am gone, then that is fine too."

He does not mind if it is Mamoru. Although there are plenty of others who like her, he can tell that Mamoru is the one who will treat her like a treasure.

"You don't have to worry about that; unless something drastic happens, I won't confess to her." Mamoru smiled weakly. "I know my place. The one Ki loves and has longed for this entire time is you? I am content with what I have with her now."

After a few more words, Mamoru left; he returned to reading some documents and briefly looked at his laptop screen. It was the plans for expanding the company Tokyo branch. The expansion will become the main branch, so naturally, all the core artists must move.

'What is with this terrible timing. I don't want to go.' Even if Sumire didn't turn him down, he would have still been reluctant to part ways with her even if he did not learn the truth.

He took it for granted, coming here and spending time with her every day. When he returns to Tokyo, he will have difficulty surviving his days since she is not beside him anymore.

He should change the water. Yuhi carefully put Sumire's head down on the pillow as he stood up; on his way to the bathroom, he spotted a journal in her desk.

It was wide open, and he knew better than to look, but he had to after spotting his name.

December 14th

Yuhi went on a dangerous mission today without telling me. When I heard it from the others, I was so angry. But then I saw those stupid notes he slips inside my books, and although it is no longer new, it made me smile.

Yuhi blinked when he saw that entry. He felt his heartbeat increase. Is it just a coincidence that she wrote about him? He recalled her short confession and paused, perhaps- he flicked towards a random page in her journal.

February 14th

Today is valentines day, and I casually mentioned chocolates in front of him the other day. I think he got the hint, at least since he only ate my chocolates despite receiving all those boxes.

I fear for my future. I have too many rivals.

March 20th

Today I am going on my first mission with Yuhi-san after a long time. I am slightly nervous. After last time I learned my lesson, so I at least put on makeup even though I am not familiar with it. I hope it looks okay. I hope he notices and compliments me.

If he calls me pretty, I think I will be very happy.

March 23rd

It took the fool two entire days to realize that there was something different about me. Even then, he had to think about what it was. I didn't realize he was this slow.

March 24th

Aki just informed us that the mission would extend a little, and we have to stay overnight. Thankfully we are in separate living quarters; otherwise, my heart might stop.

March 25th

I said separate living quarters, but I simply meant separate rooms. We still share the same kitchen living room- I felt like my heart has been beating rapidly when I realized we practically have to live together.

March 26th

I didn't realize that Yuhi-san was so muscular. Ahem, it seems I have underestimated him a bit despite staring at him every time he works out. This is the first time I got a proper look, and I have to admit that my thoughts went wild. I wonder if I can get to touch. Does he sleep like that?

This silly girl, she truly likes him. Judging from this, she has liked him for a long time too. Yuhi exhaled deeply. Why didn't she just tell him? Her heart was beating so fast; that is his line. It drove him crazy hearing each movement from her in the other room.

Still, it was not just him who was self-conscious and had weird thoughts- Yuhi paused in mid-thought. Her feelings aside, he didn't realize that she would have such strange thoughts about him.

He continued to read through the entries.

June 24th

I heard from the others that Yuhi-san had plans for me. But I did not expect a mini-concert at my doorstep the moment the date changed to June 24th. It surprised me. No man has ever serenaded at my doorstep before. I have to admit it was quite romantic. Even more when he sent the others away and said he wanted to spend some time with me.

Right, her birthday. He didn't hesitate to express that he wanted to be with her then. It was a Friday, so they both had school, but they both ditched and went on a trip to the next town. The next three days with her were like heaven. He got to see her smile more.

August 31st

I did not think he would invite me out to see the fireworks. It seems like he is getting bolder recently, but he is still a bit slow. It took him a while before he complimented my appearance; moreover, he did not wear a Yutaka. It would have been nice if we matched. I teased him a little, but I got to see his red-stained face, which pleased me.

September 9th

I think Yuhi-san is messing with me too much recently. He keeps inviting me to train with him in the gym at the headquarters- and this behavior is causing me to think even weirder things.

September 17th

Yuhi-san showed up at my school. I did not think he would participate in the student exchange program. He caused a scene when he asked or rather forced the person next to me to change seats. The person beside me being Ru, I thought they would talk it over nicely, but no. Sometimes it feels like I am babysitting children.

September 18th

Sharing a textbook with Yuhi-san is nerve-wracking. Our hands keep accidentally brushing against each other how; I want nothing more than to keep holding on.

He stopped reading when he heard her toss and turned on the bed. Yuhi quickly joined her again and pulled the girl into his arms. He frowned, realizing how cold her body was. She was just sweating a lot moments ago. Yuhi hesitantly removed his shirt and pulled the girl into his arms.

This would work better if she was not wearing anything, but he is not an immoral man. How could he get her out of her clothes without her consent? But the more he thought this, the colder her body became.

'Alright, she can curse him for being a bastard later on. I can't let her die.' If she continues to shiver like this, she will seriously become sick. Yuhi hesitated but removed the clothes the girls were wearing. It did not take long before her beautiful bare skin was in sight.

'She is so pretty. I thought so before, but what is this? How can she be this beautiful.'

Yuhi felt his body heat up, but he quickly shook his head and pulled half the blanket around her. Before pulling the girl into his arms again.

She is seriously causing him problems. Yuhi recalled what he had just read moments ago, and his lips curved to a smile.

November 24th

I have decided that I want to debut seriously.

If I have to move agencies, I will do it.

I want to stand by Yuhi-san.

'Silly girl, if that is the case, then maybe it is fine for things to remain this way.' He will still wait for her at the station.. But even if she does not come, they will eventually see each other again.
