Chapter 637 Hold you

Chapter 637 Hold you

One of the many challenges a girl has to face in their life is their period.

'Since coming here, due to the stress levels, it does not happen as frequently.' It stopped before when she got pregnant, and afterward, her cycle became irregular for awhile.

After doing homework with Yuhi, she felt the familiar pain and crawled under the sheets.

But when she checked in the toilet, she was not bleeding. Then, is this due to the irregular cycle? Does her stomach just hurt?

'I didn't eat anything bad either.'

Sumire tilted her head puzzled. Maybe it's a side effect of the new medicine San gave her recently? He did tell her that the new medicine would have unexpected side effects.

Is this one of them? Fortunately, it is not her period; otherwise, she wouldn't be able to fool around with Yuhi-san.

He acts like a lion who finally had it's shackles released. It would be a problem for them both if she was on it.

She felt nauseous too, and she threw up the meal Yuhi made for her.

"Yuhi, you're not going to work?" Sumire knew Yuhi's schedule very well. So it surprised her when she returned from her many bathroom trips to see him still around.

"How can I?" Yuhi kissed her eyelids. "Does it hurt?"

"Yes."

Yuhi nodded. "What do you normally do on days like this?"

"I'd lay down in bed all day since I can't move and cry because it hurts." Sumire trailed off.

Should she mention to him that this pain is different than usual? Or would that only make him worry about her more?

"You're not crying now."

"Km, because you're spoiling me, Yuhi."

Yuhi gently kissed her eyelids again and mumbled. "If you cry, I'll be here."

He is so gentle, so kind.

She wants nothing more from him than this when she is in pain. He must understand that very well.

"Sumire, you're sweating a lot; you don't want to go to the hospital?"

"I'm okay." She mumbled weakly.

It hurts a lot. It's so unfair; others who go through this don't experience this much pain. But she just has to be part of the group that does.

Yuhi kissed her lips lightly. "I guess it was a bad idea to fool around."

Sumire laughed. "It's fine; it just started."

"Does your stomach just hurt?"

"I feel nauseous. I threw up a bit earlier."

At those words, she watched Yuhi look at her with an odd expression.

"Is something wrong, my dear?"

"N-nothing." Yuhi trailed off and pulled out his guitar from the corner. "I'll sing you something."

"Mmm, thank you. I like listening to you sing."

"I see you standing here

But you're so far away

Starving for your attention

You don't even know my name

You're going through so much

But I know that I could be the one to hold you

Every single day

I find it hard to say

I could be yours alone

You will see someday

That all along the way

I was yours to hold

I was yours to hold

I see you walking by

Your hair always hiding your face

I wonder why you've been hurting

I wish I had some way to say

You're going through so much

Don't you know that I could be the one to hold you." Yuhi sang.

Oh, he is singing this song in english, despite her lack of understanding. Yuhi can convey the emotional aspects very well. His singing is so good that it overcomes the language barrier.

Her gaze softened. 'He keeps singing for me too.' This person, since his first confession. No, ever since they met during that snowy concert several years ago. Not once has he stopped singing for her.

Sumire eventually drifted off, listening to his voice like this. Maybe she can rest peacefully.

"Yeah, it's fine. I can do it from here. I'll send you guys the stuff over, and you can practice without me." Yuhi had exited the room when he saw the caller ID.

He didn't want to wake her when she finally got some rest. It worried him that she might overhear the conversation too. With her personality, if she overheard, she would certainly persuade him to leave.

"What about Sumire-san?"Jun asked.

"Sumire? She's resting now. I'll tell her to call you when she is better."

"You better take care of her."

"Of course, I'll take care of her." Yuhi trailed off. "Is something wrong?"

"Ran-san is causing problems again. He insists that you keep neglecting her, and that's why she keeps going to Nagawa Sano. He is not happy about the rumors about you and the childhood friend too."

"I haven't seen Cas in awhile since she returned. You can reassure Ran that I'll put a stop to the ridiculous rumors myself."

"Yuhi-san, you should probably drop the nickname; others will misunderstand and think you are close to her."

"Right."

"Also, Sumire-san will get jealous."

"Over a nickname?"

"You'll be surprised. She always says jealousy turns people into monsters. If you continue using that nickname, you'll see a true monster."

His sweatdropped. It's not like she hasn't mentioned it, but he didn't think too deeply about it.

"I got it, and also, are you alright?"

"Did I do something worth your concern?"

"Transfering to the art department. I didn't tell Sumire the reason why and pretended I forgot. But you know how sharp she is. Moreover, she will often visit the music building now. She will find out."

The reason why Jun transferred is because he was getting bullied. It was a severe case of bullying. When Ran and the others are around, they naturally cannot get to Jun, but there are days when those guys are busy. Even when they are around, they can't be together all the time.

"This is not new. I have experienced this before and have enough data to deal with the situation."

"If you did, you wouldn't have transferred departments." Yuhi sighed. "Look, I am only saying this because I am worried about you."

"I am aware, but please do not let her find out yet."

"You said it happened before. Is this back in tsukuhara?"

"Yes. Sumire-san dealt with the bullies. But it led to worsening her reputation. It seems even the company had to step in and help conceal what had happened. It was troubling."

"I see; you didn't want to cause problems for her?"

"Back then, she was going through a lot. So I did not want to burden her with my issues."

Ha, this sounds very familiar.

'I didn't want to trouble you, Yuhi-san.'

"You know, Sumire will find out at the end of the day. So before she hears it from your bully's mouth, you should confine her."

"With her personality, you know she will confront them directly. This timing is not good."

"I understand. But you can rest assured, I'll have her back."

He won't let Sumire walk into a dangerous situation.

"Then, I shall do so when she gets better."

"Alright, take care." With those words, Yuhi ended the call.

'I am still worried, but it's the weekend right now. Jun should be fine.'

Ran seems to care a lot for Jun, unlike the other two. Ran laughs more around the stone-faced boy. It's an unusual combination, but he can rely on that care.
