Chapter 605 All I want
The media are very cunning people, at least the ones after her. They know all about her weakness- no, they know how bad her mental health is. To take advantage of another person's mental health like this, what sick and twisted people. Even if they have to make a living, this is going overboard.
'I shouldn't have opened it. But I was curious what sort of stunt they came up with.' To think they are now attacking her emotionally.
Yuhi wrapped his arms around her and hugged her tightly. "What's wrong, Sumire?"
"Nothing."
"Your sulking; if this is about Cas, you don't have to worry. She really is nice. I don't know what misunderstanding happened between Hino and her. But it would be better not to make a judgment until you meet her."
"Then what if I meet her and not like her?"
Will Yuhi abandon her then? If Yuhi abandons her because he has somebody else who is far better, then how does she persuade him to stay?
"Then I'll stand by your decision."
At those words, her eyes widened.
For a moment, Sumire froze. He is so silly; if he stands by her words, then he won't be able to speak to his childhood friend anymore. 'I want to be petty.' Such dark thoughts and feelings exist inside her.
The media are right about her. She is truly a twisted and corrupt person. But what she has always wanted is for somebody to care for her and her alone.
'I don't want to share Yuhi-san's affections with anybody.'
Sumire thought back to the girl on the screen and those photos. Yuhi looked so happy. It was the first time for her to see him like this. So Yuhi can smile like this in front of another person? That should be a good thing, but she felt disturbed,
She turned around and rolled on top of him.
"My dear, I don't want to share."
His gaze remained gentle, and he caressed her back. "Nothing will change."
"You're not mad at me?"
"No, I'm flattered that you are possessive enough to worry."
'If I told him the media provoked me, he won't like it very much. I wonder if he saw the photos on the desk before bringing me upstairs?'
"Is there anything between you and that girl? You know, before I hear about it from anybody else."
He looks so handsome. It wouldn't surprise her if he had other women who genuinely liked him.
"Nothing is between us," Yuhi answered confidentially. "Just friends."
Yuhi-san isn't lying. Then, how come Hino reacts that way whenever anybody mentions that woman? Something doesn't add up.
Sumire brushed her lips against his. 'Ah, I just want to eat him up.'
"What is it?"
"I want to eat you," Sumire admitted.
If she eats him up, she can claim him as her one and only. One and only has a nice ring to it.
Yuhi raised his eyebrow. "Eat, huh?"
"Mmm, my dear, you look tasty."
"Sumire, I have said this before, but you can do what you want with me."
At those words, Sumire sighed, and her cheeks colored. "If I really do that, we will have a problem. Besides, you know I am only behaving this way because I am being stupidly insecure."
"It's not stupid; everything you do is--"
Sumire covered his mouth. "Alright, quit it. I am just in a bad mood; you don't have to appease me."
"You don't have to be in a bad mood. We just did something nice."
"Hooligan."
Yuhi's lips curve to a smile. "I'm the hooligan? Didn't you just say you wanted to eat me?"
True, she did say that. There is this perfectly lavish meal in front of her. It would be a waste not to take advantage of it. Sumire thought for a few seconds before she kissed him deeply.
After kissing for a few minutes, she got off him and buried her face in his arms. Yuhi wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her closer.
"The media are picking on you again; just ignore them, okay?"
So he did see those pictures.
"Is there really nothing?"
"There is nothing between us. Please trust me, okay?"
"I do trust you," Sumire mumbled. If she doesn't trust him, she won't be able to trust another person ever again. "But I don't think I want to meet her."
It may seem mean of her to say this. But she truly doesn't want to get herself involved with somebody who could potentially like Yuhi-san. Moreover, if she is truly a good girl like Yuhi-san says, she would feel guiltier.
It would look like she is keeping two perfectly normal people away from each other.
'I am already starting to feel inferior before I meet her.'
Maybe she ought to continue attacking him; her mood keeps turning for the worse. Before Sumire could proceed, however, they heard the sound of the door.
"Sumire and Yuhi, if you don't come down here in three seconds-"
Yuhi sighed and kissed her forehead softly. "We better go ; let's continue later."
"Later?"
"Mmm, later. We can do what you like."
That does sound like a good plan. By the time they reached the lounge area, Hino had already made himself comfortable. There were all sorts of documents scattered on the table.
Sumire quickly took a seat but not before Yuhi kissed her. "Mm, see you in a sec. I'll bring refreshments."
"Okay."
The entire time she found herself staring at Yuhi. Recently he does that a lot, those random kisses. It is not like she is complaining; after all, she likes everything he does to her.
"So it's Yuhi in the end?" Hino followed her gaze.
Sumire coughed, realizing that she got caught staring.
"I didn't say that. Rather, I'm only eighteen. If I decide now, I feel like I'd regret it when I'm older."
'What stupid words. I am already going to marry Yuhi-san, so is it not obvious that I have already decided?'
Hino laughed. "Well, that's like you. " A soft and tender expression appears on his face. "But your right about that. You don't have to rush things, your still young right now. Even me, despite being several years older. We don't have to rush things; we can take our time, especially in matters regarding love. For people like us, it may be better to focus on our career first."
"Idols don't exactly have a lot of time, do they?"
"'Idols don't. But, you can still become famous in the entertainment industry while singing. You simply become a singer, a talent rather than an idol. In reality, nothing changes; you can keep on singing as long as you can. It's not just singing. When you retire from being an idol, you can focus on becoming professionals in other areas like fashion, dancing, acting."
"The entertainment world, huh? Even now, it's far too complex for me to understand."
'All I want to do is sing, but many people want to stop me from doing so.' There are many who target her and use such poisonous words. It is easy to say just ignore them. It is easy to say those words, but when it comes to dealing with the situation? It is hard.
