Besides, there is something else he is suspicious of. Sumire reluctantly agreed and sat down on the couch. Atsuro bent down and pulled out some tools from his bag. 

Yuhi stood close by just in case, but Atsuro didn't do anything inappropriate. Atsuro asked a few questions, and Sumire answered. After a while, he pulled away.

"Well, I guess you can fool around since she is fully healed."

"Fully healed?" Yuhi said puzzles. "But-"

"I can see that Nagawa interfered a bit with the treatment. She probably felt pain due to the medication he gave her, but it has nothing to do with her injury."

Yuhi paused. So his suspicion was right after all. He suspected that something was amiss. Sumire moved swiftly without that gang boss noticing. If her leg was in such a bad state, she shouldn't be able to move. Moreover the fact that she doesn't need crutches to walk. There were some days where she stumbled over, but if he thought about it, it would make sense.

Suppose she is cooped up in the hospital for so long. Naturally, one would not be able to use their legs.

"Did you know?"

"Uh.." 

Yuhi reached over and pinched her cheeks.

"Ouch, ouch! But I had to wait for a good chance to follow him to the enemy base. Unless I am close and see him every day, it will be hard."

Indeed Nagawa would be on his guard all the time.

Atsuro rolled his eyes. "Do you have to use such extreme methods? Besides, we were close to finding out."

"Your way too slow when it comes to investigating. Shin is too busy watching the SF movements, too, so he had to stop looking into it. I could only do it myself."

"You could have asked me." Yuhi pointed out.

Sumire shook her head. "Like I could do that when my dear is so busy gathering money to spoil his wife for their future."

Yuhi chuckled at his words. "Then shouldn't the wife work hard too?"

"I am," Sumire nodded. "I am working hard getting rid of potential pests."

Atsuros eyes twitched, annoyed. "You two are bold enough to flirt in front of me, are you?"

"Of course, you're only my doctor, and Yuhi is my dearest."

The two bickers again, and Yuhi silently hums to himself. He likes it when Sumire is open like this. It is better for his wife to kill all his romantic rivals, but he doesn't want her to push herself too hard. Moreover, he has more romantic rivals than the average person.

If this were imperial times, then all these people who, like Sumire, would belong to her harem.

Atsuro suddenly tossed a brown envelope in his direction. Despite his distraction Yuhi caught it. "This is what you want."

Yuhi raised his eyebrows. "This shouldn't be easy to obtain."

"Right, so be damned grateful."

Sumire frowned. "Why did you work so hard for my dearest? Atsuro, you better not have taken a liking to Yuhi."

"Do you really have a death wish?" 

Yuhi sighed. "I will take her out; too much time indoors makes people go crazy." Staying cooped up in the hospital for so long must have taken a lot of willpower. How many times did Sumire sneak out?

"Yuhi-san!" Sumire exclaimed.

"First, discuss that." Atsuro pointed to the envelope. He didn't say anything anymore and walked out. But Yuhi did not miss the look on the redhead's face.

It seems the results he wants in this envelope won't be pleasant. 

Yuhi thought Sumire would ask him about the envelope right away, but instead, she turned to the sleeping Huan. "Sometimes, I wonder if he really is mine."

"No need to wonder about it. There is no doubt that he is yours."

Besides, only one person has appeared in this decade with that sonic ability. That child is definitely Mamorus, and Mamoru has never been with a girl other than Sumire. So naturally, Sumire is the mother.

"Say Yuhi, do you like children?"

"Why?"

"I was just wondering how many you would want."

For a moment, Yuhi doesn't say anything, stunned at her sudden question.'….she really has no clue what she is getting herself into.' 

Isn't asking a question like that provoking him? He already lost control of himself earlier; he doesn't want to do it again. 

Then again, it is rare for them to have this opportunity to themselves. The kid is asleep, so it should be fine, right?

"If you're talking about multiple kids, then you have to work hard."

"I have to.." She turned scarlet, realizing the meaning behind his words. "Stupid."

"Not really; you should know what the process of baby-making is.

"Don't be so unreasonable, Yuhi."

"Unreasonable, huh?" Yuhi grabbed hold of her wrist. "I should be the one saying that other than finding out where the enemy base is. Do you have another reason why you stayed in the hospital for so long?"

At that comment, he watched as a nervous look appeared on her face. So there was another reason. 

"I think I have been very patient since we started dating. But I have days where I can't hold things back. I don't want to pressure you to admit things. But this time I am going to seriously ask you. Tell me how you feel about Nagawa?"

At one point, Sumire gradually stepped back, and soon her back hit the wall. Yuhi slammed his hands against the wall, trapping the girl. "Will you say it?"

Sumire took a deep breath and exhaled deeply. "It seems I can't escape this one. How do I feel? It's not that I don't hate him, but to say I have feelings for him? That is wrong too. Not once have I ever liked Nagawa Sano."

"But you-"

"Yes, he hurt me a lot. You probably think the reason I got hurt so much is because I cared, but that is wrong. I can say firmly that I have never had feelings for him. The reason I ended up hurt that badly is because I trusted him. I believed in him. I believed he was a good person, and look what ended up happening. If he broke up with me because he cared for another person, I wouldn't have resented him. But the fact is he cheated when we were still together, showing that he didn't respect me at all."

Yuhis eyes widened at her words. So it was that? 

Sumire sighed and leaned forward as she buried her face in his chest. "Humans are too cruel; why do they have to do such pointless things? If he showed me he was a bad person from the start, I wouldn't have minded it; at least he was honest. But the fact is he lied and pretended to be good."

This shouldn't surprise him. One of his main goals, when Sumire came here, was not only for her to live a normal life but for her to learn and trust other people. He wanted to show her the good in this world.
