"Is there something about my concert with Yumi-senpai that would bother them?"
"In the first place Sumire-chan. I think you need to rethink about who you are performing with. It's Takashi Yumi of all people. Do you know how many amazing things that woman has done?"
"Well I do know."
'I thought I did anyway. But Eli is making Yumi-senpai sound like some type of goddess.'
Eli must have understood her thoughts since he placed his hand on his forehead.
"It seems you have no clue. Let us put it this way, Takashi Yumi showed that the power of music can be as deadly as any lethal weapon. What those people are worrying about is your voice.. You have a talent that far surpasses Takahashi Yumi. That person caused a lot of damage with her singing back in the day, of course they do not want a repeat."
"Yumi-senpai saved a lot of people with her singing, to say she used it as a weapon-"
Eli shook his head. "There is no doubt. It happened when you were locked up in that facility though so it is natural you do not know. It seems cliche to say something like music will destroy the world. But there are remains of such information in ancient scripters. Every few centuries a woman with a amazing voice will lead the world to destruction or harmony. For this generation I would say it would be you."
"Hah." Sumire laughed. "You flatter me way too much. I don't think this voice can save anybody, all it does is cause people pain. But not the world destruction pain, I am talking about a more emotional level."
"I think you are the one who is underestimating yourself."
"We can argue about this all day but we all know that nothing will change." Sumire trailed off. "Hey Eli, do you think you can work together with Hino for me?"
At that comment she watched a disturbed expression appear on Eli's face and she laughed. It was similar to the expression Hino-san made whenever she mentioned Eli in front of him.
"If Yuhi and Soujiro can put aside their differences, I thought maybe I can ask you two to do the same."
"I do not think using that logic is very wise. The grudges between those two are small, moreover they are tied by their feelings for you. They would never do anything to harm the other person since it would hurt you."
"I see." Sumire trailed off. "But even Sano put aside his ill feelings and talked to senpai not long ago."
By senpai she was referring to Ichinose Arashi. It surprised her when she learned that they met up and talked.
"It seems you are trying to pair us all up. But then what of Nakura Shin?"
"-with Atsuro." Sumire pulled a face when she thought of the red-haired man. "I honestly hate the idea of talking to that guy. But we need more people. It is more effective to work in pairs than solo."
Moreover she has observed Shin's behaviour towards Atsuro. Shin appears to be closer with Yuhi than Atsuro, even though Shin and Atsuro belong to the same group. There is friction between them but Shin pretends there isn't.
"Then what about you Queen?" Eli joked. "Are you going to work solo while you force us to work with people we despise?"
"There is no need for me to work with anyone."
Besides she already has to trouble those guys. She does not want to drag another person into this. After she parted ways with Eli, somebody ambushes her with a hug the amount she entered the bar. It caused her to lose her balance and she landed on the ground with Yuhi on top of her.
"Yuhi-san, what are you doing?"
"I don't want to hold back anymore."
His words sounded so desperate and needy. It was the first time for her seeing him this way. Moreover, she watched as his brown coloured irises turned a lovely blood shot red. This is a first time for him to openly show this side.
Back when she was still adjusting to this half demon bloodline. Yuhi told her many things. But it did not take her long to realize that Yuhi never shows this side of him.
What a pretty shade of red, unlike hers there was something beautiful about it. Sumire wrapped her arms around his neck.
"I do not mind."
She hasn't minded for a very long time. No even at the start this seemed to come naturally for both of them.
….
After spending the night with him like that, naturally one would expect them to spend the morning cuddling. Normally that is what would happen, but instead she ran away.
'I left him breakfast and a note, but it doesn't change the fact that I escaped.'
She didn't return to Soujiro's mansion or the company, instead she just wandered around town.
Like what Eli told her the previous day she saw many strange people wearing odd cloaks all over town. But they did not pay any attention to her even when she walked directly by them. Perhaps this was a good thing. It was hard for her to focus so getting into a skirmish with them was no good.
When she looked up, she saw a large screen broadcasting a video of Yumi-senpai practicing seriously for the showdown. 'Even when she is training she looks beautiful, such graceful movements.' It will be difficult to beat her but what was weighing on her mind was neither music or the conflict with that organisation.
'Yuhi, what am I going to do with you?'
She already knew that he held back around her. He has made this clear to her so many times already. But each time he holds her now there is something different. Perhaps it was due to the long absence before the next time, but something differs. That something causes a strange feeling in her heart.
What is she going to do about this?
She never thought that Yuhi would become this fond and attached to her. Although she dismissed those rumors regarding Yuhi, she took them with a grain of salt. She still kept it at the back of her mind. People are so wrong about Yuhi. If she told people how loyal Yuhi was they would most-likely laugh at her.
Yuhi will never cheat, hurt or betray her. He will give her everything she has ever wanted in a relationship. He will fulfill all those expectations she thought she got rid of a long time ago.
His feelings for her keep increasing everyday. It is getting harder for her to maintain a distance between them. She is so attached to him, that sometimes she forgets that her hands are stained in blood. How many lives did she claim?
During the time Yuhi left for Tokyo, those unspeakable things she did then. That time was her worst.
Yuhi already learned about what she did in the kidnapping incident. But what if he learns about the rest? He will still accept her, but her heart will never be at ease.
What if one day the day comes where she ends up hurting him?
Sumire sighed deeply. How many times has she had those thoughts? She needs to get a grip. No matter what happens Yuhi won't leave her. If she continues to have such thoughts then it would be bad. These thoughts will be the thing that hurts him.
