Eternal Melody

Chapter 851 Glorious Sunshine Part 5



SUMIRE

It seemed to be one of the better decisions she made in her life. Because when she broke down after Ru's accident, the first one to reach out to her was Atushi. He was the one who silently watched over her when she locked herself in Ru's home. He was the one who kept the reporters at bay, and when she randomly went to Tokyo? Atushi followed immediately.

Not even a week had passed when she heard that he was in Tokyo.

"I don't know whether I should take that as a compliment or not." Atushi trailed off. "Seeing Yuhi even for a bit seems to have brought some colour back to your cheeks. You've been looking a bit haggard recently."

"Mm. It's because of the concert. I haven't been resting much. But it's fine, I'll catch up on sleep after the concert."

Atushi frowned and shook his head. "Should I tell Yuhi how reckless you are?"

Sumire sweat fell seeing him hold up his phone. "I think he already knows. He told me that he had work to do and that's why we had to cut our time in the dream space short. But, he most-likely saw how tired I was."

"You should get some sleep. After you eat, take a nap? You don't have rehearsals today right?"

Sumire nodded and looked around. "I dropped by to see the others. But, is everyone busy?"

"Yeah, we've been working together with Hyou4 recently to do some patrols around the town. Lucifer's people are causing problems everywhere, not just the underworld. While we have eyes and ears in the underworld. It's difficult for us to keep an eye out on their activities in more formal settings. So teaming up with Hyou4 was the best solution." Atushi studied her expression. "That is what you meant by your memo right?"

Sumire nodded. "I'm sorry for leaving everything to you, but I have had a lot to do recently."

"Including tracking down Aki?"

She sighed deeply and bit her lip. "It's weird. I know he has moments where he disappears for a long time, but never this long. Something is going on here."

Atushi frowned. "Isn't it unusual that nobody has seen him at all? Like, he just vanished out of nowhere. If he left the town, there would be tracks. But there is nothing."

"You think so too?"Sumire shakes her head. "It's too strange. I can't help but worry that something bad has happened to him. This is the longest time he has vanished. The others only just told me, because they wanted to deal with the situation themselves. But, it isn't easy to run a place without a leader."

"Is Kain Ryuuji in charge for now?"

Sumire nodded. "Ryuuji-kun hates being a leader. But, with both me in Tokyo and Aki missing. There is nobody else who can take charge, and let's face it. Futaba isn't leadership material."

Atushi chuckled. "Indeed, she ends up rather blood thirsty after a battle. I guess that's why you two are best friends."

Sumire rolled her eyes. "Best friends bury bodies, and cause destruction together. If Futaba is a bad leader, it's because she is the type to bury bodies instead."

Atushi exhaled deeply. "Should I worry that's what your definition of a best friend is?"

"I miss her." Sumire admitted.

She doesn't have many female friends, and amongst them. Futaba was the one who understood her the most. Even though she had more in common with Asuka, Siena and Asahi. Futaba was the only one who could truly understand her/

"She wants to come here you know? Narasaki is holding that tournament, and invited the guys in Nanairofeather. Futaba might use it as a chance to come here."

Sumire shook her head. "Futaba won't do that. She may not be able to lead, but Star town's current state is unstable. She won't leave the town."

"Knowing it's a place you treasure, right?"

She bit her lip and nodded. "Futaba won't leave with the situation being like this. With those two there, Star town should be fine." She trailed off. "I did make a deal with Lucifer for him to just come at me and pull his forces away from Star twon, and I am sure he will gradually do that. But because of the trouble his people have caused, other groups have started to rise up and cause problems with the Holy knights."

Groups who Aki-san have offended, or have been ripped apart due to committing heinous crimes.

Her thoughts break off hearing the sound of her phone.

From: Yuh

(Attached ten pictures)

Sumire blinked. How rare for him to take photos. She tilts her head puzzled, and opened the first attachment. The moment she saw a glimpse of bare skin, she almost dropped her phone.

From:

Be satisfied with those my wife.

"So, when did you two start sending sex pictures-" Atushi started.

"Stop eavesdropping."

Atushi shrugged. "It's no secret that Yuhi's desires are out of control, and no secret that you jump on him a lot."

True, but she doesn't know how she feels about everyone in their circle being privy to her intimate life with Yuhi-san. Atushi slides an envelope in front of her and Sumire paused. She didn't have to open it to know what was inside.

"Was it really that woman who hurt me?" Sumire asked.

Atushi nodded. "We sent a dna analysis to our experts, and they confirmed that the dna on the scene and the purse belongs to the eldest daughter of the Nagawa family."

Sumire sighed deeply. "I should have known. Maybe it's because I ruined her debut concert."

At those words Atushi shakes his head. "Over something petty? It's not like they are serious about the entertainment industry. They only joined to destroy you because they know how much it means to you."

"Mm that's true. But, they still have their pride." Sumire paused. "Pride seems to be very important in Nagawa family. No, I think most elite circles are like that. They have too much pride. So, when something fails they turn into ragging and vengeful beasts. I ruined that womans concert. Because they spent so much time on promotions, they ended up looking really bad when half their audience left to attend my concert."

Atushi chuckled. "That was rather brutal. I was outside taking a smoke break, when the flood of people across the street suddenly came over."

"No matter how many bad rumors there are about me, true skill always wins at the end of the day. What they witnessed wasn't even me at my best."

andasnovel.com She was still holding herself back during that concert. But with the one that is upcoming? She won't be holding back anymore.

Atushi reached over and patted her hair. "Don't work so hard. But, I am looking forward to hearing your new song. You'll make us all proud."

Sumire laughed. "I hope you and the others don't cause too much trouble in the front row."

Atushi groaned. "If you know how rowdy they are, you shouldn't have gotten us all front row tickets."

But, she wants to see them close. The people she sees as family. Atushi must have understood since he sighed again but continued to pat her hair and wish her good luck. 𝑏𝘦𝘥𝑛𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝑐𝘰𝑚
