Eternal Melody

This is not the first time where Yuhi's cooking tasted familiar. But where could she have eaten it before? Her thoughts broke off when Yuhi pulled out a lighter and cigarettes. She raised her eyebrow, and he paused.

"Can I?" He asked.

Sumire sighs. "Go ahead."

He placed a sloppy kiss on her cheek and mumbled the words I love you before he started to smoke.

She stole a glance at Hino, who was on the phone to somebody. A frustrated look appears on his face.

She vaguely hears the words Sano and comes here, when she felt Yuhi grab her hands. He grinned. "I have an idea, why don't I feed you?"

"I'm not a child."

She won't tell him the real reason why she is acting stubborn. A few minutes ago, she decided to maintain some distance around Yuhi. It does neither of them any good behaving like this all the time.

Yuhi raised his eyebrows at her reluctance. "You're right, you're not a child. I wouldn't date a child."

Sumire sends him a harsh glare. What is he doing using her own logic against her? This isn't fair at all. Then again, Terashima Yuhi seems to be able to mess up her normal logic. She took a deep breath and continued eating with her other hand, which Yuhi was not holding hostage.

The curry tasted amazing even though it had gotten slightly cold already.

"This is very good."

"No, you're simply hungry." Yuhi laughs. "Slow down, yeah?"

She dumbly nodded but realized that she was eating even more quickly after he said that to her. Maybe she ought to stop skipping meals. When did food taste this good? Normally whenever she ate anything, it would taste bland to her. She would eat it, but not only would it not make her full, but she usually felt sick afterward.

Yuhi bent down and ate from her hand, and she dropped the spoon.

"Mmm, good."

What is with this person? Why is he so shameless? Then again it is partly her fault for allowing him to get away with it. Her gaze fell on the surroundings and she looks around the car.

This is a sports car, isn't it? It must have been expensive.

"Is that a drink dispenser?" Sumire pointed to the machine attached to the side.

Yuhi nodded. "Mm, you can play around if you want."

She didn't know why she was getting so excited. But this was her first time in a sports car so she could not help but be curious.

"Yuhi, I wondered why you took this car. Could it be you were trying to impress Sumire?"

Yuhi sighs. "Quit exposing me before my real plan occurs."

Sumire tilted her head innocently, and she looks over at him. "Plan?"

His lips curve to a smile, and he kisses her forehead softly. "Plan." He repeated slyly.

A plan, huh? She could more or less guess what it was. Sumire kept looking at the controls and noticed a way to recline the seats. She thought back to what they were doing right before Hino came. His plans were probably that right? What else would they do in a car like this with reclining streets?

It seems she won't be able to control this huge lion forever, not that she expected to. Her desires and thoughts are going out of control; she needs to get a grip on reality.

The thing with Ibuki Sumire was she understood him far better than he did himself.

When he offered to go along with her to the Holy Knights headquarters in Tokyo, she didn't refute him. But she instructed that he takes caution.

Yuhi recalls the looks they both received on the way in.

It seems like the people in this group still don't like Sumire. They were curious about him, but their gazes were hostile toward Sumire.

The main reason why they were here today was because Atushi discovered something. Sumire suggested using this place rather than the bar, due to the security.

"Anyhow, the reason I called out to all of you today is obvious! Do you know of the group 'Shadow'? It's under D entertainment records."

… 'Shadow'

'Yuhi'

'….What do you mean by this?'

'That's because you were always neglecting me.'

'Ha, what are you talking about? Didn't I say that when we reached the number one in the U.S. and then us two will…. You…you betrayed me…'

'No, that's not it. I still love you!'

Memories and voices from the past flowed into his head. Yuhi felt his breathing become unsteady.

"Isn't that…." Jae hesitated before saying. "Your old group?

Sumire blinked. ". .Uh, I didn't know that…. Although this may be awkward. But I have something to talk about regarding them?" Despite his current mixed feelings, Yuhi gave a 'nod' for her to proceed. He doesn't want to seem weak; it's fine. They can mention it because it's already all over.

"The thing about SHADOW is their immunity level is incredibly high. It's not unusual to have high immunity since there have always been people out there with high levels. But all of those should have vanished because of that woman. So I did a bit of research and found a certain group in new York city that remained untouched by her songs. That group, though, was quite unusual…"

"Unusual? How so?"

She bites her lip. "They were part of a Yakuza underground drug association. The drugs they handed out classified A.T. The 'A' stands for angel funnily enough, so it seems like a harmless medication when given out to people. But I noticed a trend in the pattern of those people whom it's sold too. Their immunity levels seem to increase too, that's fine. Having immunity isn't wrong, but …"

"It reversed on them." She suddenly changed her tone.

Sumire looked calm, almost too calm if you ask him. Did she know?

"Yes. As you know, the reverse effects are quite bad, and even now, all these people remain unconscious in a hospital overseas. "

"Are they under suspicion?" Jae asked.

"Unfortunately, there is no concrete evidence. But considering their relation to the group, it would be stranger for them not to know anything. There is a particular member that we must pay attention too. " She tapped the screen of her PDA and revealed a mab with spiky black hair, which he immediately recognized.

"He appears to have also taken the drug several times himself. .. This man Haguchi Morris now serves as the center of the group with that sentence itself you should understand what I'm saying. He is a survivor, despite the heavy drug usage overload he's a survivor."
