Chapter 108 - The Courage To Betray Me Do You Have It?



His sweat fell when he heard how casually she said that. Well, he supposes it is possible for her. "What did you think when you first found out he was cheating on you?"

"I should kill him myself but then I realized that by doing that I would be showing him how much I loved him. So instead of that, I tried to kill the woman he was seeing so he would remember me."

Yuhi shuddered when he saw the dangerous look on her eyes. She is scarier than he thought.

"So what would you do if I cheated on you?"

If she reacted this way towards Sano then Yuhi is interested how she would react towards him.

"Before I answer that question you sure do know a lot of girls."

"Is that what it seems like?"

Despite the Shakespeare reference though, she doesn\'t budge. Instead he watched as a complicated look appeared on her face.

"Come to think of it, someone in the tokyo holy knights branch asked me to introduce you to them."

"Oh."

He noticed that the stares when he was with Sumire increased. He thought the stares came from the staff and the girls fan\'s - but it turns out it was none of those.

"So I told her that you were actually an immoral person with a bankrupt personality. I instated that you were a pervert with strange fetishes too. I also said I wasn\'t going to be held responsible for whatever happens after I introduce you to her."

His sweat dropped seeing the expression on the girl\'s face. Or rather, his eyes twitched annoyed. "Wow, I\'m hurt. Do you think I am that much of a jerk?"

Sumire sighed. "Whether or not that is the truth, I got the results I wanted since she backed off after that."

"Even though you know the real reason..."he murmurs. Well he supposed it\'s fine. He did not need a random girl confessing to him right now.

Come to think of it, since she came here hasn\'t had to worry about that problem. Though at first he still received the same stares from those girls. Once Sumire came along and they saw him dot on her, they seemed to have stopped.

"A person seriously dating me should have a somewhat twisted personality".

"Oh, this might be true. I wouldn\'t call myself normal."

"In reality there is nothing wrong with me introducing you. Because nothing good will come out of the introduction. Don\'t you think it\'s the same as nipping a bad bud before it grows?".

"Really? Who knows. Something unbelievable could happen." Yuhi teased. It was a joke of course.

If Sumire introduced him to somebody else, that would genuinely hurt his feelings. He likes the idea that she told these girls to back away.

"That could never happen."

"You think so?"

Sumire nodded. "I do. After loving you Yuhi, I discovered what kind of girl your type is. The only person you can go out with is someone like me. Somebody abnormal and difficult to handle. Likewise the same goes for me, the only person I can date is someone who\'s somewhat similar to you."

At that comment, he felt a tint of red appear on his cheeks. His cheeks grew hot at her words. This girl is far too bold. How can she say such words

"At least for me, aside from someone with your qualities. I won\'t consider anyone else", she turned to face him. "Do you have the courage to betray me, Yuhi?"

The courage to betray her? Like he could do something like that. Yuhi cupped her cheeks. "For the past five years, nobody has caught my interest."

"Is that so? But I thought you had many beautiful women around you."

"None of them interested me."

"So are you saying you don\'t have the courage to betray me?"

Yuhi wore an indifferent looking expression, "And what if I do?".

Sumire pointed to something in her hands. It was a mini blade, "Look at this knife. I keep this with me at all times for self defence. It is very sharp and good at cutting things into small pieces."

"Uh, that no longer sounds like a joke." Yuhi said as he watched her carefully scrape the blade against the edge of the bed. Where on earth did she get that from?

Here he was trying to catch her of guard. But she really is good - no her personalities just bad. He wonders what her fans would think if they know that the person they admire is actually like this. Then again whenever she\'s on stage or acting out a role, she transforms in to a completely different person. They probably wouldn\'t mind either way.

"Even if you have a change of heart and like other girls, I wouldn\'t care. Because there are so many more girls out there that are more attractive than me."

Is she sulking? Geez. Yuhi moved the knife away from her hands and placed it on the bed side table. The slightest movement hurt and he winced in pain when he placed the knife down. Sumire blinked. "Should I stop teasing you?"

"My dear." Yuhi questioned. "Why were you even teasing me?"

"I thought it would lighten the atmosphere a bit. You looked too serious."

"Hmmm I see."

Sumire brushed her lips against his. "Anyhow I think I would like to ask you something else Yuhi-san."

"What is it?"

Or rather what is she doing? Does she want to kiss again or is she flirting with him? Yuhi noticed that she was drawing circles with her hands on his chest. He only wore the thin hospital garment, so it felt like she was touching him with no clothing on. Yuhi frantically shook his head. Quit it with the strange thoughts. No wonder Sumire said that thing about him being a pervert.

"Do you like french cuisine?"

Yuhi blinked when he heard her words. Now that was unexpected. "I do, why?"

"Okay, good."

Is she planning on cooking him something? "Make it light, I am still a patient."

"I know. But I figured I would make you some lovey-dovey handmade bentos and get on your good side."

"You\'re already on my good side." Yuhi kissed her forehead, eyelids, nose, and then lips lightly. "I am glad to see you in high spirits again. But I think you should go back to sleep. You haven\'t been sleeping well have you?"

He noticed the dark circles in her eyes earlier. "Get some rest." Yuhi pulled the blank onto her shoulders.

"Then I shall."
