Chapter 270: Why do I still like her?

"Welcome back master."

When Yuhi heard those words he looked over to confirm that Nagawa Sano was indeed there.

Sano deeply sighed and walked over to the railing. He replaced his coat with his doctor's coat. "Did something happen?"

"Ah, I was just wondering if I could get my blood checked."

"I'll do it here."

Yuhi does not say anything but silently observed their interaction until Razel spoke up.

"Terashima-san come with me. There is something I would like to check with you."

Yuhi was reluctant to leave them alone and was about to voice out his complaint when he felt Sumire's lips on his.

"Remember to behave." 

Damn if she says it like this, he can't refuse her. Yuhi squeezed her hands. "If you don't hurry you're going to miss out on some great pie."

Quite some time has passed since they went on their abnormal night outings due to the events lately. With her getting close to her due date Sumire slept a lot more, and she was mainly sick so Yuhi did not take her out. 

Even after she gave birth, he made sure she was at home just in case she had a relapse. Yuhi's gaze landed on the man called Razel who closed the door behind them. 

What does this person want with him?

__

After Terashima left Sano turned his attention back to her. He looked away when they were saying their goodbyes because he did not want to see them acting all sweet with each other. But now he watched as Sumire fidget with the hem of her clothes nervously.

Sano sighed. "Don't freak out."

"Uh, I haven't seen you in awhile."

"That's my line, you're quite busy these days. Do you still have time for your child?"

"I do..." Sumire trailed off.

He walked over and backed her against the wall and cupped her cheeks. "Quit looking away from me, it's annoying."

"Sano..."

"Don't apologize for what happened. Those guys are overprotective of you." He honestly felt frustrated about the entire situation. Those guys are merely a simple idol group and yet he could not stand up to them.

"Did it hurt?" She questioned him.

"Well, I've been punched before."

Sumire extended her hand out hesitantly. "I'm sorry...."

"If you want to make up to me, have dinner with me tomorrow night."

"Dinner?"

"Yeah."

"Where?" 

"My place."

Sumire bit her lip but nodded. "Alright, tomorrow."

Sano blinked when he heard her reply. Huh? Normally she would evade him. "Are you agreeing that quickly?"

She laughed awkwardly. "Well, you know I feel bad for avoiding you."

If she felt bad then should she not have come to him sooner? Sano shook his head. He needs to stop getting so worked up when it comes to her.

"You knew Razel?"

"Mmm, he helped me out before."

Well, that isn't a surprise. Sano however focused on other things such as the girl's lips, there was something different about it today. Lips that are suited for kissing, that was one of the first things he noticed when he met her. But even then he did not get this 

"San?"

Sano's eyes widened when he heard the nickname. "Are you alright? You're sweating a lot."

"Maybe a fever?"

"Sumire..."

"I'll make you something to eat. Why don't you lay down and rest?"

'Nagawa Sano, you must silence Ibuki Sumire at all costs. That is now your job.'

Sano grabbed her arm. "How did you get this injury?"

"Ah, some guys were hitting on me when I was shopping."

Despite those casual words Sano got a bad feeling. 'Could it be they are already making a move?' It looked like Sumire fought with them. Even if it is her she would not fight with normal individuals. So she must have judged that those people were dangerous. 

"San?" Sumire said, puzzled.

He wants to kiss her but he probably shouldn't now. "Make me some food."

"Sure." Sumire went to the attached kitchen, while he walked over to the couch and laid down. 

He put his arms over his eye and sighed. Lately, he keeps running around helping those people with their work so he is even more exhausted than normal. "What's with the nickname?"

"Hmm, well I decided that maybe you're not so bad anymore."

"...you decided?"

Sumire nodded. "You saved that child."

She must have heard what happened in the operating room. "Hah...." 

To think he tried so hard to get her attention, to show her he has changed but this is all he had to do? 

"You know, I thought this before but you're a strange woman."

"Hmmm, well I won't deny the strange part. My personality was never good, to begin with."

"Why did you accept my confession?"

Sumire sighed. "Well, it's not like I had a reason to refuse. At the time I needed all the connections I could get."

"But you knew my little brother right?"

"That guy is too innocent and naive. I figured I wouldn't be able to use him well."

'So she was planning on using me too.' That should make him feel better and yet somehow something is wrong here. If she intended to use him then how come she made that expression when he cheated on her? 

"Why..do I still like you?" Sano muttered.

"That's also my question, it makes no sense for you to still like me. You only used me for your own benefit but even if you fell for me halfway you still disposed of me in the end."

When he hears it coming from her own lips, it makes him feel bad. "You still stayed with me after you caught me cheating on you."

"Since there was something I wanted from you." Sumire trailed off and sighed. "San, even if you ask these questions now it will have no meaning."

"Does everything have to have a meaning for you?"

"In this illogical world only one thing made sense to me and that was Yuhi's singing. The reason I went out for you was because I knew you would be able to help him."

"To hide his delinquent status?"

If that's all she wanted then she could do so herself. 

"No, to hide his crimes."

So she knows about that and yet she remains with him? On the day he saw her again and saw how close she was with Terashima, he immediately did a background check. The rumors from the entertainment industry aside he learned something else. 

That man is not as simple as he thought. Sano recalled that serious warning from Terashima after he discovered what he had been doing to Sumire. Those eyes that look like a predator about to devour its prey. It seemed like the results of that investigation was not wrong. He initially thought it was a mistake but now it seems he was correct.

"Yet you still like him?"

Sumire laughed. "It's not like Im any better."

That reasoning is vague, there is something more to all of this. Sano was about to ask a follow up question when the doors opened revealing Razel. He raised his eyebrow. This guy could have distracted Terashima for a bit longer.
