Eternal Melody Chapter 587: Don’t go anywhere

Chapter 587: Don't go anywhere
The big boss was angry at him. It was clear after that last stunt he pulled he would fall out of favour. But, Sano did not think the man would be so cruel to make him do such vicious jobs.
He told his family that he would be going on a business trip.
That was a lie, for the past two weeks he has been dealing with the underworld.
Lucifer is truly angry at him, this is what his aide Henry said. 'But rest assured sir Sano, there are many who have vouched on your behalf.
Even if he is displeased he will calm down after awhile.'
He eventually did on the fourteenth day, but it was far too late. Now he was bedridden with a terrible fever. He has lived his entire life as a precious young master. He has never had to experience such grievances or see such terrible sights.
He switched his phone on the other day and the rst thing he saw was news that made him want to hurl. 'An indirect romantic proposal.' It was all over the news Terashima's gift for
Sumire.
A gift for Sumire huh? He had one of course. But it was not anything new.
During the year they were dating he asked her if she liked rings, and Sumire told him that she disliked all the ring designs. So he took her to design a pair of rings.
It was a simple pair, but the girl truly liked it. He later on took her design to an experienced jeweler and crafted the rings again but better quality.
He wanted to put this ring on her nger and propose.
How happy would she have been? Or maybe she would have just scoed and thrown the ring away. Sano remembered how during that time they were in the middle of one of their ghts, he had not seen her in a few days.
In that time he tried to persuade his parents as much as he could regarding her but his eorts went to waste. If he can't persuade them, at the very least he wanted to persuade her. He knew that no matter how angry she was, she wouldf𝘳𝒆𝑒𝓌𝒆𝗯n𝗼𝘷ℯl. 𝑐𝚘𝘮 denitely want to spend Christmas together.
Sure enough, he received a message saying she would come over. He excitedly made preparations for their big day. He planned to apologize for everything and tell her that he was serious about her. But that messenger showed up that day, and destroyed everything. 'Break up with her.'
It was just four words, but it was from a sponsor. The rst person who said they would sponsor and help out his family. He later on learned that this sponsor was Lucifer. So even before they met ocially, he was already planning on helping his family.
At rst, he did not understand why a man like this would help them out. But it did not take him long to realize why.
Lucifer's obsession towards Sumire is something he does not understand very well. But what use is there trying to understand that crazy man?
Sano exhaled deeply as he placed his hand on his forehead. He only stood up briey to fetch some water from the kitchen but it seems like the state of his body is bad after all. Is it bad that he is seeing double? No good, he ought to go to the couch- he hears the sound of the door opening. "San?" He hears a soft voice call his name, no a nickname.
There is only one person who would use that nickname, only one. But how could that be? Sano knew that the girl was playing games with him, she does not want to be near him at all.
But she allows him to get close to her, just when he thinks he has her she slips away again.
Is it time for her to appear before him again? It should be, he hasnt seen her in a month. "Sumire, is that really you?"
A deep sigh escaped the girl's lips and she walked over. The moment the girl got close he pulled her into his arms. "I missed you." "Mm, happy new year." Sumire trailed o. "You're sick?" "Yeah, since Christmas." "Since christ-" Sumire frantically shook her head. "Lay back down."
Sano reluctantly made his way over to the couch despite his blurred vision. "Have you gone to the hospital?" "No." "San-" "Will you take care of me?"
Actually, if it got any worse, he was planning on at least calling one of the doctors he trusted over. If he goes to the hospital, it would attract far too much attention. Moreover, there is a high chance his family would hear it and cause a fuss.
Sumire looked troubled but nodded. "Okay." "Hino's been looking for you." "What about you?" "Eh?" "You didn't miss me at all?" It was a stupid question, he knew that she didn't.
She must have spent the past few weeks with Terashima, she spent the holidays with him. "Just a little. But then I remembered how you dumped me on Christmas."
Sano inched when he heard her cold tone. "I'm sorry." "Even if you apologize now nothing will change." "That day, I intended to propose to you." "Huh?"
He wanted to propose, he even bought the ring. If that messenger didn't appear, he would have gone through with it. Now that he thought about that messenger guy, he was a weird person. He even suggested how to break up with
Sumire. 'I followed his instructions, and I regretted it.' He didn't think that she would get that hurt. It was the rst time for him seeing that type of expression on her face. "Don't go anywhere. Let me look at you for a while." "You're so helpless."
Sano however pulled the girl onto the bed with him and held her tightly in his arms. "Hold on--" "I won't do anything else."
Despite her reluctance, she didn't budge. She felt tense in his arms and he tried to soothe her by kissing her forehead. "San," Sumire mumbled. "You know we--" 'We aren't dating.' Sano nished the sentence in his head. He no longer wants to hear such things escape her lips. Even if that is the truth, right now the truth does not matter to him. What is important is the present moment. Right now it is just the two of them here, with no interference.
He can hold her in his arms like he used to. *Unedited*
