Eternal Melody

But she has already taken a step forward to this world. She will always hold that person dear no matter what happens. Sumire understood that even if she were to accept Yuhi completely, a part of her heart would always belong to Tsueno Mamoru.

Right now the most important person to her can only be one person. No, two individuals. In the end that may make her a selfish person. For sure that's what it seems like. But indeed for her that truly is something she can't deny. Even though she cannot remember that person's face and although whenever she tries it becomes blurry.

Although she can't remember his voice long enough to trace it anymore, she feels like he is always there giving her support. No matter where we are, we are always connected under the same sky.

That is something she would remind herself. Perhaps when she said those words then she truly didn't understand the meaning behind them then. For certain the majority of things are illogical and even when one discovers the meaning, it does not mean one understands them.

That is why there will be those who will still suffer. There will be those who still end up in pain whether or not it's from broken relationships, or hardships faced under other circumstances. There maybe other factors that she has failed to mention, but there is no doubt people will suffer.

'To you, life is just something you acted out and ended, all according to someone else's script. That's why you always quote tragedies. However I think that is wrong Sumire. We humans shouldn't allow a script to dictate our lives. Even if there is a script, what is the chance of us following it completely? The unexpected happens and things change.'

After being lectured like that, Sumire did not fight back and she instead asked him what to do. Sumire could not forget the serious expression on his face when he said his reply.

'I won't live my life by another person's script. I will write own ending'

It was only when those words were said to her that she realised it. That this entire time she may have been treating ' life' in the same manner as her script. Since certainly for sure she had never regarded life in a normal regard then most people. But when Yuhi noticed it, she realized a few more things.

Ah that person really is amazing, indeed she thought so from the very beginning. If it is this person then he will be able to achieve many many more greater things in life. She always got that feeling from him.

If it is Terashima Yuhi, he will make the impossible a reality.

…

Two hours later

Her thoughts broke off when she realized she was now back to back with Yuhi. No matter how many people they took down, more of them seemed to arrive. The two of them are strong yes, but after fighting for a good two hours, even for them this is pushing it. Sumire felt her breathing become unsteady and sweat clung to her skin. Her legs felt wobbly and she knew she was losing a lot of blood due to the head injury she sustained earlier.

The only way for these people to get to her is using underhanded means. One of them went through the trouble of grabbing somebody from one of the classrooms and used them as a shield. Thus it lead to her head injury.

Yuhi squeezed her hands. "Can you hold it a bit more? There is only a little bit left."

She feels like she is going to pass out any minute but if Yuhi is beside her then she feels like everything will be okay.

Time passes by whether or not we like it or not, and even if things are so hectic and it seems like one can't keep up.

It will never stop.

Because there is something that will always bind them together.

With time the nostalgia for the usual days increase.

And before one realizes, they become memories engraved in ones heart.

Sumire slumped to the ground the moment she knocked out the last person. She felt utterly drained and exhausted. Quite some time has passed since she last fought so many people like this. It seems like she has to work on her stamina again. If it were the past her then that amount of people would not be a problem.

"You okay?" Yuhi asked.

She shook her head. "I cant move my legs."

Yuhi nodded. "I see, then hop on."

Sumire blinked when she saw that he had pointed to his back.Uhh, what on earth is he suggesting? "A piggy back?"

"Mmm, hurry up before I change my mind."

Despite the weak feeling in her legs, she managed to muster some strength to climb onto Yuhis back. Sumire looked around for Shin and could not find him anywhere. "Did he leave?"

"Yeah." Yuhi nodded. "He left when it was getting bad. I mean he could have pitched in if he wanted to but he is still a teacher at the end of the day."

"I see."

For the next few minutes there was nothing but silence. Sumire did not know what to say to him. She felt very strange. Fighting alongside Yuhi like this, when was the last time? Back then they used to have each others backs as partners. But she wondered when did that stop? When did things become awkward? Even long before he confessed to her, something already changed.

But she recalled the conversation they had not too long ago. Did Yuhi not say so himself? He said that he missed her and that he wanted for things to return to normal too. However were those words not a lie? If he truly wanted that, then he would not have asked her out. To return to how they were in the past with no knowledge of these romantic feelings.

It is already far too late for them to do that, but that was fine. Instead of returning to how things were before, she would rather focus on the future.

She would rather focus on their future as a couple.
