Chapter 1208 No Confession
"……"
It was quiet.
After his voice fell into this room, everyone seemed to be in shock until the sound of chock tears were heard.
Sakura's mother cried and looked away at this moment while closing her mouth with her hands. Her feelings were mixed with both happiness and worry. She was happy that her daughter had found someone that could stay by her side during her hardest time, but at the same time, she was worried about Haru since she knew her daughter could only live for another year. She knew that this relationship would not end well, but she couldn't stop them.
Sakura's father had a conflicted expression. If Haru didn't know about Sakura's condition then he would kick him out without hesitation, but it was different when Haru knew about Sakura's condition, but even so, Haru still decided to date her daughter accompanying her to the end since it needed a lot of determination to do so.
Haru looked at Sakura's father since he knew the decision was in Sakura's father's hand. He looked at Sakura's father calmly and could feel the hand which he held tighten, then he turned, seeing Sakura who was crying by his side.
"Don't cry, alright?"
"Hm…" Sakura nodded, but she kept crying.
Haru wanted to wipe the tears from her eyes, but Sakura's father's voice stopped him.
"Your name is Kasugano-kun, right?"
Haru was wearing disguise at that moment so both of Sakura's parents didn't know his identity and even if he was famous, there were a lot of people in this world who didn't know about his name too after all, but he needed to watch out first.
"Yes, father." Haru joked.
"…"
Sakura's father twitched his lips, but ignored Haru's remark. He stared at him and asked, "You know about Sakura's condition?"
"Yes."
"Then you still want to be with her?"
"Yes."
There was no hesitation in his words when he answered Sakura's father's questions.
"Why?"
"I want to be with her, that's all," Haru said.
His answer was simple, but it was powerful.
There was only one reason when someone wanted to be someone, and that was because that person wanted to be with their loved one.
That was his answer.
"You're ready for that time?"
"Yes."
Sakura's father sighed and bowed his head. "Then, I'll leave her to you."
"Thank you."
Haru didn't expect that their conversation would be over so quickly and it might be because they could feel his determination with their daughter even if he knew about her condition and when they saw their daughter's expression, they knew that she also wanted to be with him.
"Right, aunt, uncle…"
"You're not calling us, mother, or father?" Sakura's mother asked with a smile.
"……We can do that in the future," Haru said, however, it seemed their expression became sad when they heard his words since Sakura didn't have a future, or rather her future was extremely short, and it was also the reason why he needed to tell them about this matter.
"There's another thing which I want to tell both of you," Haru said.
"What is that?"
"I want you to give me permission to take Sakura on treatment," Haru said.
"Treatment?"
Haru nodded and told them about Sumire along with Sakura's chance to be cured from her disease.
Listening to Haru's words, of course, Sakura's parents became excited, but also worried.
It was a normal thing, when they were already in despair, they would do anything to grab a chance to escape from this despair.
Sakura's parents were sad about Sakura's illness, but there was nothing that they could do then they became numb, waiting for their daughter's remaining time to end without being able to do anything.
So when Haru told them that there was a chance for Sakura to stay alive, they were very happy about it and didn't hesitate to give him permission, however, they were wondering whether this treatment could save Sakura or not.
"So where is this treatment?"
"It's in Chiyoda…" Haru told them about the location of the hospital and when he would also take Sakura to the hospital.
They nodded and said that they would accompany them later.
Though, it might be difficult for Sakura's father since he was very busy with his work, however, Sakura's mother would come.
Haru didn't seem that surprised when he heard Sakura's father was busy since he knew how workaholic people in this country were.
Thinking about Seri, he thought about taking her on a trip so that woman could take a break from her work.
Then they ended their conversation, and had dinner together until 8 in the evening.
Haru felt that it was time to go back since it was quite rude to stay too long in this house.
"I'll send you back," Sakura said.
Sakura's parents nodded and let Sakura send Haru back since they had known their relationship was.
Haru went out and Sakura also walked beside him. When he was right outside Sakura's house, he said, "Then I've got to go back now. I'll pick you up in a few days."
"Umm…" Sakura smiled and said, "Thank you." She recalled what he had done for her and had made up her mind in her heart, but she wouldn't utter it outloud since there was a chance for the treatment to be a failure so she wanted to keep it for herself first.
However, Sakura couldn't contain the emotion on her heart and kissed his lips without hesitation.
It was their first kiss, but it felt much more wonderful than what she had thought. Her chest was tight, but strangely comfortable, especially when she was hugged by him.
They stayed in this position for a few minutes, until they parted their lips.
Sakura wanted to say that she loved him, but she was afraid until she was hugged again and her head was patted.
"You can say that again when your treatment is done," Haru said.
"Hmm…" Sakura snuggled into his chest and said, "If my treatment is done, then you can propose to me again. In that time, I might consider accepting your marriage proposal."
Haru was speechless and asked, "Why do you sound so haughty at this moment?"
"Of course!" Sakura seemed to be annoyed and said, "If I accept your proposal then I'll become your harem member, right? Then I need to prepare my heart! What if I'm being bullied by you and your harem?"
"You don't need to think too much as long as we enter bed together, then everything is solved," Haru said.
Sakura blushed and hit Haru's chest. "You pervert!" She hit him several times, but it didn't hurt. She felt tired and leaned on his chest.
"Hug me."
Haru hugged Sakura.
"I…"
Sakura stopped then shook her head. She looked at him and said, "Thank you."
"No problem," Haru said while patting Sakura's head then asked, "Can I kiss you again before I go back?"
Sakura blushed and nodded.
Haru didn't hesitate and kissed her for the second time. He knew that their relationship had been established, but she needed to finish her treatment first.
He parted his lips and said, "See you."
"See you." Sakura smiled.
Haru entered his car and drove away since he had a feeling if he stayed any longer then he might not bear to part with Sakura.
Looking at the back of his car which slowly disappeared, Sakura couldn't handle it anymore. Holding her cheeks with both of her hands, she jumped around in happiness and couldn't help but shout, "Haru, I love you!"
Sakura wanted to utter those words a lot of times, but at the same time, she was afraid to make him sad so she decided to gamble herself, waiting until she finished her treatment before she confessed to him again, but she might not be able to wait until then since her feeling for him grew even stronger now…
