After rebirth, I confessed to the losing heroine - Chapter 112- Arrangement
A simple self-kill it took to throw Hiroto and Miyuki back in time.
He was currently in her room, softly patting her head and allowing her to take some much-needed rest.
The world was brought back to where Hiroto could once again control things.
Having Yuichi under his mercy for so long has proved to be very beneficial. It was proved that the Goddess wasn’t omniscient and could not interfere with this world however she desired. And thanks to that, Hiroto now knew what he had to do.
“…Hiro-kun…”
“Yes…I am here.” This wasn’t the first time she mumbled in her sleep, and he had to sweetly whisper to her to assure her about his presence.
She was traumatized.
*Bzz*
Hiroto picked up his phone and looked at the message. It was from Yuichi.
Yu: [Hey man…are you fine?]
Hiroto was expecting a text relating to the matter with Hanabi; after all, the deadline was nearing. However, this abrupt text surprised Hiroto.
Thinking for a moment, Hiroto responded,
Me: [What can happen to me? I am good.]
Yu: [No, I just had a feeling that…well, let it be. Are we meeting today?]
There can be no intuition that just today, when Hiroto was sent back to his previous world, Yuichi felt that something was wrong. Or maybe this, indeed, was just his instincts?
Hiroto can’t be sure about anything if it’s related to Yuichi now.
After a moment of contemplation, Hiroto responded,
Me: [I will contact you if I get the time.]
Yu: [Kay.]
As the chat ended, Hiroto decided to get a quick pee break. He had been holding it for three hours now.
Slowly lifting Miyuki’s head, he showed his quick hand work and replaced his lap with a thick and comfortable pillow.
Miyuki frowned in the sleep, that’s why Hiroto hurried.
Instantly he went inside the toilet and nearly ripped his zip to take his thing out before releasing everything he had been storing.
He ran back into the room, taking several tissues just as he was about to exit the bathroom.
But even after his haste, he failed.
Miyuki sat there on the bed with bushy hair and red eyes. Tears welled up as she stared at Hiroto in complaint.
“Why did you leave me again?”
Hiroto strolled toward the bed after dumping the tissues in the dustbin. He underestimated his Hime’s senses. She can discover his absence even in deep sleep.
Sitting on the bed, he held her arm and invited her to sit on his lap.
She crossed her legs around his waist and wrapped her thin arms around his back with all her strength. That small face looked even smaller while she kept it pressed against his chest.
She was just reluctant to let go. She couldn’t endure any more separation.
“Miyuki, I have hurt you a lot, no?”
She rubbed her face up and down.
“What can I do to gain your forgiveness? And get your promise that you won’t cry anymore?”
Miyuki’s heart trembled, and her hold on him loosened slightly, hearing such a helpless voice from the strongest man she knew. Someone who always has a way to get out of any situation to sound so lost helped Miyuki to sober up a little.
She looked up at him and enjoyed the sensation which brought his thin fingers, as Hiroto softly caressed her face.
With her eyes closed, her dry lips moved, “Just…stay with me. Always.”
She pressed her head against his chest again, before murmuring, “It was a nightmare without you…a world without Hiro-kun seemed like hell to me. I was wandering around…searching for you everywhere…but-but…”
“You just promised me that you won’t cry if I am here, right?” Hiroto reminded her as he softly rubbed her eyes to not hurt them any more. She has already cried a lot after returning to the past.
“Hiro-kun…I am scared. Why can’t we be normal people who can live our lives? Why does someone else get to decide what we deserve and what we do not? I hate it…I hate it…”
Hiroto allowed a heavy breath to escape his mouth hearing her plead. He also desired nothing but a normal life with Miyuki. He had already suffered a lot in his previous life… had always been alone. And now, when he has his lover, their families…Hiroto still has to live under the constant fear of getting abducted and thrown back into that hell hole again.
Life is so unfair.

*Knock* *Knock*
Shirogane Souma blinked in surprise, hearing a knock on his door as he glanced at his wife. Yuki shook her head signifying that she didn’t ask for anything from the servants.
Souma asked with a frown, “Who is there?”
“It’s me, Father. Hiroto.”
The couple was startled to hear Hiroto’s voice as Souma instantly left his seat and approached the door. Yuki also got up, and after putting on her cardigan, she approached the door.
Once Souma opened the door, he was startled.
“M-Miyuki?!” Souma exclaimed, seeing his daughter currently on Hiroto’s back and her eyes were closed.
However, soon Hiroto assured them, “She is fine and awake. Open your eyes, Miyuki. You are scaring them.”
Miyuki lazily opened her eyes while grumbling and looked at her flabbergasted parents.
“F-First come in.” Yuki was beyond shocked seeing her daughter in such a state and getting piggybacked by Hiroto, but she decided to first invite them inside rather than having an on-door conversation.
Hiroto walked in and sat down on the bed, but Miyuki didn’t separate from him and acquired his lap.
“Sweetie, you should sit properly.” Yuki urged as she patted Miyuki’s shoulder. But Miyuki looked away and didn’t say anything nor showed any sign of leaving her throne.
“Mother, please let her be,” Hiroto asked Yuki with an embarrassed smile.
Yuki nodded, albeit confused before she sat beside her husband across the two children.
“Hiro-kun, what happened to her? Please tell me if I need to call the doctor.”
“No father; doctor won’t be required. She just had a very bad nightmare, and when she woke up, she called me and told me to come over.” He heaved a sigh to add a little intensity to the story before adding, “When I came over, she was weeping for a long time while holding me. I asked her what happened but all she said was that she doesn’t want to get separated from me.”
Yuki blinked in surprise. This was the first time Miyuki had acted so spoiled and immature.
However, the frown on Souma’s head didn’t disappear as he pressed, “There is something more to it, isn’t it, Hiroto?”
Hiroto was left speechless momentarily, and that was enough for a response from the patriarch.
However, Souma didn’t ask anything further and rather focused on his daughter.
Getting up, he softly moved her bangs away and gazed at her red eyes with concern and grief.
Cupping her cheek fondly, he asked, “What happened to my little girl?”
The tone he adopted was something Hiroto had heard for the first time.
Miyuki looked at her father with a pitiful expression before uttering,
“Dad…I want to live together with Hiro-kun from this very moment.”
Souma took a deep breath.
Hiroto expected the man to ask Hiroto for a one-on-one talk since living together after engagement was not common. And the girl in question here was the daughter of a renowned businessman.
However, thankfully, Souma didn’t say a single word in against to her request rather he suggested, “I will have someone arrange a house for you two. You can shift there now.”

A/N:- This same behavior of Souma caused so much mayhem canonically. Miyuki was forgiven for everything. Well, considering how adorable she is, it’s understandable.
