When the person I used to admire, turned out to be a Yandere! - Chapter 24- As I thought...

“But Emiko-san…I don’t think it would be good for you to come. I mean the whole operation would take hours or maybe the whole day tomorrow. Taking aside the fact that you must have a lot of work, there’s a chance that someone would surely recognize you even through the disguise. ”

It was after dinner that I insisted on washing dishes with her. She was reluctant but I somehow pursued the stubborn Emiko-san by letting her know how I didn’t want to lay uselessly while she did all the chorus.

Emiko-san understood what I was trying to say in her own language and allowed me to wipe off the washed dishes. She has a dishwasher but Emiko-san doesn’t use it often for some reason.

I didn’t ask her or it would have seemed that I didn’t want to work at all. Considering how seriously she takes my words, I have become a little conscious of what I say.

“You don’t need to worry about it Haru-kun…I have sorted everything out about the identity situation in the hospital and if you are worried about my work then I have taken leave for this week. I can extend it if you want. ”

Completely disregarding the fact that she casually took leave when I surely could say how busy her schedule must be, there was something that concerned me.

“Emiko-san…if you don’t mind me asking…how did you sort out the hospital issue?”

I had a bad feeling about it. I mean it would sound absurd but if it’s Emiko-san I wouldn’t be too shocked to hear that she has booked herself a room in the hospital or something, and that was impossible for a normal person to do.

However, hearing her following words, it was proven that I highly underestimated this woman.

“Ahaha… I just bought the hospital and shifted all the patients from the third floor to other hospitals today…plain and simple… ” My hands, which were holding the plate halted as Emiko-san expressed those words while dryly chuckling and avoiding my gaze.

But soon she halted and timidly closing her eyes she turned toward me and clasped her hand in prayer.

“Please don’t be mad at me, Haru-kun. I just wanted to be with you at your vulnerable time and allowing those many people to cross by would surely have created trouble for the patients.”

Truth be told, I wasn’t mad at her rather shocked to hear she could go to such lengths just to be by my side.

I held back a sigh at how adorably she could plead, before placing the plate on the station and grabbing her adjoined palms, making Emiko-san separate her eyelashes and look at me with a surprised gaze.

Wait….did she really think that I would get angry at her?

Well, a part of me indeed found her actions to be wrong just in case some patient might have gotten into danger while being switched to another hospital. But it didn’t mean I was going to scold her about it.

“Emiko-san…I can’t tell you how grateful I am to be favored by you like this but please refrain from going overboard and if possible, don’t postpone any plan because of me. ”

She looked at me silently for a good while and as for me, then I could fall in a daze while watching her emerald eyes any time of the day.

After a short while, Emiko-san affirmed to me that her work wouldn’t be hindered by this break since she never generally takes leave.

I let go of her hand which I have been holding without even realizing and scolded myself for being so fast forward. I mean, Emiko-san was wearing gloves(sadly) but still…

***

After washing dishes and cleaning the kitchen, Emiko-san went to take a bath while I was chatting with my friends and catching up on what I missed.

It took almost an hour before a flowery scent wafted pleasantly in the room, drawing my gaze away from the phone and looking at Emiko-san slightly wide-eyed.

Her hair was still slightly wet which she allowed to fall over her shoulder. Some thin strands sticking to her head provided a sensual scenery for my hormonal vision. The short pajama she wore only reached her upper thighs, exposing a good amount of her skin. Her thin and delicate arms were on display as well for me to ogle like a creep.

I couldn’t help but allow my gaze to linger near her chest where she had undone the upper two buttons providing the view of her cleavage slightly. I know various people feel like dressing freely at home but still, Emiko-san was wearing too little in front of someone she had met just yesterday.

I gulped and somehow retracted my gaze even though I knew that she must have found my gaze eyeing her from up to down.

“…sorry. ” After facing my phone back again, I quietly apologized but didn’t hear any response from her.

To distract my mind I began scrolling through my web browser which showed nothing but recent news

I just needed to stop myself staring at her. I have read and heard from sources that women don’t like being looked at intently even by those whom they like, all the time.

I decided to keep my head low until Emiko-san didn’t turn off the lights…but while scrolling down the news something immediately caught my attention, bringing a frown between my brows soon after.

[The renowned star of the modeling world and the person holding her position amongst hot-topic for a constant six months now, Harada Emiko has been spotted at the west corner of Tokyo near the Management School… ]

I remained frozen at my spot while reading the article.

As I thought, Emiko-san really needed to be alert and stop being seen in public, especially with me…

A/N: – Next chapter, his delusion would be cleared out.

You know me. I don’t like misunderstanding and to clear it up, proper communication is the key.
