- Chapter 72- The memories~3
If someone had told me, ‘What if someday Emiko leaves you?’
I would have called them a fool, nothing less.
Although initially I feared that it was some kind of whim of Emiko-san and soon she would get fed up with me. After all, the world we belong to is simply incomparable.
However, with time and her strong influence in my life made me sure that whatever happened, this girl would never abandon me. I just couldn’t imagine Emiko-san leaving me behind and continuing with her life. It was simply impossible.
…however, I was wrong.
This different timeline I have been witnessing for who knows how long, showed me a different side of Emiko-san.
…somewhat more realistic.
Emiko-san has always desired popularity and her passion for modeling was something I have seen from very close. She doesn’t work for any kind of compensation or to be praised. She works since she likes it.
However, this different timeline showed, how Emiko-san could date someone she doesn’t love just to land her feet in the modeling world.
I was…hurt. Inexplicably so.
I knew this Emiko-san was not my Emiko-san but in a way, if Emiko-san hadn’t gotten famous and hadn’t fallen for me…would my Emiko-san also have considered forming a relationship with someone just for the sake of her dreams?
I…don’t want to accept such a possibility.
Followed by her confession to the other me about her partner, that was Kento Rei, something drastic happened that separated my other self from Emiko-san.
I tried saving Emiko-san from that blond bastard but that led to our separation.
Since Rei was a prominent figure with whom Emiko-san just started working, he fired her from the company and even threatened her that no one would ever work with her.
…and guess whom she blamed for it?
‘Why does this Emiko-san contain all those traits that my Emiko-san doesn’t have…’
If compared to the two, then Emiko was quite selfish, rude, and narcissistic. However, my Emiko-san was helpful, considerable, and someone who gave me priority over everyone else.
By this deduction, I knew this Emiko-san could never be the Emiko-san with whom I had spent more than two months while sharing the same house and sleeping in the same bed.
I strongly believe that she could never be her…
…or so I thought…

Emiko has recovered her health and currently was sitting beside Haruki.
The expression on her face was quite unsettling. Her eyes were red and extremely tired. She hasn’t slept for two days despite the Doctor’s and her father’s request.
It’s already been five days since that incident occurred and yet, Haruki hasn’t opened his eyes. His condition was stable but he remained unresponsive.
Rena and Masato went to the nearby hotel to freshen up and rest, while her father took her mother back home so she could rest.
For five days, Miyako has yet to say a single word. Even when told to, she couldn’t muster up anything. It was like she had turned mute entirely.
Naturally, Emiko’s father was quite worried but the doctors assured them that because of shock she must have temporarily lost her speech. Miyako needs to let all her emotions out to regain her voice.
Emiko has been so occupied with Haruki the past few days that she couldn’t even decide how to feel about her mother. Emiko’s priority lies in Haruki’s recovery and until she doesn’t see him awake, she won’t be able to rest properly.
Holding his hand tenderly, she gazed at his closed eyes as some words left her lips,
“…you…why are you so kind…Haru-kun…you protected me even though my family and I have hurt you so much…”
Remembering her last life and even this one, Emiko felt that all she and her family had given Haruki was pain and suffering. Even though it was her mother who forced this situation, Emiko was partially responsible for this incident as well.
Despite being a working woman and someone who would turn twenty-three this year, she didn’t pay attention to security nor was cautious enough to return home with Haruki after she found him. Not to talk about, she never told Haruki about his origin and the fact that Emiko doesn’t care who his father was. If she had told him beforehand…then maybe…
“…sometimes I think, do I even deserve you Haru-kun? ” She couldn’t help muttering to herself.
“I have lied to you so many times…hid so many things and forced myself on you…haah…I am the worst, aren’t I?”
The smile she currently wore, would have torn Haruki’s heart if he had seen her. The way she held his hand and muttered in a dim voice was quite pitiful. However, the sorrow she carried in her heart wasn’t going away despite how much she talked about it.
Raising her head she looked at him and asked,
“If I had told you everything Haru-kun…the reason why I love you so much and why I want to spend every moment of my life with you. If I had told you Haru-kun…about a past which only I know…would you have forgiven me?”
Emiko doubted that. Anyone would hate a person who realized her mistake after losing the person, precious to her.
She was asking a lot. The reason why she never confessed the whole truth was because she was scared of losing him. She wanted to first deepen their relationship and make Haruki entirely dependent on her…but it seemed she was late again.
…or so she thought.
“…and what if I say yes?”
Under Emiko’s widened gaze Haruki suddenly opened his eyes and asked in a very weak tone.
Her lips parted but no words came out. Her mind was blank yet full of so many thoughts. She wanted to say something…anything however, the temptation to just look at Haru-kun in silence and cherish the moment overwhelmed all her other emotions.
The happiness she carried in her eyes was not something Haruki could not notice. However, as difficult and mood-spoiling as it may seem, Haruki had to tell her the truth.
“Emiko-san…I finally understood the whole truth. The reason why you like me so much…I know everything.”
It was a very long day for both of them.
