"I want to hear your wish…
I don't know whether our meeting was fate, but since I took your hand in mine.
I've never once thought of letting go…"
___
Hospital, C Town, 12:00
Kiryu sat up and looked at his surroundings. "A hospital…" he murmured. But, it's not the usual place. This doesn't seem to be his hometown either. Where is he? He quickly analyzed his situation once he saw the date on the calendar. It's June, halfway through the month. His birthday, her audition. Times he planned to meet with her, they've passed by already.
' Experiences shape a person.
Although the amount of mistakes both me and Sumire committed are
more than what the majority have.
All those painful experiences have helped us grow.
Kiryu, if it's you— and my daughter.
I'm sure you can both discover a method to lessen the suffering people have to face through their mistakes. '
As he recalled Yuhi-san's words, he murmured…. "Mistakes.." Before he found himself lost in thought? Was it a mistake? A mistake for him to let her go. He heard her voice. But that's why he understands. He has to let go of her hand soon. Lila, she sang for him and the image of her doing so remained fixed in his mind. So beautiful, so radiant. His Lila, it seems like it will be time to say goodbye soon.

"Amazing, you were asleep for so long and yet your body healed up well.." Atsuro turned to Selia, "You did a good job."
"T-thank you."
Guess he ought to thank her too. He didn't want to end up like those people who have to undergo rehabilitation for a while because they haven't moved their limbs in a long time. After a few more check up Atsuro-san left, he turned to the girl.
"Thanks."
"Kiryu-kun…"
Seeing the tears in the girl's eyes, he extended his hand out towards her head.
"Hey, don't cry. It's all right, sorry for worrying you."
Kiryu continued to pat the girl's hair. His gaze flickered towards the window and he shut his eyes. He heard it loud and clear, she was crying. Lila. That idiot, she used that song to wake him up. She actually changed it into a love song.
…
"Kiryu-kun, are you listening?"
"I am."
Selia sighed, "You only just, woke up after being asleep for a long time. While it's a miracle, you're able to move at all, don't get up for a few hours, until Kusaji-san's analysis is finished."
"Yeah."
He didn't know why he tried to stand up anyway, he only knew he wanted to see her. The moment he woke up, the one he wanted to see is her.
"Also…"
"Hm?" Kiryu only half paid attention to Selia's words.
"They said she's coming here, your girlfriend."
Lila? At that, he stopped daydreaming, and asked, "When?"
"By tonight or tomorrow. So it's perfect timing that you woke up."
"Yeah…" So Lila is coming here? He gets to see her again. It's already been so long, will she get mad at him? Did she cry? At that last thought, he felt his chest swell up in pain. After hearing the news, she most likely cried…
"What's wrong?" Kiryu asked as he noticed Selia's gaze turn dim.
"Should I leave, your girlfriend is coming here. She might not want to see me…"
Kiryu shook his head, "Lila isn't unreasonable. It's true that she gets jealous, but she isn't an unreasonable person."
Selia must have heard from the others regarding Lila's feelings towards him having a female assistant. Geez, they talk too much.
"But… I've been... staying over at your place. She won't like that right?"
Honestly, he didn't want her to stay at his place. But she's no longer safe in the dorm. He thought no one would attack her, since things were peaceful for a while, even after she came here. However, as of late. The attacks have become more frequent.
"She won't. But it's only a temporary measure until Hisame-san works out some guards for you and good accommodation. Relax." Kiryu said as he extended his hand out and patted her head.
He barely lived together with her before all this happened anyway, at most it was a few days. But Lila, will definitely not like this. He ought to tell her straight away before she hears it from someone else.
"Iyu-!"
Kiryu blinked seeing the little girl, but picked her up, "Hey, what are you doing here…"
"Kiyu- wake!"
A knowing ah escaped his lips. Hoshiko looked at him with tears in her eyes, and he chuckled softly. "I'm better now. Just need to rest." The little girl's pouty cheeks, however, didn't disappear, and she looked him up and down for injuries. He winced in pain when the girl moved his arm.
Selia moved over, proceeding to remove Hoshiko from him, "Hoshiko-chan, let Kiryu-kun rest.."
However, Hoshiko slapped Selia's hand away, rather harshly.
"Hey, Hoshiko." he started. But paused as he saw the little girls expression, her cheeks puffed up into a pout.
"Kiyu—Kiyu— Lila-onee-chan's…!" Hoshiko struggled to say, but he immediately understood. He stared at her, completely speechless.
….
Kiryu laughed, oh dear.
His gaze softened, "Hoshiko, your sister is coming here."
"Hosiko- meet Lila-onee-chan!"
Bright light filled the little girl's gaze with a bright light, and Kiryu gently kissed the girls forehead. "Kwis!"
"Greet your sister properly."
"I prepared pwesent!"
.
.
When the girl was fast asleep, Selia spoke up, "Should I take her away?"
"No, leave her. She must be exhausted too." Never again will he take the girl with him to battlegrounds, no matter how peaceful it is.
"Did Lila send anything?" Kiryu asked.
"What do you mean?"
Seeing the girl's demeanor he shook his head, "No...it's nothing." Guess he ought to ask Sumire-san later. Selia's reasons for hiding it is probably that. On that day someone attacked them, he was already thinking of ways to break ties with her.
Having female friends is fine. Lila isn't that unreasonable, and he considered Selia as a good friend. However, there's a fine line he must draw, especially when the other party falls for him. Kiryu closed his eyes. That really was a nice song. Atsuro-san said it's thanks to Selia's efforts he could move around. But he probably said that only because Selia was in the room. Other people are noticing huh, he can't be oblivious to this any longer. He wants nothing to hurt Lila. To think she sang for him is she that much of an idiot? He could hear it so clearly. Lila's singing is the reason why he woke up.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
