Silver Wish

Chapter 22 - So selfish

From: Lila

Subject: Its raining here

It's raining heavily here; so I think we will get held

up even longer than 3 days.

The other day Kiryu said he would wipe my tears away when I started crying.

But all I could think of thin was when you held me

in your arms all night long and comforted me.

When I'm in the pain, the one I turn to is always you Haruka.

He would call her selfish. But he is happy to hear that she thinks of him even when she is with Austin Kiryu. Well even if it's small, he has one victory against Kiryu.

Come to think of it he heard from Tokumori that Lila is reluctant to show her weakness with Kiryu. What was his name that she also went to before whenever she was upset?

Haruka has always wondered if there was any particular meaning to it. Although she is strong, he figured right away that the brunette had a weak side to her. When they first slept together, she was quiet and seemed hesitant about something. Although she didn't explain it to him, for some reason he could figure it out. ' Don't worry, there's love right here. '

After he said those words she instantly relaxed in his arms. It's not notably obvious but what's wrong with Ria is that. The word ' Love' for her can act as a deadly toxin more than a cure. It is something that can send her into endless amounts of despair.

He hopes she that she returns soon. Return soon and remain in his arms. Because every second they are apart from each other. Haruka knew that she is falling even further apart. That time, he didn't touch her. Aside from the kiss he merely held her in his arms all night long.

He didn't do anything, not due to the guilt. But because for her that's what she needed.

Kiryu, he wonders if that man understands it. The extent of her loneliness and grief. If he doesn't yet know he ought to figure it out. Because such a relaxed sounding comment can become more harmful.

His thoughts broke when he heard a knock on the door.

"You can come in."

Although he has never really paid attention to the other individuals in the entertainment world. How can he not know about the person that girl constantly thought about?

The girl's sister Terashima Kyoko. But unlike their last encounter, Haruka noticed something different. Seeing the crutches he stands up and helps the girl to the couch. "What happened to.."

He heard the woman was in hiding. How on earth did she end up like this? What's more, her legs are in bad shape. A quick glance is all it took for him to understand that.

She is a lot more timid than what he originally heard. "Yeah. Did you need something from me"

"I wanted to talk to you. . about Lila-Chan's songs."

Although she spoke quietly. Haruka understood where she was getting at. "Those are her real feelings. Since Lila''s lyrics are all for Kiryu. It's easy to find the meaning behind the song. For example our debut single ' A little pain.' The chorus where she says she is waiting for him, no matter what the future is. No matter how painful and different the current situation is. Here you can see that she's talking about the future. She already knows that at the end of this she will have to go her separate ways with him even if she loves him. "

But this also means that even if they separate. She will always wait for him. In that time Haruka wonders if he will be able to fulfill the gap in her heart. If it's even possible to do so. Even if it's impossible, it's already far too late for the two of them to return to the past.

"I want to feel your warmth, and look back on the shadows of the past." Kyoko suddenly said.

"You mean starless?"

"These lyrics are written from a male point of view. Sumire-chan. . understands it, she has for awhile now. His feelings. . Kanagawa-san, just now you said they will part once this is all over didn't you? "

Haruka nodded. "That's the direction this is all leading to. "

"But even if that were to happen. Even if she were to fall for you. Every time she sings, every time she writes lyrics she will always think of one person. " Oh, her voice is gradually getting louder.

"Your point? Did you come here to tell me to stop intervening or something?" Haruka scolded.

"No that's not it. I just wanted to see the person she spoke to me about so very fondly before. I confirmed it just now with our short discussion on the lyrics. You, you. . care a great deal about her and understand her a great deal. For all of us who have gathered around her that is more than enough to accept you. "

Accept huh? "Right now she's fighting between a conflicting battle with her emotions and feelings. It won't get any better from now onwards, it will only continue getting worst. All I can do now for her is hold her in my arms and tell her that I'll stay with her."

Kyoko sighed. "Yet, why are you here?"

She finally got to that huh? "I will see her next month. I contacted her recently too." Though it was only that one time. He wants to reply to her messages but Rikka told him to respect her.

Until you meet with your wife again, we are still together.

"But really you, the whole world is looking for you. How on earth did you end up in New York?"

"I was hoping I could get into contact with my mother. But it seems like she already left this place?"

"Yes. Is this about your leg?"

Kyoko nodded and undid the bandages. His eyes widened when he saw the current state. It looked rotten almost, if it weren't for the unusual black colour and darkness. Haruka would no longer see it as a normal leg, the shape was completely gone.

"I cant heal it." Kyoko mumbled. "There is nothing wrong with my ability too. But I cant touch it."

"So it rejects the light."

"Initially I intended to investigate alone for a bit and then meet up with Lila-chan and mother. But I ended up in this condition."

"Werent you with...Huan?" It still felt unfamiliar, using that name to call his former best friend.

"I lost sight of him in the northern region."

Haruka felt his blood grow cold when he heard those words.

"Haruka-kun, he---"

"I know, the idiot is strong." He knew that very well. After all that guy survived even though he should have died back then.

"Sorry." Kyoko mumbled. "I was the one who suggested we go to that area."

"You were searching for the crystals werent you?"

Kyoko blinked. "Do you know where they are?"

Haruka sighed. "I gave one to Lila. Zane has the other one, and the last one is probably with Kiryu."

"I see." Kyoko trailed off. "You know even now I believe those two will be the ones to save us from this situation."

"Not yourself?"

"I think my role is limited to a support one. I can support Lila-chan from the shadows.. But the one who will help her at the center is Kiryu-kun."
