Chapter 712: Her proposal
Even if I only say the wrong things
Even then, you always absurdly want to understand everything about me."
He needs to hurry up and step up his game. It seems even Hino is having a hard time holding back. If Hino ever becomes serious, he will be in trouble. \'I don\'t like the idea of competing with Hino either.\' Hino isn\'t like the other guys who like Sumire.
\'I consider him as family.\'
"Done!" Sumire beamed happily.
Yuhi\'s gaze fell on the \'finishing product\' only to find the words, \'Will you marry me?\' beautifully written across the omelet. For a moment, he stared at it, stunned, before he burst into laughter.
"This isn\'t funny!" Sumire pouted.
"You\'re asking this now, really?"
"I mean." Sumire\'s gaze is flushed red. "It doesn\'t seem right that your the only one who asked.
"Now, my wife, it shouldn\'t matter whether the man or woman proposes."
"I-I know, but I-"
Yuhi looked at her, puzzled. Why does she seem oddly worked up? Unless there is something that comes to mind. After all, she was the one who first brought it up. When they first started dating, she said something along the lines of dating with marriage in mind.
"You wanted to propose?"
"..."
So that\'s the reason why. His gaze fell on the omelet; despite her beautiful writing, some parts seemed wobbly. Was she nervous just writing it?
"If I waited for you to propose, I would probably have to wait for a year."Yuhi joked.
Sumire averted her gaze. "I-It wouldn\'t have taken that long." She trailed off. "-probably."
"It\'s February now, so it\'s eight months."
"That\'s because a lot happened towards the end of the year. Otherwise, I would have asked sooner."
Yuhi looked at her with a skeptical expression.
"I mean after you proposed. It was hard for me to bring it up again. I thought you might have strange thoughts like I didn\'t believe you or something."
"Then why now?"
It would make sense if she knew about the candlelight dinner plans. But she didn\'t even know. So he doubts it has anything to do with their taking advantage of tonight.
"It\'s not just tonight. I have been making omelets several times for dinner for a while now."
Indeed she has, but he simply thought she craved eggs. He didn\'t think there was anything special about this.
"They do say a way to a man\'s heart is their stomach. But you\'re taking that saying one step to far."
"I-is it weird?"
Yuhi\'s lips curve to a smile. "I wouldn\'t say so. I think it\'s just like you. So, where is my ring?"
She must have gotten him one before. Sumire clumsily pulled a box out of her pocket. "T-this doesn\'t really compare to the one you gave me. But, I wanted the chance to put a ring on your finger myself."
"You will during the wedding, though?"
Sumire pouted. "This is different, so give me your hand."
Yuhi chuckled. She really is acting cutely tonight. He extended his hand out, and Sumire placed it on the finger that already had the other ring.
The design was a lot simpler, but it shined against the moonlight. Seeing her struggling with flushed cheeks made him want to attack her. No, I can\'t do that. Earlier, he acted on his emotions, but he immediately regretted it. No, he didn\'t regret touching her but the method.
Touching her when he is emotional isn\'t good.
After a few minutes, Sumire eventually puts the ring on his finger. He brings it to his lips and kisses it.
"Thank you, wife. I will treasure this."
"R-right, you should." Sumire trailed off. "Maybe I should cover all your fingers with rings. So there is no chance of any other woman putting a ring on you."
"Even in this situation, you get jealous."
"I can\'t help it. I don\'t know what\'s wrong with me recently, but when I think about other girls liking you, I get strangely possessive."
She truly is cute. Yuhi stood up and walked over, so he was sitting next to her. He pulled the girl onto his lap and kissed her. It did not take long before she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him back.
"Sumire, your pretty."
"You told me so many times already."
Yuhi laughed. "I want to keep saying it."
The girl sighed at those words but nodded. His gaze fell on her appearance again. That dress aside, she even put on the right amount of makeup and perfume. The Sumire of the past knew nothing about makeup or fashion, so it\'s clear where she obtained that knowledge. It bothers him a little her using that knowledge from another man. But he doesn\'t want to judge her for her past.
If no Sumire of the past existed, then the current Sumire wouldn\'t exist.
"Are you excited to sing?" Yuhi gently caressed her hair.
This girl is most likely more excited than being nervous and anxious.
"I am; my heart is beating so fast just thinking about singing on a large stage again. Since I returned to the industry, Hino has been very patient with me, so I haven\'t sung in a large venue. The feeling of singing in a large venue is certainly different than a small one. But oh, this will be the first time I am singing on a large stage alone in a long time, so I wonder if I will be okay. It would be bad if I faint, wouldn\'t it?" Sumire turned to him. "My dearest, can you stand by backstage?"
"So I can catch you if you faint?"
"There is that, but I may need to recharge. The ending performance is a total of four songs. The sheet says I am performing at least two songs. The opening of the last part and ending. There is a break in between. Even if I attack you before the start, I may run out of power halfway, so I should recharge."
Yuhi had to stop himself from laughing. She has this all planned out, doesn\'t she?
"By the way, Hino told me something interesting; he said you wanted to do everything with me."
"Hino, that blabbermouth."
Yuhi cupped her cheeks. "Maybe we should stop eating and start doing everything."
"Eh?" Sumire trailed off for a moment before exclaiming. "Why do you always think of that type of thing?"
"Eh? I don\'t know what you\'re talking about." Yuhi feigned ignorance. "I just want to do something normal unless you have something else on your mind?"
"You\'re teasing me, your terrible Yuhi-san."
She says that, but her fingers are on his shirt, kissing him again.
