Dream Star

Kiryu"s current condition doesn"t seem to be any better than Lila"s too. For him to handle those people during his weak state is no good.

Lila rushed up to him, "I"m sorry hubby, they wanted an autograph and pictures. One of the girl"s camera wasn"t working too."

"That"s an excuse to take more pictures." But well, he supposes it is normal for fans. Haruka placed his coat around her shoulders, "You"ll catch a cold wife."

"Hubby, how about you?"

"Mm, it"s fine. My clothes are thick," he reached out for her hands and rubbed them for a few minutes. "Wife, let"s go buy you some gloves, and a new scarf."

"Okay."

Haruka found a quiet store with not many customers and brought Lila there. Who happily started to browse. This is what he likes about her. He doesn"t have to choose a particular store. He could pick a random one, and she wouldn"t mind. Then again, Haruka supposes any normal girl would be fine with anything. The females he had been around up till now were the materialistic kind. Even when they were both poor, Sophia liked branded items. She would sleep with numerous men just so she could live a high-cla.s.s life.

He still found it strange, not being poor. Not having to beg or steal, not having to sleep around. The current life he had differed from the average normal person. But, he is living a far better life now than he did previously. Forget money and his career. He even has a cute wife.

"Hubby, what do you think of these?" Noticing that she was holding up dresses, he blinked.

"What happened to buying gloves and a scarf?"

"Those can wait, let me choose some winter clothes. I don"t have many."

"Is that his fault too?" He has a habit of tearing her clothes. Then again, isn"t his wife the weird one for wearing winter clothing in summer? Still, he should make it up to her. Even if they are both rich, he shouldn"t be tearing away all her clothes. Lila has her own brand and wears a lot of her own brand clothes too. She made those clothes by hand, and he ruined them.

Feeling guilty, Haruka scanned the shop. Even if it was a small shop, the clothes here looked fairly decent.

Haruka picked something up from the nearby rack. It was a long off-shoulder dress with a poncho attached to it.

"Wear this."

Lila looked at the dress and then back at him. "For me?"

"For you wife, you can wear it out."

She scanned the dress up and down, "Is this your fetish Haruka?"

Even though the dress was long, it would look like an alluring dress without the poncho. It was made to highlight the other person"s figure. Uh, shoot. Did he just pick that kind of dress for Lila?

A chuckle escaped her lips, "I"m kidding! Thank you, hubby, I"ll try it on now," she pressed her lips on his cheek before she skipped away.

"That girl...makes him speechless." Haruka stood frozen in that spot for a few minutes. In the first place, when he started dating her, Haruka didn"t think it would last long. Especially with her behavior. She was reluctant to tell him the words, "I love you," because those words, she reserved them for Kiryu.

They"ve gone through a lot together. Whenever Haruka thought about it, he couldn"t believe that they remained together. So many people tried to get in their way and break them apart. Yet they still stayed together. He really put Lila through a lot. Unlike her, he only had Austin Kiryu to deal with.

After a few minutes, Haruka became anxious because he realized that Lila hadn"t come out yet. Haruka made his way towards the changing rooms.

"Excuse me, my wife hasn"t come out for a while, and I"m worried."

"Your wife?" the lady was looking him up and down. Clearly, she already heard all sorts of excuses like this before.

Haruka removed his gla.s.ses, and at that comment, the lady"s eyes widened. "K--Karas.h.i.+ma.."

"Lila came here," Haruka said softly. He described what she was wearing, and the lady nodded. She went towards the changing room at the end and suddenly exclaimed loudly.

"Sir, your wife. I think she is sick."

Haruka immediately made his way over, and sure enough, saw Lila curled up into a ball shape. Lila was already wearing the dress, but he noted how she hadn"t changed her shoes yet. Or put on the full attire. Haruka wanted to rush out with Lila immediately but realized something.

"Myou."

A man with turquoise colored hair appeared. "Pay for this, and gather the rest of it."

"Yes, sir." Myou was swift and turned to the female worker to discuss things.

Haruka picked up the girl carefully. Her entire body seemed to be burning. This isn"t a fever; something is wrong here.

Imperial Hospital

Lila only just got discharged here a few days back, but now she is here again. His gaze fell on the girl who was fast asleep on the bed, with all sorts of tubes attached to her. What happened now? She was fine before, she was getting better. Is it because he touched her earlier?

"Karas.h.i.+ma," a voice from behind him said. He turned and spotted Lila"s doctor, it was the man who raised Austin Kiryu. The one called Eita, "Did you…"

"I"m terribly sorry."

Eita shook his head, "No, her results a few days back were fine. You"ve been taking care of her very well," he looked him up and down. "Karas.h.i.+ma, can I do a quick medical examination on you?"

"Huh?"

"Even a blood sample will do. I need to confirm something."

Haruka paused and clenched his fist when he heard those words. "You don"t have to," he recalled what happened not too long ago when he went to meet with Zane. Zane gave him some drinks. He should have refused it. But it didn"t taste bad. Haruka didn"t think Zane would bother drugging him anymore.

"It was my fault. I drank something I shouldn"t have."

"I"ll remove the toxins from your body. When Lila wakes up, give her your blood again."

"Alright."

Haruka followed Eita into a room beside Lila"s. During the entire removal process, that consisted of his arm being jabbed several times. His gaze fell on his wife. Now that he thought about it, for the last six months, episodes similar to this have happened too. But, not like this. He needs to be more careful. Next time he goes over to Zane, he won"t drink anything.

During the process, the girl woke up. She looked around for a moment before she started to cry. Uhhh… why is she crying? Because she didn"t see him?

Eita pressed a b.u.t.ton, "Talk to her through here," he pointed at the mic on the desk.

"Lila? Look over."

"Hubby?" Lila followed his instructions and glanced over. She frowned when she saw what was happening, "You don"t have to.."

So, Lila noticed it and drank his blood anyway? Why is his wife so stupid at times?

"It"s fine. I"ll get rid of it so you can have nice blood again," Haruka joked.

"But, that"s painful."

Now that he was no longer in his daze. Haruka could feel the pain. Lila pulled the tubes from her arms and stood up. H--hey! Haruka looked over at the girl alarmed. Clearly, Eita did too, but it was already too late. Lila fell forward a few times on her way there. Of course, she did, her body was still weak. Her face deadly pale. He wanted to rip off the needles in his arm but knew he couldn"t get up.

A relieved sigh pa.s.sed his lips when Lila entered the room. She made her way over quickly. Thankfully, his seat was close to the door. He extended his free hand out and made her sit down on the free chair beside him.

"Wife, I"m alright. Just rest, close your eyes again." He was very worried about her.

"Hubby, I want to stare at you."

Hey, is this really the time for that?

"I"m not in pain, wife, so close your eyes."

She"s the one who looks terrible.
