Always Remembering A Forgotten Love

Chapter Twenty 7 Years Later

7 Years Later

Megumi POV

I'm so busy. It's hard handling a company. Yes, a company. After I went to college I continued to study my master degree in business administration at Harvard University with Mashiro-kun. My company is called MYSY pronounced as mi-si. During my studies, I started producing songs under that alias and now the company I have is a production company but is also a talent agency at the same time. It's a place where we create music and produce outstanding music and individuals. Even now I still compose and I still release albums. My music is now known worldwide.

"Megumi-san, these are the files you asked for." My secretary Reina-chan, said as she gave me several folders. As I reached the files she was holding, the door of my office suddenly blast open and came in is Mashiro-kun who is dressed in a business suit. He's still taking care of me and I really appreciate it. He could have worked somewhere else but he chose to manage the branch of their business here in Boston because he doesn't want to be apart from me or so he says but the real reason is that...

"Hey, my honey, Are you busy? Let's go on a date." Mashiro-kun said as he place an arm on Reina-chan's shoulder. He looks like he's kidding but he's pretty serious.

"Yes, my schedule is packed and I don't have time for you." Reina-chan replied while giving him a snob look.

I met Reina-chan in my first year of college. She was the only Japanese classmate that I had during my college years. Mashiro-kun likes Reina-chan, even though it doesn't seem like that these two are already engaged. They proved the saying 'the more you hate, the more you love'. At first, they hate each other so much that they even can't stand the presence of one another but love changed them and it seems that kept being attracted at each other so Mashiro-kun made his move and then poof. The magic worked, they became lovers and just last month Mashiro-kun proposed and Reina-chan accepted. It's like having a big sister and big brother. These two always looked out for me and I really love them both. I'm happy for them too though they usually interact almost like their first meetings, there is love in their gazes and I can see that they love each other. It's just that Reina-chan loves her work so she doesn't want to be disturbed just to go on dates or so she says.

"You can go Reina-chan. I'm almost finished anyway." I said as I gave them a smile.

"YES! You're the best Megu!" Mashiro-kun celebrated with what I said. Reina-chan was about to say something but Mahiro-kun dragged her towards the door while discussing where they should go. When they're out of my office I laughed.

So much have changed in seven years, for example is that Kei & Hikari, Akira & Tadashi, Sakura & Jun, Ryuu-nii & Finn are already married and they were angry at me for not attending even though I sent them gifts. Yes, you read it right; I've been in contact with them since my third year in college. That was when Kei and Hikari decided to get married. You would never expect that though, I thought they will wait till they graduated but all in all it was fine. Akira and Tadashi followed the next year, Sakura and Jun married after college, and Finn and Ryuu-nii were married a year later after Jun. as for Yahiro, it seems that he's still single and that he recovered some memories of me when were still not close but it was alright. I can live with that. As for the incident back then, Akisha was arrested for it. It seems that she tried to murder me but hit Yahiro instead. The police were able to track her and she went to jail with mountains of crimes. Their company also went bankrupt because the Saiga group withdrew their shares. It seems she and Hiroyuki-niisan were accomplices so Hiroyuki-niisan also went to jail and because of that Mashiro-kun's father needed him in the main branch but he declined so their cousin is the one running the branch temporarily because 'we' are planning on going back to japan within 3 months. I am relocating my company in Japan so Reina-chan, Mashiro-kun and I are finally going home. I am so nervous and excited at the same time. I'm finally seeing him after these years. I glanced at my watch.

"Oh, it's already this late. I probably should get going." I packed my things and went home.

Yahiro POV

It's been seven years since I had that accident. I already remember Megumi until the months where she always sang to me after school and after that, I couldn't remember even though I tried. So many things changed. I was now the CEO of the Saiga Group. All the couples I know have gotten married. Kei is also the CEO of the Takishima Group but works here in Japan and Aoi, who married Alisa became the CEO stand-in. Kei only leaves the country if there is something important and urgent because he doesn't want Hikari to be alone frequently, Akira manages their airline, and Tadashi Became the Director of Hakusen Academy, which is really unexpected. Jun manages the Ushikubo Medical Manufacturing Group since he marries Sakura but he still have time for his violin. Ryuu became a successful world renowned veterinarian and works in Finn's country together with her. I also knew that Megumi has her own company. Regarding marriage, my father was pressuring me in marriage but my mother was against it. He keeps sending me omiai photos but I don't feel like I'm willing to look at them so I end up sending it back. I got this feeling like I'm yearning for something that wasn't there to begin with. It's like I lost something important, like I lost a part of my life. Since that accident, I feel like I've been living without a reason. Like a traveller wandering without a place to go. The weirdest thing that I've done these seven years is that since I remembered who Megumi was, I made it absolute that someone was tailing her to keep her safe and that they should report to me what she was doing. I just received information that she will be coming back here in three months' time together with Mashiro and his girlfriend, Satou Reina. I already have her researched and she seemed safe so I let her be.

My office door opened revealing Chitose.

"Nii-san, it's already late so mom told me to tell you to sleep already since you've got to be early tomorrow for the board meeting." He said.

"Okay. I'll go to bed soon." I replied.

Chito and Sui are already 18 years old and they are best of friends now. They are also part of the SA in their era, and they look promising. I went to my room, took a shower and laid on my bed. I looked at Megumi picture. Her hair was longer reaching her waist and her hair was wavier than I can remember. She looks so happy. Well, in a way her dreams have come true and I am so proud of her. I'm confused with these feelings. I feel so protective of her like I don't want another man to snatch her. Is it just brotherly love after all the things we've been through? Or is it something else. I fell asleep with my thoughts still lingering in my mind.
