Harumi let out a shocked gasp, although her arms wrapped around Akira securely. Her brown eyes were tightly closed, letting out few soft sniffles while her eyes were still teary. When he took a step back and said that, Harumi hesitated, getting worried that if Josh knew then maybe he’d tell Elizabeth and she’d do even worse things to her.
“Okay.” Harumi nodded finally before putting her hand up to wipe under Akira’s eyes. “Thank you Akira. Thank you.” she said a few times under her breath before her eyes met with Sangre’s.
Without needing her to say another word, Sangre spoke with a rough voice. “You’re staying in the kitchen when Elizabeth comes over from now on. Josh would understand and I’m not leaving her with you okay?”
Nodding her head, Harumi looked at both men one last time before bowing her head. “Arigato, both of you. I’ll be okay just as long as she doesn’t return. Although she’s visiting this week, I’m unsure when exactly.” Harumi muttered.
