All Chapters of Me Before You: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

(Kenma's POV)So Taehyung's going to meet Kageyama, it absolutely slipped my mind, he told me about it earlier, a few days back I suppose. I hope she's ready by now, I adjust my tie, brush off my coat before I walk into her room. "Hika-" I lower my voice and don't finish calling out her name. She's so immersed in viewing the scenery outside. How cute. I smile to myself and silently make my way towards her, I stand right behind her and place my hand on the glass glancing outside and then back at her tiny figure. I feel her shiver as she turns towards me. I want to embrace her, keep her safe, keep her within my sight forever."Let's go, shall we?" I smile the brightest. For once, I feel like I'm not faking my personality, she makes me feel different. Or maybe there's something about her that's different than the rest. I notice her small causalities, it's so adorable, how she bites her lower lip when she gets nervous. She's so simple-headed and e

A few hours later.I went to the kitchen to cook some Dinner for everyone but to my horror, there wasn't any material for a proper meal to be cooked so I decided to go out to buy some things from the grocery store.The store wasn't that far from their place, it was at a walking distance."Thank you," I said as I took the stuff and left the store.It isn't too soon after I started walking down the dark sidewalk that I notice the footsteps behind me.At first, I wasn't too concerned.A middle-aged lady with a shopping bag had been heading in the same direction as me earlier. So I assumed that it's her making the soft clicking sounds on the concrete behind me.But, I shouldn't have.The thing that caused me to get alarmed was that when I lengthened my stride and speeded up my pace, the footsteps speeded up too. And when I begin to speed-walk due to my uneasiness, the footsteps followed.My heart was jumping in my c

It all started 2 years backIt was dark already, I took a glance at my watch to check the time and to my horror, it was even more late than I expected it to be. It's 2 a.m. It took me a little longer than I expected to finish up my assignment at my office.I locked the office and took out my phone to call my driver. But it doesn't seem like a good deed to disturb someone this late, so I decided to walk back home.Soon I felt like I had some company, due to the bad lighting I couldn't make out who was I being followed by.But being a coward I broke into a sprint.Panting in fear and exertion, I continued to push myself to my limit, hoping and praying for some blessed, living soul to walk out and help me.My answer came not how I expected, in the form of a broad chest that I smashed into while checking behind for my pursuers."hey," a rough voice murmurs "Are you okay?"Oh, no.NoI prayed

Pfft-"As if" I mocked at his naive thoughts "you can't even touch her" I know I should be mindful of my words but well, what he says is next to impossible. She lives with my father who resides with an inessential level of security. He is way too low level to even make it past the street of that house. They might be a powerhouse in Japan, but here, in Korea, as much as I hate to admit, my dad's more powerful than they are.He slightly smirked at my comment, although as if I cracked a joke.He signals one of his men and soon enough I can see a small body, resisting the man to her full strength, her body slightly familiar, not weak but not strong as well."Take off her mask" The leader asked the man dragging the girl.I gasped at the sight which was beyond belief for me."hikari!? HIKARI!!!!! BAJBXOAN" she muffled as her mouth was filled with a cloth in order to prevent her from speaking, needless to say."NAOMI!" I yelled, evidently su

(Present Day)ORIONS's break was almost over, time flew by swiftly, I was so caught up with all the work load that I didn't even realize when the days passed by.It's a glorious evening, warm but not too close, the sun starting it's lazy descent, shadows lengthening and the light just beginning to burnish the trees with gold.Beautiful sunshine, cloudless skies, no one to play with or go out with, nothing to do. Living like this, the way I'm living at the moment is harder in summer when there is so much daylight, so little cover of darkness, when everyone is out and about, being flagrantly, aggressively happy. It's exhausting,and it makes me feel bad if I'm not joining in.The weekend stretches out ahead of me, forty-eight empty hours to fill with nothing but cleaning and cooking.I sighed as I thought of what could've been and what actually is happening. The wide difference between my creative imagination of spending a go
