To no one's surprised, the first trailer of Cheerful Youth went trending #1 in all social media platforms. Natsu the manager was flooded with emails and calls from a good amount of brands to offer Kumo Bell new advertisement contracts. Many of them also submitted requests to sponsor their first concert.
It had been 2 years since they debuted, and if they could hold their very first full concert the rookie label would definitely no longer stick in their image. After winning the Rookie Award, Kumo Bell had been working really hard to secure a trophy in Japan Music Award. They were preparing for their concert, released a new album, shot a new music video.
#CheerfulYouth #YuiShidoh #KumoBell were the top 3 most searched keywords on the internet but that changed this morning when GreenEast announced the date for their press conference.
#GreenEast #GreenEastPressCon #LongLiveTheKing #KimYoonjae #SonKangyu #LeeChanghyuk #HanRyeowook #BaekWoochan #StarLordEntertainment #WithGreenEastTillTheEnd
These 10 keywords dominated search engines and social medias. People were going crazy, GreenEast held the power to create trends. They were excited to know what kind of future that the King Maker would bring to the entertainment industry.
The filming started, all stars were sitting on a comfy living-room like stage where they were chit chatting about their daily life. The host would ask them questions and fans would get to know a new side of their favorite stars.
The stars were sitting comfortably on the sofa. Shizu was watching the show beside Andy.
"Excuse me, who are you again?" Yui Shidoh suddenly crossed her arms as she stared straight at one of the cameras.
"Cut!" The director desperately removed the hat from his head as he yelled in frustration.
Now all eyes fell on Erika Itoh who was sitting happily next to a camera to watch the filming. She raised her head then looked right and left awkwardly.
"Are you deaf or a dog bite off your tongue? I thought an outsider is not allowed here. I don't see your badge. Who. Are. You?" Glaring, she repeated herself in a higher tone.
Of course Yui Shidoh knew who she was. She was a rookie model that took Tokyo Runway by storm and made big national headlines for signing an exclusive contract with Christian Dore, an international luxury brand. But not many knew that she only got the contract because Yui Shidoh refused to sign with Christian Dore.
She didn't care about the contract, what iritated her was the fact that Erika Itoh roamed around in her playground without giving her a greeting first. Cheerful Youth was her very first reality show. With the absence of GreenEast that entire show was basically made for her.
Yui shidoh raised a brow, as she waited for Erika Itoh's reaction. Erika's face reddened from the embarassment. She balled her fists. No one was brave enough to take Erika Itoh's side as she was nowhere near Yui Shidoh's level.
Kumo Bell who were sitting on stage with Yui Shidoh looked at one another. On the right side, you could see Moreno slowly leaning his chin on Kuran's shoulder then circled his arm around his twin's waist. Now that the infamous trouble makers had their mouth shut- the identical siblings looked like a living fanart who jumped out of a painting. A soft smile appeared on their gorgeous face. They were amused at the sight of drama.
Then we moved to Sano and Ritsuo who sat on the left side. The eldest member passed a bottle of water to Sano while keeping his mouth zipped. Unlike the Yamada Twins, Sano and Ritsuo prefered to sit out of any cat fights.
Last we got Kira who was sitting in the center of Kumo Bell. He could feel the tension between the two stars was rising. It didn't take a genius to tell that Yui Shidoh was about to eat Erika Itoh alive.
"Good afternoon senpai. I'm Erika Itoh. I apologize for not greeting you in advance it will not happen again." She bowed her body down low. She could feel all eyes were on her and not for a good reason. Her ears were steaming hot from embarassment.
"Senpai? Oh so you're a rookie... Don't you have any jobs? Should I give you one? Sure, come and see me after the shooting. Ms. Katagiri, lend her your badge if she wants to stay." She tilted her head then crossed her arms on her chest. Effortlessly showed her dominance as a Feisty Queen.
Shizu pointed a finger to her face then shot her brows up as she looked at Yui Shidoh in disbelief. Her face was saying: Me? Really!? You want me to give her my badge??
Yui Shidoh nodded her head nonchalantly then gestured her to do what she was told.
Shizu was hesitating. As a woman, Erika Itoh's pride would get hurt if she accepted help from the boyfriend's ex-girlfriend. But what could she do? She did come without a badge! Even the stars had all their badges with them. She took a deep sigh. She really didn't want to have anything to do with Erika Itoh, especially after she saw her kissing Kira. Slowly she removed her badge, then approached Erika.
"Shidoh - Senpai I..." Erika Itoh protested.
"Then get out if you don't want to wear her badge."
"Hahahaa!!!" Moreno fell from his seat as he bursted into laughter. His twin giggled behind him.
Sano the keyboardist could only scratch his head whereas Ritsuo the leader, had his eyes and mouth wide opened as he struggled to freeze the utter offensive words in his throat to curse the twins. 'These two ass-holes!!!' What's so funny about the drama!?
Kira shut his eyes with annoyance. He tried to keep things low between him and Erika Itoh but now Yui Shidoh had to drag Shizu. It was not an unspeakable secret that Kira, Shizu and Erika shared a complicated relationship. People made a lot of versions regarding their relationships. He was cursing under his breath then shot a glaring eye to the Yamada Twins who were laughing.
Moreno covered his mouth with his palms whilst Kuran sucked his lips in then gave a suggestive wink as soon as his naughty eyes met Yui Shidoh's.
"Natsu~ Be a gentleman and give her your badge." Trying to ignore Kira's death stare, Kuran playfully requested to his manager.
Erika's face was all red. Instead of blaming the twins, she was cursing Shizu Katagiri for the embarassment that she suffered. 'Now that you have destroyed Kira, do you also wish to destroy me? No, I will never let that happen. I will protect myself and Kira. We both will be happy and I will send you to hell. You will crawl to your feet and beg me for mercy. You deserve nothing in this world. Nothing!!'
Kira got up from his seat then approached Erika Itoh. Even while approaching Erika Itoh, his eyes were instinctively looking for Shizu's. Their eyes met. Shizu held her breath. A smile appeared on his face. It wasn't a sad or forced smile. It was a warm-neutral smile that she hadn't seen for so long. He turned his gaze to Erika Itoh who was staring at the floor then dragged her out.
