What was she doing in my room? I kept thinking to myself trying to come up with a conclusion, but I didn't succeed as much. I walked over to Aia's room and I saw her sleeping there peacefully. She didn't have a blanket over her and it's getting cold since its night time. I went to my closet and pulled out a white blanket and headed back to her room. I walked in quietly not wanting to wake her up and gently put the blanket over her and got one of her pillows from the bed and gently moved her head to the pillow. I got up and left. As I was leaving I turned off her lamp and closed the door and headed back to my room. I laid on my bed finally being able to let out a breath. It was getting pretty late and Mrs. Yua already went home. I changed into more comfortable clothes and later on went to bed.
The sun was shining bright out of my screen door and I couldn't avoid it anymore and finally got up. I searched for a towel and started the shower waiting for it to get hot. After a few minutes I went in and felt the hot water hitting me. It felt really relaxing and nice after waking up. I washed my hair and body and enjoyed the water for a few more minutes thinking about how everything is gonna be different now.
I just finished high school and I'm already engaged to someone I've never met before and now we're living together. Just me and her.
I turned off the shower and dried myself off and wrapped the towel around my waist. I went to go get my clothes on and after changing I headed downstairs. I saw Mrs. Yua but not Aia.
"Mrs. Yua. where is Aia?" I asked.
"She's in the backyard drinking some tea on the patio." Mrs. Yua answered.
"Could you please tell her I have a meeting today with Director Reo about our film?" I asked fixing my tie.
"Yes sir." She said.
"Thank you." I said and went out the door. I got into my car and left the house. My car was a red 1/18 AUTOart Honda Acura NSX. I drove into the city which isn't that far from the house and went to meet up with Director Reo at LSC Entertainment.
Ever since I was in middle school I've always wanted to be an actor and be apart of movies and filming. I've always appreciated actors giving their best and going on harsh diets and everything to match their roles and characters.
As soon as I walked inside Cherry popped beside me.
"Hey Riku! Your looking nice today!!" She screamed while running from the entrance door.
"Ugh do you have to be so loud?" I said in an irritated voice.
"Hehe I always have to silly!!" She shouted with joy again.
"It's way too early to handle your loudness." I said walking to the elevator.
"Your going up too!! Me too! Me too!!" Cherry laughed.
I can't believe how loud she is today! When everyday she is loud but today she's even louder than usual! As soon as the elevator opened I pressed the 15th floor button and realized that Cherry was in here with me.
"What are you doing?" I asked with irritation.
"I'm going up on the same floor as you silly!" She said in a happy tone.
"And I thought this couldn't be better." I grumbled to myself in a quiet voice.
As we reached the floor and the doors opened Cherry ran right out of the door and to Director Reo's room where our meeting was held. I can't believe she's gonna be in that meeting too. I opened the door and saw everyone. I sat in my regular spot and Director Reo started talking.
"Alright! Now that everyone is here we can get to business. I will be filming a new movie tomorrow and I want you all to be apart of it. Riku you are the Male lead character and Sun Hee I want you to be the female lead." He said.
I felt Sun Hee looking at me and I glanced back at her.
"Well well finally a good looking male lead, just my type too." She said seductively.
Sun Hee, one of the most female actresses that ever made it big. She's a horrible person I admit, but I guess her acting is good.
I shot her a cold glance and paid attention to the Director again.
"What's the movie about?" Cherry asked.
"It's called Tears of Endearment, it's about a girl who suffers from chronic eosinophilic leukemia and her best friend wanted her to live out her life to the fullest so he planned every adventure and stayed by her side until she passed away." Director Reo said.
"Its a beautiful tragic story!! I love it!!!" Cherry shouted.
"And the best part is that the Male lead loved her ever since their childhood and which is exactly why I chose it!!! My assistant gave me some novels from the ShinHigh Writing Industry and I read this one and fell in love with it!!!" Director Reo said with many happy expressions showing all at once.
"Who wrote it?" Sun Hee asked.
"Aia Suzuki." Director Reo said with a straight and serious face.
A sudden shock hit me and I froze in my place. She wrote this?! The girl I'm engaged to wrote this novel?!!
"Aia Suzuki.....Suzuki....! Wait!! you mean THE Aia Suzuki??!!!!!" Arata said with shock.
Arata Tanaka is one of the best actors here as well as I am. He mainly stars in movies and sometimes as the second lead in dramas. He's also a very patient guy which is respectful honestly.
"Yes that is correct!" Director Reo said while clapping.
"Who is she?" Cherry asked.
"She's the daughter of Leon Suzuki of Legions Industries! One of the biggest business industries!" Aki said with excitement.
Aki Tanaka, Arata's cousin who moved from France to join this company. He stars in everything equally, but I've never done a movie with him before so I don't know what he's like.
After Director Reo dismissed us Sun Hee came up to me.
"Aren't you excited to film with me!" She said with a smile.
"No." I coldly said and got on her nerves.
"Riku Takahashi, it will be a pleasure filming with you." She said with a sneaky look and left.
I looked at the cover of the novel script and her name was really there. Aia's name was really actually there. I left the building and got into my car. All of this has gotten me stressed out as well as dealing with Cherry and Sun Hee's behavior today. I loosened my tie and headed home.
