"Saito!" The singer arrived greeting him with joy.
He had a new and fresh look, with a beard and sunkissed hair. He sported a stylized outfit that resembled a modern kimono. Anyway, Saito was very sexy that evening.
'Are they friends, or is Director Owens another of Saito's slaves?' The singer couldn't help but wonder.
Although unexpected, the climber's presence was a welcome surprise.
And Haruki assessed whether this fact meant that it was the climber who had nominated the singer for the role, or whether it was a coincidence.
Even if it was an indication, it didn't bother Haruki at all. For he had suggested his friends for other roles as well.
"Director Owens, how has it been since yesterday?" Haruki greeted him.
As he joined them, the singer realized that the men had already had a few drinks. Director Owens was giddy and his eyes gleamed. He finally sat down to listen to them, not knowing what to expect from this meeting.
