Sana the youngest member of MISAMO, a cheerful lady who is always full of energy. Quite noisy but very empathetic. Her last name Hinonde translates as sunrise.
Yuji started the car and waited for the girls to get out, it was already 7:15 AM and they should be heading out by now.
Minutes passed by and his phone vibrates, he opened it up and read the text.
'Is there anyone out?' it was Mina. Yuji forgot that he was dealing with idols. He stepped out and look around and when he made sure that the coast was clear he waved his hand indicating that they can ran towards the van.
"Why aren't you checking your phone?" Momo nagged at him, Yuji scratched the back of his head with a smile, "My bad, not used to it yet" he said before starting the car.
As they drove off, he reminded everyone about their schedules. "Sana, you have a brand deal photoshoot today" Yuji said, "Haaaaai" Sana cheerfully answered. "Momo and Mina have vocal practice, so I'll pick you all three after class" he said in a commanding tone.
"Sure boss" Mina said with a cheer in her voice as well, while Momo just blankly stare at the window of the van.
They arrive at the school parking lot and park on the usual spot the van was parked. "How did you know where to park?" Mina asked.
"I always see this van here" Yuji answered killing the engine of the car.
He gets off and pulled off the door of the van, the three girls screamed and covered their faces. Yuji was surprised, "Close it!" Momo said in an angry tone. Yuji just pulled her out, "Just come out already, I asked Mendel to check the parking before I park the van." he replied.
"Ohh is that so?" Mina smiled, "Mina looks gross" Sana said laughing as she rans toward school.
"You two better go after her, I'll just make sure the van is locked properly" Yuji said.
Momo just put on the hood of her jacket and walked inside, "Uhmm Yuji, where's Mendel?" Mina asked, "As your manager, I ban you from dating that man." Yuji said proudly. Mina's eyes rounded surprised by Yuji's statement.
He laughed hard, "I was just joking, you already know his schedule so I think you know where he is" he said.
Mina was annoyed, she was about to punch him when someone yelled.
"Yuuuuuujiiii!!" it was Loid who had just parked his car.
"Run Mina" he whispered, "That guy would go crazy if he sees you" Yuji added. Mina doesn't have a face cover so she doesn't move from her position.
She heard the man was walking towards them, she tried making up excuses but nothing comes to mind then suddenly Momo lands a cap on her head and pull her.
"Don't be so lovesick next time" she said before pulling her in. She look sharply to Yuji and raised her index finger indicating that 'You owe me one'. Yuji just nodded and think about an excuse.
Loid ran towards him, "Hey wait" he said as the two girls run. "Mr. Zombie, I didn't know you have friends."
"T-they're not friends" he laughs nervously, "You been acting weird these days." Loid said with a curios look on face. "Get off my case dude, I'm just asking about uhh" Yuji don't have an excuse.
"Out of excuses huh?" Loid has a victory smile. "That was the president of the Music Club, I was just asking if auditions are coming" he said without thinking.
Loid got excited, "Finally after years of convincing you, you finally joined" he was proud of his friend.
"Might as well give it a shot right" Yuji stated with an awkward smile. The two started walking inside.
Yuji sighed, 'What did I get myself into?' he talked to himself. Loid interpreted the sigh wrong, "Dude, no need to be nervous. You're great at piano" he uplifts Yuji.
Yuji just smiled at him, then walks towards the other side of the hall. Loid was confused, "Don't we have the same class at this time?" he asked.
"Ohh I forgot to tell you, my schedule was changed" he said then his alarm rings. "Better get going dude, Five minutes before class" he said cutting off their conversation.
Yuji ran towards the classroom, sat down and breathed collectively. "That was stressful" Yuji said, "Already?" he said as a man speaks. Yuji looks up, it was Mendel, "Yow, what's up?" he smiled.
"You also take this class?" Yuji asked, "Yeah it's a general subject for engineering duh" Mendel answered. Yuji sighed again and was about to speak but the lecturer came in.
Class ended late due to the nagging of the lecturer for the repeating student of that subject.
Yuji look at his watch and notice that he was late, Mendel also look at his watch. "Bro, go ahead I'll catch you up on what this lecturer announced" he said.
Yuji nodded 'Thank you', he excused himself out of the class and ran towards the parking lot. He saw the three girls looking like gangsters with their hoodies on at the back of the van.
"Finally" Momo stood up, Yuji unlocked the van with the car key. The three hurriedly came inside the van. Yuji stepped in, "The lecturer nagged a lot" he explained.
The three was just silent, they already look tired. Yuji just shut himself and drive towards their appointments.
He dropped of the two back at the company for their voice lessons. "I'll pick you up after Sana's photo shoot" he said. Mina and Momo waved good bye at Sana.
Yuji was puzzled by them, as they drove off Sana was feeling uneasy at the back. Yuji noticed her by the rear view mirror. "You okay back there?" he asked.
"Y-yeah" she smiled. Yuji tried to figure out what's bothering her.
"Why don't you seat here by the front?" he said slowly stopping the car by the side of the road.
"Look, I don't know what happened with you three but I'm your manager you can tell me anything" he said confidently. Sana was just silent at the back, and Yuji drove again.
"You're probably nervous about the shoot?" Yuji took a wild guess, "Is it obvious?" Sana had a worried look on her face. "Nope, you're still shining bright" Yuji tried to lift up her spirit but still Sana has this uneasy look on her face.
"Don't worry, you'll do great. I know it's your first time doing it alone but still I know you'll ace this thing" Yuji said.
"You think? I wasn't able to asked the two about advices about these photo shoots" she was about to cry.
"Sana you're beautiful, that's why they chose you in the first place" Yuji answered. Her face lightens up a little. Yuji opened up his phone and started calling the group chat.
"Wait, why are calling them?" Sana asked, "Just Shhh" Yuji said smiling. Momo was the one who answered, "What do you want stupid manager?" Yuji lifted his phone and face his camera on Sana at the back.
Momo turned silent then Mina shows up, "Aww, our dear Sana" Mina said.
"Hey Sana" Momo called her, Sana faced them with teary eyes, "I can't do this" she said about to cry.
"W-wait calm down Sana" Mina said, Momo was also about to cry. "Hey Peach vendor don't cry" Yuji whispered.
"What did you call me?" Momo shouted but Mina shush her. "Sana, you got this ask me anything you want" Mina said.
Her eyes rounded and tears fell, "Don't cry you're going to make your face puffy." Momo said, Yuji laughed and offered a handkerchief.
Sana nodded and the three converse along the way. A while passed, "You got all that?" Mina and Momo said. Sana nodded eagerly, "Thank you Unnies" she said now with the brightest smile.
"Show them the Hinonde that makes the flowers of MISAMO bloom" Momo suddenly blurted out making the three laugh.
"That was cheezy" Mina said, "Yeah, it was" Yuji softly laughed as well. Momo was annoyed, Sana laughed hardly but it cheered her up the most, "Thank you Momo Unnie" Momo smiled and ended the call.
After that stickers showing fighting appear on their group chat. Sana looks lighter now, Yuji sighed.
Sana practiced everything the two taught her at the back seat and Yuji was supporting her with his words as he drives. Time passed by and they reached the venue of the photo shoot.
He helped Sana get down of the car and carried all of her stuff. The moment they enter the venue staff of IHR is running around preparing. Yuji helped her get to the dressing room an hour passed by and Sana was ready and already wearing the clothes the brand is advertising.
Again her nervous face show when she got on position, Yuji noticed and snapped his fingers to get her attention. He mouthed 'Fighting' with both of his fist close and up.
Sana smiled and started posing. Yuji took the time to snap photos as well for the report. He also sent some to their group chats. More than 2 hours had passed and 3 outfit changes. The shoot finally ends.
She was so serious and fierce, everyone was surprised that the cute and full of sunshine Sana was able to pose well for a dark collection of a clothing brand.
Everyone claps and thank Sana. She bowed, "Thank you for being patient with me" she said. She receive flowers as thanks that he took pictures with. After the formality Sana rushed back to the dressing room, Yuji held back the studio to make sure that every photo that would be use is perfect.
"Discard this one, this is not her beautiful side" he just said out knowingly. After that he went back to the dressing room.
"Congratulations" he spoke to her. "Thank you, Oppa" Sana spoke teary eyed. Yuji blushed, "You're one cute sister" he said before she was pulled by Sana to snap some pictures.
