Chapter 14

STUDIO 3

Rena was talking to Shinn and the coordinator of the show when Juuna and Mika arrived at the studio.

Rena : Juuna-san!Did you bring her!?
Juuna : Of course!
Mika : (walking behind Juuna)
Rena : Is that her?
Mika : (smiles)
Rena : Oh my god,you are indeed so pretty!I am Rena!
Mika : Mika-des*bows
Rena : So,you are the assistant Shinn mentioned earlier. Good choice Shinn,good choice.You have one attractive assistant here.(laugh)

Mika just nod at Rena’s statement and she does not know how to react to that statement.So,she just nod and smile blantly.

Juuna : Alright,come Rena.Enough slacking..We have to get the next schedule planned before tomorrow’s broadcast.
Rena : Oh alright.For that band.Alright alright.!I’ll see you anytime soon Mika-san!

Rena gave Mika  a quick hug before going out of the room with Juuna.

Mika : (sigh)

Shinn suddenly appeared from behind and leaned close to Mika.

Shinn : Whats with that sigh?
Mika : Shut up.Lets go.You have another interview.
Shinn : Oh come one.I m tired.
Mika : Grow up. (left Shinn behind and walked towards the lift)

EVENING

KAZUKI PALACE

Mia : The interview sure is taking a very long time.
Mika :Indeed
Mia : Shinn must be really tired.
Mika : (watching the garden)
Mia : You must be tired too indeed.(sat beside Mika) Here,coffee?
Mika : (smiles) thank you Mia-san.
Mia : to be honest,I really really hope you stay with Shinn.
Mika : (opening her coffee) Ha?
Mia : Because,Shinn’s live has gotten brighter after you came if you didn’t realize.
Mika : Brighter?
Mia : Shinn,before this.Hated all his previous assistants.Trust me.He did. To him,everything and everyone is just  burden and he would scold and scream at all his assistants. He sometimes,refused to attend meetings and interviews. You can actually count the interviews he agreed to go within the last 2 years.
Mika : (listening closely)
Mia : (sigh) Shinn is actually very very lonely. His older brother is always busy,his sister has her own family to take care of her.His closest cousin Hiiro is the only who is always with him. But Hiiro has his own life to deal with too since he is an actor too.Not to mention,Hiiro is actually a composer too.So,he spends most of his time at his recording studio with his team.
Mika : (nods)

Mia : So,this is why,everyone here appreciates  you so much Mika. You somehow has some magic in you *winks
Mika : I don’t know how to respond this Mia-san (laugh)
Mia : Let me tell you something

Mia placed her coffee down and face Mika.

Mika : (looking at Mia)
Mia : Shinn was not the Shinn you know now.Since 2 years ago.He has been working so hard into his career.He had no fun at all.He often locked himself in the room.NO one even dare to ask why the next morning because they knew,he would either shout or ignore them. Shouji and Ishia would talk to him time to time but nothing would be resolved.Few days before you came,the previous assistant god scolded so bad that she cried and got fired right away. Shinn said he does not  want anyone to be his assistant but without an assistant,who would manage his schedule and all right? All of us have not really talked to him that much,until you came. And surprisingly,we thought you will be just another ordinary assistant who would just follow all his orders and do anything he wants.We were wrong I guess. But,the moment I saw you,I knew you would be different and I am glad that I am right.
Mika :Mia-san,I don’t think I am that good,I might disappoint you someday in the future though.
Mia : Whatever it is Mika-san.please stay by Shinn’s side.I am sure,he need you more than anyone else.
Mika : (speechless) I..
Mia : Promise me that you will be there whenever he needs you.Okay?
Mika : As an assistant,I can promise that Mia-san.
Mia : (smiles) thank you so much Mika.

Mia hugged Mika and thanked her again.

Mia : I shall be going now then.thank you for listening to me Mika-san *winks
Mika : No problem Mia-san(smiles)

Mia left Mika alone and walked to the centre of the palace to complete her work.
Mika : It is 4.40 now.

Suddenly Mika’s phone rang and the screen shows “ HARUNA”
Mika : Yes Haruna?
Haruna : MIKA!Guess what guess what!
Mika : You met your fav vocalist?
Haruna : It would be nice but no no!
Mika : Tsuzuku bought melon ice cream for you?
Haruna : MIKAAAA
Mika : Im just joking,what Is it?
Haruna : I found your necklace!
Mika : (shocked) really!?
Haruna : Yes yes,I was cleaning the room just now and I found it in one of those books.I think it got stuck in between the pages all this time!
Mika : Keep it safe!
Haruna : I have in my drawer.NO worries!Wait till you get back alright!Gotta go now!
Mika : thank you I love you so much!
Haruna : Love you too Mika-chan!

Mika smiled while looking at her phone screen and her smile is getting wider and wider because Haruna had found the necklace ,the one and only necklace that could connect her and her long lost sister.

Mika did not realized that Shinn was watching her from the sideways.

Mika : Thank you ,thank you so much.
Shinn : Never seen you with that kind of expression.Or that wide smile.You should smile more often.
Mika : (shocked) How long have you been standing there?
Shinn : Long enough to hear you saying I love you to your beloved boyfriend.
Mika : (annoyed)

Shinn walked towards Mika when Mika was about to stand up and when she turn around Shinn was infront of her,and he was standing really close to her.
Mika was shocked when she realized that Shinn was too close to her that she abruptly stepped back she didn’t realize that she stepped on air and almost fell to the ground but Shinn quickly pulled her ,but he pulled too hard that both of them fell and Mika landed on top of Shinn.

Shinn : (aching)

Mika quickly gather her senses and she tried to stand up but she had to do it slowly because she cant balance herself yet.But then suddenly Shouji and Ishia was walking from the other side and saw them on the floor.

Ishia : Oh my god,what happened

Mika quickly stand and arrange her hair and her clothes.

Shouji : What happened?Mika-san?Shinn?
Akira : Is everything alright?
Shinn : This clumsy Mika almost trip to the ground,again

Shouji helped Shinn to stand up and Ishia is looking at both of them,she  realized Mika’s face is turning red.

Ishia : (chuckles) Becareful next time Mika-san.You would now know what will Shinn do if you tripped on him again.
Shinn : Ishia-san.
Ishia : hohohoho,come lets go Shouji.Let the youngsters have their time
Mika : What did she mean by that.
Shinn : (looking at Mika)
Mika : What?
Shinn : You’re welcome?
Mika : (sigh) fine,thank you.

Shinn was looking at Mika without blinking because for the first time Mika’s hair is untied and Mika probably have not realized that.Mika probably tied her hair quite loose that the hair band could have fall off her hair.

Mika : Now what?
Shinn : (smiles)
Mika : Why are you looking at me like that.
Shinn : Nothing,it’s just that your hair is longer than I thought.
Mika : My hair?

Mika looked at her long hair dangling at her shoulder and quickly picked her rubber band and tie her long hair into a messy bun,just like how she would put her hair everyday.

Mika  : (ignoring Shinn)Lets go.
Shinn : (chuckles)

Mika : Shut up.Suzu is already outside.Lets go.
