“First, about the POP thing….I was almost certain it was you on this one.”
“Eh.”
Kifune san tried to explain the situation to me again, but…..unexpected words made me let out a questioning voice.
Why…..?
Why is that……?
There was nothing that could have exposed me, was there?
When I was puzzled, Kifune san smiled bitterly.
“In those mutterings, it was publicly known where the store was, and it was within your area of activity. I heard from Nanami chan that you work at such a store. She didn’t tell me which store, though.”
Ah. I see.
Huh? But I thought she had heard about the POP before I became friends with Kusunoki.
“Of course, I didn’t ask her because I knew it was you. That was just a coincidence.”
“I understand.”
I guess she knew that much….or she didn’t know it was me.
“I was only aware that it was you when I met you last week. ….I would have known if you had that kind of passion.
I”‘m very flattered, but.”
I never thought I’d be recognized by the amount of passion. ……Don’t tell me my account was even found out ! I’m thinking too much !
“I understand that, but why did you all come? Why didn’t Kifune san just come……?”
“That’s…..well, I thought Nanami chan would be happy.”
“Hm?”
Not understanding what she was saying, I looked next to me and saw Kusunoki looking at me with a slightly red face. Eh, so cute I love it.
“…Uh, yeah. I’m happy. Um, when I thought Yukito kun made that POP. I’m so happy.”
“I feel like I’m gonna burn out because I’m doing so much.”
I’m happy that the POP reached my favorite idol, and I’m also happy that she’s happy with it.
“Also, it seems like the two of them were also curious about Yukito kun. There’s also a new POP. This time, I’m planning to have Kasumi chan post it on social media.”
“…That’s what the store manager says.”
When I see the manager, she smiles. It was a good thing that I met Kusunoki….but if that wasn’t the case, there would be deaths. I’m gonna die.
“That’s why we came. I was lucky that all three of them were free today.”
“I understand completely.”
Satisfied, Kifune san nodded her head and smiled the same smile that she had just shown me.
“Then let’s finish the explanation and let’s have a look at it.”
“Eh, ah…..you wanna see?”
Wait a minute.
I’m not too proud of this POP though. I exploded so much that I thought I could fill the world with love.
“I heard it’s his masterpiece this time.”
“Stop it, manager ! Don’t say that !”
“I was surprised when I saw it too. Look forward to it.”
I was hoping that one day it would be good enough for my favorite idol to see it. I was actually happy to see the one that was so popular.
I guess you could say that it’s different to be able to see them directly—-
“Fufu, I’m looking forward to it.”
“An idol smile is worth more than 10,000 gold…..”
Yeah. I’ll give up.
So, the manager took out a big piece of paper. That’s the one I wrote on. It’s already laminated. It’s going to be unveiled from today, so it’s only natural.
“Oh, it’s big—eh?”
Kifune san”s eyes widened and she froze. Then the three of them followed suit.
“…….Amazing. This is.”
“Wow ! Amazing !”
“Is this the PV you’ve been working on, or is this a live…..subplot?”
“Yeah, I’m doing it according to the terms and conditions on the official site. And I’ve also posted the QR codes for the music videos and live performances that are available for free on video sites.”
It is easier to be seen this way than posting URLs.
“I’m surprised someone noticed this ! The clock in the back of the video shows the time when [Suh] first started their radio show ! When manager san told me about this, I thought they would never notice !”
“This is also amazing…..from the PV where the three of us wore costumes with animal motifs.”
“The one where I’m Kasumi chan’s favorite animal, Tsumiki chan is my favorite animal, and Kasumi chan is wearing a stuffed animal motif of Tsumikik chan’s favorite animal. ….I answered that in a magazine a long time ago.”
“It was our first interview, so I thought no one would notice.”
‘In fact, it seemed like each person had a favorite animal.”
The rationale and other aspects are well written. I have been collecting all the magazines that [Suh] has been in.
I was a little reluctant to tell them this earlier, but I’m glad they’re surprised.
“W-when did you notice these little stories? Do you post this on social media or something?”
“I don’t post them there. I don’t have much desire for self-approval. ….I just put them on because I didn’t want them to go unnoticed.”
I was hoping that someone would notice it and post it on social media, and that it would get a lot of buzz and increase the number of views of the song from a year ago. Unfortunately, no one noticed.
“The time it was noticed is also variable. Some were noticed within an hour or so of it being posted, others only recently.”
“That’s great ! I’m glad you’ve noticed so many !”
“I’m honored.”
I’m glad you two are pleased. I wonder if Kusunoki is pleased to hear that.
I thought so and looked—Kusunoki was crying, looking at POP.
“W-what, uh, Kusunoki?”
“…Eh, w-what is it?”
“I mean…..was there something you didn’t like?”
At that point, Kusunoki seemed to realize for the first time that she was crying, and wiped her cheek with her hand.
“A-ahaha, s-sorry. I just thought that was…amazing. It makes me happy to think that you love me this much.”
Kusunoki reached out and stroked one of the sentences.
“…I’m happy to see this kind of consideration.”
There you will find a message that says, [If you like, you can tweet on social media with the hashtag ‘I love Nanami chan !’]
“…Mou ! Yukito kun is really good at making us happy.”
“Fufu, seriously. I’m really happy, Yukito kun.”
“Thank you ! Yukto kun !”
“Is this paradise, where I can have my favorite idols call my name?”
I love everyone so much that it’s going to be a big deal. I’m about to burst out with emotion and cry, so let’s be serious.
“Kifune san. How do you like it?”
“…I think it’s so amazing that I want to be generous with it. This is all you have, right?”
“What are you talking about? There’s more….this is just a selection of my small stories.”
Kifune san looked at me with an expression I had never seen before. And the manager proudly averted her chest.
“Fufu, Kyoka. My part-timer is amazing, isn’t it?”
“A bit to the point that I want to pull him out as our PR person.”
“Please don’t recruit my talented part-timer. He’s contributing a lot to our sales.”
Oh. I’m glad to hear the manager say so. Was I contributing properly?
I looked over the POP again to make sure there were no typos. Then, Kifune san nodded her head in satisfaction.
“It’s more than I imagined. I’ll bring it up later. That’s good, Yukito kun.”
“I made it for that purpose. Please.”
“Thank you. ….Now they should take action.”
“Hmm?”
They? Who?
Shesaid something I don’t understand, but that’s it for POP for now.
……Now. I’ve overdosed from fanboying, let’s go home. I feel like the three of them are staring at me, but I’m sure it’s just my imagination.
It’s just my imagination !
