It has been a few days since Kagami’s debut as the lead in a movie was announced.
We set up an appointment by email to meet with Momo in 10 days to talk about the collaboration song, and Yanagi sent us an email stating, [We are so happy that Kagami sama is starring in the movie.]
Kagami once said to Yanagi, [I have no acting experience, are you sure you’re happy with me?] and lightly expressed his uncontrollable anxiety. Then, to summarize in a long sentence, she sent me an email saying, [Kagami sama is fine] so she can’t be mean to say that it wouldn’t be fine for me to do it, but…
“I’m worried. After all, it’s too heavy to play the leading role in my first movie…….”
A good director, an interesting original story, and a top-notch film crew.
The casting is full of the best and brightest, but if Kagami’s performance is so bad that it ruins the movie, it will be a complete loss.
I was even more worried because I know of several films in which the fun was reduced by 90% because of the acting ability of a single person.
[Are you free today?]
“Ah. I got a text from the manager.”
[What is it? Depending on the case, I’ll call the school to let them know I’m off.]
That reply was something that had never happened to Kagami before.
Kagami had prioritized time with his childhood sweetheart over work, and taking a day off from school was something that would never have happened.
But now that childhood friend is out of the picture, and high school life itself is not all that enjoyable. I have no confidence in my social skills, and I don’t have a future career outside of music, so there is not much point in going to school anymore.
[Don’t worry. I will pick you up from school at 5:00 p.m. today.]
[Roger that.]
Kagami’s manager chuckles at the same time, thinking how rare it is.
“(Are you going to take a break from school? In that case, that job and that job… No, I don’t want to get in trouble if I put in too much, so I’ll just have to wait and see…)”
If Kagami, who is already talented, has a lot of opportunities, wouldn’t he be the biggest and the best?
The manager’s heart was pounding with excitement at the prospect of Kagami’s unlimited potential.
◇
Kagami, who was put in his manager’s car and was in an off-mode with a uniform, messy hair, and dark circles, was heading towards a beautiful girl who seemed to be the embodiment of [innocence]
She was 23 years old, considerably older than Kagami, but she had an overwhelming aura of beauty that made him feel nothing of it.
“Ah, Nadeshiko san. Are you here on business?
“…..Why don’t you call me [sis] today?”
“I-I won’t call you that.”
I’m embarrassed. I’m not even related to her.
This person–Nadekoshiko Aoi, one of the hottest actresses today, said something like [Kagami kun is like a younger brother] in some variety show or music program, and when he called her [big sister] in a TV manner, she liked it. Since then, I have been forced to call her [sis] even in private ……
“Muu. Well, for now, do something about that sloppy look. I will help you.”
“Nadeshiko san is not an older sister, so could you just take the natural course and not try to come into the changing room !?”
“I-I’m not your sister…….ugh, hiks.”
Even though it was a straightforward performance, there were only tears in her eyes.
She is a very popular actress. Even in a skit like this, the quality is high.
To put it bluntly, the tears shed by a woman as beautiful as Nadeshiko were accompanied by a force of violence that made me understand that it was a blatant lie.
“I understand, Sis. Can you please wait there until the preparations are finished?”
“Of course, but Kagamiya kun is like a little brother to me, so I don’t mind if you speak to me as a friend.”
“Ah, geez ! I get it, SIs.”
I said that in a desperate tone and switched to on mode.
Kagamiya had always been weak to Nadeshiko.
That’s not surprising, as even though she’s my senior at the same agency, I’ve been indebted to her even before he became popular. Even Kagamiya, who was in love with his childhood friend and rarely showed up at launches, basically never refused Nadeshiko’s invitations.
But still, as a boy of my age, I have some resistance to call a woman as beautiful as Nadeshiko san [Sis] with a straight face.
“(She’s a nice person, but I’m not good with her…..)”
I’m feeling kind of out of sorts.
“Nadeshiko….Sis. Where’s your makeup artist?”
“I told her I wanted to do it and she said by all means.”
“The make up !?”
What are you doing? You’re abandoning your job. While thinking about this, Kagamiya resigned himself to the fact that it was just the usual thing.
As usual, his hands were cold and soft. The feel of your hair being combed and the touch of your makeup being applied are incredibly soothing, and you end up relaxing like a cat being stroked down the throat.
“Now that you mention it, why are you here?”
In the first place, Kagami didn’t even really understand why she had come to this place, just asking him, [Do you have time?] It doesn’t seem like it’s a photoshoot though
“Kagamiya kun, I hear you’ve been cast as the lead in a movie. But Kagamiya kun seems to be anxious about his first time acting, so I’m going to coach him.”
“Eh !? Nadeshiko san is going to coach me !?”
I had heard that they would prepare someone to coach me in acting, but I thought they would call someone who normally specializes in coaching.
“You mean, Sis……”
“S-Sis. I-I’m sure you’re busy. Are you okay?”
“I’m fine. I’m the main character…..or rather, I play the role of Ao !”
“(Heh. It would be perfect if she was Ao…)”
No, no, no, no. It is true that the novel that won an award has been made into a movie. It is not unnatural that the leading role is played by the most popular actress of the moment, Nadeshiko.
Even though Kagami is shy, he still seems able to act more naturally with someone he’s familiar with…
“Speaking of which. [Hekireki no Ao] is pretty naughty towards the end, but I wonder what the script will do? I wonder if it would be appropriate to stop at a kissing scene?”
Kagami felt his ears burning.
When I think back on it, the main character, Ao, is tied up with the big star she admires, and they begin to flirt quite a bit. I wonder how far they will go…and with Nadeshiko san?
Oh, man, oh no. Huh ! !
“Oh my. Kagamiya kun, is this your first time?”
“S-shut up.”
After Kagami’s makeup was done and his hair was done, he slowly walked out of the makeup room to get some fresh air in order to distance himself from Nadeshiko.
