After practice with Sakura and the others, the next day after school.

I was supposed to meet with the manager……Kanabe san, who’s my sister invited.

Of course, I had heard about it beforehand and had gotten my parents’ permission, so the conversation went smoothly.

He told me that I would be in the same group as my sister and that he would even sign me to a formal contract as an actor.

However.—

“Eh !? A movie offer !?”

I was in one of the reception rooms in the “Fortissimo” building.

There, I unintentionally shouted out in surprise to Kanabe san.

“That’s right !”

Wait, we just officially agreed on a deal, didn’t we !? But isn’t this…..too fast !?”

Usually, when a contract has been signed, you start looking for work.

Either you talk to a manager and audition, or you look for work directly, or you get an offer. It could be a job that came into the office, or a job that you got by connecting directly with the right people.

So basically, you don’t get a job until a while after you sign a contract.

That being said, I had no idea that I would be offered the job the day before I work.

What would have happened if I was dissatisfied with the contract and had thrown it out?

“Do you remember, the director you met at ‘Ajimaro’ the other day?””

“Well, a bit….”

He gave me his business card, and there was no way I could forget about it since it was just a few days ago.

“He is a film director in his own right. It seems that he really liked Aoi kun, who he met before. He came to me directly.”

“I see….that’s why the timing is so perfect.”

I’m very happy to hear that.

I never thought that the ties that were connected before would appear in this way.

I was able to get along with Kisara, and I honestly think it was a good thing that my sister was able to hear it from there.

“T-that’s amazing, Aoi kun ! You’re working right away ! It’s not normal to have something like this !? You’re a monster of a monster !”

My sister who was listening beside me brightened her eyes.

I could tell by her expression and the sound of her voice that she was truly pleased.

It is strange to have someone like this next to you, because it feels as if something more than the joy you initially felt is rushing toward you.

Thank you, Nee san. So don’t kiss me on the cheek.

“When I received the offer, I was not sure if Aoi kun would be a member of our company, so I had to put it on hold, but now I can finally proceed. But of course, your opinion comes first. You also have schoolwork to take care of.”

As expected of “Fortissimo” to take such considerations into account for actors.

Sometimes, other agencies will just throw in a role as long as the schedule is open, so it’s easier to work with “Fortissimo” in terms of people and structure.

This is one of the reasons why I wanted to work for them.

And—

“Of course, I’d accept it.”

“I see ! I didn’t think you would accept it like we met before, but now I’m relieved !”

Kanabe san smiled happily and took out a booklet from his bag.

“I’ll have a proper discussion about the reward separately. But first, here’s the script you’re interested in.”

I picked up the script on the desk and my sister asked me to show it to her.

And don’t kiss me on the cheek like you’re just trying to be nice.

“I-I knowthat Yua chan is doting on her brother, but…..don’t tell me that’s how far their relationship has gone !?”

For all intents and purposes, it’s a one-way one-way relationship.

“Wow, that’s kind of an interesting title !”

“I can’t see very well with your face in the way though?”

“Well, I’ll read it for you !”

“I told you to get out of the way !?”

I pulled her body away from me and she puffed out her cheeks while sounding disappointed.

Even though I should have felt danger for my life, I can’t help but think that this kind of gesture is cute, so I can’t help but stick my tongue to my sister’s appearance.

(Well, now it’s the script, not my sister)

I took a moment to look at the script.

On the cover—

“[One Apple and Five Wolves]……?”

I tilted my head and at the same time I’m surprised.

After all, this title is the same as the one that Sakura will be in.

“Hm? Aoi kun, did you know about this?”

“W-well……I glimpse at the original work.”

My heart was pounding loudly, but I could barely cover it up.

If I say something like, [Because Sakura showed it to me] here, it might be a long story.

If the information was passed on without a face-to-face meeting, the problem of information leakage might be passed on to Sakura.

It would be safer not to bring it up.

“That’s unusual. This work is based on a shoujo manga, but Aoi kun is surprisingly an omnivore.”

“It’s rude, Kanabe san ! Aoi kun is fully herbivore !”

You’re the one who’s rude.

“Nee san, I’m not an omnivore in that sense. I’m an omnivore in terms of reading.”

“That’s right……you’re not an omnivore who eats girls at random. I believe you are truly a herbivore !”

“Do you realize that instead of not being able to catch up on the conversation, you are hitting with a dead ball?”

Sometimes I wonder if my sister loves me so much that she can be called a brocon.

Honest and straight words gouge my heart accurately.

“W-well……anyway, I’ll get back to you with the schedule and stuff, so from now on I want you to keep reading this script.”

“I don’t mind reading it, but what role am I going to play?”

If I’m a newcomer to the company, will I be in a minor role? No, but if I’ve been nominated by name, it might be a well known character.

I wondered which one it would be.

When I was a little nervous, Kanabe san smiled mischievously.

And then—

“Aoi kun’s role is—Eiji !”
