Dream Star 312 I Think I Have An Answer Now

When Yori got off the phone, her emotions were rather complicated.

Even if that's the case, that conversation was rather bland, wasn't it? Maybe she should have something more. But how could she have possibly done so after hearing all that? Ameno wasn't kidding when he said that the Ageha he knew was shy and meek. But huh, couldn't she have at least said more words than that? In the first place, Yori was never good at comforting people, hence what happened just now. Was she too blunt? It was the first time she heard the proud Yos.h.i.+kawa Ageha act in that manner, that Yori ended up speaking bluntly.

A woman who was once so proud and acting high and mighty, to think that she ended up breaking down. It surprised her. The 'accident' is something not many people know about. But the media like to gossip; there are those who wish to stir up trouble. Maybe it's a good thing Yos.h.i.+kawa isn't responding to Lila's messages. If Yos.h.i.+kawa contacted her, then the media would find her, and the same would go for Lila. However, Yos.h.i.+kawa Ageha is an essential person to Lila. Perhaps she ought to have done something.

"Uh, Kogami?"

"Hold on Tachibana, I'm thinking of all the possible routes and options I could have gone through there," Maybe she messed up at the very start. If she greeted her differently, at least asked her how she is then maybe they could have spoken more to each other. Yeah if she started with a standard greeting instead of bursting into the topic then for sure, this wouldn't have happened. For starters, "Uh, but I'm sorry about your phone. I shouldn't have just taken it," Yori apologized.

Miya laughed, "It's fine. Besides what you did just now was enough. "

"No, no, I should have said more."

"It was enough. Because even with me she hasn't spoken that much."

"What about Kizaki-san?"

Miya shook her head, "Right now, she finds it awkward to talk to Kizaki. Especially after those results."

"And you? Tachibana, did you never think of becoming the center?"

"Impossible impossible. In the first place, the one I admired and respected before those two was Agehsama. I never intend to aim for Etoile4's center. All I wanted was for the group to blossom, even without our senpais. What you said just there was good, even if we aren't number one."

"Ah, that's . .. Because I've never really thought of ranking and position."

"I know, you made your debut so randomly like that I was starting to think that those who end up affiliated with Moonlight agency are individuals who don't think about time and place. "

Her sweatdropped, "Putting me on the same level as those guys is somewhat. . ."

To which Miya merely laughed, her gaze softening.

"s.h.i.+buya performance center, s.h.i.+buya ax, JCB Hall, Yokohama arena, Yoyogi Gymnasium, Seibu dome, super Saitama arena, TOKYO down, Nissan stadium - in just the span of 4 and a half years we have been able to perform in all these areas. Our stages may not be as grand as our senpai's, and in terms of ability, we may never beat them. However, we've come along way.. Everyone believes the only reason we've come this far is because of Ageha. That's why we are waiting for her to return on her own will."

So that's how it is. Indeed like she just said, DArk probably wouldn't have gotten this far in such a short amount of time had it been someone else standing in that center spot. Yori knew she could relate to those feelings.

". . Us also, if. .if it wasn't Lila leading everyone; then we wouldn't have gotten this far."

"En. They're the same after all aren't they? That's why with Lila too, as long as you all believe in her then it's alright."

Yori scratches her face, "Was it that obvious?"

"Well, you looked utterly nervous in your interview . . . "

Gah, she probably made a weird face, and it was a live broadcast too.

"Yori-chan did you make your decisions? For the teams? "

Oh. .., "Are you offering?"

"What's with that a ritual? But it's true; I thought it would be nice to stand on stage with you again. "

" . . We had that performance earlier this year," Yori pointed out.

"You know that's not what I meant," Miu trailed off, "It truly is funny, that I'm asking you this. Because I thought we would never get along with each other."

"You and me both. But, that was because of Lila, wasn't it?"

Miu laughed, "Although, that was a nice little war. We should have made an official rivalry."

"No no, if we did that the press would have been annoying."

"Eh, you think so? They make up good article names. .."

Yori sends her a doubtful look. Really, she too would never have thought it to be possible. To get along with Tachibana Miu. At the end that is also because of Lila, isn't it?

"Miu, let's work together again," Yori said, extending her hand out.

"The pleasures all mine."

….
After she parted ways with Miu, Yori knew she had to return to the party. However, before she could enter the doors, somebody grabbed hold of her wrist and pulled her aside. Is it an enemy? Yori shook her head; she doesn't sense any malice from this person. Then, who could it be? Yori turned her head and spotted familiar pale hair, "Ah?!! Soichiro?"

Why didn't he just speak up? She almost had a heart attack there. Then again, since it's him, he's definitely pulling some kind of prank on her. Why does this man like joking around so much? It's not healthy at all. A deep sigh pa.s.sed her lips.

"Hey?"

"..."

Realizing he was quiet, Yori frowned. What's wrong? It's then when she felt how warm his hands on her wrist were. Ahhh?!!!

.....

- One of the rooms in the dome -

It was a struggle to carry him back here; thankfully, she ran into Hamano Mikami who helped her here. When she saw Kanehera Yumeko too, Yori wanted to say something to the girl. The girl's training schedule is entirely different from her, so she doesn't see the girl unless it is during tournaments. Yori wanted to say something, anything. She knew about the conflict the girl had with Lila at last. Jae-hee told her everything, and she wanted to advise the girl what to do. Lila isn't angry. Yori recalled their conversation at the dome very well. Her friend isn't mad, but right now it isn't a priority for her.

"Thank you," Yori thanked the doctor, who nodded and quickly left. She deeply sighed and walked over to the man on the bed.

Unbelievable, a 39°c fever and he was walking around speaking to people in his condition? Why did he even come here? Suddenly a sudden thought came to her mind, now that she thought about it. Lila is like this, too whenever it comes to work. She always tries to attend when she is sick. It seems like Karas.h.i.+ma Haruka has the same mindset. Yori suddenly felt guilty. Look at all these big-shot people overworking themselves and yet look at her. Even though they are in a high position, the three don't stop even once.

In contrast, her who has only just returned to the entertainment industry this year. She hasn't been putting in much effort. Yori didn't think she had to. She's always been the type of person to take everything at her own pace.

However, that sort of att.i.tude will not do in this industry. This whole time what she has been doing? Even this guy who has such a laid back att.i.tude is a hard-working person. Yori closed her eyes; she has to be more serious. Otherwise, it would be useless for her to stay by Lila's side.
