"are~ isn't it my little rose" saotome-sama called me to his office for some reason, on the way there, I met jinguji, a document in his hand.

He was about to come my way and swing his arm across my shoulder when I ducked and avoided his embrace while snatching the document in his hand.

"Eh?" He was caught off guard to what I just did

"Like I said, the last thing you or anyone would want to do is touch me or much less embrace, But more importantly is this.." I raised the document in my hand, his usual Playboy smile disappeared from his face as I mentioned the title..

"Japan boys collection, it's big step for STARISH in the uta pri award, Don't let your personal emotions ruin it" I 'advised' him---well more like warned actually, I threw the documents toward him, he caught it with one hand

"Got it" he sternly said as he glared at the paper.

Jinguji financial group..

"Miss harunaaa, I'm glad you came!" Saotome-sama said as he danced and twirl on his desk.

"What do you need from me, saotome-sama?" I asked, ryuuga-kun stood up from his seat, standing beside me.

"Miss haruna, I want you to start in your......vocal recovery rehabilitation" vocal recovery rehabilitation? What's that?

" What?" I asked, Ryuuga-kun handed me a piece of paper, I looked at it, it was a schedule of vocal exercises? Don't tell me...

"Yesssss, You, haruna, is going to singggg agaaaaiinn!!" Saotome-sama shouted, I almost had the urge to crumple the paper in my hand.

"What are you trying to do" I glared straight at him, he only gave me a grin before pulling out a smoke bomb from his pocket and throwing it--and he disappeared, typical!

"Ryuuga-kun, what's this?" I turned my glaring eyes to the teacher beside me.

"It's just some vocal exercises haruna, Your throat isn't fully healed yet, I know you hate this but... Your voice will be wasted away if we just let it stay like this" he said, I turned my back on him, walking toward the door.

"it's best if we just let it waste away, it will do us no good after all"

Once.. I was a fire burning deep into the dark abyss of despair, All I knew was how to survive, all I knew was to burn anyone who tried to approach me,
I burned everyone to ash, crushed everyone who appose me to dust, trampled on their dreams, their hope and their.... Friendship...

And yet even though I received so many hate, love, envy and sadness from my rivals, from fans and staff... I still felt nothing, I felt no hatred when my rivals hated me, I feel no love, I don't feel envy and I don't understand sadness..

"Runa-chan?" Sitting still on a bench as I watched the water ripple, the setting sun reflected on the sky giving it an orange hue, the water shined under the light.

"Ruka?" Ruka approach me with a concern look, she sat beside me, setting her stuff on her lap before looking up to met my eyes.

"I heard from tsukimiya-sensei.... About the vocal rehabilitation president assigned you in" she softly said, I looked away from her eyes, couldn't take the worry and care she have in her eyes.
