It's been a week since Giyuu's interview, and well, that chaotic day. Shinobu finally narrowed down the applicants, Giyuu took the crown.

His phone rang, Giyuu quickly answered it.

Giyuu Tomioka ; Hello?

Shinobu Kocho (Kocho Company) ; You're hired. I sent you the details of everything via text, you're first modeling shoot with us is on the 22nd. You're gonna be promoting our new product launch, and attending the launch gala.

Giyuu Tomioka ; Sounds like a plan. Anything else?

Shinobu Kocho (Kocho Company) ; I sent you 4 digital tickets, one for you and the other 3 are for anybody you wish to bring to the gala. Dress formally!

Giyuu Tomioka ; Alright. Thank you. Bye now.

He hung up.

Giyuu walked in nervously to the set of his first photoshoot for the brand? Why was he nervous? No idea. He's done this a million times before, this is just the first time under Kocho's.

Kocho's is like the main company of several other owned brand. All run by the non-other Shinobu Kocho. Her family is considered new-money, well connected, but the Kocho sisters stayed humble throughout their entire lives because of their middle class upbringing.

Kocho's owns many brands, Kocho Medicine & Hospitals (mainly run by Kanae Kocho), Kocho & Co, aka the Chanel of Japan. KochoxDew, their skincare line. The list goes on.

Giyuu on the other hand, born into a prestigious family. The Tomiokas. He's never been snobby, more so antisocial. Sabito & Makomo are the few people that aren't his sister he can talk to. Giyuu Tomioka has many fangirls, from his Movies/TV Shows and brand partnerships. Most people who have worked with him say he's the complete opposite of what he is on TV, never meet your heroes I guess.

He sat down in his dressing room, while the makeup artist came to touch up his face. Nothing too heavy like if he was a female idol, but most males in this industry wear makeup to accentuate their natural features.

A knock on his dressing room's door, his makeup artist ran to open it. "Ms. Kocho." He greeted as the CEO walked in.

"Thought I'd stop by to see our new company image." She smiled. "How's everything going on your first day?"

"It's going fine."

God, talking to this guy was so awkward and difficult. This caught Shinobu off-guard, since he seemed so natural and charismatic at the interview. 'Never hire an actor...they're the best liars.'

He got changed, and the shoot began.

"GIVE ME SEXY! GIVE ME BEAUTIFUL! GIVE ME CHARMMMMM!!" The photographer hyped up. And so, Giyuu did exactly what he was asked to do.

'This guy is so weird...he's so natural in his work. But talking to him is like talking to a wall.'

"Is your skin, dry, flaky, and irritating you? Try the KochoxDew Butterfly serum, made to illuminate your face, and your day." Giyuu read his commercial lines into the camera. He thought it was cheesy.
