Your POV

Once school was done for the day, I couldn't hold back my excitement. After all, today is my first day of the job, and I want to get to CiRCLE as soon as possible. As I got to CiRCLE, I found Marina-san waiting for me, and she smiled at me.

"Hey, look who it is." She grinned.

"Good afternoon, Marina-san." I said. "I'm ready to get to work."

"Well, that's good to know."

She got up and gave me a work uniform.

"Here, put this on, and come back."

"Okay."

I did what she wanted me to do, and I took the work uniform into the changing room, and I started changing into it. I just hope it fits me.

A few minutes later...

I came out of the changing room, and I was wearing my work uniform for the first time. I was wearing all black with the CiRCLE logo on front of the shirt. It does fit me really good, and I can get used to wearing something like this everyday.

"How do they feel? Not to tight, right?" Marina asked.

"Yeah, they feel great."

"That's good. Now before we get to work, I'm going to show you around, and let you know how we do things around here." She said.

"Sounds like a good idea."

20 minutes later...

Marina was good as her word. She gave me a tour around the live house. She showed me the studio room, the music hall, the lounge where we had our interview at, and the cafe right outside where we can take our breaks and such.

"Well, what do you think of CiRCLE so far?" She asked.

"I have a feeling I'm going to like it here." I said.

"That's good to know." Marina replied and grinned at me.

"So, what do we do first?" I asked.

"I think the first thing we should do is get the studio room ready for Poppin' Party." She said.

"Poppin' Party?"

"Yeah. They're one of the girl bands who come here to practice their instruments." She said.

"Oh, I see."

"And they should be here any moment now..."

As if right on cue, the doors to CiRCLE were opened, and five girls walked in. This must be Poppin' Party. But after looking at them for a bit, I recognize one of the members from that group. It was that girl I saw a few weeks ago.

"Marina-san! We're here to use the studio room!" One of the girls shouted. She's quite hyper, isn't she?

"Ah, hi everyone. The studio room will be ready for you shortly." Marina calls out.

The girl who I saw me earlier looked at me, and her eyes widened as she did. I guess that means she recognizes me.

"Hey, I remember you... You work at CiRCLE now?" She asked.

"Yeah, I do." I answered.

"I see."

"Oh, do you know him, Arisa-chan?" Another girl asked.

"I guess you can say that."

"I should introduce myself." I said. "My name is (Y/N) (L/N), it's nice to meet you all."

"Well hi there! My name is Toyama Kasumi! Nice to meet you!"

"Hello, my name is Hanazono Tae."

"Ummm... h-hello... my name is... Ushigome Rimi."

"Hi there. My name is Yamabuki Saaya, but you can call me Saaya."

"And I guess I'm last, huh? My name is Ichigaya Arisa, a pleasure to meet you."

So this is Poppin' Party, huh? Quite an interesting group of girls, and the last girl who introduced herself is named Arisa... That is a good name, but I feel like she is giving off some yandere vibes.

Arisa's POV

Popipa got into the studio room and we began to dive into our rehearsals. We wanted to practice our new song since Kasumi is having a hard time getting a hang of it. But to be fair, Rimi mentioned the same back at school.

We've practiced for an hour or so, but we couldn't make any progress...

"Ugh! Why is this song so hard?!" The frustrated Kasumi asks.

"I know how you feel, Kasumi-chan." Rimi said. "Doing the bass part for this song isn't easy either."

"O-Tae! Please help me!" Kasumi begged.

"Alright, which parts do you need help with?" She asks.

"Let's see..."

Kasumi begins to show O-Tae which parts of the song she was struggling with. I didn't have to tolerance to sit through her complaining. Saaya notices this, though.

"Hey, Arisa, how about we step outside and take a break?" She suggested.

"Yeah, good idea."

And with that, Saaya and I stepped outside, and headed to the cafe outside of CiRCLE.

Arisa's POV

Once Saaya and I made it outside, we ordered something and sat down at one of the tables outside. It was a nice sunny day out, even though it's September, and I was enjoying it a lot. Well, that is until Saaya brought up something I didn't expect her to ask.

"So, you already know about (Y/N)-kun, right?" She asks.

"Oh, yeah, I guess." I replied awkwardly.

"Oh yeah? Where do you know him from?" She asks again.

"Oh, I... bumped into him in the neighborhood a few weeks ago." I replied, embarrassed that I am even talking about this.

"I guess you could say fate has brought the two of you together." She chuckled.

"Yeah, I guess."

Then I realized what she just said.

"Huh? Where do you get off saying stuff like that?!"

"Oh come on, in a way, it's very romantic, wouldn't you say?"

I blushed even harder and forced myself to look away.

"I... rather not respond to that..."

After all, there is no way that this is fate. It's just a coincidence... right?
