Oshi no ko: Mist of lies

Prologue

When we are children the world appears to us as a vast land full of mysteries that we are ready to discover, we are innocent; we are pure. As we grew up we came to learn the actual truth about life, we are insignificant every action we take is nothing more than nothing in the big scheme of things, life is nothing but a casualty we just go lucky it happened here.

Yet we, as humanity, always tried to reach the peak of what we could do yet perfectly knowing that it would mean nothing and that it would lean to nothing. Because, we ignore that or we just give motivation to it.

I tried that too, but failed. Completely.

I tried to be the best highschool student in Japan, but failed I was barely average.

My father even disconnected me from the rest of the family, I myself have no special traits.

I'm around 1.70 cm tall, I'm physically weak or average; my hair are short and black, with bangs that reach just below my eyes. In other words: no personality.

I have just finished school today, I'm going straight to my apartment and then sleep, I don't care anymore about everything else.

That's is all I think.

I walk slowly on the long streets of the city, as I do so I hear my phone ringing,

As I pick up the call I hear a familiar voice.

"Niko. It's me."

"Director Shiro."

"I hope you have finished with the  props list, I want them as soon as possible."

'Damn, I forgot about it.'

"Sure boss, on your desk in three hours."

'What a pain. Why me?'

With annoyance I proceed to go home and spend the whole evening compiling the document.

As I went to the All stars studios later that night I see a familiar face.

"Himekawa."

As he I call out for him, he then turns around to face me.

"Agito. Long time no see. How are you?"

"I'm good, thanks."

Taiki Himekawa, Lala Lai Theatrical Company stage actor.

The All stars and the Lala Lai worked together long ago, and I as well helped with the props. He is a nice guy.

"What are you doing around here. Are there some big jobs that I don't know about?"

I ask while looking at his face.

"No, I was around here just to meet a friend."

Eyes straight, tone concise and direct. He's telling the truth.

"That's cool. I have to go now, see you soon."

I say so as I walk to my director office.

As I enter the room I immediately notice a woman, I'd say around her 40s.

Strawberry - blonde hair and pretty skin.

"Hello Niko, I see you have brought the props compilation. Here is Miyako Saitou President of Ichigo Production, Inc. "

"Nice to meet you Mrs. Saitou."

As I get closer to place the documents I take a quick look at Mrs. Saitou.

Despite her good looks and being the president of an important agency like the ichigo production she has quite the average clothes and In those soft eyes I can see something motherly, a stressful look together with the fact that she has been playing with her fingers meaning she has to manage most of the big stuff causing her much stress.
