Aoi Kurokawa is 14 years old, in his 2nd year in middle school which will soon end. He is getting some minor roles in acting now and then but is mostly immersed in modeling, which he doesn't like because it doesn't help with the revenge he is so thirsty for. 

He still has his weird obsession with paper towels. The only thing that didn't change. His biggest insecurity was his height which he was hella insecure of but he didn't show it. At all. But, it did annoy him. Unlike his Mom or sister, he couldn't reach the middle shelf of their book racks.

As he was a teenager with schedules, he was given his own phone better than his previous one which was like his mother's second. The first thing he did was create an Instagram under "Kurokawa._.aoi_" and a line account as the other usernames were already taken. He went over to his old account as Kai and searched for the picture of his 'beloved' who still has his heart.

No not his idol.

His beloved from past life.

Aside from this his and his sister's popularity shot. He for mostly modeling and Akane for her acting skills as a fellow member of Lalalai Theatrical company. Aoi still tended to hold himself together giving his average at the plays. Deep down he knows, he is doing this for his revenge and others are doing it for their ambitions. Akane was still a member of the agency but after the incident, when he was 11. He decides that he is getting nowhere near his revenge and requests his mother that he be a 'Guest member' of Lalalai Theatrical meaning he can join other agencies and meet other older people who may or may not be Ai's close friend or her 'one'. 

Due to the rise of Akane's fame, her manager made them join classes given by the agency, other than the acting classes needed for the stars. Akane pushed Aoi with her to the classes.

The classes such as risk education. Risk with the potential of hurting the person's entire career. It can be as small as a mistake in telling dialogues or as high as getting yourself butchered throughout social media for a small misunderstanding. There are many ways the actors may expose themselves to the judgemental world if they don't be careful enough. 

It was mostly these classes they did but the agency gave extra classes for the teens, especially about health and physical education classes which are normally given to many middle schools and high schools there but for the sake of the young actors and actresses with less education it is given. It is also one of the primary stuff to know considering how fucked the entertainment world is.

Akane took notes of these things very sincerely as the other kids did the same and Aoi...he is as always sleeping at the back of the class. Her manager often scolded him and Akane needed to explain to him.

Luckily it was just a short course of 4 months. Other than that, everything was okay.

Just his usual, cycle to school, sleep, go to studios for photos, cycle home. And, Akane got him the cycle to make it easy for him to come and go to places. 

In school, Aoi kept to himself, as usual. His quiet demeanor and distant attitude led to the advanced version of a 'weird quiet kid' to a 'loner'. It didn't bother him. He had grown accustomed to it. He didn't care. All he cared was, 

Study.

Half a day leave school for modeling.

Night study.

Sleep like there is no tomorrow in a bone-wreaking manner.

But, right now, Aoi stood in the batter's box, gripping the baseball bat tightly in his hands, his eyes narrowing as he focused on the pitcher. It was snowing considering it was mid-February. Unlike past years, it was snowing less heavily this year.
