I look up, only to see the familiar face of someone I know. Of the person who's face is EVERYWHERE in town. Of the person I was trying so hard to find. He put his arm down from my head and he takes a sip from the milkshake he was holding.

"You....", before I could think of anything to say, his face moves closer to mine.

"Call me Takashi. No honorifics needed", he whispers and after he finishes studying my face, he moves away again,"What's up? You are at the verge of tears. You wanted to see me this badly?"

Saying that jokingly, he gives me a childish smile, waiting to for me to explain the situation.

"T-Takashi, I...", I feel the eyes of everyone on me, eyes, which were looking down on me just a second ago, were now looking at me in shock, because I was talking with the super model on first name basis!

"Jay told me to pess on a message. But when I asked for you, she told me that 'you have no time for things like that' "

When I finish my sentence, I see the cheeky, childish smile disappear from his face without a trace. It turns into a sour, mad and gimm expression, which causes shivers to run down my spine. He turns to the woman, sitting behind her desk, frightened.

"Is that true?", he glared at her.

"Well,...yes. I thought you would be too busy to-"

"HUH!?", furious, he yells at her and now she was the one with tears in her eyes,"TOO BUSY!?"

A double door opens behind her and the woman from earlier, his manager, and some other man come out.

"What's with all this shouting?! What's going on here?!"

I hear the models and managers gasping. Is that the owner of this place? This is bad... he looks very very VERY annoyed. Is Takashi going to get into trouble because of me? I don't want that. Jay wouldn't want that! As I open my mouth to tell them it was all my fault and apologize, Takashi goes inside the room behind them and returns a few seconds later with a bag in his hand.

"The deal's over", with those words he grabs my arm and pulls me out of the building.

The last thing I see are the shocked expressions from the people who were making fun of us. I hear the owner of that place shouting,

"What do you mean by that?!? Where are you going!?", but we just keep on walking, without looking back at the place.

After sometime he lets go of my arm and my friends catch up to us. We enter a building and walk upstairs. All this time no one said a word and we walked in silence.

"Is that really ok? I mean you just drop everything like that and left...", Yuhei begins, a bit scared what his reaction might be.

He still seems to be in a bad mood and doesn't turn around to answer him. He just keeps on walking.

"It's fine. It's no big deal", he says calmly after a few seconds.

We reach the door and come to a halt. Takashi searches for the key in his bag and takes out a bunch of keys. He tries three different keys and I begin feeling uncertain if he even has the right key, but then the door opens and he tells us to come in.
