A sound of a violin played broke the silence.
"Ahh.. Morning it is" Sho opened his eyes and sighed. As he turned off his hand phone alarm he realized J wasn't there anymore. He was left alone.
Not long after that his hand phone gave another beep sound. It's a text message.

GOME I WENT OUT EARLY. GOTTA GO TO AN EARLY PHOTOSHOOTS. SEE YOU AT THE OFFICE THIS NOON. I MADE AN OMELETTE I LEFT IT ON THE KITCHEN COUNTER. ALREADY TOLD THE SECURITY  YOU'RE STILL IN SO DON'T WORRY ABOUT LOCKING THE DOOR.

"So he left me alone, when this is the first time for me to spend a night," Sho thought.
He gave a small laugh, and shook his head. Well, J is J indeed. He knew exactly how his character is.
His eyes were wandering to the kitchen counter. He did left a plate of omelette covered in a plastic wrap. He walked lazily to it and opened the wrapper. Grabbed a spoon nearby and began to scoop some and filled his mouth with it and smiled.
"Yum… J is a good cook"
Looking up to the patterned wall, he looked at the clock.
"Ah it's almost time, I gotta go"

The sun rose quicker than most people would probably thought. It's almost summer. The road in front of Johnny family club in the middle of Shibuya district was clearer than it was usually be.
A black car stopped slowly near the security post, the driver windows rolled down, a hand with a silver starred thick bangles came out and show his identity card.
"Ohaiyo Matsumoto san!" The security bowed down as the car passed by and continue running inside to the parking area.
Another car followed along on the back, this car didn't come in, it just parked on the side of the street and somebody came down from it. He was wearing a semi light brown pants. We could see his pair of thin calves clearly. He was wearing a pair of high boots and neon colored socks.
This person was so busy with everything he's got on his hands. One of the security approached him trying to help.
"Ohaiyo Aiba san, may I help you?"
"Ahh arigato," Aiba smiled. He's always been the most cheerful one. He handed some of his belonging to the security guard. Both of them rushed in together to the front part of the building. As he walked passed the security posts, Aiba waved happily with a big smile on his face.
Inside one of the corner of a room. A person in a blue jacket was sitting down. He closed his eyes. His hands and feet busily moving around. Once in a while we could see his lips pouted and muttered something. He was concentrating.
"Riida!" A voice called from behind.
Realized somebody's calling his name. He put down his headset and looked around. It's J calling.
"Ow. Ohaiyo" he exclaimed. Still with a pouted lips.
"Has Sho come yet?" J asked.
"Wakkannai… I haven't seen him." Ohno replied.
J looked at the watch on his hand, it's the brand new Rolex with a brown leather band fixed to his wrist.
"I thought he would finish early…" he muttered.

From the other room. They could hear two people laughed and joked around. Their voice were getting louder as these two figure approached those two people who were already there.
"Nino borrowed me his new manga, but he said I need to return it in two days. That's ridiculous!"
Ninomi laughed hard, a Nino kinda laugh, fresh and genuine. Riida smiled watching these two goofing around. But those laughs from these silly dorky couple seemed didn't change the air on J's face. His thick eyebrows were still fixed and frowned. He didn't even listen to Aiba's story, or to Riida's extra jokes even to Nino's shriek as Aiba pinched his arm hard.

He walked to the window and looked outside. Unlike before. His heart wished so hard that his big bro would be there as soon as possible.
"If I just told him about how I feel last night," he muttered. He remembered exactly the time when he began to feel awkward around Sho. That time in the dressing room. When he said hello and all J's reply was just nothing. He always remembered that. Apart of him felt so guilty of that response he shouldn't have supposedly given. But that was a long time ago. It's almost sixteen years since the incident. He couldn't do anything but carried on with his life.
"Hey, are you waiting for someone?" A voice behind his ears startled him. He looked back.
"Ahh it's you." Said J.
It's his buddy Toma. He's been busy lately. Just like him, but J thought he was enjoying his projects somehow.
"Are you going out again?" Asked J. He knew Toma was leading a new film.
"Yup. I'll be in Hokaido for a week. Be back next Thursday. Otsukarisamadeshita! Ja ne, I'll invite you for a drink as soon as I'm back!" He waved his hand and ran to his car.
Jun smiled and waved back. Thinking about his people in the studio he quickly rushed to the elevator. He needed to check for the songs for the next concert.

***
The green room was more quiet than before. It was a quite long wait. Sho leaned his head to the thick sofa he sat on. His hand phone beeped once. It's a text message.
"Aaahhh. J's been waiting for me" Sho sighed. He wished this meeting wouldn't take so long. But he's glad in two minutes everything will end.
