*心の絆* [ON HOLD]

Chapter One

It's a Tuesday in Japan. Good weather, with people walking out of their houses to their workplaces. Everybody is still dreading that it's still a weekday. Some people just wants to go out and have fun, probably go out in a trip. But for this person, he might have the greatest trip that will change his life forever.

With a staggering high energy for today, he walked up towards the doors of his agency, ready to meet up with the day’s tasks for him. With a sweet and genuine smile, he greeted the staffs who work in 81Produce, including his seniors and also his juniors. He took the elevator to get to the fourth floor of the building in where his manager has been waiting for him for about fifteen minutes already. As soon as he got to the designated floor, the doors of the elevator opened and revealed an annoyed manager.

“Where was the time we talked about Takuya?”

His manager stood in front him, arms crossed, looking so genuinely pissed at him. Eguchi took a step out of the elevator and scratched the back of his neck, embarrassed.

“Well, I actually had to clean my house this morning because of Nobu’s chocolate energizer which he gave me yesterday at the rehearsals. I’m full of energy so that’s why I got to clean the house after a month!”

Eguchi explained. His manager just shook his head at the person in front of him and chuckled.

“That’s the first time I heard you say that, Takuya. I could have recorded that.”

His manager teased him and walked towards a meeting door. Eguchi, pouting and embarrassed, followed his manager to the same door.

They sat at a small empty meeting room, his manager scrolling through his iPad, looking for Eguchi’s schedules. As soon he found them, he looked up to the tall man who is on his phone, scrolling through Twitter.

“So apparently for this week, you’re going on a trip.”

As soon as Eguchi heard the sentence, he perked up from his phone and raised an eyebrow.

“A trip? For what, when, and where?

His manager looked back to his iPad and then to Eguchi.

“Basically, you’re going to have a photoshoot for a voice actor magazine. It’s a special issue and in this volume, they’re gonna feature you.”

Eguchi’s eyes went wide when he heard about that. That’s new.

“I’m actually surprised. Why’d they picked me?”

“Let me finish?”

“Ah yes, please continue, manager-san.”

His manager looked back to his iPad again.

“It’s scheduled this Friday and the place of the photoshoot is… at a penthouse in Nagoya.”

His manager said, looking up at the tall giant. Eguchi’s eyes are staring right at him, eyes sparkling, and his mouth agape. His manager raised his eyebrows at him and waved a hand in front of his face. Eguchi blinked a couple of times before composing himself up, fixing his glasses.

“Eh? Nagoya? Isn’t that… far?”

Eguchi asked his manager as he tried to hide a smile.

“Yeah, but that’s what the production wants to do. I can’t say no about it.”

His manager said and handed him his iPad, letting him show his schedule. But then, the smile that is slowly forming on Eguchi’s mouth perked up a memory in his manager’s mind.

“Ah, right. You need to come with me for this trip this time. I don’t want the same thing happen to you again.”

Eguchi bit his lip and closed his eyes. He had forgotten that his manager still hasn’t completely forgave him about the “accident”. He had the same schedule, a photoshoot and a trip going to Osaka. He wanted to go out and be with himself for the first time, and his manager trusted him that he’ll get to Osaka safe and complete. But what happened was he got lost driving there and was spotted by a group of school girls. He tried to stifle a laugh from the memory.

He looked at his manager who has a deadpan expression, staring at Eguchi. His only response to the glare is a peace sign.

“I’m sorry about last time.”

He softly said to his manager who was still throwing daggers towards his direction. If his manager’s eyes literally threw daggers, he would have been dead already. His manager furrowed his eyebrows at the tall male.

“Don’t think about going there all by yourself again, I swear to God.”

His manager warned him, eyes cold like the ice caps of Mount Fuji, a very dark aura emiting around him, and his glare sending death himself. Eguchi gulped at his manager's threatening words and aura and nodded slowly. He doesn't want his manager get mad at him again, but he has this thrill inside him that once he focused on that thrill, no one can stop him anymore.
