    As a upcoming female idol that belongs to Shining Agency, I tend to make sure to follow every rule given to me. Especially the no love rule. I don’t want to mess up and fall in love with someone, since it could cause harm to my career. I’ve loved singing since I was little but my father has always been sick. He always wanted me to do what makes me happy and not worry about him.

    I still worried though and as I got older I decided on becoming an idol. So I can do something I dearly and truly love while also being able to get more than enough money to help my father as well. I let out a light-hearted sigh and look up as I continue to walk down the sidewalk of the busy street with a composition in my bag.

    Happily I smile to myself as I take a drink from the tea I ordered. I look over at the now completed song as I make one more adjustment to the lyrics. Once pleased with them I stand up and put everything back in my bag. As I sling my bag over my shoulder and grab my cup getting ready to go throw it away. I accidently bump into someone and end up throwing my drink all over them.

    “I-I’m so sorry! I didn’t mean to! Let me grab some napkins!” I say as I give them a quick bow then start heading off to find some napkins. They grab my wrist causing me to turn around. In front of me is a male with brown hair and beautiful amethyst colored eyes. He smiles at me despite me knocking my drink onto him.

    “It’s okay, you don’t have to feel sorry. I was the one that bumped into you,” he says to me in a way I wasn’t expecting. I was expecting a lot of cursing and a lot of hate. Instead I get these kind words from a man I don’t even know.

    “W-Well, at least allow me to pay you for your ruined clothing. I was still part of it after all,” I say back to him but he shakes his head at my words.

    “You don’t have to do anything. It will easily wash out,” he says again making me feel even more hopeless. I think of ways that I can help him so I don’t feel so guilty about spilling my tea on him. Instead, he speaks up first, noticing my struggle.

    “I know, how about you accompany me to a store so I can get a new shirt?” He asks me which I instantly nod my head to in reply. As we make our way over to a nearby store I remember something that I should’ve done a while ago.

    “Oh! I’m (L/N) (Y/N). It’s a pleasure to meet you?” I say a little unsure if it was a pleasure to meet each other or not. He looks back over to me and gives me another kind smile.

    “It’s nice to meet you. I’m Otori Eiji,” he says responding to my introduction. I give him a weak, unsure smile as we finally enter the store. As soon as we enter I can tell that it isn’t an expensive store, but it also isn’t cheap either. I follow him as he goes over towards the male section of the store and picks out a shirt he’s fine with.

    It’s a plain navy blue shirt that he switches into in the changing rooms. When he comes out he has his dirtied shirt in his hands. He gives me another smile and I start blushing at how much he has given me during this short time with each other. I follow him some more over to the cash register and get my wallet ready to pay for it. I listen closely to the price they say and before he could make a move I whip out my card.

    The female happily takes it and allows me to pay for it, this makes me internally sigh in relief as I let my guilt go away. Apparently the shirt was on clearance so it was cheaper than normal. Honestly it makes me wonder if he knew I was going to do something like this. So once I get my card back I give him a glance, and find that he made no effort to take out his wallet or any money at all. I knit my brows together as he asks for a plastic bag for his old shirt.
