OVERSEAS MIRACLES
Chapter I
News Out of the Blue
"Eh?" shrieked the chestnut haired girl as if her voice disturbed the busy people of Japan.
"Why are you freaking out, Mogami-san? I expected you to jump over with your tears of joy after telling you this news." The high school principal said as he rubbed his chin amusingly with his fingers.
"Mogami-san, you deserve to have this academic award. Think about the advantages for your career! There are no other students in this campus who can acquire this grant but you. You have the qualifications to pass this and it's a thing that you could never say NO! It's just like a student exchange program, Mogami-san. It doesn't mean that you will study there in America forever. With this opportunity, you'll be exposed to a new environment that our country doesn't have and you'll gain more acting experiences out there! Mogami-san, we recommend you to take this offer!" Her class adviser urged with his strong pleading eyes, giving the thought that this is the best decision that she will ever made that will change her life.
"B… b… but… don't you think that there are studious and talented students that are better than me! Why do I get to deserve this since I'm just an amateur and unintelligent student in your campus! Plus, I just entered showbiz in not less than a year and I have a lot of things to learn to become a great actress!" she exclaimed in front of the principal, trying to prove her point that she's not eligible to receive the offer.
The principal coughed. " Mogami-san, please don't look down at yourself too much. All the things you said about yourself are definitely the opposite. Of course, we know that you're still new in showbiz but that doesn't mean that you're an unskillful actress. No wonder President Takarada fought hard to think about you allowing you to enter his agency. It seems he saw something special in you. I could say that you're a wonderful actress, Mogami-san. I have observed your works and there's no doubt that you did great in carrying your roles. That's why we are bestowing you this opportunity to you, Mogami-san. Aren't you supposed to be happy that we can only give this once in a lifetime opportunity to you? You know, some students act like dogs who wanted a treat as a reward of their hard works from their master just to have this opportunity in their grasp. Also, if you accept this offer then surely you will raise your standing as an actress to the top! The principal encouraged, doing his utmost reassurance to convince her that she's a unique individual who deserves to grab the opportunity without giving a second thought about it.
She blushed at the compliment that the principal gave her. In the deeper depths of her heart, honestly, she was so happy to know that she won an academic opportunity to study acting in abroad. She seemed to not believe on what she heard in the first place. This news gave her quite a shock which she never expected that a lifetime chance to change her life is waiting for her.
"Uhm… Can you give me some time to think properly about this matter? I think I have to have some self reflections until I can figure out the benefits I can get from it. It is really an honor to be selected to have this award and I will do more of my very best to meet the expectations of the people who are looking forward to my performance. Thank you very much for this." She said in a respectful manner as she bowed her head.
"Sure, Mogami-san. You should also think about this properly. I know you have some responsibilities that you have to accomplish and to fulfill. Also, one year is a very long time and staying there requires a lot of adjustment in many aspects. But let me remind you that this opportunity only came once in your life. It's a waste if you choose to refuse and you might regret in the end if that happens. Anyway, you are the top student in this campus. No one is near your class standing. Everything you did in this school is almost perfect. And that's the kind of qualification of a student who are worthy of this chance to study abroad." The principal said as he sat on his large thinking chair.
"It's true that you have to make some adjustments during your stay in abroad. But I believe that you will be able to cope up with America's environment in no time. Just think of the current skills you have. You can speak and understand the English language properly. Plus, I also know that you can speak talk using the American accent. Another thing, you can meet and gain a circle of friendship out there. I'm pretty sure President Takarada will be ecstatic about the news. We already contacted him before you came in here." Added the teacher.
*SCHOOL BELL RINGS*
"Now, look at the time, it's already time to go home. Well, I should be going first. I'll take my leave." The teacher left.
"I'm looking forward for your answer, Mogami-san" the principal reminded her with a smile.
"Yes, sir. I'll give you my answer after I give it a hard thought for it. Thank you very much for giving me this opportunity, sir." She gracefully bow down her head before she leave the principal's office.
"You're welcome, Mogami-san" the principal replied.
Outside the office, she began to walk to her locker to get her things.
"What a day. Come to think of it, it is very advantageous for me to take it." she gleamed to herself but in the end she gave out a heavy sigh and a frown replaced her happy face.
"If I leave for America, I might not have friends to talk to! What if my school life there will be much worse than here! Moko-san and Maria-chan is one and only friend in the whole world!" she thought in horror as more negative thoughts came into her mind, trying to take over her mind to make the decision to not to accept the offer and just settle in Japan forever. It just reminded her of her middle school where she was bullied by her classmates.
"What will I do! If I leave for America…., I'm not able to see Tsuruga-san, anymore!" her mind screamed at the thought. Her cheeks gave a tint of red shades of her considerations.
"Why Tsuruga-san, of all people? Kyoko, your such a dummy. Thinking of someone who is your senior!" she mentally scolded herself.
"I think I better tell him about this too or else he will get angry at me again! Gah! I don't want that to happen! I've been trying my hardest to gain little by little of his trust on me" she thought warily.
*VVVrrRR*
Her phone rang in the middle of her views and thoughts then she finally answered it.
"Moshi moshi, who is this?"
"I really hate you, Mogami-kun!" She kept her phone away from her ears because of the noisy voice of the person on the other line cried out loud.
"Eh, President Takarada? What is it?" she asked innocently.
"Mogami-kun, why didn't you save my phone number after I called you about you entering in high school before." He ranted on the other line.
"Gomen, President Takarada. I guess I forgot to save it before because of my excitement of entering high school. Heheh" she reasoned out. "What a lame excuse" she thought.
"Anyway, Mogami-kun, I assume that you heard the news from the principal. Am I right?" he asked.
"Yes, sir. He told me. It was really a surprise for me. I don't know what to say after that" she replied shyly.
"The principal just called me lately after your meeting with him, saying that you have doubts about this issue." He said.
"President, Its difficult for me to decide. I have a lot of things to accomplish and-" the president cut her words.
"Come to my office right away. We should discuss it here not through the phone. I will have Sawara-san cancel your errands for today. This topic should be talked about seriously and I want meet you after school." He requested.
"Yes, sir. I'm coming right away. I'm already on my way to LME" she answered without any questions.
"See you later, then, Mogami-kun" he said.
"Yes, see yah" she replied then she press the end button of her phone.
"Okay, To LME I go!" she said as she biked her way to LME agency.
-IN THE PRESIDENT'S OFFICE—
"What are you going to discuss with her, boss?" the raven haired actor asked in curiosity.
The president, in Taiwanese costume, gave him a sly smirk which made Ren more curious.
"What are you trying to do with her?" he asked and gave the president a killer intent look.
"We're going to discuss about how a thing can change Mogami-kun's life for a short time" he simply said as he studied Ren's reaction. "You don't have to worry too much, Ren. I understand how much you really love her but please stop giving that kind of look. You'll just scare her to death and she'll keep on avoiding you for eternity." He sobbed at the thought that his number one love me girl will just ran away from his number one actor. "She'll start to hate you and leave you for good if you didn't correct that attitude of yours." He added as he tried to tease him endlessly.
"Will you stop doing that drama? Who told you that I am in love with her?" he spatted hatefully at the president.
"You can fool anyone with your reaction, Ren but you can't fool me. Even you can't even hide everything from your manager, who is also aware of your feelings for her." He countered.
"Say whatever you want, boss." He said angrily.
"Ren, you're such a failure in trying to show your affections to the woman you love. You may have surpassed Katsuki in Tsukigomori but still, YOU'RE A FAILURE OF LOVE IN REAL LIFE! No wonder the women you dated before can't stand with the insufficient love you offered to them!" the president pointed at Ren, giving him a thumbs down.
"Boss, will you stop invading my personal life and issues? I'm capable of handling on my own problems. It doesn't concern you anyway." He said irritatingly.
"Hhhmm, come to think of it, Mogami-kun is in the Love Me section." He grinned to himself.
"So, are you trying to say that I should ask Mogami-san to go out with me so she can graduate from Love Me section? Am I right, boss?" he asked sternly
"No!" the president answered in exclamation.
"Eh?" Ren just gave the president a confused look.
"Maybe it's better for me to place you in the LOVE ME SECTION!" the president pointed Ren with his mischievous glint in his eyes.
It took Ren to process what the president said until…
"NOOOOOOOOO!" Ren mentally shouted in horror with his hands trying to pull his hair out.
The president sure is noisy today. Kyoko wondered what's happening inside. She hoped that today's discussion with the president will be a help for her.
She sighed as she opened the door.
So, how was it? tell me, pipz!
I want everybody to voice out their thoughts about this story!
