Chapter 2.
Thanks everyone for taking time to read the last chapter! Hope this will appeal to you as well!
Kyoko's heart was thumping furiously. Her anger level was on the rise. The anger caused by idiot number 1 was killing her. The hate-o-meter shot up to 101. Seeing his face, knowing she has to co-star with him as the main heroine and even going so far as to have to even be on the same boat as him, everything made her mad. She knew, it was for a purpose, to steal the lime light from him, but to have to work with him? It sucked. It really did.
Her character was a beautiful, young, rich lady. She was dignified, graceful, the perfect ojou-sama. Her name was Kotomi Okazaki. She loved a man called Ruka Ichiou (Sho). However, this man cruelly rejected her for the sake of money. Then along came a man called Ginji. He was perfect. He was rich, beautiful, and extremely intelligent with a good personality to boot. Gradually, he fell in love with Kotomi, but had difficulty expressing himself because of Kotomi herself. Kotomi lost all confidence in love and faith. All she had left was an empty shell.
Kyoko knew, this character was the splitting image of her. While she found the concept of love stupid, she sympathized with her character. Beside, she finally had a chance to play what she wanted! "HOOOOO. Kotomi-sama, you are so so awesome!" She grinned.
"Huff—hhur. Finally found you, Kyoko-san! Please, head to the interview room now. Sho-san is waiting. Please make the interview a success!"
"Umm. Yes. Thank you." Kyoko headed to the interview room. Controlling her anger, she sat beside Sho. Sho sniggered. "So you came this far huh." He said.
"Watch it, idiot." Outwardly, she smiled. However, deep in her heart, she wanted to kill him. Only she can't do that. There are people watching.
"And we'll start the interview now! Cameras!"
Host: " Welcome now! We have Sho-san and Kyoko-san today! Unfortunately, actor for Ginji for the drama is absent due to circumstance. Anyway, both of you have come a long way. So, both of you are co-starring in the drama "Shooting Star". What are your thoughts, Kyoko-san?
Kyoko: "Well, I'm very grateful for being given this opportunity. My character is a very interesting character, and I look forward to playing her."
Host: Oooh. And what about Sho-san?
Sho: "I think this will be a good experience. I will do my best for the sake of my many fans."
Kyoko cringed. "Now what," she thought. "He's trying to compare the number of fans between me and him? Irritating!"
The interview lasted for a good 30 minutes. "Good work, both of you." the host said.

Kyoko left in haste. She didn't want to see that idiot's face. Sho looked at the back of his "ex-maid". He didn't want to chase after her anyway.
"That was close, lucky I could cover some stupid feelings with some remarks. I mean, after 6 months, she really changed. But what was that feeling anyway? I know she's catching up. But no way am I going to be intimidated. "
