Chapter Two: Sakura
"Hello? Natsume-kun?"
"What is it, Narumi?"
"I need you to do a special for this month's edition~~"
"Hn."
"Great! We'll discuss the details tomorrow! By the way, great job on the interview. I might buy you those camera lens that you wanted."
"Bye."
"Bye, Natsume-kuuuuun~~"
...
"Natsume, you're late." A middle-aged man scolded. "When are you going to learn? If it wasn't for Narumi, I would have fired you long ago."
"Oh, come on now, Jinno, he's tired from last night's interview." Narumi came in the meeting room with a big grin on his face. The were around five people in the room. Writers and other high-ranking staff people. Jinno was something like second Narumi.
"Good morning everyone! This month's edition of Alice will be about the life of one of the greatest doctors of his time, Subaru Imai."
"What's so great about him?" Natsume said, obviously uninformed of this guy. The other people in the room gasped.
"He treated a disease that was spreading in a small city up north. People were already fleeing and there weren't any doctors anymore. It's either they were sick or they fled. Imai-san treated most of those afflicted by the disease single-handedly."
"Thank you for the information, Yuu."
...
"The committee has decided to assign this project to Natsume Hyuuga and our new writer, Mikan Sakura. Mikan-chan, please stand up to introduce yourself."
A petite brunette stood up and bowed her head shyly. "I'm Sakura Mikan, nice to meet all of you."
Natsume rolled his eyes. How can he work with this type of person? Acting all cute and shy. It just got to his nerves.
"You guys will be leaving Tokyo tomorrow, off to Imai-san's home town. We've arranged for you to stay in his house for the week."
Great, one whole week with a boring childish girl.
...
After the meeting, Mikan quietly approached Natsume. She beamed and bowed to him.
What does this girl want with me? Huh. Probably already fallen in love with me.
"Uhm, Hyuuga-san, let's do good together!" She smiled and Natsume rolled his eyes yet again.
"I don't care. If you think I'll like you in any way, you're wrong. So don't get you're hopes up. Understand, little girl?"
Mikan turned red with anger. How could this person she just met tell her to give up on him. Heck, why would she even like him in the first place? He's an arrogant, self-absorbed jerk whose only goal in life is to make money.
She didn't say any of that though.
"Maybe YOU'RE the one who shouldn't get your hopes up." She smirked then turned to leave.
This wasn't the girl from the meeting room. What the
