Orcas' Sasahara Souhei caught cheating with NATSUME?
20x5, 13th August
In the latest issue of weekly tabloid Black Monday, it was reported that Orcas' Sasahara Souhei spent the night at NATSUME's home, after being seen supporting the seemingly drunk model out from a taxi and taking her home and not seen exiting the building complex.
Sasahara Souhei debuted in the Kawaguchi Orcas in 20x0, and has been a regular in the line-up for the team. Also known and well-loved for his style, charm, and loyalty to the Orcas, he is one of the more popular sportsmen in recent times. He married in 20x1, after a brief courtship.
NATSUME started out in teen magazine Kora, and has appeared in several covers and ads that include luxury brands like Jada and Amore.
The pair had apparently met when NATSUME was chosen at the Orcas' campaign supporter in 20x1, and even appeared together in variety talk show, Kaminari Stories, which sparked the interest of netizens for their friendly banters on the show.
Both NATSUME and Sasahara's agencies have not commented on the issue.
Real time
"Asako, are you feeling better now?"
"Sasayan! What are you doing here? I thought you left for practice!"
"I went to get some groceries. The manager gave me the day off to take care of you and deal with the media."
"Sorry. It's my fault for not dressing normally and removing my make-up."
"It's not. You were sick, and anyone could see you weren't in the shape to even move."
"Sorry you had to hold my hair that many times last night."
"That's what husbands are for. Here."
"Umeboshi?"
"Okaa-san said this would ease the nausea."
"Thanks… It's pretty hilarious to read about the stuff on the internet. Imagine what would happen if we announce our relationship to the public."
"… Do you want to do it?"
"Why not? It's been years, and I do need to explain your 'scandal' and the reason I'm going into hiatus."
"Hiatus?"
"I'm pregnant."
*long pause*
"Sasayan?"
"I need to call Haru. No, Shizuku would be a better choice. And my mother. Ah, the manager too!"
"Souhei!"
A/N: I can totally imagine the personality-reversal at the end XD
On a side note: I still prefer Sasayan's close friends and Natsume calling him "Sasayan". It's more endearing.
