CHAPTER 2

Special Love Me Request

It was really noisy inside the president's office. 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.

"Excuse me, I'm sorry to intrude. Good afternoon, President." she said respectfully as she entered the office. When she finally faced the eccentric president, she saw Ren sitting right in front of him with his long legs crossed as he took a sip of his drink.

"Ah, Mogami-kun, you're here! Come in and have a seat beside Ren." The president implied as he took a glimpse on Ren's face. 'I see, you act so calm, neh, Ren.' His eyebrows twitched at the thought.

"Ah! Good afternoon to you too, Tsuruga-san. I didn't expect to see you this early." She said after she nods then timidly occupied the empty seat beside her senpai.

Ren gave her a genuine smile. "Good afternoon, Mogami-san. Well, it's a good thing that Yashiro-san managed my schedule to have it rescheduled for tomorrow so I can talk with the president. Besides, we are doing the Heel siblings assignment tonight, right? He asked as his facial expression became softer and kinder than before.

This visage of her senpai gave her goose bumps. It's like her demons are slowly fading away from the bright smile that the actor emitted as he convey his greetings in return.

"Yeah." She just nodded as her reply.

"Judging to your current appearance, I presume that you had a rough day, neh?" he asked, still wearing the same expression.

"It's true, Tsuruga-san. That's why I'm here to talk about it with the president today." She answered him then she looked at the president with a questioning look. The president is just listening to them without saying a word until he noticed that Kyoko just looked at him then somewhere around the room coughed, seeking for everyone's attention.

"Darling! I guess I need to snatch Ren-chan now for Cain Heel" the short woman suggested, giving her darling a sweet smile.

"Oh, you can take him, Ten. I'm already done with him. You do his transformation while I'm discussing things with Mogami-kun about her issues." President Takarada said as Jelly dragged poor and confused Ren to the dressing room.

The president mused for a while about the conversation of his two favorite people in his agency. "This guy is such a clever person but a hopeless one. That pretty face of his is so transparent. He is just excited that he can spend his night again with the girl he loved. My.. my.. Ren, no matter how much you loudly deny the fact that you adore her but still, your smile speaks the truth!" he noted to his amusement then he faced his way to the Love Me girl.

"Now, Mogami-kun. What can you say about the offer?" he asked as he settled to his seat in a comfortable position.

"Uhm, I think I should take the offer but-" her words were cut

"But what? Are there things that are holding you back that's why you're having second thoughts that you should not go and study abroad?" he predicted while observing her reactions.

"To tell you the truth, I'm scared and nervous about it. What if I fail and maybe people will be disgusted of me. Who wanted to be friends to a person like me of is simply plain and boring with no skills at all." She answered hesitantly.

Hearing her excuses, the president found it so unreasonable to consider it. Surprisingly, a light bulb has just switched on in his mind. His smile broadened, considering his ideas is the most effective way of making her mind up.

"By the way, Mogami-kun…" The president called.

"Yes, sir?" she asked.

"I have another Love Me assignment. Will you do it even if will takes a very long time for you to accomplish? I guarantee you that I will not give you more Love Me jobs if you only accept this one and only request. This request is only meant for you." The president proposed to her the idea showing her a challenging look.

"Don't worry about it, sir. I can do every Love Me assignment you tasked me. I'll do whatever it takes to accomplish my jobs even if I have to cross the raging seas of the storm just to reach and complete my objectives! She said in her mighty tone while standing on her seat as she used her hand gestures in front of the president while voicing out her little speech.

"You really are a loyal individual, Mogami-kun. You're so devoted to your responsibilities. Are you willing to take that kind of assignment? He asked again as he changed the tone of his voice to a serious one which would probably let the person have second thoughts.

"Yes, sir! It may be a single assignment which would take me for a long time to accomplish, I won't even mind if you add more Love Me requests!" she said proudly.

'As expected from her. Nobody can get in her way with that kind of determination she has. Sadly, she sometimes doesn't thought about the consequences and she's somewhat reckless when it comes to decision making. Once she knew the complete detail, that's the time she would end up crying and calling herself a fool. Anyway, she may be like that in some ways but she always accepts her responsibilities and work hard for it to perfection. So far, she's been well in everything she does. There's no problem of her acting as a professional actress. This time, I'm giving her this challenge to see how far she would reach with the intelligence and guts she has. I'm sure she can keep up with this. The school really did recognize her skills and abilities. That's what made me proud about her despite of her personal matters like her family background.' He thought to himself.

The president cleared his throat to get her attention. "Well, Mogami-kun let me ask you one more time. Are you willing to take the Special Love Me request? He asked in his stern voice as he peered into her eyes in intense.

Kyoko almost freaked out of the president's stare. She could feel the cold and heavy atmosphere that the he is giving off. It almost gave shivers to her spine as she scrutinized his façade. It's like he's expecting a satisfying answer from her. His face speaks like its saying that 'you should not disappoint me with your answer or else I'll kick you out of my agency'. And she doesn't want to get fired! So she must do something about it no matter what.

She squirmed on her seat uncomfortably, trying to find her words to begin with. 'No, Kyoko, you should not let down the expectations from the president. This is a challenge from him and now he is testing you of how much you can do even if it's worth losing your career.

She recomposed herself after gathering enough confidence to speak up. "Yes, sir, I'll do the Special Love Me request with no complaints. If you believe that I can do this then it is my job to prove it to you that I am capable of doing this 'special' job you mentioned. I may not know what it is yet but I think I should accept it and work hard for it to reach your expectations. It is an honor that you entrusted me with this task, sir" she replied in a professional way. She did her best to answer him in an honest way as possible. That's why it seems that she should choose the right words to convince the president.

The president studied her face while she spoke out her answer. He didn't see any doubts or hesitations from her. Her eyes told him that she's willing to undertake whatever it takes for her to meet the requirements.

The president's face turned from serious to a seemingly amused look. 'This should be interesting'

"Uhm, President?" she asked doubtfully.

The president came back to his senses and he grinned slyly at his number one Love Me girl making her confused of what he's trying to do. He raised his pointer finger at her and said:

"It's settled then. Mogami-kun, I strongly advise you to take the school's offer to study acting in abroad. That is your SPECIAL Love Me request to be accomplished for a year." He declared to her, standing on his 'royal' chair.

"Eh?" she blurted in a freaked out surprise after hearing what the president told her.

"Will you take back your words, Mogami-kun?" he asked seriously with a tint of teasing in his voice.

'Dammit. Never expected him to say this. I'm such a dummy. I should have been aware with that kind of tactics he has when it comes to this kind of situation. I can't take back my words now. I just swore to him no matter how it takes for me to complete this mission. Me and my clumsiness.' She mentally cursed herself.

"Mogami-kun?" the president called out as he waved his hand in front of her. 'I guess she was taken a back of the task.' He thought.

"Oh, president! I'm sorry. It was too sudden. I'm sorry for not responding to you immediately." She panicked.

"No problemo, Mogami-kun. I understand your reactions. So?" he asked again with the same tone as before.

"I'll take the offer, sir." She simply said.

"Good! Now everything is solved. I guess Jelly is done with Ren" he jumped with joy.

"Darling, we're done! Now it's Kyoko-chan's turn. Let's go Kyoko-chan!" said the short cutely woman as she snatched away Kyoko in exchange to Ren.

Now, a pregnant silence has taken over the two men in the room. The president stared at the dark messy person – Cain Heel. So, he decided to have a little fun with him for a while just to lighten the mood of the atmosphere.

"Oh, it's you." he said coldly at the person sitting silently right in front of him.
