Her Quartet Night
"The Change."
After Reiji had been pushed by Ai, he decided to chase after Nami. There was this feeling inside his gut that he needed to talk to her again, that he needed to be there for her, and to be someone who would understand her situation for not having her brother around in her life, especially for his own. After he had kissed her suddenly, Nami walked away from him without a word said. He didn't understand why she would just leave like that. He got into his car and drove off. He looked at himself in the mirror, while having his elbow rest on the side of the door, with his fingers near his lips. He kept thinking and thinking about Aine and Nami at the same time. He kept thinking about how Aine was the one who wanted the two to meet, and at this moment they met without Aine being there. What was Aine's purpose for them to meet in the first place? He pulled on the hand break, and his car speed up while he drove. He found Nami's FRS parked somewhere, where they can look out towards a bridge across the ocean. Reiji noticed her arms wrapped around her knees, and her head buried in them. Her cyan hair flew through the wind and Reiji took off his fedora and placed it on the passenger seat. He put his hands in his pockets and walked over to her where she sat.
"Nami."
He called out to her but Nami slowly looked up and then looked straight out to the sea. The stars above, shine across the sky and glittered through the ocean. She see car lights driving through the bridge. Nami ignored Reiji for a bit and then sighed. She patted the bench she sat on and Reiji took the initiative to sit next to her but not to close, so it wouldn't be awkward. It was silent for a few minutes and then Nami started to speak.
"Why did you follow me, Reiji?"
She said it with easiness but didn't tell Reiji with any eye contact. Reiji placed both hands on the bench and lean back, stretching out his legs in front of him.
"Do you think Aine would like me to just leave you run off and not keep my eyes on you?"
Nami made a pout face and slightly pushed Reiji. Reiji giggled a bit and then looked at Nami. Nami was starting to tear a bit and Reiji got a hold of her shoulder.
"Hey...Nami, you don't have to cry."
"I..I know. I just felt like I needed to."
Reiji was concerned with how she felt. It was definitely a bad idea for him to kiss her like that. It was probably making her feel uncomfortable and confused at the same time. Reiji started to take off his jacket and puts it around Nami.
"It's cold out right now. At least let me keep you warm."
Nami looked at him this time, wiping away her own tears and just looked at his expression on his face. Reiji caught a glimpse of how she looked. Nami looked away a bit and then back at Reiji.
"Do you ever wonder, why Aine wanted us to meet before he left?"
Reiji raised his eyebrows over Nami's question. Nami didn't know what she was saying at this point. She obviously knew that she was keeping her brother away from Reiji in the first place. Reiji had found out about each other and yet she hasn't told him the truth that she knows where he was located. She clenched her hand, next to her chest. Reiji just sighs and then looks out to the sea.
"I do. Aine had some sort of purpose for us to meet. But here we are now, in front of each other. Being in the same group, and that you became our composer out of nowhere. It's not bad. It's probably some sort of fate we had to meet."
Nami and Reiji became quiet once again and they both looked out to the sea. Nami covered her head with her hands and Reiji just pets her head.
"Oh come on! Did that kiss really scare you?! It didn't mean anything"
"You are such a punk! Why did you do that in the first place?! You should know you are sending a roller coaster of emotions into my brain right now!"
Reiji pinches both of her cheeks and Nami did the same to him. They start to laugh together and they smiled. Nami and Reiji looked away from each other suddenly and Nami crossed her arms.
"Let's just forget that awkward kiss ever happened, alright? Especially after our argument with each other was uncalled for."
"Mmhm, sure. You probably haven't kissed a man before."
Nami's face turned bright red and she threw Reiji's jacket at him for being such a tease. Reiji continued to laugh and block all her hits. Nami can feel her heart race so much after what Reiji had said. It was actually true that she has not been kissed before in her life because she believed in staying single for the rest of her life. It wasn't like she was going to love someone right away, and Reiji totally killed the moment of her first kiss by taking it. Was he like this to other girls out there, with his romantic moves? She continued to hit him and Reiji stood up right away and started to run around the beach while Nami literally chased after him. She found seashells on and started throwing it at him and it was hurting his bare arms.
"Hey! Don't throw that at me!"
"I don't give a damn! Give me back my first kiss you dumbass!"
Reiji sticked his tongue out and then he noticed three people staring at them. Nami looked at the direction Reiji was looking at and noticed it was Ai, Camus and Ranmaru standing still, watching the two be idiots. Both Reiji and Nami stopped what they were doing and the wind blew at them slowly. Things were quiet and Nami stared at the rest of the Quartet Night members. She has come this far to taking care of a group of men who had different personalities and different stories in their hearts to make songs for them. The big event was coming near but it was time to finally make Reiji's solo next. She looked at Reiji who also looked at her, knowing what her expression was telling him. Ai walks up to Nami and hits her on the top of her head.
"Something is definitely wrong with you. I think you need more rest. You are always trying to take everything on your own." Ai glares at Nami and Nami hits him in the back, knowing her hand started to hurt a bit because this jerk was a robot. Camus and Ranmaru followed and Camus crossed his arms.
"It is almost that time for Quartet Night to perform one of your written songs, Nami. You need to take your job seriously."
Nami rolled her eyes and Ranmaru slaps her in the back and then ruffles her hair.
"Anyways, you will rock out with us no matter what happens. You can leave after everything is done but we will miss you, Nami."
Nami's smile turned into a frown. She just remembered all the times she had spoke that she would leave right after she succeeds on their success with all their songs. She felt her chest this time and thought about the short memories with them all. She didn't think she would be close to Quartet Night so easily, and making friends with idols was a definite turn of events. She back away for a bit and then bowed her head. Reiji, Ai, Ranmaru and Camus were wide eyed at her stance.
"I've changed my mind on what I said about leaving. There is no way I can leave you guys alone. I want to make a change. It may sound very selfish but…"
She raised her head up and put her hand in front of her.
"You are my Quartet Night, and I am responsible for this group. I want you all to accept me as the composer who will stay with you forever."
Quartet Night all looked at each other and smiled and all of them put their hands together.
"FOR QUARTET NIGHT!"
They all raised their hands up in the air and started yelling in the beach together. A shooting star had shoot across the skies, to make their wish come true…
~A few days later~
During a meeting Nami got a text message from Saotome out of nowhere, while she was watching Quartet Night practice on a new choreography they were trying to work on. Ai noticed Nami's eyebrows furrow at her phone. He went up to her and stole her phone away from her.
"Hey! Give that back."
"You seem troubled."
"Ugh...I wasn't even finished reading it."
She took the phone away from Ai and she continued to read the message and her eyes went wide open.
"Huh? Why would I have to do that?"
She hurriedly put her phone in her pocket and ran out of the practice room. Reiji watches her leave and follows her.
"Hey where are you headed?!"
Nami holds her bag tightly and just bows.
"I'll be right back! I need to go see Saotome for something. It is very urgent!"
Nami started her car and drove off. Quartet Night watched as she left and all looked at each other.
During the drive there, she was trying to call Saotome when she should be focusing on the road. She needed to speak to him and ask him what this was about. Why did he think of that idea out of all days? She was supposed to work on Reiji's solo song and not someone else's. She finally got to the agency and parked her car. Nami ran inside and she waved her hello's to the STARISH members and then paused to look at one of the members. Nanami had a curious look as to why Nami looked a bit irritated. Nami shook her head and then started walking off to Saotome's office, barging in there without knocking. Saotome twirls in his chair and stands on his desk, crossing his arms.
"What brings you here, miss Kisaragi?"
"You know what I'm here for you idiot of a man! What's the meaning of this?!"
She pressed the email on her phone that she got from him today and put it right at his face.
"WHO SAID I HAVE TO WRITE A SONG FOR A STARISH MEMBER?! I DIDN'T SIGN UP FOR THIS?!"
Saotome started to laugh and then twirls on his desk and then he suddenly gave out a pose.
"It's a test to see if you can actually work with another group if someone needs help. Usually composers can work on songs for different idols."
Nami crossed her arms and glared completely at Saotome.
"I'm part of Quartet Night and I have a solo to finish for one of the last members. Do you think I have time to work on someone from STARISH? Nanami is their main composer, why don't you ask her to-"
"Do you want to be fired from being a composer, Nami? I have the duty to do that and take you out of the idol world, and make you a failure to your Kisaragi family line."
Nami was wide eyed at his words and went up to him, holding up his collar.
"That isn't your choice, sir. Plus, I have a lot of work to be done before I even think about leaving."
Nami and Saotome gave each other a competitive look, and he clapped his hands and the doors opened. Nami turned around suddenly and she see's a man with dark blue-ish hair and was well dressed. Nami noticed this was one of Reiji's kouhai's he was taking care of. The man came closer and then bowed with respect. This made Nami raise her eyebrow.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Kisaragi. My name is Tokiya Ichinose. I am one of the members from STARISH."
"No need for formalities, I just don't understand why this fat guy wants me to work on your song."
"Fat guy?"
She points at Saotome and Saotome starts rolling on the floor.
"YOU ARE RUDE!"
"NO ONE CARES."
Tokiya didn't realized Nami's attitude was rough in the inside. When he first saw her when she stepped in to the agency she looked like some beautiful girl walking by with well manners and was raised in a good environment. For him to see a real self of her was something that scared Tokiya a bit. Nami crossed her arms and then looked around Tokiya. From top to bottom. He was pretty attractive and she knew how younger he was from her. She then noticed the other STARISH members near the door, including their composer, watching the scene. Nami raised her hand to her head and rubbed it.
"I guess I have no choice but to teach this kouhai something, huh?"
Saotome's feelings were back to normal and he jumped with an evil laughter.
"YES! MISS KISARAGI! YOU ONLY HAVE TWO DAYS TO WORK ON HIS SOLO SONG, AND IF YOU PASS THIS CHALLENGE, YOU CAN GO BACK TO WORKING ON MR. KOTOBUKI'S SOLO, AND BE WITH QUARTET NIGHT ONCE AGAIN. BUT.."
Nami looked at him seriously and Saotome stepped in front of her.
"You will perform with him on stage, with a little bit of dancing here and there. It needs to have all the sassy-ness and a pinch of sexy-ness in it! It needs to give the crowd a hit in the heart and for you to also perform with him, you will be his model lady, who wears your little fancy cosplays with him."
Nami backed away quickly and then trips over something and falls down.
"YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!"
Nami looked terrified.
"She used to cosplay? What is cosplay?" Cecil said out loud and Syo and Natsuki covered his mouth. Ren put strands of hair back and pulled out a magazine from behind him and flipped through the pages. He showed all of them an old photo of Nami posing with cars and costumes that she had made to entertain the crowds in japan.
"Here is the proof. She looked pretty sexy in these magazines. I can't wait to see what she does for Tokiya."
Nami got up quickly and ran towards Ren, grabbing the magazine and whacking him in the head.
"This was my past job! I only make costumes for people and help fix cars up. I've retired from that world for now."
"Sure. Inside your head you still would love to do it."
Nami whacks him again and then Tokiya grabs a hold of her shoulder.
"For this one time, Nami. It would be a pleasure to work with you."
Tokiya bows down to her again and Nami just gave out a sigh. She looked at her clock on her watch and then took out her phone to write some plans out on her notes.
"At 5pm tonight, we will meet in the studio to work on your song. I barely know you but after Saotome gave me the most ridficuloud ideas, I have a song ready to be written down. So you better be prepared."
Nami put her phone in her pocket and walks out the door, knowing she had already accepted a job that wasn't something she would like to be doing. Tokiya was impressed on how she knows what she will do and couldn't believe she would actually take on this job. Nami walked to her car and realized a green car was nearby. Reiji stepped out while Ai still stayed in the passenger seat. Camus sat in the back and Ranmaru was leaning on the trunk. Nami rubbed her head and knew she couldn't hide what her next job was so she decides to walk up to them. She placed her hand on the top of Reiji's car and stared at the members.
"I'm gonna have to postpone practice for two days."
Reiji grabbed her by the shoulders and shook her lightly.
"Huh? But we are supposed to be working on my solo song."
Nami brushed off his hands and crossed her arms.
"Well something came up, Reiji. Saotome wants me to do this one job. To be honest, I really didn't want to take it in but I can't lose you guys over one simple song writing."
They all looked at her and then Ai stick his head out the window.
"Who are you writing a song for?"
"Tokiya Ichinose."
"EHHHH! You are writing something for one of my kouhai's and you can't work on my song because of him?!"
Nami closed her eyes and rubbed her head again with annoyance.
"What else can I do? This is a job Saotome asked of me, I can't refuse it. I am a composer after all. I may have my responsibilities for my own group only but Saotome is right about a composer being able to write songs for anyone."
They all looked at her quietly and Camus stepped out of the car.
"For Quartet Night's sake of keeping you as our composer only. You better get your job done so you can come back to us and work with us again."
Nami nodded at Camus's words and stepped into her car, rolling down the window to look at Quartet Night.
"I'm going to have Tokiya meet me here again, I rather work on his song soon instead of tomorrow. I'll see you guys later. I have errands to take care of."
She waved her hand and then drove off. She went over to one of her workshops that helped her with costumes and props, and she brought Echo and Aya along with her to help her out. Nami started to think about Tokiya, and about what type of singer he was. She even asked herself what type of sexy does the crowd want to see. Echo played around and brought out a whip, handcuffs and something really inappropriate in front of Nami and Nami slapped her in the back really hard. Nami started hanging out with the girls lately just to get help with getting a costume ready for both her and Tokiya. She had texted Tokiya's number from time to time to get his measurements, thanks to Reiji who had given her the number, it was easy for her to work something out. Now, it was time for his song and she met him at 5pm. She see's Tokiya outside, waiting for Nami's arrival. Nami had brought a bag with her and she instantly grabbed a hold of his wrist and dragged him along to the dance room. Once they got in there, Tokiya was bewildered at her actions and just watched her put stuff in place. Nami tied her hair up and some strands fells near her cheek. Tokiya gave a short gulp at on how she looked. Nami started stretch for a bit and then she turned to look at Tokiya.
"What? Getting turned on by my looks or something?"
Tokiya instantly waves his hands in front of him,
"NO! NO! You got it all wrong. Just didn't imagine Quartet Night's composer was this open."
Nami stopped stretching and rolled her eyes, not caring about what Tokiya had to say. She brought out a CD and put it in the radio. Tokiya tilted his head and crossed his arms.
"You made a song already?"
"Not exactly. I think this would actually fit for you. I fixed it up a bit before I even came here and met up with you. I think you can make some lyrics out of that. But first, we are going to learn some dance steps for it. Since yours truly has to perform with you."
"hmmm.."
Nami looked at Tokiya who was standing, thinking to himself. Was he always like this? This man was pretty proper and never really disrespected anyone. especially herself. Once she pressed the play button, the beat started to play. Tokiya looked at Nami who looked at herself in the mirror. She took a breather from time to time and when certain beats started to play, Nami was already making a choreography. Tokiya was completely amazed by her ability to start something fresh and make it look like it was practiced a long time ago. As he listened to the beats and watched as Nami moved in sync with the music she had made. He took out a notebook out of his bag and started writing some lyrics down. As Nami danced, she looked in the reflection and smiled at the fact Tokiya was writing something down while listening in on the song and watching her dance. Obviously, this song was meant for a couple dance so she hoped that this will entertain the crowd. This was like that time she played the guitar with Ranmaru and she had to make sure it had the same performance quality as that. Out of nowhere, Nami had a ightbulb pop out of her head and she started to smirk. She started walking to up to the focused Tokiya, who was literally writing some lyrics. She grabbed him by his collar and pushed him down on the floor. Her hands slid down his tie and then to his hands. Tokiya had dropped the book and pencil to the side and just looked at Nami.
"Hmmmmm….interesting."
"Hm?"
"You seem like a man who has manners but inside you have dirty thoughts."
She see's Tokiya blushing right away and then Nami got off him. She grabbed the notebook and started to read half of the lyrics.
"Ahhh~ Good. This will definitely work."
Nami grabbed a hold of Tokiya's hand and lead him to the dancefloor.
"Practice with me."
Tokiya noddd his head and then watched Nami's movement's closely.
"1,2,3,4….5,6,7,8… AGAIN!"
Nami was teaching him hard just like how she would teach Quartet Night. A flashback of Aine came to her head and she remembered the time he had taught her how to dance and making sure the best moves that she thought of would make the crowd want to learn how to dance like you. As she kept her eyes on Tokiya, he was definitely in sync with her. Just like how Ranmaru and Nami danced around the crowd. It felt similar but in a different way. Tokiya's placement with his hands on her waist, shaking to the beat at the same time. Every step was fully fulfilled with each beat that dropped. Once the song had ended they both fell to the floor, being back to back from each other. Nami lean her head behind his back.
"Wow…, I wasn't expecting an excellent job from Reiji's kouhai. You are definitely something."
"You are not bad yourself, Kisaragi-senpai."
"pfft. I don't deserve to be called senpai at this age."
Tokiya rubbed his head and Nami gigged. They both looked at each other for a moment and then
Nami gave out a sigh and then decided to lay on the floor, closing her eyes.
"So much work has been put on me ever since I became Quartet Night's Composer."
Tokiya didn't look at her while she spoke. He wondered why she brought that up all of a sudden but all he did was listen to him. Nami continued to speak.
"I mean, I don't have a big problem with it. Just that being in this business and working with idols made me change a whole lot. It kind of makes me want to think about how my brother would react if he saw me working so hard as a composer than the idol that my family and my brother would believe I would be because I was talented in dancing and all instruments. Self taught at that, with the help of my brother, Aine,"
Tokiya looked at her instantly, hearing about Aine.
"Aine is your brother? No wonder why you sort of have a familiar look to him."
Nami covered her mouth right away, forgetting to not always spill out she was the sister of the famous idol that everyone knew of. Tokiya tilted his head and then crossed his arms.
"I'm guessing you were trying to hide yourself that you were his sister. But it's easy to tell. You don't have to be all worried."
Nami stayed quiet and then put her knees to her chin, while wrapping her arms around her leg.
"My brother must have been really popular."
"He was a great man, from what I have heard. I actually looked up to him and his angelic voice."
When Tokiya mentioned an angelic voice, it also made her think about how Ai had that similar voice as him. Nami literally shook the thought off and then stood up to stretch. Once she did that, she turned to Tokiya, giving out her hand. Tokiya just goes along with it, grabbing onto her hand and then when Nami tried to pull him up, Tokiya got a hold of her and his hands were at her waist and their body was literally really close.
"Oh Nami~~~~ I brought you something to eat~~ From the best Kotobuki restaurant you will-"
Nami and Tokiya both looked at who was yelling and noticed Reiji's mouth went wide open. Reiji passed the food to Ranmaru to hold and then ran up to Tokiya, pushing him away from Nami and blocking Nami's path by hugging her.
"WHO SAYS YOU CAN GO ALL TOUCHY TOUCHY WITH OUR GIRL?!"
Nami pinched his ear and yelled into it.
"WHO SAYS I WAS ANYONE'S GIRL YOU!"
"OWWW!"
Nami let go of Reiji's ear and just smack him across the head for being a nuisance. Tokiya cleared his throat one what just happened but he knew that it wasn't anything, he just grabbed her. As long as it wasn't his senpai's round boobs than everything is okay. He thought for a moment when he watched Reiji and Nami interact. He could of sworn that they could have been a couple if they wanted to. Reiji noticed Tokiya staring and grabbed him by the arm, pulling him away from Nami.
"Let's go eat some good food!"
"I didn't ask you to drag me, Kotobuki-senpai."
Nami rolled her eyes and then looked at Camus, Ranmaru and Ai who just continued to look at her.
"What? Did I do something wrong?"
Camus looked away.
"You are one promiscuous woman."
Nami raised an eyebrow.
Ranmaru walked over to Nami and put an arm around her, flicking her by the nose.
"You have charms that could either make a man go weak in the knees."
Ai's expression didn't look interested in this but he still spoke anyways.
"Nami has a way with both men and woman. It's a bit out of hand. You should calm that down."
"Who cares. It's not like I'm going to like literally make it a serious thing to someone, without messing with their feelings."
Once she said that, the three of them all got quiet and looked away. From that, Nami was confused.
Two days finally passed, and it was time for Tokiya and Nami to perform the song Nami had written for him. Nami was in the dressing room and she put a black wig on, her outfit consist of a uniform style, with a hat. She put on purple eye contacts and did her own make up. She looked behind her where Tokiya was also putting the same similar outfit but was more like a suit,while hers was in a skirt. Tokiya put on his gloves and tied his tie and Nami turned around to look at the mirror again to finish up the make up she put on her. Tokiya finally was done getting ready and he walked over to Nami who was having trouble with tying a ribbon on her waist and he helped her. They both looked at each other and high five each other.
"Are you ready?"
"Let's do it."
Nami nodded at his answer and they both started to walk out on stage. Quartet Night and STARISH were backstage and they all both yelled out to Nami and Tokiya to do a good job. Reiji looked like a whiny baby, seeing Nami all cozy up to Tokiya. Tokiya facepalm himself when Nami was playing around. Tokiya started to talk onto his microphone, and telling all fans words of motivation and what he will show for his performance. Nami stood on a platform to get into position while Tokiya was already walking on stage. The music started to play and Tokiya started to dance while the back up dancers were behind him. Nami was snapping her fingers, hearing every beat she had made to make this possible. She didn't think an old beat was something she would use for someone other than Tokiya.

Once the back up dancers had went off stage, Nami comes in with sparks flying and Tokiya turns to her, leaving out a hand while she shake her hips coming towards him. The fans were literally screaming at the way Tokiya sang and dance in a complete sync with Nami. No one could recognize how Nami looked in the look she put on herself. They danced and added in a somewhat "cha cha" dance move in between, which they didn't even practice on at all. Tokiya and Nami were dancing with smiles in her face. Nami unzipped the uniform jacket and throwing across the stage and made Tokiya come closer to her, his hand on her thigh to her waist and almost to her chest on the way they moved and this had shocked Tokiya. Some of the moves that Nami was pulling wasn't from the practice at all. He remembered the rest of the routine they had down but Nami had added a bit more. He noticed that the crowd was definitely going wild at the way they did their couple performance. Nami definitely had talent in her to make the crowd this crazed over it.

Nami really liked the way the song turned out to be and she was enjoying the time to perform with a singer like Tokiya. It had a different feel to the way she was with Quartet Night. She noticed how STARISH had a more brighter feel towards their music for like younger listeners and with Quartet Night had mostly the attention of the more older crowd. She was actually okay with it and was understanding the power of music. Tokiya grabbed her hand and their bodies were a bit more closer, and this had made Nami blushed instantly when Tokiya did the same exact move she pulled on him during practive. He held onto her top, grabbing her closer and his face looked really seductive, almost at the point of kissing her. He sang the song and went closer to her ear. The girls were fangirling while Tokiya seemed like he was putting his own moves into this performance. His eyes felt like poison and Nami felt like pushing his face away from hers but she knew they were performing. Nami thought in her head
"Please. Don't tell me you are trying to pull on some fanservice right now"
Nami was getting a little nervous.

Tokiya ended the song with a small kiss to Nami's cheek and bended on his knees and kissed her hand like he was a prince and everyone cheered so much. Nami went wide eyed and when she looked behind her where she can see people backstage, she can see Ranmaru and Camus holding down a crazy Reiji. Ai just looked away. Nami gave a wink towards Quartet Night and just stick her tongue out, jokingly. Once both Tokiya and Nami went back stage, STARISH went up to Tokiya and cheered him on and patting him on the back. Nami took off the wig she wore and let her hair feel free from it. She felt pretty tired. Quartet Night looked at her and all of them had their arms crossed and looked at her hard.
"What?"
They didn't say anything and then she turned to Nanami and her STARISH members. They looked at each other with competitive looks on their face, but then Tokiya had walked up in front and bow down to Nami. Nami looked at Tokiya and tilted her head.
"Thank you for everything. It was a pleasure to work with you, Nami."
Quartet Night and Nami were wide eyed and Nami laughed a bit. She raised his head and held Tokiya by his chin and then kissed his cheek. Everyone was literally going "WHOA!" and Nami turned her back on STARISH.
"Only this one time I'm ever going to do that. You all have to do well enough to see if you can beat my Quartet Night. Because if not, we will be the ones to take that number one spot."
Reiji, Ai, Ranmaru and Camus smiled at her comment and all of them walked off to go their own direction. Nami gave out a big sigh and was super tired. Reiji wrapped an arm around Nami and patted her head.
"Our queen is now a sleepy-head. We shall take you home."
"Thanks."
Nami felt her chest a bit and Reiji paid a real close attention to her. He didn't want to keep his eyes away from Nami, knowing her condition. They all knew she couldn't work too hard but she continues to do so. All the work was finally finished and Nami slipped into her pajamas, finally having alone time and getting into her comfortable bed.
"Ahhhhhh~ It feels so good to be home for right now. My feet hurt. My body aches and I can just relax before another day to work."
She was about to fall asleep suddenly but instead she heard a ring at her door. She raised her head up from the pillow and raised an eyebrow. She looked at the time and realized it was 1 am in the morning. Who could be visiting her at the time like this? She got up instantly and walked downstairs to go see who it was.
"Reiji, if it's you trying to play your stupid games again, I will not work on your song tomorrow!" Nami yelled out. She had her phone in her hand, just to prepare the cops if Reiji was about to do something stupid and thought it was would be a good idea to give him a punishment.
Once Nami opened the door, she opened her eyes and her heart was struck hard.
"Nami…..you are home."
Nami couldn't speak a word and her mind felt like collapsing. She was at the point of not breathing at the moment and when the person in front of her had closed the door behind them, that person locked it and instantly hugged Nami right away. Nami's body didn't react and she dropped her phone on the floor. Tears started to fall and she cried even harder. She hugged the person in front of her tightly.
"AINE!"
End of Chapter 7
