My most sincere apologies this update comes a day late, but for the life of me I just couldn't access the sign in page yesterday no matter how many times I tried. So in the end I gave up and decided to wait overnight..
43. Past Insecurities
315 Words
It was the first time Satsuki had ever been filming on location. It was Saturday and they were in a local high school, shooting the scenes of the drama where 'Kagome' was visiting her home in the present.
Sitting in the classroom, for the first time in years, was an oddly disconcerting experience. The extras to be used in the scene were crowding in the back of the room, twittering excitedly.
The sight seemed to transport her back in time.
She had never been a part of that group of pretty and popular girls, twittering in the corner of the classroom and aiming meaningful glances at the boys in the class.
It was not that she hadn't had any friends - she had been in the volleyball club and had been really close with some of her teammates. She had been a tomboy. While she had been popular enough with the athletic girls, the pretty popular ones had never spared her a second glance.
And neither had the boys. Few of the guys in the boys' volleyball club had been friendly with her, but she was not deluded, she knew they probably hadn't even thought of her as a girl.
She had never had a boyfriend in her life.
And now one of the best and most popular actors in the country had noticed her.
Satsuki had no idea what to make of it. Men like Narita Ken had never given her the light of the day. Thus it was unnerving and unnatural that she should hold his interest.
She was certain that any day now he would grow bored of his jest. A cold and jeering expression would appear on his face and he'd tell her that he had just been yanking her chain all along…
There was no way he would actually be serious about her. Satsuki didn't believe that for a second.
