chapter 6

Shinichi opened his eyes slowly. He's in a unfamiliar room. He gets his phone and see tons of notifications. He firstly check the call logs.

78 missed calls from Call me xo

'Am I going to be dead?' His thoughts.

He opened his messages. He see spam messages from Shiho asking where the hell he is.

He put his palm to his face. Heiji suddenly opened the door and holding a cup of coffee.

"Hey dude! Here drink ya coffee!" He smiled.

Shinichi stand up.

"Thanks Heiji but I have to go now." He said and went to the exist to eh place.

He ride a cab and went to his hotel. He tries to contact Shiho but her phone is off. He changed his clothes and borrowed Kaito's car. He went to Shiho's Mansion. He went out of the car and one of the bodyguard approached him.

"Miss Shiho just went out somewhere." He said.

"Do you know where?" Shinichi asked.

"In the studio I think."

Shinichi thanked him and went straight at the studio. He asked the front desk employee where's Shiho's at and the employee told him the room. He went there immediately and barged into room, he see her doing a photoshoot. She's wearing a black sexy dress, everyone in the room is looking at him.

"Hey sorry for barging in." He politely said.

Shiho went to him and gives him a peck  kiss on the lips.

"You missed me already huh?" She smiled.

She put her arms around him to give him a warm hugged. She then let go of him and looks at everyone in the room. They all started walking out and leave the two of them in the room.

"Hey I'm sorry I was out last night with Heiji I panicked and went here to talk to you because you spam me with messages and I got a 78 missed ca—"

"You're so cute when you panicked." She smirked.

"It's Heiji's Idea. He told me to spam you and calls you 78 times." She added.

Shinichi can't say anything.

'What the?!?' Is in his mind.

"Well I see your effort thanks for coming here to apologize." She then walk and get her bag.

Shinichi watched her getting something on her bag.

"Hey come with me." She said.

"Where?" He asked.

She gets the tickets from her bag.

"Music fest!" She excitedly said.

"But—"

"Shuichi sent these tickets. He said we should go out on date outside and make our pr official." She added.

"Oh... that's cool." He smiled.

"You excited?" She asked.

"Ofcourse I am!" He said.

Coinciding in Time...

"Hi beautiful." Kaito said.

"Hey Kaito." Akako said in the other line.

"How's your day?" He asked.

"Great actually. Why didn't you come with Shinichi last night? We get drunk last night." She said.

"Ohh he didn't tell me he's going out with you all."

His phone got snatched, he looks at Masumi.

"What's wrong with you?" He asked.

"I was calling you and you're not paying attention! Where's Shinichi?" She asked.

Kaito sighed.

"I don't know. You're his assistant right? You should be the one who knows where the heck he's at." He said annoyed.

"Give back my phone!" He commands.

Masumi roll her eyes and gives his phone back. Kaito looks at her.

"Ever since that entitled b*tch accepts the fake pr thing Shinichi doesn't have much time to spent his time with us." She frowned.

Kaito looks at her and then smirked.

"I smell jealousy..." he said.

"I'm not jealous I'm just mad at him, I warned him about her but hopefully he will listen to me." She said.

"Shiho is beautiful inside and out and she's helping our friend to get famous and achieved his dreams. You don't need to warned him about her. He's an adult remember?" He said.

"I know but still... he shouldn't trust her. What if she's up to something?"

Kaito laughs.

"Up for something? I don't think so." He smiled.

"Hey look. I'm not even siding her ok? But I don't think Shiho will be a  bad influence to him, Yeah Shiho's image is a bad girl, rebel and whatsoever but I don't want to judge her coz I don't really know her personally." He added.

"Don't be jealous alright?" He teased.

Time Skipped.

Shinichi and Shiho went outside the street and walking holding hands.

Paparazzi's are keep taking a pictures of them and asking them.

"SHINICHI? SHIHO? ARE YOU TWO FINALLY DATING AND CONFIRMING YOUR RELATIONSHIP?" a paparazzi asked.

"ARE YOU TWO FAKING IT FOR THE SAKE OF YOUR FILM?" Another paparazzi asked.

Shiho and Shinichi stopped walking.

"Ofcourse not. We started dating before our film started." She simply said.

Shinichi looks at her.

"Shinichi how does it feel to date a famous actress even you're still a newbie actor and doesn't prove anything to people that you can truly act?" A paparazzi asked.

Shiho roll her eyes.

"You know what F*ck#r? Don't you dare to say rude things about my Boyfriend! He's a good actor and I can assure you that once we finished our film he'll get his award at the Cannes." She said upset.

Shinichi and Shiho started walking again and ignore the bunch of paparazzi's. They headed to the music fest and went inside the venue. They went straight to the front vip section. Shinichi lean in to whisper on her ear.

"Thank you." He whispered.

He then looks at her, she's staring back and smiling at him.

"You're welcome. The paparazzi's are full of Sh*t so don't let them affect you." She said.

Shiho notice from a far that there's someone taking a pictures of them, Shiho moves closer to him and gives him a kiss. After the kissed she looks at him.

"People here are secretly taking a pictures of us." She lower her voice.

Shiho and Shinichi sit down. He put his arms around her shoulder and kissing her cheek, they're laughing together and seems very happy in each others company.

The music fest started, they're singing along and enjoy the scene. Shinichi and Shiho are having fun while watching the other artists. The band suddenly stopped playing and Ryusuke Higo (a famous Japanese soccer player) went up on the stage, he took the microphone and speak.

"Hi everyone I'm sorry for interrupting but may I call for the beautiful Miss Yoko Okino..." he said.

The crowd gets wild and a spotlight is focusing on Yoko Okino. Yoko started walking towards the stage. Higo is smiling at her. His eyes are deeply inlove staring at his Girlfriend.

"You look so beautiful and I'm beyond happy to be your boyfriend but you know i think I need to level up our relationship." He happily said.

The crowd are screaming. He kneel down in front of her and show a small box showing a beautiful Engagement ring.

"Will you Marry me?" He asked.

Yoko nods and smiled at him. They kissed after the proposal happened. People claps and screaming, Shinichi claps too. He looks at Shiho, her eyes seems sad. Shiho looks at him and held his hand, they walked outside the venue. Fortunately there's no paparazzi following them and it's dark outside. Shiho keeps walking while holding Shinichi's hand. He just let her take him to wherever she's going. They stopped walking in a dark place. Shiho hugged him tightly, she started crying. Shinichi hugged her back, he just let her cry. After minutes of crying she moves forward to give space between them. He can see her face thru the moonlight, she looks sad. Shinichi takes her hand and he lead the way. Shiho followed him.

After walking for 10 minutes they stopped at an abandon art museum building. He unlocked the gate and they went inside the museum. It's very dark inside and Shinichi used his phone's flashlight as their light. They went upstairs. Shinichi open the curtains and they can see the city lights from where they standing. It looks amazing. Shiho then looks at him.

"Why did you take me here?" She asked.

"I always go here when I'm sad." He smiled.

"But you're not sad... I am the one who's sad." She said.

Shinichi looks at her and smiled.

"This place gives me comfort. My grandpa owned this place. I used to go here when he's alive, this place was the best museum ever but unfortunately my grandpa died and no one takes care of this place anymore. My dad can't handle this museum because we're not very wealthy. my parents savings all went to my Grandpa's treatments and hospital Bill's so we do nothing and let this museum closed. But I promise to my Grandpa that when I become successful Actor I'll renovate this place and will make his legacy continue..." he smiled.

"He made every arts here." He added.

Shiho looks around and see the dusty paintings on the wall.

"He's so talented." She said.

"I like paintings too. I used to paint." She added.

"Really? Why did you stop?" He asked.

Shiho sit down on the floor. Shinichi joined her too.

"You didn't answer me when I asked you why did you take me here." She said.

"I want you to feel what i feel." He said while looking deeply in her eyes.

"What do you mean?" She asked confused.

"Like I told you earlier... this place gives me comfort. I want you to feel this place. I want you to feel Comfort." He smiled.

"And I know I told you that I go here when I'm sad right? But you're the one who's sad so I take you here." He chuckled.

"Weirdo." She smiled.

"I considered you as my special friend to be honest. Not because you're helping me to gain popularity, I appreciates that. But you're too easy and fun to be around and it feels good. I feel like I know you for  long time." He sincerely said.

"Thank you. You're the first genuine person who appreciates me." She smiled.

She looks at him.

"Shinichi I'm sorry If we left the music fest, I know you're having a good time there but I can't take it anymore... Ryusuke is my Ex Boyfriend. We dated for 3 years. We secret our relationship because his manager told me that I'm no good in his side. That my image is too much for Ryusuke's career so we secret it from public, he makes me feel I'm so special and I'm the only one he will love. He even promised to me that he will marry me and he will never leave me, everything is so perfect, we manage to stay for that long because we really love each other but then his manager decided to force him to fake date Yoko. And that's where he started to distance himself on me and started to be cold. He never bother to call and message me like he used to be." Her tears started to fall again.

"And then one day I went to his house, i missed him. I need to know if he's alright because I can't contact him, i barged into his room and see him and Yoko are having s*x. I walk towards Yoko and slapped her face hard. Ryusuke was the one who got mad because I barged inside his room, he held my wrist and let me go outside his place. He told me that he doesn't want to me with anymore but I begged him not to leave me because I really really love him, that I'm willing to forget and forgive him but he told me he doesn't feel the same way anymore And he already fell inlove with Yoko. He is my only happiness and he leave me. So when he proposed to Yoko in the music fest earlier I can't control my feelings anymore so I have to go out or else people will notice me crying." She open up.

Shinichi gets his handkerchief and wipes her tears away.

"It's ok to cry when you're not totally fine. It will ease your pain somehow." He smiled.

"Don't get mad but Ryusuke is ugly he look like a goat Sh*t." He said.

They both laughed. Shinichi and Shiho stays in the building for a while and shared a random stories. They learned something about each other. Shiho is feeling better.

'I'm lucky I met you Shinichi.' Her thoughts.
