Chapter 8 : “Elementary School Friends”

Kureha: “It’s really fun going on a shopping with you guys”

MC: “Sorry for making you two tag along..”

Kureha: “No worries! Since we will be the one who use it during training camp anyway. So it’s natural for us to help you!

Kureha: “Moreover, i can’t let manager carry a heavy luggage alone”

Kureha: “You think so too, right? Kaito”

Kaito: “...........”

Kureha: “Hey, do you still upset that you lose at rock, paper, scissors?”

Kaito: “I’m not. But because i lose, my time to practice decrease---”

MC: “I-i’m sorry….”

Kureha: “It’s okay, manager. Kaito is actually a bit happy to be able to go shopping together with you!”

Kaito: “huh? Is there something wrong with your head? How did you came up with that conclusion?”

Kureha: “Look~! You got mad~! It’s because i hit the bullseye, right?”

MC: “Eumm, both of you, fighting in the middle of the road is a bit…”

Kaito: “Sigh. Let’s buy what we need and end this already. I want to practice”

Kureha: “Ah, Kaito. Wait up~”

Kureha: “Let’s go, Manager!”

MC: “Okay!”

~

MC: “The next one is.. Buying a powdered drink from the drug store and..…”

Elementary School Classmate A: “Eh? Could it be you are…. Hoshino?”

Kureha: “Eh?”

Kureha: “Aah! Long time no see! Haven’t seen you guys since elementary school! How have you been?”

Elementary School Classmate A: “Yeah! We are doing well! And you also seems to be doing well, huh”

Kureha: “Yup!”

Elementary School Classmate B: “You became an idol now, right? I’m surprised to see you on the stage when i came to see Pre-star a while ago”

Kureha: “Ehehe, so you guys came to see!”

Elementary School Classmate A: “I never thought that you would become an idol”

Elementary School Classmate B: “I know right! We really can’t guess what will happen to people! I never expected you whom always quiet would become an idol”

Kaito: “Quiet? He is?”

Elementary School Classmate B: “By the way, how is Kureha?”

MC: “Eh?”

Kureha: “What are you guys saying~! I’m Kureha, you know! The real, Hoshino Kureha!”

Elementary School Classmate B: “Hm? Really?”

Kureha: “Yup! Ah, sorry, we are actually in a hurry so we will be going now!”

Elementary School Classmate A: “Ah, okay. See you!”

Kureha: “Yeah, see you! Come’on you guys, hurry up!”

MC: “Eh!? Ku-Kureha-kun?”

Kaito: “Oi!”

Elementary School Classmate A: “What’s up with him?”

Elementary School Classmate B: “Dunno?”

~

MC: “W-wait! Kureha-kun!”

Kureha: “What is it?”

Kaito: “Don’t play dumb. Those guys just now asked “How is Kureha?”, what does that mean?”

Kureha: “Aah… Err, that’s…”

Kureha: “On Pre-star a while ago, i said that i have a sibling, right?”

Kaito: “.........”

Kureha: “I’m actually talking about my older twin brother”

Kureha: “So those guys probably mistook me as my big brother”

Kaito: “But it’s really doesn’t looks like that”

Kureha: “Eeh~ Kaito you are overthinking”

Kaito: “On Pre-star a while ago, you said that “I also want to meet him..”, right? Where’s your big brother now?”

Kureha: “Hm? Somewhere far away…….”

MC: “Did your big brother went to different school?”

Kureha: “Well, yeah…. Something like that”

Kaito: “..........”

Kureha: “Alright, let’s finish our shopping already!”

Kaito: “He is…..”

MC: “Looks like he is hiding something from us, but more than this…..”

Kaito: “Yeah..”

Kureha: “Come’on guys, hurry up!”

MC: “We are going now!”

Kaito: “Sigh..”

Chapter 9 : “Nightmare”

Kureha: “Uuhh.. Uugh…”

???: “Hey”

Kureha: “Ng? I think i heard someone calling me…”

???: “Long time no see. It’s a relief to see you doing well”

Kureha: “Uwah! That surprised me….what’s the matter?”

???: “Sorry. I just wanted to ask you something”

???: “You practice hard until late everyday, right. I’m also watching you when you were practicing by yourself during holiday”

Kureha: “I see, so you are watching me. I have no confidence in my singing and dancing at first, but…”

Kureha: “Recently, little by little, i feel like i’m getting better at it!”

???: “I think you really got better compared to when you just entered idol club. Moreover, you are being chosen as the center, right? How cool~”

Kureha: “Ehehe, really? But since i’m being chosen as the center that means i have to work even more hard!”

???: “I see, that’s right. It’s decided that you will appear on TV too, right”

Kureha: “Yeah!”

Kureha: “I…. will definitely make our dream come true”

???: “Our dream, huh… That’s supposed to be Hoshino Kureha’s dream though”

Kureha: “Eh…..?”

???: “Is it really our dream? ….Not my dream alone?”

Kureha: “......uh”

???: “Well whatever. Today, i want to ask you something more important than that”

Kureha: “What is it?”

???: “Is it fun leading a happy life just by yourself….?”

~

Kureha: “...uh! Hah…. haah…. A dream...”

Kureha: “I understand… that i’m not supposed to be the first one…..”

Kureha: “Moreover….. Sigh..”

Kureha: “It’s still this hour, huh…. I don’t think i can sleep again..”

~

Kureha: “............”

Kureha: ‘Our dream…. Even though i’m supposed to work hard to make it come true…’

Kureha: ‘My dream now…. Is not our dream?’

Kureha: ‘Then, what is my dream…..’

.

Toya: “huh? Isn’t that Kureha over there?”

Aoi: “You’re right!”

Yuhi: “He usually with Kazuyuki-kun... but today he is alone…”

Toya: “Should we approach him?”

.

Kureha: “Sigh…”

Toya: “What makes you sighed like that?”

Kureha: “Eh? Ah, Toya-senpai…..”

Aoi: “What’s with you, where did your usual spirit go?”

Aoi: “It’s not like you at all”

Kureha: ‘not, like me…..’

Yuhi: “Kureha-kun, what’s wrong? Do you feel sick anywhere?”

Kureha: “N-no! It’s nothing”

Kureha: ‘I should be a decent Hoshino Kureha..!’

Yuhi: “Are you sure?”

Kureha: “Yeah! As you can see, i’m full of spirit!”

Kureha: “Since the chime has rang already, i’m going back to my class, okay”

Kureha: “Well then!” *runs*

Toya: “Is he really okay..?”

Aoi: “Somehow, he looks different than usual”

Yuhi: “Did something happen to Kureha-kun….”

~

Kureha: “I should, get ahold of myself…”

Chapter 10 : “Memory of the Past”

||

Haine: “Alright, you can take a break now”

MC: “Everyone, here’s a drink and towel”

Kazuyuki: “Thank you, manager!”

Kureha: “........”

Haine: “What’s up with Kureha?”

Haine: “He’s usually really noisy but today he’s awfully quiet”

MC: “He’s been like that recently. Even though we ask what’s wrong with him, he only said that there’s nothing wrong..”

MC: “He seems to be in a low spirit so everyone is worried about him…”

Haine: “After Toya, now Kureha, huh? Trouble seems to come one after another in this group”

MC: “What should we do?”

Haine: “The person himself said that there’s nothing wrong so there’s nothing we can do”

MC: “You have a point, but...”

Haine: “But, look after him from now on too”

MC: “I understand”

~

Later…

~

Kureha: “Can’t everyone come already…..”

Kureha: “sigh…”

.

???: “What’s wrong? You kept on sighing. If you keep doing that, your happiness gonna run away, you know”

Kureha: “I know”

???: “If you know then smile! Come’on, smile happily like this!”

Kureha: “Fuh… somehow your face looks weird”

???: “Eeeh! Then i should also practice how to smile with you!”

.

Kureha: “Yeah, i understand. I’m smiling just as you said”

Kureha: “I’m….. smiling…”

Kureha: “...........”

.

???: “Rescue him first instead of me...!”

Kureha: “Eh? What are you saying….”

???: “it’s alright, they will also rescue me soon anyway! Moreover, you are injured, right?”

Kureha: “B-but…..”

.

Kureha: “I beg you… i beg you…. please open your eyes….. Don’t leave me alone..! Hey, Kureha!!”

???: “........”

.

MC: “Kureha-kun….. Kureha-kun!”

Kureha: “Ku….. reha….. Kureha!”

MC: “!?”

Kureha: “Ah….”

MC: “Are you okay? It looks like you just had a nightmare….”

Kureha: “I’m….. so, i fell asleep..”

MC: “Eumm… just now what do you mean by ‘Kureha’...”

Kureha: “!”

Toya: “what, you guys are awfully early”

MC: “Toya-san…”

Toya: “Hm? Did something happen?”

Kureha: “I-it’s nothing! Toya-senpai is late, huh”

Toya: “Really? Okay then”

Kureha: “....Manager, can i talk with you for a bit after practice is over?”

MC: “Okay..”

~

Kureha: “Sorry, for asking you to come here”

MC: “It’s okay. You want to talk about what happened in the club room, right?”

Kureha: “Yeah. Up until now, i’ve been showing you many strange things so i think it’s no use to hide it from you anymore..”

Kureha: “If it stayed like this, i feel like i’m going to make you unnecessarily worried about me so i want to properly talk to you…. About myself”

MC: “You are not pushing yourself, right? You don’t have to be considerate to me…”

Kureha: “Remembering about the past scare me a little, but.. Because it’s you, i want you to listen to me”

Kureha: “The thing that i’ve been hiding up until now...”

MC: “I understand..”

Kureha: *inhales* *exhales*

MC: “I will always wait. So, it’s okay even if it’s after you have sorted out your feeling”

Kureha: “Thanks. But, i’m okay”

Kureha: “Err, i think since we went to shopping a while ago you have always been wondering… about my name”

MC: “It will be a lie if i said i’m not wondering about it..”

Kureha: “The thing that i’ve been hiding, that is.. the secret about my name..”

Kureha: “My name is not ‘Hoshino Kureha’.”
