-          Sera-san? Can you come with us?

The next morning Tia was on her way to the Care Center when the four men appeared from nowhere. Though they asked her politely it was obvious that they won’t accept “no” as an answer.

The girl’s smile faded away as she nodded startled.

One of the men opened a black car’s door for her next to them. She got inside without further order.

-          Anosa… Where are you taking me? – She asked cautiously after a few minutes driving in silence.

-          Kitagawa-sama wants to speak with you – answered one of them without looking at her.

-          Kita…gawa…-sama…? – She repeated quietly.

It can’t be him… Why on earth the head of the Johnny’s Entertainment would want to speak with her? It’s ridiculous!

Tia stayed silent to the rest of the journey. Though her mind worked on lightspeed, especially on whom she could call to help her out of this mess, anything it is exactly…

-          O-ha-you, minna! – Aiba greeted his bandmates more than cheerful but only death silence answered to him. – Nani? – He asked confused a bit but still smiling brightly.

-          I can’t believe you did this!

Nino was the one who broke the silence and he sounded really, really, really angry.

-          Nanii? – The Miracle Boy whined this time unknown what he did wrong why Nino is this angry.

-          This! – The gamer through at him a magazine.

Aiba looked at the tabloid disbelieving. There were two pictures on both of them there were he and Tia. On the first he was just kissing him, and on the other he was holding her waist to pull her closer to him while they’re walking.

-          Aiba-chan, tell us that it’s only photoshopped… - Ohno said quietly with concern in his voice.

-          I… didn’t know… I wasn’t thinking… I…

-          You should learn till now, that they’re everywhere where we go… - Jun said silently which was worst than he would shouting at him. He sounded disappointed and it was understandable.

-          I told you, didn’t I? I told you he’ll mess up everything! – Nino shouted furious. – But you said we can trust in him. It’s your fault as well! – He said pointing at Sho who was silent ever since they saw the tabloids in the morning.

Aiba still stared at the pictures in front of him and tried to understand how could he let this happen? Jun was right; he should learn it till now that they’re everywhere…

-          Masaki… - Sho said softly and put his hand on his friends shoulder to get his attention. – What did happen? What’s the whole story? Tell us so maybe we can find out something…

-          Who cares what the story is? It’s pretty obvious what happened between this baka and that bitch? – Nino shouted.

-          Kazu, calm down! You couldn’t know… It’s just photos… - Riida tried to calm down his boyfriend before the gamer punches the other.

Aiba looked like he didn’t hear Nino’s outburst. He looked at Sho with a miserable expression.

-          We went to drink a coffee and talk. And she said she thinks I’m cute and I told her that she has to make it up for me… calling me cute. She didn’t want to but I insisted. Then she asked what should she do and I said I want her to kiss me. But I really didn’t think she’ll do it, because she was determined not to make up for me!

-          What the hell did you think? That fucking bitch is your freaking fangirl! Of course she won’t let slip away such a chance to kiss the SUPER-BAKA-IDOL- Aiba-Masaki!

-          Nino! – Ohno, Jun and Sho said in a union.

The gamer went silent at the moment but threw death glares at everyone.

-          We all will be fired or suspended at least because of him. You’ll see it, just wait! – He muttered.

-          Masaki, you know that with this not just you, but Arashi and she got into trouble as well?

-          Johnny-san sure won’t be happy if he sees it… - Ohno said concern.

-          If he haven’t seen it already… - Jun added; Riida and Sho nodded.

-          Douzo!

Tia never felt herself such nervous when she opened the door. She didn’t have any idea what Jhonny Kitagawa would want from her but she had a bad feeling about it and it only grew bigger with every step she made from the building’s front door till this office.

-          Ohayou gozaimasu! – Tia bowed deeply after she closed the door.

When she slowly straightened up she noticed that the man observe him from behind his desk.

-          So this is you… - he said finally. – I guess you know why I want to meet with you…

-          No, sir, I have no idea – Tia answered politely.

The man tsk-ed and dropped a magazine at the table and signed her to look at it.

She stepped closer to take a look at it but she dropped it the very moment she picked up and saw the tabloids. She looked up at Johnny with a horrified expression.

-          I don’t like when gaijin girls mess up with my boys work. And this is exactly what you did. So you have to understand that I can’t let it go. Aiba’s work decreased in the latest months already before you appeared. His work just started to rise to it’s normal state but this incident with you can break his career for ever… - he said on a serious, warning tone.

-          Please, sir, don’t punish Aiba-san! This is entirely my fault. I promise I won’t go anywhere near him or anyone from Arashi or others from your employees. But please, don’t punish him! – She begged.

-          Of course you’ll stay away from them, because you leave the country. The sooner the better – Johnny said matter-of-factly.

Tia looked at him unbelieving what she just heard.

-          You should know that I can do it…

-          I believe it, but please, don’t make me leave Japan! This is my home more than two years… Onegaishimasu! I have nowhere to go back from here! I won’t make any trouble again, I promise! – She put aside all her pride and kneeled down front of this man. – Hontouni onegaishimasu!

The silence was felt heavier with each passed minutes. Tia didn’t dare to look up knowing all her life what she built up here alone, from her own strength; it was all in the hands of this man who hated her openly.

-          I don’t trust you or in any of your promises but I give one chance. One and only. I let you stay in Japan but you have to leave Tokyo and that would be even better if you leave Honshu Island as well. It’s the only opportunity I can imagine you to stay away and which way I can think that you won’t make trouble for me again. I give you two month to leave the city. If you’ll be at the capital at that time I’ll make that you never ever can step into this country again in your life – he warned her. – Now leave! I have to cover up your mistake…

With this the man turned back to his work. Tia quickly got up, silently bowed and run out of not just the office but the whole building.

Once she was outside all the strength left her legs and she fell on her knees. She couldn’t believe this happening. After two years she has to leave behind everything and once again start all from the nothing. The only thing, which made this situation a little better, that she could protect Aiba. She almost wanted to laugh. How stupid she was! How could she believe that everything will go smoothly? Life isn’t a dorama or a fairytale where the rich guy and the poor girl fell for each other and they live happily ever after.

-          Too bad I fell for you already… - she whispered to none in particular.

What seemed to a lifetime she gathered enough strength to stand up and go home. Just when she decided it…

-          Yuuki-chan!

She stunned at the familiar husky voice.

Aiba stood there a few meters from her. When she looked at him he wanted to come closer but Tia held up her hand to stop him.

-          Don’t! Just… go back… please… - she said with tears in her eyes.

-          Nande? – Aiba asked with pain in his eyes.

-          For everything… hontouni arigatou gozaimashta – she said with a fake smile then turned around and run away.

-          Wait, Tia! – Aiba shouted her real name, for the first time.

He wanted to run after her but someone held back him.

-          Don’t do it, Masaki or you’ll ruin what she sacrificed for your sake – Sho said softly and lead back to the dressing room his sobbing friend.
