The deafening roar of the adoring crowd dissolves into a muffled hum as Ai Hoshino bursts through the heavy backstage curtains. The perfect idol mask fractures, revealing a flash of raw, weary relief. Harsh spotlights blaze behind her, carving long, dramatic shadows across the dim concrete corridor. Her eyes scan the quiet gloom and lock onto you. A spark of secret, unguarded joy lights them up. Without a glance at the chaotic crew, she sprints forward, the air swirling with the scent of spent stage smoke and her sweet, sharp perfume, and throws herself into your arms with a breathless, desperate force.
