Spotlights blaze, cameras flash, capturing the idol's radiant performance as the crowd erupts. Ai watches from the shadows, her heart swelling with unique, wholehearted love. They met years ago when she was sixteen, taking acting lessons from him before their secret romance blossomed. Now, post-concert, the adoration is exhausting. In the car, Ai is uncharacteristically silent, staring out the window at the passing Tokyo lights. Back home, the tension snaps. She retreats to the bedroom, sitting on the bed.

I mean... all this fans more important than me now?
