Erica can’t help but still wonder as to what, why and how did things ended the way they are. She is currently preparing Miyagawa-sensei's stuff for the upcoming photoshoot with the members of Arashi.
“Stop looking at my stuff as if they’ll give out answers to your questions” MIyagawa told Erica from behind her.
Erica turned to face her sensei and said “And how exactly did you know that” and as if mocking him, Erica crossed her arms in front of her.
Miyagawa smiled at her and pointed to her right where a large mirror was slightly adjusted to barely see Miyagawa’s stuff.
And with that Erica’s question were answered. “Now, if you could just stop sulking and just be your natural self then it would be wonderful”
With a sigh and a simple “How in the world did my trip turn out to be like this?” Erica grab one of his sensei’s professional camera for adjustment.
~Flashback~
“Hajimemashite Arashi-san” Erica greeted with a respectful bow.
“Hajimemashite Erica-chan, Aiba Masaki desu~” Aiba-chan cheerfully greeted back as he walked towards Erica to shake her hands. Erica was dumbfounded by his gesture but instead of pulling away, she smiled sweetly and greeted back.
“Hajimemashite, Matsumoto Jun desu” Jun greeted after Aiba-chan returned to Sho’s side, Erica unconsciously took a step back which didn’t went unnoticed to Jun “Gomen, I didn’t mean to scare you earlier” with his sincere apology, Erica smile nodding that she understood”
“Ninomiya Kazunari, Yoroshiku” With a boyish grin, wink and informal salute, Nino greeted back. Erica giggled at the guy’s childishness
“Hajimemashite, Boku wa Sakurai Sho desu, yoroshiku onegaishimasu” Sho formally greeted back with a wide smile and a slight nod of his head. Erica bowed her head slightly as a sign of acknowledgement with a smile on her face.
“Ohno Satoshi desu~, yoroshiku ne~” Ohno playfully said, earning a light slap from Nino. When Ohno look at him for answers, “Don’t sound as if you’re on air” was Nino’s explanation. Earning a giggle from Erica.
“Erica-san, you said that you caught a picture of them earlier correct?” Ando Ryo asked Erica once the exchange of greetings were done.
“Hai” Erica shyly answered, tightly holding the camera on her hand. “Can we see it?” Ando continued.
Erica was quite troubled and seeing this Miyagawa intervene. “Ando, it’s in Erica’s policy to see what she has taken first before anyone else which is why I’m afraid that you can’t” Hearing this, Erica sighed in relief “Although, she can developed it on the studio right now for you everyone to see”
“Eh?!” Erica reacted while the two older men nodded and Arashi smiled in satisfaction. “That would be a good idea” Omora Ken agreed.
“Then it’s decided” Miyagawa clapped his hand “No!” Erica protested “Not for a second time sensei” She continued as she walk away from her sensei.
“Second time?” Miyagawa seemed confuse at first but gradually he understood “It was for your project in NPI and besides, we can’t have you preventing us from seeing your work especially when your model is Okada Junichi of V6”
With Miyagawa’s explanation everyone looked at Erica with shocked. “Is that true” “Honto?” “Majide?” was thrown at her.
“What? It was only for our schools photoshoot and I didn’t want a person to model for me mind you” Erica defended. Upon hearing that Arashi burst in laughter while Ando and Omora questioned Miyagawa.
“Are you serious?” Jun asked in between laughter.
“She’s talking as if she doesn’t want anything to have to do with Okada-senpai” Sho added
“I’m so going to say this to Okada-senpai” Nino burst in laughter by just remembering what Erica said.
“Oh God! That has to hurt” Ohno said to Nino
“Ah! I so want to know what happened” Aiba exclaimed after he calmed down.
“What?” Erica asked in confusion.
And is if asking her question, Ando explained “Okada Junichi is Arashi’s senpai and a close friend of theirs”
Erica’s attention turned towards the three older men, who happens be looking at Miyagawa’s Ipad, and to be more precise her photo assignment of Okada Junichi back then.
The photo assignment that Erica was assigned to was to take Okada Junichi’s unexpected side that the world doesn’t usually see. But here’s the catch, Erica doesn’t know anything about him which is why she randomly took the picture that she thought was good enough.
And for her to do that, she asked Miyagawa if she can take Okada-kun outside for a photoshoot. At first, Miyagawa declined it since it was dangerous to do so being as Okada is a member V6, a famous group of Johnny’s and Associates but when Erica had told him that she’ll be willing to take the photoshoot somewhere private as long as it’s in a house.
And so the photoshoot was held at Miyagawa’s private home in Tokyo. Okada-san arrived at the place an hour earlier than the expected time but Erica didn’t mind and still loitered around to house to inspect instead of starting the shoot.
When Erica decided where the shoot shall take place, she still didn’t inform Okada-san and just casually converse with him. Erica wanted him to fully relax, for him to forget that it was a photoshoot and just open up to her. Okada didn’t mind at all and conversed with her.
They were already at the garden and yet they still didn’t even for once took a picture at all. Miyagawa was watching them and yet he can’t exactly read what was Erica thinking but when he saw Okada leaning at the fence, his right hand is being leaned by his head.
At that moment, Miyagawa caught a glimpse of Erica readying her camera. They talk for a bit more and when Okada was about to fully smile, the snap of the camera captured the image that she wanted.
And with that, Erica told Okada that she was already done with a smile, Okada was surprised at first but it turned to amusement. They bid farewell and Erica gave the photo to Miyagawa and pack her stuff then left the house.
And that very picture is being shown to the two older men. “Woah! Is that the picture? I want to see” Aiba excitedly said. The other’s followed suit and grabbed the Ipad of Miyagawa as they check the picture.
“You got talent” Omora complimented her. Although the compliment didn’t made Erica happy at all. “Why don’t you let her help you Miyagawa-san?” He suggested.
“With this, we can continue the photoshoot without any problem” Ando added. Miyagawa smiled at the idea and agreed and when Erica was about to protest, Arashi cut her off and said “We look forward to working with you” in perfect sync.~End of Flashback~
And that’s the reason why she landed to where she is right now. Erica took a few snap of the camera to check the light’s effect.
“At least, you’re policy wasn’t broken. Besides on the next term you’ll be working like this” Miyagawa told her.
“Why can’t you understand that I hate taking people’s picture?” Erica questioned, still adjusting the camera.
“It’s because you have the talent for it and I’m sure you’ll be able to like it soon enough” was his answer but he knew that Erica, unconsciously love taking people’s photo, which is why he want’s her to accept that side of her.
Erica check the time on her watch, to find that that it was already 5:30 in the afternoon. 30 minutes left before Arashi arrives and an hour or so before she could live the place.
But unbeknown to her, it was her first project as a professional photographer and Miyagawa is keeping it a secret from her.
