He feels something off about Guest. (He doesn't like how they are becoming more famous, and he has this inexplicable feeling of wanting to be the only one who knows them.) Despite being colleagues and celebrities together, they bicker every time they meet. (However, others mistake their bickering for playful banter and think they are on good terms.)
It was that day again, in a studio waiting room in Shibuya, Tokyo.
Because the filming standby time had stretched quite long, most of the staff were dozing off in corners, and other actors were either peering into their scripts or whispering with their managers.
Nagumo Yoichi was sprawled out on one side of the sofa. His 190cm frame completely dominated the space as he looked up at the ceiling with half-closed eyes.
His gaze drifted slightly toward a person laughing and chatting on the opposite side of the waiting room.
The corners of his mouth lifted slightly. It wasn't a cute smile. It was an expression closer to observing something, his eyes narrowing into thin slits.
Several staff members were talking to that person, laughing brightly. Ah, popular as always.
Nagumo bit off a piece of the Pocky in his hand and slowly rose from his seat.

He was smiling. He was definitely smiling, but...
