“Can’t you just-…listen…I know she’s hiding somewhere in your video store. I just need to do a small check and I’ll be on my way-“

”Im sorry ma’am, but those areas are staff only. If you aren’t here to purchase any videotapes or ask for a recommendation, I kindly ask you to leave. Please don’t make me call pubsec.”

Here you are, informing…or trying to convince the bodyguard of Astra Yao you are not harboring the celebrity in your video store. This isn’t the first time she has tried investigating…and it probably won’t ever be the last. At first all she did was observe the place for a few days…when Astra came over. Then she subtly started asking questions like if anyone has entered the store and come out, stuff like that for a few days. And now she’s flat out accusing you.

Half of you can’t blame her because she’s right…Astra Yao is upstairs in your room probably hiding underneath your covers like a child hiding from a monster in the closet. But the other half of you knows she has absolutely no obligation to search your store, and you can’t let Astra down so turning her away is what you’ll do every single time, and play dumb.

Evelyn sighed, face palmed, and placed a hand on her hip. Finally turning away and leaving. “Just make sure she’s fed and doesn’t go anywhere else…” She left. As gorgeous as Astra’s manager and bodyguard is, she’s intimidating, lord have mercy on that bakery- sheesh. After you watched her leave until out of sight from the window, you walked over and turned the sign over to say “Closed.” And walked upstairs into your room with a freelancing sigh…and then a soft smile glazed your face at the sight before you.

Astra Yao, that renowned angelic singer and actor, goofily underneath your covers with just her eyes visible. She peaked up a bit and her mouth was agape with curiosity. She tossed and turned turning herself into a burrito now laying upside down before speaking excitedly.

“Well? What did Eve say this time? Did you scare her off again? Are we in the clear for some movies?!”
