November 27, 2010

Last Saturday Shida Mirai (17) was a guest on the NTV talk show "Meringue no Kimochi". She was really adorable and talked a lot about her marriage wishes, pocket money and more.

On the show she revealed the "jibun nenpyo" (my chronology) she wrote to herself when she was 10 years old. In there she wrote things like, "With 19 I want to work and make lots of money" and other interesting things. "I want to save up a lot of money for my marriage ceremony," she explained. When talking about how she yearns to be a bride, Hisamoto Masami asked her, "When do you want to get married?", and she answered, "When I'm 24." "You are still 17z9 now, but you will be 24 in no time," the 50 year-old still-single Hisamoto responded which almost seemed like a self-lecture.

After that they watched a home-video made by Shida in which she introduced her cow piggybank. "What are you saving for?" Hisamoto asked her and she once again answered that it's all for her marriage. "You really want to get marry, don't you," Hisamoto commented. "I really do," Shida continued to reveal her true feelings. They asked her why she wants to get married that much and she said, "Whenever I look at mom and dad, I feel it must be really nice to be married."

Since they already started talking about saving up money and her piggybank, Shida also revealed that she gets ¥9000 ($100) pocket money each month. Comedienne Tomochika also was a guest on the show and asked her what things she likes to buy with those ¥9000 every month and Shida answered, "I try not to use it as much as possible and put everything into my marriage funds instead."

With such a burning desire to have a wonderful wedding, you can only wish for her to that it will come true. I doubt that the money is really going to be a problem, since she's obviously earning way more than ¥9000 per month. By the time she gets married, she will probably have full access to all the earnings she made while being a child/teen actor. I wonder how soon I will able to write about her marriage here…

'2010 huh... she's twenty four now... so I guess she's planning on marrying soon... Wonder who'll be the lucky guy...'

Yamada Ryosuke dropped the old magazine he was reading and stood up.

"Chisato-san, I'll be going now. Thanks for the coffee!" He shouted to the old lady in the coffee shop. Chisato-san smiled at the young man and wave goodbye.

Ryosuke made his way to the street. He walked down the street in the direction of Sagami River, carrying a load of bread. It was a fine spring day.

'Shida Mirai huh...' Ryosuke thought as he saw for the millionth time, the billboard of the said female actor across the street.

'Of course, I've seen her films, dramas... and always thought she was, well, fabulous... but, you know, million miles from the world I live in.  Which is here, Kanagawa Prefecture, not a bad place to be...'

Ryosuke turned to a corner to see a full fruit market day. This was a regularity in this town.

'There's the market on weekdays, selling every fruit and vegetable known to man... Wow, the strawberries looks delicious...' he thought as he pass one fruit stand.

Ryosuke almost crashed when suddenly a door opened but he managed to avoid it. A man with tattoos exited through it.

'The tattoo parlour... with a guy outside who got drunk and now can't remember why he chose 'Daisuki
Ohno-kun'...'

Ryosuke sniggered. He continued walking and passed by the salon.

'The racial hair-dressers where everyone comes out looking like the Cookie Monster, whether they like it or not...'

And sure enough, a girl exited the salon with a huge threaded blue bouffant.

Ryosuke turned another corner. He was going back home... just taking some detours through his favorite town...

'What's great is that lots of friends have ended up in this part of Japan...'

Ryosuke waved at a thin man in front of a newly built building.

'That's Inoo, architect turned chef, who recently invested all the money he ever earned in a new restaurant...'
Inoo was setting out a board outside his restaurant, the sign still being painted.

'So this is where I spend my days and years in this small village in the middle of a city... in a house with a blue door that my girlfriend and I bought together... before she left me for a man who looked like Haruma Miura, only even handsomer...'

Ryosuke smiled bitterly as he looked up to his house.

'... and where I now lead a strange half-life with a lodger called...'

"Ryuu!"

Ryosuke made his way through the mess in his living room. Many things were scattered on the floor.

Ryuu appeared by the stairs wearing a very distracted face. His hair was unruly and he was holding a couple shirts.

"Ryosuke, you're back... Hey, you couldn't help me with an incredibly important decision, could you?" Ryuu asked.

"This is important in comparison to, let's say, whether they should cancel third world debt?" Ryosuke asked with a serious face.

"That's right. I'm at last going out on a date with the Mio and I just want to be sure I've picked the right t-shirt." Ryuu said equally serious, still distracted.

"What are the choices?" Ryosuke asked.

"Well... wait for it..." Ryuu said and then he pulled on a shirt. "First there's this one..."

The t-shirt was white with a horrible looking plastic alien coming out of it, jaws open, blood everywhere.  It says 'I Love Blood.'

"Yes... might make it hard to strike a really romantic note." Ryosuke said.

"You think so? I just though I want to be casual..." Ryuu said.

"You're not very good at this, aren't you?" Ryosuke said.

"That's why I'm asking for help..." Ryuu grumbled...

Ryuu headed back up the stairs. After a while he came back with a new shirt.

"I suspect you'll prefer the next one." Ryuu said from upstairs and he re-enters in a white t-shirt, with lots of hearts, saying, 'You're the most beautiful woman in the world.'

"Cool, huh?"

"Uhmm, Ryuu... Don't you have anything without anything written on it?" Ryosuke tried to ask.

"Eh? But wouldn't that be too plain?" Ryuu asked in return.

"Girls love plain." Ryosuke said convincingly.

"Oh, is that so? Then, I'll just wear that blue shirt my sister gave me." Ryuu said.

"Yeah, that'll be the best..." Ryosuke said.

And so, back up Ryuu goes. And after a moment he comes down wearing it, looking very ordinary and normal.

"Well, yes, that's perfect. Well done." Ryosuke said.

"Thanks.  Great.  Wish me luck." Ryuu said as he made his way out their house.

"Good luck." Ryosuke called to his back.

Ryosuke sighed and started to prepare to go out as well.

'And so it was just another hopeless Wednesday, as I set off through the market to work, little suspecting that this was the day which would change my life forever.'

Ryosuke stopped in front of an old small building.

'This is work, by the way, my little travel book shop... A small unpretentious store... named 'The Travel Book Co.'

He sighed... It would be another boring day.

'... which, well, sells travel books... and, to be frank with you, doesn't always sell many of those.'

He entered the building. It is a small shop, slightly chaotic, bookshelves everywhere, with little secret bits round corners with even more books.

Yuto, Ryosuke's best friend and business partner was already there.

Yuto waved enthusiastically at him. Ryosuke returned the wave and slowly went behind his desk.

"Classic.  Absolutely classic.  Profit from major sales push -- minus 347."  Ryosuke sighed yet again.

"Shall I go get a cappuccino?  Ease the pain." Yuto asked.

"I've just come from Chisato-san's but sure... better get me a half, though.  All I can afford."

"I get your logic.  Demi-capu coming up." Yuto said.

He salutes and bolts out the door and as he does, a woman walks in. Ryosuke only saw a glimpse of her.

Ryosuke started working, organizing files and books. He looks up casually and sees something.

He stared for a while, face showing no feelings and after a pause...

"Uhmm... Can I help you?" He asked the woman, nervously.

It was Shida Mirai, the biggest movie star in the world, here, in his shop.

The most divine, subtle, beautiful woman on earth. Ryosuke wanted to pinch himself, assure himself this wasn't a dream but he fought the urge.

"No, thanks.  I'll just look around." Shida Mirai said.

"Fine." was all Ryosuke could say.

She wandered over to a shelf, Ryosuke's eyes never leaving her. Ryosuke saw her pick out a quite smart coffee table book.

"That book's really not good... just in case, you know, browsing turned to buying.  You'd be wasting your money." Ryosuke said to the silence.

"Really?" Mirai asked.

"Yes.  This one though is... very good." Ryosuke said as he pick up a book on the counter.

"I think the man who wrote it has actually been to Turkey, which helps. There's also a very amusing incident with a kebab." He added.

"Thanks.  I'll think about it." Mirai said taking the book.

But then Ryosuke suddenly looked away from her... he saw something odd on the small TV monitor beside him.

"If you could just give me a second." He said.

Her eyes follow him as he moves toward the back of the shop and approached a man in slightly ill-fitting clothes.

"Excuse me." Ryosuke said.

"Yes." The man replied.

"Bad news."

"What?"

"We've got a security camera in this bit of the shop." Ryosuke said.

"So?" The man retorted.

"So, I saw you put that book down your pants." Ryosuke said.

"What book?" The man said feigning ignorance.

"The one down your pants." Ryosuke repeated.

"I haven't got a book down my pants."

"Right... well, then we have something of an impasse.  I tell you what. I'll call the police and, what can I say? If I'm wrong about the whole book-down-the-pants scenario, I'll really apologize." Ryosuke said.

"Okay... what if I did have a book down my pants?"

"Well, ideally, when I went back to the desk, you'd remove the Cadogan guide to Bali from your pants, and either wipe it and put it back, or buy it.  See you in a sec."

He returned to his desk and set his eyes on the monitor again.

In the monitor, as Ryosuke said, the man took a book out of his pants and put it back on the shelves.  After that, the thief drifts out towards the door.

Mirai, who has observed all this, but pretending otherwise was looking at a blue book on the counter.

"Sorry about that..." Ryosuke said.

"No, that's fine.  I was going to steal one myself but now I've changed my mind.  Signed by the author, I see." Mirai said.

"Yes, we couldn't stop him.  If you can find an unsigned copy, it's worth an absolute fortune." Ryosuke tried to joke.

She smiled.  Suddenly the thief was there.

"Excuse me." The man said.

"Yes." Mirai replied primly.

"Can I have your autograph?" The man asked, holding out a piece of paper.

"What's your name?" Mirai asked as she took the piece of paper.

"Saeki."

Mirai smiled and signed his scruffy piece of paper.  She returned the paper to Saeki.

"What does it say?" Saeki asked trying to read the paper.

"Well, that's the signature," Mirai said, pointing. "...and above, it says 'Saeki-san, you belong in jail.'" Mirai said still with her smile.

"Nice one.  Would you like my phone number?" Saeki said.

"Tempting but... no, thank you." Mirai said and completely ignored the man after that.

She turned to Ryosuke.

"I think I will try this one." She said. She handed Ryosuke a 1000 yen bill and the book he said was rubbish.

"Oh, right..." Ryosuke said, taking the bill and the book. "...on second thoughts maybe it wasn't that bad. Actually, it's a sort of masterpiece really. None of those childish kebab stories you get in so many travel books these days.  And I'll throw in one of these for free."

He dropped in one of the signed books.

"Very useful for lighting fires, wrapping fish, that sort of things." he finished.

She looks at him with a slight smile.

"Thanks." Mirai said.

After that Shida Mirai left the store.  She's out of his life forever.  Ryosuke was a little dazed.

Seconds later Yuto comes back in.

"Cappuccino as ordered." He said.

"Thanks.  I don't think you'll believe who was just in here." Ryosuke said, still in a daze.

"Who?  Someone famous?" Yuto asked.

But then Ryosuke snapped out of his daze and suddenly he didn't want to tell Yuto. Well, he might not believe him, anyway. "No. No one... no one."

Yuto just shrugged. The two set about drinking their coffees.

'Why does it feels like I now know how Cinderella felt when the clock strikes 12?'

To be continued xD
