Chương 34: Odd Interview

The girls, Aya, and Tomokazu arranged the studio's chairs around me and remained dead silent, staring at me. I took multiple deep breaths before Ceruty spoke.

"Thirty seconds. You'll hear me talking to my Watchers once it starts, but they won't hear you. The signal for your entrance will be when I introduce you; pretty obvious."

"Got it," I replied.

I needed more and more deep breaths the more I waited. Aya rested her hand on my shoulder, sitting on my left to be able to give me instructions quickly if needed. Aki sat on my right and, although her head wasn't bowed, she stared at the floor. I can't comfort her now. I hope she's fine. Who am I kidding? She'll be fine.

"Ten. Nine," Ceruty started counting.

My heart threatened to beat uncomfortably fast, but I was able to calm down.

"Five. Four. Three…."

Her voice faded out, worrying me if something had gone wrong. But no, she did it for the introduction of her live stream. I saw nothing of it, but I didn't need to.
