You had another of the precognition dreams. You dreamt of a time when you were young and often locked up in a room. Amidst the loneliness, there was teddy bear who was always there to cheer you up. It is beginning to seem like you didn’t have a very happy past.

After a short private chat with Kiro on social media, he invites you to join him on the film set for Project X to help you with your next variety show assignment which was currently drawing a blank. You hoped that with exposure to one of the most popular variety shows, you would be able to get some inspiration for your next variety show commissioned by Loveland TV, your biggest client now.

You received a call from Lucien. He told you that one of your favourite movies was having a premiere showcase at the cinema this Saturday. When you told him you would be visiting the film set for Project X for work, he asked if Sunday would work for you. You replied positively but didn’t want to impose by getting the organiser to change the timing. Lucien said it was no problem – it would be a private viewing specially just for two of you afterall.

Saturday came and you had prepared pudding for Kiro. Upon arriving at the set, you met with various obstacles getting entrance and was also being snubbed by the crew members of the show when you approached them for an interview. This all changed when Kiro appeared and put in a good word for you, calling you his favourite producer.

To be honest, Kiro is super nice and sweet to you. And it really begs the question of why being as popular and famous as he is, would he be interested in a small fry like you and go out of his way to help you. Could it really be just to repay you for that super ultra rare card, or was he really just so eager to have a friend that he needn’t put up a pretense with?

As you continued your tour of the set taking notes, you literally bumped into Victor who had been observing you. You were surprised to see him on set and chided him for being so annoyingly bored to tease you. He gave you a pointer or two about taking notes and even showed off his power by stopping time so that you could take in everything that is happening so quickly. Proud and arrogant, his teasing can really put you on the edge and I found myself calling him an a@#&*&# several times throughout the game. Whoever wrote Victor’s lines really know their way around totally annoying women.

However what was a playful gesture on his part revealed a new piece of information. Kiro is also an Evolver as he didn’t get frozen in time with Victor’s powers. We also learnt that Victor didn’t know who Kiro was which meant that Victor doesn’t watch television! Before he left, Victor advised you to keep the pudding you had made for Kiro in a fridge or it would spoil by the time Kiro had the chance to eat it.

By a strange twist of fate, you found yourself helping out as boom mike holder for Kiro for the rest of the production. As you observed Kiro at work, you were inspired by how professional he is, always striving to give his best. Later the crew went to the streets to continue filming the show. However the entire production was waylaid by Kiro’s fans so filming had to be halted. Just as you managed to squeeze your way through to the crew van, everyone found to their horror that Kiro had gone missing.

Amidst the panic between the security company, director and agent, you decided to embark on your own hunt for Kiro. Credit to you for your good intuition to spot Kiro disguised in a bear costume, giving out balloons to children passing by in a plaza. Kiro didn’t want the production to be halted just like this so he asked you for a favour to be his personal video man as he set about completing the task he needed for the variety show – which is to get an old grandma a cotton candy stick exactly the way she wanted. You agreed to help Kiro and what ensued throughout the rest of the afternoon was a delightful time spent between two young people working hard on a project and possibly the budding of new love.

In the end Kiro was able to complete his task through complete serendipity – trading up his balloon until he got a cotton candy stick from an old man at the plaza and having it totally melted down by the time he passed it to the grandma. Turned out she wanted a recollection of a memory of her husband. It also turned out that she was a Kiro fan and invited both of you to view her collection. You learnt that Kiro had started his career as an artiste way back when he was still a kid.

Having completed your task, both of you made your way back to the studio. Enroute, Kiro made sure to take photos with his fans who were still hunting for him while disguised in his bear costume. He also saved a couple of them from being scammed by a conman. At last you made it back to the studio, much to the relief of Kiro’s agent and the show director. Although the video turned out usable, both of you still got a lashing for the very dangerous and irresponsible stunt you pulled. Can’t help but feel like two young kids being scolded by their parents.

Despite everything, all’s well ends well. You suddenly remembered the pudding that you had made for Kiro and hurriedly retrieved it for him from the fridge. Unbeknownst to you though is that while you were out filming, Victor had replaced your pudding with another. For a moment I thought he had meant to poison Kiro or frame you for something. For a man like him to do such an act was a little mind blowing.

While Kiro was unable to give you a lift back, he got his agent to do so. His agent also passed you a box of chocolates and candies which both of you had collected throughout the day, making for a really sweet ending to the day. You also saw that Kiro had posted the photos he had taken with his fans in the bear costume, much to their delight. You felt that Kiro was like this radiant sunshine that brought so much joy to the people around him.

Before you ended the day, you received a call from Kiro who exclaimed that your pudding was so good that it tasted like the one from Souvenir, his favourite restaurant. You were puzzled by the outburst, never thinking that your pudding would actually taste that nice. Meanwhile, we see Victor eating the pudding you made and commenting that it was quite bad but nevertheless finishing it up. That was actually quite a cute ending to the chapter especially since this was pretty out of character for Victor. Later you received a call from him lambasting you for a shoddy business proposal and gave you one week to revise it and let him personally review it. Before he put down the phone, he asked if the pudding was indeed made by you.

By the end of this chapter, it dawned on me that the teddy bear that you dreamt about was actually referring to Kiro. Though there was no explicit connection, I was pretty sure that Kiro knew you from way back even though you couldn’t recognise him, which also explained why you are so special to him. What was puzzling though was Victor’s actions in swapping the pudding.

Kiro is the kind of person you would want to be great friends with. He is fun and cute, loyal and hardworking but given his somewhat naive personality, I’m not really sure he is of boyfriend material at this point.
