Enough is Enough

                                    

                                          
Kara walked into Shinning agency with Eiichi while wearing a pair of expensive looking sunglasses and a scarf. They were smiling as she held onto his arm. To the outside world, they still looked like the same perfect couple from two years ago. However, they have no idea what went on between the two behind closed doors.
                          
"Have fun working on the song. I'll see you at home," Eiichi said before kissing her temple.
                          
"Thanks, I'll try not to keep you waiting..."She didn't look at him when she spoke. She prefers to pretend that the nice voice sill belonged to her beloved of two years.
                          
"Do more than just try. Actually come home on time," He held her chin between his fingers to make her look at him, "Understood?" What appeared to be a tender moment, was actually him establishing dominance over her and reminding her what would happen if she came home later than 8:30.
                          
It hurt. His hold was tighter than it looks, "O-of course my darling...I don't want to be away from you long." She inwardly sighed in relief when he stopped squeezing and left her be. Kara continued walking to the room where she was meeting with her composer.
                          
Guess you're wondering why I'm still with Eiichi after that Chris Brown/ Ike Turner /Joker crap he pulled on me... Or why I didn't leave him while I still have one good eye working? Well, it's because after it happened, he cried. He actually cried after punching me in the face twice. Rai never did that so it must mean he cares and didn't mean to lose control like that. Control that's what I gave him in hope that he doesn't loose his mind. So far it's working...He bought me some clothes from Hitachiin this morning and every girl dreams of wearing beautiful things. 
When I found my usual work room, I was surprised to not find my usual composer. Instead, it was that STARISH composer. What was her name again? Haruhi Nanase... no that's not right. Ah, I remember Haruka Nanami. Why is she here?
                          
"Um hey...Am I in the wrong room?" Kara asked with a light chuckle. She knew this was her room but it would be rude to flat out say 'What are you doing in my work room?'.
                          
"Oh, Yorokobi-san! Hello, I'm here to make a few songs for your next album," Haruka said with a bright smile from her seat on the piano.
                          
"W-What?! Are you sure you have the right idol? Yorokoshi is like two doors down from me." Kara finds it hard to believe that this sweet innocent person is going to be working on her album with her. If this is the same person that worked behind all those cheerful and motivational songs for STARISH and Quartet Night, then something's wrong.
                          
Haruka chuckled lightly and shook her head, "No, Shining-san said I'll be working with Supernova on the latest album."
                          
"And you do know that my style is a bit more...risqué, right?" Kara asked and the composer nodded with a slight blush. The idol just simple shrugged, "Okay let's get to work then."
                          
"Um, aren't you going to take your sunglasses off?" Haruka asked and Kara tensed up.
                          
"I'm sorry...I can't I have this horrible hangover and bright lights cause me pain," Kara said before walking to the piano.
                          
"Oh okay that's understandable I suppose ..." The composer clapped her hands together, "Let's get started!" The two were unproductive in making a concept for the song. Haruka didn't know Kara well enough and all of Haruka's ideas sounded like they came from a Disney princess movie. They both agreed to try spending time with each other during the first week so that the composer could understand where the idol was coming from. Their meeting adjourned and the girls left the room. Haruka saw STARISH down the hall and ran to give them a greeting before moving onward to find Tomo.
                          
It was Kara's turn to greet them since it's been a while since she has seen all of them at once.  She was surprised but laughed when Natsuki pulled her into a bear hug and spun her around. Everyone in that hall way got a surprise when Natsuki stop hugging Kara and saw the purple bruise that was revealed behind the skewed sunglasses. Actually, the reaction was more like this.
