After work, I checked my pager and found a pager from Yukiko Okada. After dialing, she said that she was with Shinichi Iwahashi.

"I came to work in the recording studio today and worked a little overtime. Iwahashi-san said that as compensation for overtime work, he would treat me to dinner." Okada Yukiko told her on the phone.

Talking about this matter in such detail, Nakamori Akina was amused by her tone, so she also told her that she hadn't had dinner yet.

As a result, Okada Yukiko said "wait a minute" and after a while, asked her if she wanted to have dinner together.

"And Iwahashi-san too..." Okada Yukiko seemed to be quite happy that Nakamori Akina could get to know Iwahashi Shinichi.

When she said this, Akina Nakamori remembered that when she went to her retirement concert, she and Shinichi Iwahashi realized backstage that neither of them had told Yukiko Okada about their acquaintance.

This misunderstanding is funny when I think about it, and I feel a little embarrassed because I kept it from Okada Yukiko.

"Is that okay?" Yukiko Okada asked.

Akina Nakamori agreed.

After hanging up the phone, her manager Ben asked her, "Where are we going next? Let's have something to eat first. The show was recorded continuously for almost six hours."

As an agent, his stomach was growling.

Akina Nakamori told him that she was going to Meguro's restaurant and "I made an appointment to meet Yukiko."

…

On the way here, Akina Nakamori remembered the letter she received from Shinichi Iwahashi.

To be precise, what she received was not a letter, but a package. After opening it, it contained Dreamsetrue's new single, and also included a card with "Tasting Thoughts".

In addition, there is another letter.

Sending DreamseTrue's new single is almost like revealing your identity. When Nakamori Akina received such a package, she felt a subtle tacit understanding in her heart.

Opening the letter, the content of the letter was similar to the letter she sent. It had no theme and was like chatting, talking about trivial things.

But it's not all trivial matters.

In the letter, Shinichi Iwahashi told her that he was preparing to set up a record company.

"So, now is the time to work hard." Shinichi Iwahashi wrote in the letter. "Establishing a record company feels like opening a certain door."

Akina Nakamori saw in her heart that he wrote to establish a record company, and was surprised by him. She never expected that he would do such a big thing in such a short period of time.

But in my heart, after being surprised, I couldn't help but think of Shinichi Iwahashi who said "Success!" and then high-fived her when they first met at the Qiongjit Budokan concert venue.

With Shinichi Iwahashi like this, Akina Nakamori truly believed that he could succeed and never doubted his resilience.
