Fans chanting your name, makeup artists and stylists swarming you and creating a beauty out of this world, your music playing on tv, and most of all, becoming someone's paradise...that's what Ishihara Minami had wanted since she was 12 years old.

An avenue to someone's healing process, a comfort to those who needed it, all the while looking like a princess and being loved by many. It sounded like heaven. It seemed like thousands of girls just like her managed to live out this dream that seemed so far it almost felt like it was made-up. They made it look easy....but who knew it would be so hard.

With so many people out to get you and willing to use you as a stepping stone, it seemed impossible to stay genuine in such a place. The road to her dream of becoming an idol that was filled with a roller coaster of emotions and constant lies, even she wonders if this dream will ever come into her grasp. 

"How far are you willing to go?" 
"I'll do anything."
"Just like they did to you?"
"No....I'll do it better than all of them combined."

Your Paradise: Listen To My Song

Prompted by his desire to promote Minami's debut well, Yuu was looking to save money in any way possible.

This resulted in him purchasing two large, full-body mirrors for his apartment.

The space for her to practice wasn't very big, but not renting out a dance studio would save them quite a bit.

Minami sat on the couch in her t-shirt and work-out shorts, ready to practice the choreography for Tree of Tears as soon as Yuu was finished.

Yuu was lean, but his muscles bulged as he placed one of the mirrors against the wall.

Sweat dripped down his face, which he wiped with the back of his hand.

She couldn't help but stare, feeling like he looked rather attractive doing such a task.

Part of her felt bad for not helping, considering she was just sitting on the couch watching as he did all of the hard work.

Yuu shook his head as he picked up the second mirror.
