My daily life with the original diva

Using an album to commemorate their love is something only her Hongjun could do. She felt so sweet inside, and she couldn't wait to see her Hongjun right now.

"Hmph, no way. He's been keeping so many things from me, how can I go see him so soon? I'll go tomorrow. Hmm, my dark circles are so bad right now, I can't go. I have to go in perfect condition." Thinking of Nakamori Akina, he walked around the corner.

The two assistants, who were gossiping, stopped abruptly when they saw Nakamori Akina approaching. Michiko greeted her somewhat flusteredly, "Akina-san, hello."

"Hello, Ms. Michiko. By the way, how has Kimura-san been lately? Has anything happened to him?" Nakamori Akina replied with a smile, taking the opportunity to inquire about Kimura Hiroshi's condition.

“Ah, that’s good. Kimura-san is doing well lately,” Michiko replied.

"That's good, Ms. Noriko. Let's go. I'm too tired and want to go back and rest as soon as possible." At this moment, Nakamori Akina just wanted to go back and get a good night's sleep so she could meet her Hiro-kun in a refreshed state. As for the good-looking late-night TV programs, sorry, she had to say goodbye to them for today.

Chapter 198 Hong Jun Can Be Bad Sometimes

"Having too many choices isn't always a good thing!" Kimura Hiroshi complained with a wry smile and some frustration. He looked at the numerous musical scores he had written on the table last night and this morning, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.

If it's just an album aimed at high sales, then filling it with good songs is enough. But if it's an album meant to be a memento of his love, Hiroshi Kimura is in a dilemma. He can't decide which songs to choose.

After all, once a song is selected and published, it cannot be changed. If you feel that the selection was not good in the future and feel regretful, it will not be a pleasant thing. Instead, it will become a hurdle in your heart, and the feeling may not be very pleasant.

"Ding-dong, ding-dong!" Just as he was thinking about whether to go have lunch first and come back to think about it, the doorbell rang. Kimura Hiroshi immediately stood up from his chair, checked the time, and said with a hint of doubt, "It should be Akina. But why is she here so early? Weren't we supposed to be here in the afternoon?"

As he walked to the door and looked through the peephole, he saw Akina Nakamori wearing sunglasses. She was making a fist gesture at the peephole, seemingly annoyed that he hadn't opened the door yet.

She quickly opened the door, and when Nakamori Akina saw Kimura Hiroshi, she sighed, "Hiroshi-kun, do you know how hot it is outside? It took you so long to open the door for your girlfriend?"

Huh? He clearly came to open the door as soon as he heard the doorbell, and only took a few seconds to look outside. How come it took so long? Kimura Hiroya was about to speak up and give himself a slight rebuttal.

Then they heard Akina Nakamori, who had already walked in, say while changing her slippers, "So that my girlfriend doesn't have to endure this terrible weather anymore, Hiro-kun, why don't you share the apartment key with me?"

Now Kimura Hiroshi understood. All that buildup was just to get the key to his apartment. What a clever little devil, he's learned to use such tricks.

Too lazy to expose her, Kimura Hiroshi pretended to be troubled and said, "It really shouldn't be like this. Well then, take the spare key with you when you leave."

Unexpectedly, Kimura Hiro agreed so easily. Nakamori Akina thought her little trick had worked and a smug look appeared on her face. She said, "Hmm, as expected of Hiro-kun, who is gentle, considerate and cares about his girlfriend. As a reward for you, I specially went to the Chinese restaurant to buy some delicious food."

It was only then that Kimura Hiroshi noticed that Nakamori Akina was holding a lunchbox. No wonder she came so early; she wanted to have lunch with him.

Carrying a lunchbox, Akina Nakamori entered the living room and saw many sheet music pieces scattered on the table. She put down the lunchbox, picked up a sheet at random, and found a song she had never seen before.

"Ah, I was just thinking about the new album. The table is a bit messy, let me tidy it up." He said, and went to gather the sheet music on the table. In order to select the five songs he was satisfied with for the album, he had written a total of twenty or thirty songs, and wanted to choose the ones he was satisfied with.

Looking at all the new songs on the table, even though Nakamori Akina knew about Kimura Hiroshi's talent, she was still amazed that he could create so many new songs in such a short time. However, seeing him hurriedly packing up the sheet music, clearly not wanting her to see it, she felt a pang of sadness.

"Hmph, it's definitely a song written for those female idols, maybe even one for Naoko-chan. And now they won't let me see it. Hiro-kun, you can be really mean sometimes." Thinking of this, Nakamori Akina was a little unhappy, standing there wondering if she should express her stance as his girlfriend.

"Hiro-kun, these songs aren't written for those female idols, are they?" After thinking for a few seconds, Nakamori Akina decided to express her opinion as his girlfriend.

"Huh?" Kimura Hiroshi, who was tidying up the sheet music, was a little confused by Nakamori Akina's question.

With her hands on her hips, Akina Nakamori thought Hiroki Kimura was pretending to be stupid. She puffed out her cheeks and said, "I know. Hiroki-kun has recently received a lot of song requests from female idols, including Naoko-chan, whom you were staring at last time. I know it's work, but as your girlfriend, I still have to say that writing songs is fine, and collaborations are fine too, but you are not allowed to have any improper thoughts about them."

After tidying up the sheet music, Hiroshi Kimura looked at Akina Nakamori's sullen face and immediately understood that she had somehow found out that he was writing songs for female idols and was jealous of all the sheet music on the table.

To be honest, his jealous look is quite cute. Last time, he also wrote a song for a female idol, and Nakamori Akina didn't react much. The reason she reacted this time is probably because Kawai Naoko is involved. Last time on the Night HIT program, he stared at a certain large part of her body. Now he's going to write a song for her again, and they'll have contact in private. She must be worried.

After tidying up the sheet music, Kimura Hiroshi walked over and pinched her puffed-up cheeks, then put his arm around her slender waist and gently swayed her, saying, "Where did Akina get that rumor? It's outdated. I've already declined the invitation to write songs for Naoko-chan and the others. These songs on the table are for my album. Because this album is very meaningful, I wanted to select the best songs from the ones in my head before writing them down."

"Oh, is that so?" Akina Nakamori asked, somewhat surprised.

He couldn't resist pinching her cheek again, and Kimura Hiroshi joked, "Of course, my Akina is a very sour vegetable, so of course I have to stay away from those women, lest my Akina be killed by the sourness."

Nakamori Akina gently punched Kimura Hiroshi's chest and denied it repeatedly, "No, no, you go ahead and write it for them. I won't be jealous, hmph."

Although she denied it verbally, the slight upturn at the corners of her mouth clearly betrayed her feelings; she was actually quite happy about Kimura Hiroshi's rejection.

"You just said that these songs are for your own album?" Akina Nakamori stared into Hiro Kimura's eyes and suddenly asked curiously.

"Yes, this is a very important album, so we need to choose the best songs from a lot of good songs, but it's really hard to choose. If we choose this one, we think that one is better. We're always afraid that we'll regret it in the future," Kimura Hiroshi sighed, looking very troubled.

At this moment, Nakamori Akina was overjoyed, because she knew that Hiroki was making a love album for her. Pretending to know nothing, she lowered her head and muttered softly, "Hmm, it's a very important album, it needs to be carefully selected. But is this causing Hiroki a lot of trouble?"

Then she thought about how this would trouble Hiroki Kimura, and she felt a little guilty. If it weren't for the fact that it was a love album, Hiroki probably wouldn't be troubled.

Nodding, Hiroshi Kimura said, "There are some, but we have time to take it slowly."

“Actually, Hongjun, you don’t need to worry so much. If you want something memorable, then as long as you do it seriously and leave a mark, then it will be meaningful. Just like anything Hongjun and I do, it will be meaningful to me. I won’t care whether it’s perfect or not. As long as I’m with Hongjun, it’s meaningful.”

As she spoke, Akina Nakamori gently rested her head against Hiroshi Kimura's chest.

Hearing what Akina Nakamori said, Hiroshi Kimura's conflicted feelings instantly dissipated. Yes, he recorded this album to commemorate the time he spent with Akina in front of him. Recording it made it meaningful. In the future, when he takes it out, he can think of this beautiful time. The important thing is to remember this beautiful day, not how good the songs are. He was being too focused on the image.

"I never expected my Akina to be so good at relieving people's inner turmoil. By the way, I have a song I want to dedicate to Akina, which I'm planning to record on an album. I'll sing it for you now, Akina, see if you like it." After saying that, Kimura Hiro released Nakamori Akina's waist and went to get his guitar.

Chapter 199 It's Too Early Now

Picking up his guitar, which he rarely used, Kimura Hiroshi gently plucked the strings a few times and nodded in satisfaction. Although he didn't tune it often, its pitch was always excellent. Holding the guitar, Kimura Hiroshi walked over to Nakamori Akina, cleared his throat, and then gestured for her to sit down, saying, "Ahem, please take a seat, Ms. Akina. I will play a song for you."

Seeing how ceremonious Kimura Hiroshi was, Nakamori Akina cooperated perfectly. She first bowed gracefully, then lifted her skirt and sat down on the sofa, looking softly at Kimura Hiroshi's face, waiting for his performance.

As she strummed the guitar strings, a melodious and light tune reached Akina Nakamori's ears. As a singer, she easily recognized the cheerful and relaxed feeling the song conveyed. The melody was like a spring breeze on her cheek, making her feel warm and comfortable.

"This is the feeling that Hiro-kun hopes I can always have. He's telling me this through his song," Nakamori Akina thought silently.

Accompanied by the light and cheerful melody, Hiroshi Kimura's body began to sway gently as he sang the song in the most relaxed state.

"Close your eyes that you've always forgotten to close, reach out your hands once more, and find the love song hidden in the blue sky. I can't forget the days when I was always by your side, or the days when I gazed at the starry sky alone at dawn. Please don't let your heart be sad. I will even turn your sighs into a spring breeze."

"Illusory Transformation into the Wind," sung by Ayano Tsuji, is the theme song for the animated film "The Cat Returns." While the film itself may not be very famous, the theme song is quite well-known because it's a cheerful and comforting song performed with just a guitar. Many listeners can feel a sense of ease and joy from the bottom of their hearts.

This is a song that Hiroshi Kimura chose to include in the album. The reason he chose it is because he knows that Akina Nakamori always has a lot on her mind, but she is not good at telling the people around her, including himself. He hopes that when she hears this song in the future, she will think of how happy she is now and feel better.

"La la la la, humming softly, I move forward with my lipstick on, just like the flower of happiness I'm searching for with you. I push open the window I've always forgotten to open, and once again reach out to sing a love song entrusted to the blue sky."

As the music played, Hiroshi Kimura's body began to move lightly, his face beaming with a spring-like smile. Akina Nakamori, who had been sitting and watching Hiroshi Kimura sing, couldn't help but smile as well. She stood up and followed Hiroshi Kimura's steps, feeling the beauty conveyed in the song. The two of them sang and danced in the living room.

"La la la, humming softly, applying lipstick as I move forward, praying for the happiness of meeting you, praying for the happiness of meeting you." With the ending, Hiroshi Kimura finally finished singing the song in a cheerful atmosphere.

He stopped, looked down at Nakamori Akina who was also looking at him, and said, "Akina, what's wrong with this song... Ugh!"

Before he could finish speaking, Akina Nakamori rushed over, stood on tiptoe, wrapped her arms around his neck, and gave him a passionate kiss.

Putting down his guitar, Kimura Hiroshi reached out and put his arm around Nakamori Akina's slender waist, beginning to savor this beautiful moment.

But after a while, he became dissatisfied, and his hands started to do something naughty.

But as soon as his hand began to move, it was immediately grabbed by another hand. Nakamori Akina's face flushed slightly, and she hesitated before moving his hand away, shaking her head and saying, "No, not now. It's too early. It's only a little past one in the afternoon. I don't want the day to pass like this."

Akina Nakamori had witnessed firsthand Kimura Hiroshi's ability to cause trouble. If he succeeded, all of today's plans would be ruined, so it was absolutely out of the question. Even if she wanted to, she would have to wait until evening. Besides, the sun was shining brightly now, which made her feel a little embarrassed.

Although his hormones were about to explode, Kimura Hiroshi was no fool, and he knew that Nakamori Akina was definitely not going to escape today. It would be too stupid to ruin such a wonderful atmosphere for a moment of impulse.

Kimura Hiroshi patted Nakamori Akina's head and said with a smile, "Who told you to pounce on me, Akina? Alright, let's have lunch. It's already one o'clock, and we haven't had lunch yet. We're starving."

He quickly let go; Kimura Hiroshi dared not continue rubbing against Nakamori Akina. He needed to calm down first; the young man was just too hot-blooded.

The two finally sat down to have lunch. Nakamori Akina had specially bought him Chinese food. Kimura Hiroshi was eating seriously, but Nakamori Akina was different. She had several sheet music in her hand and was looking at them and smiling as she ate.

After Nakamori Akina's explanation, Kimura Hiroshi has decided on the five songs to be included in the album. They are now in Nakamori Akina's hands. As a top female singer who has her own understanding of songs, she can naturally tell the quality of these songs. They are all good songs, and she is naturally happy to see them.

Looking at Akina Nakamori's smiling face, Hiroshi Kimura was certain she knew something. He swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "You know now, Akina, the purpose of my releasing this album?"

"Hehe, since Hiro-kun said it in front of so many people, I'll find out when I get back to the office," Nakamori Akina said with a sly smile.

Feigning disappointment, he sighed and said, "I was hoping to surprise Akina, but it's a real shame that she found out beforehand."

"No, no, this album is already a wonderful surprise. Thank you, Hiro-kun. Akina is so lucky. I never imagined something so romantic would happen. My Hiro-kun is the best." Nakamori Akina showered him with praise, clearly encouraging him to do more of these kinds of things.

I really appreciate it. He's praising himself to the skies, feeling like he's the best boyfriend in the world.

“However, it would be even better if Hiro-kun could sing all these songs for me after dinner.” Just as Kimura Hiro was immersed in self-satisfaction, Nakamori Akina suddenly spoke up again.

Sigh, so this is what she was waiting for him. She showered him with compliments, then made some demands. His girlfriend is now learning how to manipulate him. She already used the key once, and now she's doing it again. Humph, he won't be so easily fooled.

"Sigh, the songs for the album are all chosen now, but I still have no idea what to do with my new single. I don't even know which style to choose." Kimura Hiroshi began to change the subject, while also mentioning his worries.

Nakamori Akina, flipping through the sheet music, replied nonchalantly, "What's there to worry about, Hiro-kun? You're an idol singer now, no, you should be the most popular singer of all, and you can write so many good songs. Do you still need to worry about the style of your singles? Someone as popular as Hiro-kun can release any good song and the sales will probably be very good."

"Huh, is that really the case?" Kimura Hiroshi asked, somewhat incredulously.

"Yeah, of course there is. Doesn't Hiro-kun know? There's always been this saying in the entertainment industry. Back when Momoe-san hadn't retired yet, everyone was saying that Momoe-san could become famous no matter what she sang. Now Hiro-kun has that ability too, right? Actually, I also want to try and see if I have that ability, but I'm still a little hesitant." Nakamori Akina playfully stuck out her tongue as she said this.

Indeed, Hiroshi Kimura is arguably the most popular singer of all. Only his singles have sold over a million copies this year, making him virtually unrivaled. If he were to release any single, it might indeed be a huge hit. However, to reach a million copies, he still needs some strategies, such as releasing it around the time of a movie's release, or ensuring that the quality of the song is excellent.

"Ah, Akina really knows how to give people advice. She's made me see things clearly. Well then, I'll try to challenge Momoe-san and see if I can release a song that becomes a hit." Kimura Hiroshi said happily.

"Definitely, Hiro-kun is the most popular singer." Nakamori Akina was even more confident than him.

The lunch took a long time, almost an hour. After the meal, the two leaned against each other, whispering to each other while watching a blockbuster from America. The Japanese are very fond of movies from America, and even the box office of these movies is higher than that of local films. This situation is similar to that in his homeland in his later years, where foreign films automatically get two points added to their ratings and then their box office.

It was almost evening when they finished watching the movie, so the two drove around for a while. You can't just wander around in Tokyo, you might get recognized at any time, so they could only look at the street scenes. Then they went to a Western restaurant for a candlelight dinner and then went to a karaoke bar for two hours.

The two of them were practically dancing wildly in the karaoke bar, completely unlike their usual singing style. They sang in all sorts of strange tones. If outsiders heard them, they would probably be shocked. Is this really the same male and female top idol singers who are famous for their singing?

However, this was purely for fun and to release some stress. After going crazy at the karaoke bar, they returned to the apartment, and everything was self-evident. The two hadn't seen each other for many days, and after spending such a wonderful day, exercising was naturally very enjoyable.

Chapter Two Hundred: A Commemorative Album Made with Five Famous Songs

After only one day of rest, Nakamori Akina started another round of busy work the next morning after eating a loving breakfast prepared by Kimura Hiroshi. She didn't know when she would have another break, which made Kimura Hiroshi feel like they were in a long-distance relationship even though they worked in the same agency.

Seeing how busy his girlfriend was, Kimura Hiroshi couldn't just stay home and laze around anymore, since she still had a lot of work to finish. After Nakamori Akina left, Kimura Hiroshi took the sheet music for the album songs he had prepared and headed to the agency.

Inside the agency's office, Yukio Tomioka was intently looking at the five sheet music sheets in front of him. He found that the styles of these songs were truly complex and diverse, including rock, pop, and a mix of both. Moreover, each song seemed to be of excellent quality. It would be a luxury to produce an album with just five songs; they could easily be used to release five singles.

"Kimura-san, did you write all of these in just two days?" Yukio Tomioka wanted to confirm whether Hiroshi Kimura's genius was truly beyond his imagination, writing five excellent singles in just two days.

Having established his image as a prodigy, Kimura Hiroshi didn't want to appear too outrageous. He shook his head and said, "How could that be, Mr. Tomioka? These are the ones I kept from when I was creating them. I've only been putting the finishing touches on them these past two days. I can't possibly write five singles like this in two days."

With a sigh of relief, Yukio Tomioka finally realized that this kid wasn't a monster. However, being able to write five songs like this was still a remarkable achievement. Some music creators probably couldn't write five songs like this in their entire lives, let alone with such a diverse style.

However, he felt it was a bit of a waste to release all five songs on one album, so he tentatively advised, "Kimura-san, all five songs are of excellent quality. How about we release one or two songs on an album and the rest as singles? That way, we can maximize our profits."

If it were just an album to make money, Hiroshi Kimura might have agreed with Yukio Tomioka's idea. However, this album is not only for making money but also for commemoration, so it cannot be done that way. Every song he selected has a unique meaning.

"No, Mr. Tomioka, I can't agree to that. You should know what the purpose of this album is, and every song in it has a unique meaning. If it's changed, it won't be complete," Kimura Hiroshi said, rejecting Tomioka Yukio's proposal.

His words piqued Yukio Tomioka's interest. Holding the sheet music in his hand, he asked, "Each piece has a unique meaning. What kind of meaning, Kimura-san? Could you briefly explain it?"

This is no secret. When the album is released, he will make a simple note in the album introduction. Kimura Hiroshi took the sheet music back from Tomioka Yukio, took out "Gradually Attracted to You", and said, "This is the first song of the album. Gradually Attracted to You expresses that love always starts with attraction, and that attraction is strong and intense."

"Gradually Attracted to You" is a rock-pop song composed by Tetsuro Oda, with lyrics by Izumi Sakai, and sung by FIELD OF VIEW. It was the theme song for the anime Dragon Ball and was also covered by Izumi Sakai. This rock-pop song has a fast-paced and dynamic rhythm, making it very appealing as the first song.

As a middle-aged man, Yukio Tomioka naturally understood that feeling of attraction. He couldn't help but nod. Indeed, love always begins with attraction to the other person, no matter what aspect. As long as you are attracted, you will be curious and want to understand them, and eventually fall in love with them. As a love album, this song is a brilliant idea as the first song.
