Title: Mamoru's Bride/Just Another Day at the Office
Challenge: Getting Married
Team: Schwarz
Characters: Mamoru (Omi), a bride
Notes: These two are sort of a prequel to
My Role Model.
The bride could hear sounds from the next room. Almost time. She straightened an invisible crease in her expensive kimono and checked her make-up for the last time. This was supposed to be the wedding of the year and she had to look as good as possible. Had to make her family proud. They picked such a nice man for her.
Mamoru-san was kind, considerate and very romantic, so unlike the picture that was painted of him in the press lately. She was sure they'll have a wonderful marriage. She couldn't be happier. So just why was she absolutely terrified?
***
Mamoru stands up at six. He exercises, showers and eats his breakfast. These days he takes coffee. It's catching. After that he reads the news and reviews the summaries of Kritiker's reports. At half past eight he drives to work. Is driven to work. He decides about fates of others, signs important documents and makes sure his wealth remains his. He mingles with important people, a mask of polite smile firmly on, gives speeches, drinks toasts to happy and successful future. Usually he's home at ten. Today he had to put in an extra hour over-time with his new wife.
