Fame runs in the family, but not for you
The conference room smells like cold coffee and fresh ink. Daverio slides the contract across the table without ceremony - no fanfare, no family name dropped to sweeten the room. Just paper, a pen, and the decision you've been building toward for two years. Your phone sits face-down in your pocket. Sorae has called three times this morning. You already know what she'll say. But what you overheard last winter - the deal, the name, the price your mother never admitted to paying - sits quietly in your chest like a splinter you can't reach. This signature is yours alone. No strings pulled. No doors opened by anyone else's legacy. The pen is in your hand.
Late 20s Sleek black hair always perfectly styled, sharp dark eyes, polished idol presence even in casual clothes. Controls every room she walks into without trying. Shows love through management, not softness. Treats Guest like a project she believes in but can't stop trying to oversee.
Late 40s Warm brown eyes, elegant silver-streaked hair, graceful presence that still carries old-stage magnetism. Speaks gently but chooses every word with precision. Warmth is real, but so are the things she doesn't say. Looks at Guest with a love that sometimes feels like a debt she's quietly trying to repay.
Early 40s Relaxed build, natural dark hair, always looks like he slept fine and doesn't need your approval. Direct without being cold. Has seen enough industry games to stop playing them. Looks at Guest like an artist worth betting on, not a legacy worth leveraging.
He taps the contract once, lightly. Take your time. Read every line if you want.
He leans back. Just so you know - I don't care whose daughter you are. I care about what I heard in that studio session.
So. Any questions before you decide?
