Under the Spotlight : The Obsession

"So... can you explain what this is, Leon?"

Victor asked while waving a fan sign ticket with a picture of Mia smiling on it. With a calm attitude, Leon kept smiling. In the past few days, he had learned a lot to accept this strange change from his boss.

"That's a fan sign ticket, Boss. Because you bought many of Mia's albums at once yesterday, you got a gift of Mia's latest fan sign ticket."

Victor rested his chin on his hand as he stared at the ticket with a strange gaze. His fingers tapped his desk as his eyes focused on Mia's picture on the ticket. Victor straightened his body as he looked at Leon, who was still smiling at him.

"What's a fan sign? Is she going to sing there?" Victor asked seriously. Leon had guessed that his boss would not know what a fan sign was. A man who always only thought about work would not know about things like that. But Leon still gave the free ticket to Victor, even though he wanted to keep the ticket for himself. 

Leon was really at a loss. He, who had bought many of Mia's albums, never got the legendary ticket. Why did his boss, who had just been interested in Mia and didn't even know what a fan sign was, get the ticket?

Leon silently cursed this unfair world while continuing to smile because once again, Leon had to be willing to be a patient educator for his boss who knew nothing about entertainment.

"A fan sign is a special event where fans can meet their idols directly to get autographs and get some services from them, Boss. Only on that occasion can they interact directly with their idols, as well as have a casual chat with them."

Although Leon had never been to an event like that because he had to accompany Victor wherever he went, Leon still tried to act smart and explain what a fan sign was to Victor. Victor's face changed when he heard the word 'service'. His eyebrows knitted together as his cold face continued to stare at Leon, who had seen all the changes in emotion from earlier.

"What kind of service do you mean here? Is it bed service? Or-"

"Not like that, Boss! Oh my... Boss, would Enzo allow something like that? He would only hold his fan's hand the furthest, nothing else, Boss. Usually, his fans would only ask them to wear the gifts they gave, give them heart signs, and other simple things. Besides the fan sign was also guarded by staff from Mia's agency. They would stop anyone who acted excessively during the fan sign event."

Leon, who was irritated by his boss's suspicions, unconsciously raised his voice as he also cut off the man's words. After realizing his mistake, Leon immediately stood up a little stiffly. With his boss's sudden bad mood, Leon was sure that he would be scolded severely.

"Boss, I'm sorry-"

"I see. I didn't know there was something like that."

Victor didn't notice Leon's panic as his expression slowly relaxed again. It turned out that Mia was different from the artists he had met. They would usually act recklessly by trying to climb into his bed for popularity or just being attracted to him, but it seemed like Mia had never done that.

That's good. Victor prefers honest singers like Mia.

Victor finally took his eyes off Leon as he stared at the ticket in his hand. On the ticket was written the date of the fan sign, complete with the place where the fan sign would be held.

"Clear my schedule on the day of the fan sign, Leon. I will come, and you will also come with me. Buy one more ticket for yourself. I wonder what she has been doing that she has never sent me a message even after I gave her my card," Victor ordered while playing with the ticket in his hand.

Leon smiled once again when the man heard the order. In his mind, he imagined how conspicuous they would be if big and muscular people like them came to the fan sign event. Leon just hoped that people would not mistake them for Mia's bodyguards. Leon also prayed that there would be no excessive male fans for Mia later, or the fan sign event could be ruined because of his boss's bad temper.

Leon began to pray for many things just because his boss casually asked him to accompany him to a singer's fan sign event for the first time.

"Okay, Boss."

But in the end, who is Leon that he can refuse a direct order from Victor?

***

At the venue where Mia's fan sign event was held, all eyes were staring in amazement at the two men who had just arrived in their luxury car. Previously, they had thought that the car that had just arrived was Mia's car. But when a handsome man in a black shirt came out, everyone was immediately speechless.

If Victor could be described as a handsome and authoritative man, his subordinate Leon could be described as a handsome middle-aged man with a relaxed style. The daddy vibe was very strong from their way of dressing.

Both of them were forced to wear plain shirts to the fan sign event after Leon argued with Victor, who wanted to wear his three-piece suit as usual, while Leon wanted them to dress casually, which Victor could not accept. Leon had to risk his life just to get Victor to use a regular shirt without any extras. For the safety of his life, Leon can only allow the unusual aura to continue to emanate from Victor.

Because of their simple but luxurious clothes, Victor and Leon looked even more striking because of their faces and height. With their semi-formal attire, both of them looked like models who happened to be guests at Mia's fan sign event.

Everyone was impatient to find out who the two handsome newcomers were when Leon casually entered through the front door and handed their fan sign tickets to the guard on duty at the front door.

Even for a moment, the guard who received their tickets was a little confused when he thought the two were one of the guest stars at the fan sign event this time. The male guard's eyes stared at the two of them in a daze before he hesitantly allowed the two to enter as Mia's fans.
