Finalizing Everything Before their Debut

At the school, everyone in the school knew that Irina and Cecilia are going to debut on Friday 23rd August. As Idol was what most people cared about in this world, they knew that Irina and Cecilia were debuting that Friday.

"Irina-chan is going to debut this week, right?"

"Yes, I heard from them that it would be at Dream Stadium."

"WOW! It's a place that could hold 20,000 audiences right?"

"Yes, I couldn't believe that Dreamwave Entertainment prepared such a big stage for her."

"Maybe it is because Cecilia would also be debuting together."

"Cecilia-chan? Wasn't it after Irina-chan's debut?"

"Yes, but it seems they will be debuting together."

"Then we should totally get a ticket. We can't miss this chance." …

Knowing that the most popular student from their school is getting their debut, many wanted to go there to support them. Irina and Cecilia were very popular as they had good looks as well as kind personalities though Alan would argue with Irina being kind.

Most of the students from StarFire school were excited to go and watch it with their friends.

The teachers also helped Irina and Cecilia by promoting their debut to their students. It was a proud thing for the school to have Idols and if they can help, they absolutely do.

However, not everyone was excited about such an event done by newcomers, including their enemies.

Inside the Dreamwave Entertainment building.

"Aren't those newbies debuting today?"

One of the directors of Dreamwave Entertainment asked. While they were helping and supporting Luna, they did not have much interest in the newbie.

Many of them didn't even know that they were debuting today.

There were two sides to Dreamwave Entertainment. One is supportive of the president and the other is the vice president of the company. While the president's side is stronger, that was when the president was present in the company.

With him gone for some business to another county, the other side was much more authoritative with the Vice-President calling the shots. Additionally, the two sides disagree on various points of view.

While the president's team focuses much on nurturing the young kids to be the best Idol, the Vice-president side thinks that taking care of already established Idol and bringing established Idol from other companies is the right path.

They both had their reasons and would even compete with each other. This is one of the reasons that they don't really like Irina and Cecilia as they are part of the president's side plan. President not being present is also the reason that they dare to make trouble for the newbie nurtured by the company.

"Should we create some problems for them?"

Another one asked.

"No need. We had already interfered too much. It would not be too good if the CEO comes to know this."

Another said. They were not afraid of the president, however, if the Ceo and investors came to know about their meddling, they could kiss their job goodbye.

"Yeah. Anyway, they could not be popular without our help. No professional manager, no songwriter. It would be a miracle if they could get anything decent. They would certainly fail. This might even show that investing in an unknown future is not a good idea."

Another person supported him. They had restricted many of the things that idols need to debut. Without a manager, without a song, they knew that they would only fail.

"You are right! Let's forget about them. Who wants to go to the club?"

One of them asked and everybody raised their hands. Everybody was ready to go and enjoy the club. They were sure that the Idol trainees who didn't receive any support from them for their debut would definitely suffer.

They were not even interested in watching their Idol Trainees debut. They didn't have interest in the theme in the first place but because their star Luna asked them and as those Idol trainees were from their enemy side, they agreed.

Other than that reason, they don't really have any interest in the person called Irina and Cecilia.

"Please move it there!"

" That should go there!"

"No! Bring some purple-colored flowers to that place!." …

Alan was busy running around and commanding the worker in preparing the stage for Irina and Cecilia's debut. Even while being the youngest in the group, he was the one in charge of everything that happened there.

At first many of the workers underestimated Alan thinking that he was just a kid who doesn't know left from right. They thought that they would be asked to prepare the stage themselves.

However, soon they realized how wrong they were. Alan took his responsibilities and decided on things that he would need to like the color of props or the design of the stage. Prior to getting things confirmed, everyone had to go through him.

They also found that Alan was no worse than other Idol Managers and he would command them efficiently. He also knew what needed attention and the work was going smoothly.

That led them to change their view of Alan. Once they had worked together for a few days, they admired and did not find it odd to listen to a 16-year-old.

The only problem was that Alan was too much of a perfectionist. If something was even off by a little, he would need it to be redone. And the workers could not slack off because Alan was keeping track of everything.

As preparations continued, Alan made sure everything was perfect for Irina and Cecilia's debut performance. He meticulously checked the stage, lighting, and sound equipment to ensure that there were no technical difficulties.

The other workers followed his instructions diligently, and the stage was soon transformed into a dazzling and captivating spectacle. The props and decorations were arranged beautifully, and the colors blended harmoniously.

While the workers thought that their little boss was paying too much attention to details, the end result was excellent. On a limited budget, he managed to transform the stage into one of the best that they had seen.

"Phew! The preparation is finally complete."

"Thanks for your hard work, Lua."

Alan said as he handed her a water bottle. Lua was like an assistant to Alan and she was helping Alan with all the other stuff that he couldn't. She was also scheduling various tasks that Alan would need to do.

Honestly, she was a big help to him. Without her, Alan felt that he would not have made it in time. And because of how much she helped, she was one of the employees that Alan could trust.

(Damn Irina! If only she had said it earlier. )

Alan would also complain to Irina in his mind when the work became intense. He had little time to prepare for everything and when he was tired, he would always complain in his heart.

"Tomorrow we will know whether this will even be successful or not."

Alan said. He had done everything on his part, even working until the night. It was a good thing that Irina managed to help him explain it to his parents.

We didn't reveal that I was working as their manager but that I was helping them with their preparation as they lacked workers. My parents generally trust me with what I do and with Irina's explanation, they agreed.

Now thinking about that, Irina only helped me because I was working for her. Damn her! Instead of convincing my parents to make me work more, it would have been better if I had worked a little.

Anyway, I don't want to complain every time. It is better to get things done than to complain about them. And today is the last time, after that, I will be free. Or so I hope!
