In the end,Raina had to comply.And she found it not to be so bad.The only unpleasant thing was that she had to take a series of couple shoots with Vernon.Her heart couldn't stop pounding.
"Okay! Come closer,I want to see more chemistry!"
"Snap! Snap!"
"Excellent!" A few more camera clicks echoed across the studio room.Vernon was all natural in front of the camera while she was all awkward but she wasn't scolded like she expected.
"Okay! Let's take five." The main photographer said.And Raina immediately stepped away from Vernon like he was made of hot brick. He had held her intimately for the couple shoot.
Raina checked the time and almost had a heart attack! She was so late!
Vernon quietly observed Raina's panicked expression without telling her that he had already made plans with her agency.She could arrive late for the premiere.
Raina's face reddened with anger.Thanks to Vernon,she would be late for the premiere.
"Are you happy now?" She screamed at him.And right then,a message came from Mira.
"Get into the black van behind the hotel.The makeup artiste will be waiting there." The message read.That means her arriving late would be handled by the agency.Raina read the message two more times to be sure that her eyes weren't playing tricks.
Raina had been all worried about how Mira and her crew would scold the shit out of her.Turns out it was all for nothing.The situation somehow fixed itself.Or did someone pull strings.....?
It was plausible for her to think that Vernon did it.Considering that they were from the same company although in different parts.He was in the record label while she was in the acting agency.
'How sarcastically thoughtful.' Raina thought.What exactly is going on?
************************
Casper's eyes kept darting around outside the hotel venue.The red carpet had already kicked off and she was no where in sight.
He kept checking his wristwatch.He had arrived so early with the thought that they would maybe walk down the red carpet together.That would make it the first time he had ever walked with anyone down the red carpet.
"Are you ready?"
"Ready?" Casper's eyes narrowed at the question thrown by his assistant.She shouldn't have asked such a silly question knowing his red carpet style or former red carpet style,soon enough.
"Have I ever arrived this early to a red carpet you dimwit!" Casper barked at his assistant.Making the young lady flinch back in fear.
Reese had worked with Casper since his early career days.She put up with his shitty attitude for the high paycheck and benefits.But more than that was her feelings.Reese has had a crush on Casper through the TV screen.
Her fangirl crush developed into a strong infantuation that made her abandon her flourishing career as an air hostess in a heartbeat and took on the risky unpredictable job as the tyrant's assistant.Yeah that is his nickname among her fellow assistants.
It might sound crazy.But she imagines a happy future with Casper.There is nothing impossible when it comes to love right? But the only attention he has ever given her were sharp glare and yelling insults.And she openly received them.It was from her secret love.Perharps it is his own way of showing affection.
Casper came out of the car looking for a place to smoke and clear his head as thoughts of a certain someone keeps invading it.
He caught sight of a figure walking briskly towards a black out van.He could tell who it was despite the oversized hoodie,facemask and sunglasses.He refrained himself from running to her.
Gosh, these stupid feelings.He chided himself.
