“Someday I am going to bubble-wrap you”, joked Tania while applying more foundation to my recent injury.

It has become a running joke between me and my assistant. I don’t blame her. Even I am tired of my accident-prone personality. “Someday I might even let you.”

“Seriously, Anshika. I am not even joking. Your accident-prone personality is beyond my understanding.”

Shrugging I reply, “Maybe there is some misalignment in my stars and planets”

“As if”, giving my wrist a final pat she continues, “What you need is a miracle or maybe a guarding angel”

Picking up the foundation bottle I say, “I thought this was my guarding angel.”

Taking the bottle from my hand she tells me, “This my friend is not your guarding but saving angel.”

That’s true foundation or make-up, in general, is any model's saving grace. Although, sometimes I wish to model without any form of makeup. It would be a refreshing change.

I was sixteen when I had first started modelling. In the beginning, it was nothing more than a job that paid my bills. But now it has grown on me. I enjoy doing it. I love my pictures. My pictures give me hope that someday I would be as confident as I portray in my pictures. Someday I would be less accident-prone. But lately, I am losing my patience waiting for that someday. I just want to quit it all now. I want to just sit back and be by myself.

“Are you again thinking about quitting it all?”
