Nunew POV

I woke up to a note on my bedside

- P'Aof called me in for a photoshoot! I didn't want to wake you since you looked so tired make sure to eat! I'll see you later on! - Zee

He even left me a note? I looked around the room and the clothes he had used were folded neatly at the top of my dresser, he was such a neat person, even when I had gone to visit his family he had shown me his room and not a single thing was out of place.

My phone rang from somewhere in the room. "damn" I cursed to myself. I'd forgotten to put it to charge last night after being preoccupied with. . other things. Once I managed to locate it I turned it over to see that it was a call from N'Nat and I felt my mood immediately lighten.

"Hello good morning Nat!"

I heard rustling on the other side which was soon followed by Nat's cheerful voice," Goodmorning Phi! are you busy today?"

Busy? I felt a small rush of panic set in because there had been small instances in the past where I was almost late to photoshoots or events because I had overslept.

Thankfully I had my schedule written on my wall calendar and from the looks of it I had a rare day off.

"No!! I'm free all day why do you ask?" usually you don't ask that question unless you wanted the other person to do something for you but Nat was too much of a good hearted person to take advantage.

I could hear the smile in his reply," That's great me too!! would you want to do something today?"

"Sounds fun! I would love to-" but then I remembered that Zee's note said that he would see me later, how late was later? Okay then if his shoot starts at 7am and the shoot takes a few hours then I can estimate that-

"Phi?" I heard Nat call out

"Ah sorry!" I stammered," yes! lets make plans what did you have in mind?"

By the time I had made it to the kitchen I was dressed and had a beach bag at hand, I sat down at the kitchen table because there's no way my mom would let me leave without eating.

" going somewhere today?" Por asked and my mother peeked from the kitchen,"Going with Zee?"

I shook my head,"no he has a photoshoot today, Nat invited me to head to the beach with him."

"Oh! tell him to come around more often we haven't seen him in awhile!"my mom smiled. My parents were fond of Zee but they were also very fond of Nat, he had that reaction on people. He was a very bright and charismatic person I guess that's the reason we became close?

"Here eat up and then you can go, don't keep him waiting long." my mom placed my food on the plate

"yes mai." and I quickly finished what she placed in front of me before heading out.

And let us know when you're on your way back."

I reassured them that I'd call when I was headed back home and with that I left to meet Nat.

On the drive we had stopped by to grab a bite to eat and take a bathroom break.

I looked around, small food businesses were under rated, they were perfect for us since we would easily be recognized in more spacious establishments.

"Here enjoy your meal!" The waitress appeared to be the owners daughter since her features resembled that of her parents.
