CHAPTER THIRTEEN: HOPE YOU LOVE THEM
" I start texting pages, I can't stay away from you "
- Tink & Summer Walker (Songs About U)It was the day he finished a shoot for a brand campaign and was about to head to Keira's extravagant birthday party—which is the usual.
Keira is known to bring the best and most extravagant party when it is her birthday. Despite it being a extravagant party, she only invited her close friends and family, quite different from last year where almost everybody in the fashion industry was invited.
"Happy birthday to me, bitches!" Keira screams from the top of her lungs then proceeds to open the expensive bottle of champagne gifted to her by Evan.
Hiero only facepalmed in disappointment with a smile on his face, Keira will always be Keira, he thought.
He ordered a glass of white wine and that glass is enough for him for the whole night. He does not happy any plans to get fucked up tonight neither to hook up with anybody.
Not only because of his recent ex-girlfriend that accused him of cheating, but also because of his focus on a modeling agency that he built with his own cousin, Silas Nakamoto.
Everybody knew that Silas is going to build his own agency and had already signed most of the models that he used to work with and / or his close friends. But nobody knew that Hiero is also the co-owner and will manage half of the agency just as Silas.
He loves to keep things private and he'd love it more if life would keep it that way.
"What are you thinking about?" Silas asks next to him with a glass of whiskey in his hand.
"Nothing. Tired. Just... nothing."
"Ah, you're lame as usual, Hiero." Silas chuckles.
"Ikaw lang mag-isa, asan girlfriend mo?"
"She is not my girlfriend." Silas clarifies.
People may not be able to see it but it was obvious how obsessed Silas is with a female model he is 'close' to.
"But... soon she will." Silas utters under his breath.
His cousin is usually much more arrogant, that charming cocky presence should be overflowing by now but nothing was happening, all because of a woman he couldn't stop thinking about.
"You? Ikaw lang din? Walang... babae?"
"Not interested. All I want now is to focus on the agency, maybe I'll think about women again." Hiero said that left a bitter aftertaste in his tongue.
"What about your modeling career?"
Hiero immediately rolled his eyes after his 'modeling' career was suddenly brought up.
"I told you, this is my last one. No more. I wasn't passionate about it anyway."
Hiero was scouted back in college, he went on and became a model for a few years but came to a realization that it was not something he wanted to do, it had always been business and never modeling.
He already began with the launch of his clothing brand that is slowly making its way to the people. The brand just sold out their third collection within two days of its release.
