POV (Point of View)

Chapter 9: The Heroine

The loud funk music in the huge Tokyo Creative Salon 2017 resounded in one of the most prestigious halls in Harajuku where a fashion show is to be held. With its theme, 'Winter Passion across Thousand Cultures,' Japanese designers have gathered to showcase their talents in couture and design.

Fashion critiques, enthusiasts, and fashion lovers alike, have started swarming the luxurious place. Tonight, is unlike any night for stylists and fans all over Japan. For tonight, international models were invited to flaunt and walk the gorgeous snowy ramp, wearing the famous Japanese sketches turned into works of art.

But on this momentous night for the Japanese vogue culture, is Bonten, who have come to crash the show...in pursuit of a certain pillar from Paradiso, who happens to be one of the invited models, Lucy Jimenez aka Lujuria.

"The show's about to start now. Everybody ready?" A certain mauve-haired heard from their ear while he is seated on the front row while browsing a brochure containing the names of the designers.

"Very fucking much. Let's just hurry up and capture this bitch." Rindou could only sigh in silence after hearing the impatient Sanzu in the line.

"Hi." Without turning around, he answered...

"What do you want?"

"Is this seat taken?" He sighed in annoyance as a response. Of all things the younger Haitani dislikes are women being overly aggressive.

Unless they're pretty.

"You don't see anyone occupying th—"

His words got cut off upon seeing...a beautiful woman dressed in fitted red dress that hugs her jaw dropping figure on the right places. He was just in awe...that he seemed to have swallowed his tongue.

Well, he did say that the 'pretty' are exempted, right?

"Sir? Is it vacant?" Shit. Even her voice sounds as pretty as her.

"W-What? Ah yes, it's free. Please. Take your seat." He finally answered and flashed a handsome smile to the woman, who reciprocated it nicely before taking her seat.

"Thank God, I made it on time. I was literally begging the taxi driver to drive fast to get here." She said straightly while fixing her dress. But since it's already too short to begin with, it got even shorter as she took her seat.

Hence, Rindou didn't hesitate to remove his coat and offer it to the woman, who looked at him.

"You must be freezing. You may cover yourself with this." He said, which made the woman to slowly grow a smile.

"That's very kind of you, Sir. Thank you." She answered with a more beautiful smile and covered her legs with his coat.
