Taming Mrs. Mafia

13 A Festival Was Held Upon Her Arrival

Jena, Costa Syniale- a neighboring island near Marawaki, Boa Vista

Code Red, a famous idol group in Costa Syniale, was currently having a photo shoot on an island called Jena. The island was a few hours away from Marawaki but the two islands belonged to two separate countries- Costa Syniale and Boa Vista.

Code Red has eight members- Xynth, Valentin, Sage, Hiro, Czar, Dice, Gray, and Forrest and they are famous for being funny and relatable. The people love the music they created and they also love how down-to-earth they were despite their group's success.

"Forrest, why don't you pose with this watermelon? This will look great with you."

Valentin teased Forrest while he was in the middle of a photo shoot. Forrest was sporting an 'I-am-cool-don't-mess-with-me' look when Valentin made him break the expression he worked hard to maintain because of the statement he said out of nowhere.

Forrest laughed because Jena's his hometown and it's a place famous for their watermelons. He loved to promote his hometown by bringing up the fruit in his conversations. Now, everyone liked to tease him because of it. The photo shoot aimed to showcase their edgy side and a watermelon would make Forrest look weird. The two laughed when they imagined what Forrest would look like.

"Stop messing with me, Val," he glared at his friend and bandmate but half of his lips were still upturned.

"I'm so sorry. Let's continue." Forrest bowed to apologize to the photographer while trying to suppress his smile. When he looked at the camera again, his expression changed and he went back to work mode.

Wearing a black short-sleeved mesh top adorned with white flowers that looked more like a nightie and khaki beach trousers tied with a drawstring around his waist, Forrest rocked the outfit especially when he did poses that highlighted his upper torso which the mesh top failed to cover. His pinkish bare feet were filled with white sand.

"Next member!" The photographer yelled and Czar went up next.

Forrest remembered Valentin's evil act so when he was done, he chased after him with a watermelon, threatening to throw it at him. Valentin only laughed while running half-heartedly away from Forrest. The cameras captured their actions.

A cameraman interviewed Forrest when they finally stopped running around. These interviews will be compiled into a behind-the-scene video which they will post after they release their album.

"Can you tell your fans what you have been working on this time?"

"Well, our concept for this shoot is to be bad boys out to break Crimsons' hearts. As you can see, we wore black outfits that barely covered anything in the middle of this heat. Some members even got tattoos and piercings. We are going to be the bad boys on the beach, everyone," Forrest expertly narrated, especially addressing their fans whom they collectively call Crimsons.

Valentin suddenly appeared in front of the camera.

"Czar is showing his nipple piercings for the first time, our dear Crimsons! Please look forward to the pictures!"

The two laughed while hitting each other. They love to tease their fans.

The guy they just teased did not react because he was quite a distance from them and he was focused on what he was doing with the photographer.

"Have you always liked to annoy other members?" The cameraman asked Valentin.

With a proud and confident gaze at the camera, Valentin answered, "That is my life purpose."

Even the cameraman laughed at his confidence.

Valentin's the only member who has an androgynous face. He's a hottie when he has short hair but he also becomes a goddess when he has long hair.
