When Love and Hate Collide

CHAPTER 8

BRIDGETTE
It's nice working with you.

"Do I need to introduce her to your team? I think you already know her since you've chosen her to be part of this." Seryosong tanong ko kay Dean na nag-aayos muli ng lente ng camerang nakatayo sa harapan niya.

They just got back from a break after a few hours of photoshoot with our models, and now it's her turn to take the spotlight. We still haven't talked yet dahil inayusan siya at binihisan.

Maybe after this day makapagset kami ng one on one meeting.

"Yes, not all of us knew her. Let them know what's her greatest spot when it comes to pictures, or what do you think is her best shot. Any encouragement to the team that can help this photoshoot with her." Seryosong advise nito sa akin at naupo muna sandali habang naghihintay sa pag-aayos ng platform kung saan siya ipupwesto.

I sat next to him, to where I am sitting earlier.

Napabuntong hininga ako at napaisip. I don't even know her? Anong advise ang sasabihin ko sa kanila? My goodness!

"Is it really necessary?"

"You're acting like her manager. You should know your models."

Si Bobby dapat nandito! Kaso busy ang lola mo.

Pinag-isipan ko ang sinabi niya. Paano ko ba siya idedescribe sa kanila? Isang mataray, masungit, laging galit at physical attack ang favorite gawin kaya ayusin nila kung ayaw nilang magwala yun sa gitna ng photoshoot?

"She's great at any angle. She has this natural aura with her—an aura that can catch your attention just by looking at her. So basically, she'll catch attention without her trying even with photos." Napalunok ako ng ilang ulit matapos kong sambitin lahat ng iyon sa harap ni Dean.

It naturally flows out of my mouth. Gusto kong maduwal. Did I really say good things about her?

"I see. You're right. That's why we chose her." Dean smiled at me at inayos ang salamin niya.

Tumikhim ako at umayos ng upo nang makita ko na siyang naglalakad papuntang platform.

Parang biglang bumagal yung paligid ko at siya lang yung nakikita. Gusto kong sampalin ang sarili ko para magising.

Malala na talaga ang sira ng mga mata ko. Kung hindi lang mahal magpaayos ng mata, ginawa ko na.

She wears a long patterned pink skirt from Fendi. A gold chain belt with flowers dangling in it. Her top was a simple black sleeveless with three silver buttons attached to it. She also has pearl necklaces, and the way her wavy black hair flies smoothly while she walks femininely makes me lose my breath for a moment. They even put bangs to her hair and it looks great on her. She's such a model.

How to be her?

"Ms. B?"

"Oh—y-yeah?" Napakurap kong tanong kay Dean na tinapik na ako sa kamay dahil mukhang nawala na naman ako sa sarili.

"It's time to introduce her to the team so we can start."

"Oh...right, o-okay." Tumango ako at umalis sa kinauupuan ko.

Kinakabahan akong lumapit sa kanya na tahimik lang na nag-aabang malapit sa ginawang platform kung saan siya kukuhanan ng picture. 

Nagsilapit na rin ang production team at mga co-photographers kasama ni Dean.
