*Sunday Morning*
I woke up to someone shaking me roughly. I opened my eyes and saw Mom and Ian standing over me. “Honey get up and get dressed were going to the model agency” Mom said excitedly. “Ugh” I groaned sitting up straight.
I got out of bed and decided on what to wear.
I took a shower and changed into a loose fitting neon green tank, black latex tights, and black flats with a bow on the top.
I did my hair into a side braid.
I walked downstairs to see Ian and Mom waiting by the door. “About time” mom said grabbing my wrist and dragging me out the door before I could say anything.
We finally got there after about thirty minutes. “We got here just in time” Ian mumbled hoping out the car. The place is called Modelo de Agencia. I’m guessing its Model Agency in Spanish.
We walked inside it. It was huge inside.
“Hi how may I help you?” The lady at the front desk asked sweetly. “We have a 10:30 appointment with Marcus” Ian said to her. She typed something into her computer. “Go right into Mr. Marcus office he should be in there” She said before picking up the phone.
We followed Ian to an office with two big white doors.
He knocked on the door first before we entered.
There was a guy at a desk in the center of the room. “Hey Ian how are you doing man? It’s good to see you” Marcus said getting up to do one of those manly hugs.
“This must be Kat, nice to meet you” He said shaking my hand. “Ian you and Lola can leave and so you two can have some me time without children, now go” Marcus said gesturing to the door. “Ugh, I guess” Ian said grabbing mom’s hand and leaving out the door.
“So Kat why do you want to be a model?” He asked sitting on the edge of my desk. “Well because the girls in magazines look so perfect when I was younger I was always wanted to be like them” I answered with a shrug. “You know you’re a very beautiful young lady you’re going to make millions” He said smiling. “Go stand over there and do a few poses and we’d see if your good or not, I’ll be honest with you if you’re not” He said pointing to a white screen that was set up.
I did as he told.
I did a few poses as he said. He took snap after shot.
He was finally done with taking pictures.
“Well?” I asked. “You’re great, now we can actually start your first photo shoot, we got to do your hair, pick out clothes for you, and do your make-up” He said grabbing my arm and dragging me out the door. He dragged me to the back area where people get their hair done, and make-up done.
“Larissa this is Kat, she is going to be one of our new models if I like her shoots, so make her gorgeous for her first photo shoot” Marcus said addressing a cute curly haired blonde. “I won’t let you down boss” She said in a country accent. I sat down in her chair. “Hmmm I see straight with the full across face bangs” She said before getting started. She finished probably about thirty minutes later.
I was then sent to another station for my make-up. “You’re so pretty, and your skin is so smooth” Said my make-up artist Bambi as she did my make-up. “Ummm thanks” I said alittle creep out by her.
She finally finished and I was finally moved to the clothes.
“Here this is what the boss wants you to wear” My clothes person Brandi said handing me a cute white dressed that zipped up in the front. You see the breast part was kind of like a corset, and the dress flowed out from the waist and stopped mid-thigh, and strapped around the ankle heels. She gave me black sparkle heart earrings, and a black bow-tie necklace.
I was done.
I walked out to the photo shoot area.
“You look gorgeous, now go sit on that couch with your legs crossed but propped up on the couch” He said pushing me towards a white couch with a clouds scene behind it.
I did exactly as he told me.
“Now sit up lean back still with your legs crossed and give us a bored expression” He said and again I did exactly as told.
“Ok, ok, now, lean forward, spread your legs just alittle but put both of your hands on the edge of the couch in front of your spread legs so no one can see your underwear, and give us a mischievous look to make it look like you got some sort of evil plan on your mind” He said and I knew the look he was wanting.
I did it exactly the way he explained.
We did a few more shots.
“Give me a minute Kat” Marcus said taking his photographer to the side.
“Kat you’re a natural, we love for you, it was like you were born to model” My photographer Liam said smiling brightly at me. “Thanks” I said smiling warmly towards him. “So are we done for the day?” I asked Marcus. “Yeah but we need to talk about your career as a model in my office” He said as I followed him back to his office.
We got to the office and I sat down across from him. “So what shall we discuss?” I asked him propping my feet up on the edge of his desk. “Well since you’re going to be one of our new models, you got to get along with the others, some might be alittle mean because there’s someone new with us and they don’t like sharing the spotlight” He said taking a break before continuing. “You will make $20,000 a week” He said folding his hands on his desk. “$20,000 a week, but isn’t that a lot for a new girl?” I asked him putting my feet down. “You heard Liam, you are a natural, and we’d do anything to keep you happy so we can’t lose you” He said smiling brightly. He went on about the job and other models, and how much I’ll make. “And your work hours on school days are 3:00p.m to 5:00p.m. And the school days you come are Monday’s, Tuesday’s, Thursday’s, Friday’s, and the week days are only Saturday and you’ll come here at 10:00a.m to 4:00p.m.” He said finishing with a smile. “So I come here on every day except Wednesday’s and Sunday’s” I stated and he nodded. “Also you get to keep the clothes you model like that dress you’re wearing you get to keep it” He said as I just nodded. “Is that it?” I asked standing up. “Yep see you tomorrow and your photos are going to be all over the internet” He said. “Why?” I asked wondering. “So we can get your modeling out there and so people can know who you are and for your model profile or portfolio, which ever you want to call it” He said. “Come on give me a hug before you go” He said standing up and coming around his desk so he can hug me. “Bye” I said leaving out of his office. I texted mom to come pick me up.
I changed back into my clothes and my dress, shoes, accessories in my bag.
I sat on the curb waiting for mom to come get here.
It was a few minutes before a car pulled up in front of me.
I looked inside and you’ll never believe who I saw.
