"baby, let me go and get ready..." kota said while diego covered her face with pecks and tightened his arms around her body. "you're gonna get me laaate..." she kept trying, but diego seemed not to care about it. "iiii neeeed toooooo wooork." she said, prolonging the words. "diego!" dakota made an angry face, making diego immediately stop.

"aw, sorry." he left a last peck on her cheek and let her go from his arms. "i just wanna spend more time with you..." he rests his head back on the pillow as kota stands up and puts her bra on. she then walks to their closet and picks up some clothes to wear. diego would watch her and keep asking himself how did he get so lucky to have someone like kota.

"don't forget to breathe." kota joked when she realized diego was staring at her semi-naked body. they chuckled as she slid a jeans skirt on and he kept watching her.

diego sat up straight and stretched, while kota put a white cropped on and walked to diego, slowly kissing his lips. "do you really have to go?" he says when she pulls away.

"mhm." she replies walking to the toilet, where she brushes her teeth and ties her hair up. she did a simple make up and put a pair of vans on.

"you're looking gorgeous." diego says as dakota leaves the toilet.

"thanks, baby. will you come down for breakfast?" dakota asks while looking around for her phone.

"mmmmmmm... yes. i'll be there in a sec." he smiles and she smiles back. kota leaves their room as soon as she finds her phone, heading downstairs and making breakfast for them.

she cooks some eggs and bacon, then putting bread, butter and jam on the table. she makes coffee and takes orange juice from the fridge, also putting them on the table.

she feels a pair of hands surround her waist as she was leaning down on the table to reach the other side. she keeps organizing the table while diego kisses her shoulder.

"your butt looks pretty in that skirt, baby." diego said near to her ear. "i'll miss you today." kota turns around to face diego as he presses her against the table.

"can you not just sit down and eat without saying dirty things on the morning? Jesus Christ." she laughs, but then kisses his lips briefly.

they had breakfast and kota left for work. on the way there, she received a call — from an unknown number. she frowns, seeing that she wasn't getting as much work as before. she was only working for the usual people she used to work with.

"hello?" she says as she picks up the phone.

"hi, is this dakota black?" a female voice asks after cleaning her throat.

"uh, yeah."

"oh, good! i'm chelsey northern, i have a big job for you and i'd like to schedule an appointment with you to talk about it, if you're interested." she was direct to the point. kota eyes widened, it seemed to really be big, because usually they just call to book a photoshoot.

"uh... yeah, of course."

"what time would be good for you, ms. black?" the woman asked on the other side of the line while kota thought of her last job today.

"after six, if that would be okay with you." kota said parking her car in front of her client's house.

"yes, that's perfect. 6:30pm is okay with you then?" kota replies with a 'mhm', "great! i'll send you the address by text. say your name in reception and they'll let you in!" the woman said and then she hung up after saying her goodbyes.
