Chapter 24: Model For The Day

Chapter 24: Model For The Day
The moment Riley saw Lotte at their meeting area, she waved her hand to catch her attention.
"Riley!" Lotte went to her and giggled. "I'm so excited!"
"Yeah, me too. Where are the others?"
Suddenly, Lotte pouted. "About that, we have to separate for awhile because Professor Liam said that all archi students must be on the bus 1 and nursing students must be on the bus 2 and so the other courses."
She sighed and tapped her cheeks. "That's okay. Don't worry. We will see each other at the beach, right?"
Lotte forced herself to nod. "Yeah but you know I don't have any friends in my class. It's gonna be awkward for me if I join them knowing that I'm not sociable."
"Try it." She urged her and positioned her arm on her shoulder. "It's not bad if you try to be friends with them."
Lotte rolled her eyes at her. "Coming from you, who's very introverted, huh?"
"Hahaha, it's easier said than done."
They both laugh and chit-chat while waiting for their other classmates and batchmates.
When their professor informed them that it's time to hop in their respective bus, Lotte hugged Riley before they separated their ways.
Riley has been silent the whole ride. She was the opposite of her classmates who're non-stop talking nonsense and gossiping about anyone's business.
"Girl, do you know that there will be a photoshoot near the beach that we're going to?" Her classmate Heidi giggled.
She's seated in front of her so she could hear what they were talking to. Not that she's eavesdropping their conversation. She just can't help but hear them even if she doesn't want to.
"Oh? What about it?" Heidi's friend replied. She's sitting beside Heidi.
She giggled once again. "They said the photographer is so handsome! And he's a photographer here and outside of the country! He's also famous because of his wonderful and amazing shots. That's why the team of cosmetic commercials hired him today for a photoshoot near the beach!"
Her friend clapped her hands in glee. "Oh my god! The female model is going to be lucky!"
"I know right?"
Riley sighed and shut her eyes down. Their estimated time of arrival is four hours before they could reach their destination.
JAKE WAS in a hurry while he's on his phone with the assistant director of his project today.
"We have a problem. Ms. Emma Relish, our female model, couldn't make it for the photoshoot. She said an emergency came to happen while they're on their way to the venue." The assistant director informed him.
Jake heavily sighed. "How about hiring someone with good looks, potential and confidence? You said this project is needed as soon as possible, right?"
The person on the other line shouted in frustration. "That's a good plan but, I don't see any female here that suits for the commercial."
"Oh, crap."
"And we had another problem."
"What?" He messes his hair. "And that is?"
"Our male model also couldn't make it. His driver just called the manager that there's a misunderstanding that happened while they're on their way here. But they assured that no one has been harmed or hurted." She said, "By the way, we need you here now. See you."
The assistant director didn't wait for his response and just ended the call.
He rushed to leave the mansion with his DSLR camera but before he could leave, he heard Jay speak.
"What's the rush?"
Jake glanced at Jay who's comfortably sitting on the couch while watching wrestling on TV.
"I have to go. I'll talk to you later."
He's in a bad mood because their models just ditch their photoshoot. Now they have to find who's willing and suitable for the commercial they are going to make.
Jake halted when a thought came into his mind. A smile crept to his face and walked back inside the mansion.
"Jay hyung, get up and get change." He ordered his older brother.
And Jay who's comfortably sitting, filled with confusion. "Huh? Why?"
He sighed and forcely pulled him up off the couch.
"We had something important to do. Don't worry they will give you your salary if you do well." Jake scoffed. "But I'm sure you'll do great. Actually the amount of your good looks is higher than the male model so you'll pass."
"Hey! What are you talking about!"
When they reached the second floor where his room is, Jake pushed him in.
"Go change and pick something casual like a bohemian outfit or comfy checkered tops and shorts. Anything for a beach outfit. Or if you want, you could go topless since you're physically fitted." Jake said with a matching chuckle in the end while his eyebrows are teasingly moving up and down.
"Shut up!" Jay shouted from inside.
Jake was enjoying teasing his short-tempered brother. This is the kind of bonding they do.
Minutes of waiting, Jay finally went out of his room. He wasn't wearing bohemian or checkered but he's wearing a plain white sleeveless sando partnered with black shorts.
Jay's eyebrow furrowed and motioned his hands on what he was wearing. "What now? Just tell me where we are going."
Jake smirked. "Let's go."
Although he's confused about Jake's actions, he just followed him until they reached the garage where Jake's Tesla parked.
He sits in the passenger seat while Jake is in the driver's seat.
Jay threw Jake so many questions but he didn't bother to answer him, not even one question. He just said that they're going to something important instead of staying in the mansion all day with nothing to do.
He thought that their trip would only last for minutes but he was shocked that they took so many hours before they finally arrived at their destination.
And speaking of destination…
It's a freaking beach!
Well that's the reason why Jake ordered you to dress up in a beach outfit. A voice in his mind says to him.
They went out of Jake's Tesla and they both walked towards the group of people who were minding their own businesses. Looks like there's a problem because they were totally loud and shouting. It's so chaotic.
"Sir Jake, thank god you're here!" A female holding a folder said and her gaze went to him. Her eyes widened in surprise and amazed. "Who is this gorgeous man?"
He saw from his peripheral vision that Jake grinned.
"He will be the replacement of our male model."
Both of him and the lady gasped.
"What?!"
"Oh my god! That's exactly what I'm thinking!" She left them for a second and called the director. "Sir! Problem solved for our male model!"
Lot of paired eyes looked at him with amusement.
Shit, why do I feel so awkward! Tsk. This is Jake's fault for dragging me here without a word!
"He's perfect. His charms will exactly attract every customer of the product when we release our commercial." The man with the eyeglasses said. "Don't worry, you will be paid for your cooperation. Just do your job perfectly." He said to him, with matching thumbs up.
I think he's the director.
"Great. Problem solved for finding a male model. Now we have to find our female model." The lady holding a folder tapped Jake's shoulder. "Rest for a minute while we're finding a female model. There's snacks at the tent. Just get what you want if you feel hungry."
"Okay. Thanks, ma'am." Jake said.
"Who is she?" Jay whispered to Jake.
"She's the assistant director." he smiled teasingly. "Why? Is she your type?"
Jay slightly punched his left arm. "Stop joking around. I'm not that cheap."
Jake just shook his head. "Whatever you say, Mr. Grumpy."
