Chapter 38: One of the Trials
THE gap between her and Malik becomes mysteriously narrow. His tall and broad body built screamed superiority and power. And the way he looked at her creates a massive impact of embarrassment.
She pinched the bridge of her nose when she realized that she was still in her robe. She was safe, though. But, she's not promoting the robe, and what's hiding on it was the real outfit.
The stage director called her attention.
Kumabog ang dibdib niya nang mapansin ang senyas nito na pumunta roon. Kinakabahan man ay tumalima agad siya. Bawat yabag ay nakakabingi. Saglit pa siyang natigilan nang punain ni Mr. Ross ang suot niyang roba.
Napasulyap siya kay Malik.
Inaabutan ito ng isa sa mga staff ng mineral water, pero hindi manlang nilingon dahil buong atensyon itong nakatingin sa kanya.
Cinder helped her to removed the outer clothes. At nang maiwan siyang mag-isa sa set ay napahipo siya sa batok. She's shivering from too much attention that Malik was giving in. Hindi niya iyon naramdaman kanina. Ngayon lang.
Mr. Ross said to her to lie on the golden sofa.
Tumango siya. Sa likuran ay hindi niya napansin ang male model na makakapareha.
Sa dami nang naging experience niya noong siya'y si Vika. A shoot like this was common for her. She can finish it quickly, but there was a huge difference now. Her face was exposed, plus the fact that Malik was there.
Naging stiff ang unang attempt nila dahil pilit siyang dumidistansiya sa lalaki. Kapag sinusubukan naman siyang suportahan nito'y nawawala sa ayos ang expression ng kanyang mukha.
Mr. Ross didn't say anything but the way he shook his head, she knew he was not happy.
"I'm sorry. Please, let's do it again," she pleaded.
One of the staff suggested something. Mr. Ross approved the idea, and they rearranged the set. They put two white couches and let them lie on that in T position wherein she can lean her head on her partner's chest.
It was very awkward but damn, she had to nail this one last chance. Buhat kanina ay hindi na niya nilingon si Malik. He will just distract her and she will not let that happen.
"Jyra and Arthur, connection. Please, work as one!" Mr. Ross shouted.
She heaved a long sigh while her eyes were closed. This is just the beginning of reality. Magkakaroon pa ng mga future challenges. Dapat dito palang mapagtagumpayan ko ito. I have to overcome my fear. She opened her eyes with audacity. She sensually reached her partner's hair to pull it slowly as if she was hungry with his touch.
Naramdaman iyon ng kapareha niya kaya sumang-ayon ito sa agos. Gumapang ang kamay nito sa kurba ng kanyang baywang at huminto sa kanyang hips para suportahan siyang huwag mahulog. She holds his tattooed right arm while her free hand was sensually caressing her nape going down to her cleavage.
Maging ang ilan sa mga staff na nanonood ay naramdaman ang dalang init nilang dalawa ng kapareha. Bakas iyon sa pagiging active ni Mr. Ross. Walang patid ang pagkuha nito ng shots.
Jyra's attention crept to where be Malik when she arched her back. Hinawi niya ang buhok pakaliwa para mas makita ito. Unconsciously, a malicious smirk showed on her face.
"That's a wrap!" Mr. Ross shouted when he got the perfect post he was looking for.
Cinder immediately run off the stage to put the robe on her. Arthur helped her sit up.
"Thank you," bulong niya habang nahihiyang ngumiti rito.
"I am pleased to get this opportunity to be your partner Miss Jyra," Arthur said. Maging ito ay naka-robe na rin.
Lumapit sa kanila si Mr. Ross. "Iha meet Arthur, he is the new male model of Swiss Agency."
Mangha niyang minasdan ang lalaki. Hindi niya inaasahang model na pala ito.
Nahihiyang ngumiti sa kanya si Arthur. Inilahad din nito ang kamay sa harapan niya.
"Naku, ako nga itong nahihiya. Sino ba ako?" Tumawa siya at agad inabot ang kamay ng lalaki. Agad siyang bumitaw at alanganing tumango. Anong ginagawa mo, Jyra? She smiled to Cinder, she even pulled her lower shirt to ask for help.
Nakuha ni Cinder ang ibig sabihin noon kaya pumalakpak ito. "Mr. Ross, you looked satisfied."
Napatingin siya sa ginoo. Cinder is right. Satisfaction was drawn all over his face. Nakahinga siya nang maluwag dahil doon.
"Yes, Cinder." Bumaling ito sa kanya. "I shall see you next time, Iha?"
"Of course, Mr. Ross. Ako po ang dapat na magpasalamat sa inyo. This is a big stepping stone for me." Agad siyang nagpaalam dito. She even asked Cinder to prepare her dress. And when she got alone, she timidly smiled at the man who's staring roughly at her.
Lumapit ito sa kanya.
"You always skipped your work," bulong niya rito, nahuling sumulyap saglit kila Arthur at Mr. Ross bago hamaplos sa kanyang balakang.
She even glanced to Arthur. Nakita niya itong kausap ang isa sa mga staff pero nakatingin sa kanila.
Malik rubbed her delicate curves. "Hmm?"
A tingling sensation drew on her body but she tried to hides it. "What are you doing?" Her eyes narrowed when she felt his finger was tracing the line of her bikini. Luminga siya . May ilang staff ang patuloy na nanonood sa kanila. "Stop it, Malik," she sibilated.
"Magbihis ka na," utos sa kanya nito.
Tinaasan niya ito ng kilay.
A ghost of smile hides on his serious face. May gusto itong idugtong ang kaso'y sumulyap ulit ito kay Arthur. His hand rested on her back and in slow motion, it was rubbing upward. "O, gusto mong ako ang magbihis sa'yo?"
