Kapitel 119: Let’s try to be friends

I reached for my phone, still slightly breathless from the intense yoga session with Carmen. The screen lit up with a message from Isabel.

Isabel: The photoshoot pictures have already been posted. Check it out! She had sent a link.

Curiosity piqued, I opened the link, and Carmen shifted beside me, propping herself up on her elbow to look at my phone screen. The photos loaded slowly, each one more captivating than the last. I could feel Carmen's gaze intensify as we scrolled through the images.

In the first few shots, I looked confident and fierce, my hair perfectly styled, makeup enhancing my features. The photographer had captured the essence of the brand's edgy, modern aesthetic. I felt a surge of pride seeing myself in such a professional light.

"Wow, Elena, you look incredible," Carmen murmured, her voice tinged with admiration.

"Thanks," I replied, a smile tugging at my lips. "They did a great job with the styling."
