"What do you think, Harry?" Ryn asked him.
"I… I would love to work with you in this," he gulped to calm himself and answered.
"Good. Then, we'll do this," Ryn handed the file to Mei Li to proceed. "Is there anything more for me to decide?"
"So far, no more. I'll give you the info once I have finalized the contracts," Mei Li gathered the ones Ryn accepted in one pile and the rejected in another pile.
"Cool. For tomorrow what time will you come?" she asked. Tomorrow she has a photoshoot with one of her usual clients. But first, she needed to go to her driving class.
"Around 7.00 a.m.?" Mei Li checked her planner, frowning a bit. She has a full day tomorrow too. "Can I leave you to handle during the photo shoot and pick you up after you��re done?"
"Sure," Ryn nodded. She checked the time and realized she spent almost an hour here. "If there is nothing more, I'm going back."
"I'm going back to. Why don't I send you home?" Harry offered.
"It's okay. Someone will pick me up," Ryn replied, already busy typing a message to Jeremy. She deliberately did not say Jeremy's name even though both knew Jeremy. She did not know the reason why behind this decision but she just shrugged it off. It was not a huge crime anyway.
"Oh…" Harry was unhappy hearing her words. Why did it feel like she was trying to put a space between them? He did not like this feeling at all.
Ryn reached for her bag and stood up. "Anyway, I'm happy to see you're getting better and better. Remember to practice when you have free time and who knows you'll get the chance to go international."
"Hmm…" Harry nodded. He waved his hand half-heartedly at Mei Li and followed Ryn as she walked through the door. He wanted to see who was the person who took his job to be her driver.
She did not realize his thought. She simply headed toward the main door, holding her yawn desperately. She could not wait to go home and sleep. Today was such a long day even though it was only around 4 to 5 in the evening.
"You're done already?" one of the receptionists asked when she saw Ryn. It was hard to see her in the agency. In fact, a lot of models were not that often coming here, only those who needed to practice their walk or those who have a meeting come here. With Ryn's status as a supermodel, they expected her to never come but every few months, she would come here for one thing or another. And she was so friendly, not even cold or stuck up like some models here.
"Hmm…" Ryn nodded. She made her way to one of the couches and sat there lifelessly.
"Ryn, are you going to sleep there?" another woman asked with a giggle. They all knew about her little hobby.
Harry took the seat beside her, watching her as she drifted to the la-la land. Who could have guessed the supermodel has this funny little hobby? She could just sleep anywhere but when she was working, she did not look like a sleepyhead at all. It was like she had a switch that she could flip around in order to suit her need.
It was five minutes later before a familiar man entering the premise. Harry's eyes widened in shock. Why was that man here? What was he doing here?
Jeremy was taken aback too seeing the other man. But he did not question much. He just nodded at him and at the receptionists before he went to the sleeping Ryn, clucking his tongue seeing how peaceful she was in her sleep. She did not seem to be aware another man was beside her. Or was she too trustful of this man to let him see her vulnerable side?
Jeremy did not like this idea at all. Humph… it seemed like he needed to discuss this with Ryn. She should not pull down her defence just because this fellow was her senior in the university.
He did not speak with Harry. Instead, he stopped in front of Ryn and leaned down to touch her arm. He shook her gently, "Ryn, wake up. I'm here."
He did not have to wait long for Ryn to stir herself. He smiled as he watched her eyes blinked a few times sleepily. "Wake up, sleepyhead. Let's go home."
Ryn rubbed her eyes with one head as she nodded dumbly. She let him take the bag off her and stood up. "Bye, everyone."
Harry was shocked still. He did not react until the two of them leaving the building. Once he realized the two were no longer there, he lowered his head and looked at his fists. Why he couldn't move just now? Why didn't he stop her from leaving? What did she take that man for? Were they already together? But… it did not seem like they were lovers. Even though there was chemistry between Ryn and that man when moving but Harry did not believe both of them were boyfriend and girlfriend. They could not be. If they do… what about him, then?
His shoulders dropped. He could not think more. If he did, he would reach a conclusion that he did not like. No. He would not think about those two.
*~*~*~*
Jeremy did not speak when they got into the car. He simply watched as Ryn adjusted her seating after she put on the safety belt, preparing to continue her sleep. Pursing his lips, he turned to focus on starting the engine and driving the car away. But his heart was still uneasy. He could still remember how close that man was to his Ryn and the way the man looking at him when he realized who he was.
It was several kilometres away from the modelling agency before he turned back to look at the sleeping Ryn. He could not accept the fact that his Ryn was close to another man. She should only be close to him and him alone. There was nothing he could not provide for her. She could ask him for anything and he would give her without question. Why did she need to have another male friend?
Jeremy did not know about her friends on the island or he would get even angrier. No one knew about the boys except for her parents.
He sighed. It seemed like he had so many things to discuss with Ryn. He needed to make her understand that she belonged to him and she must not get too close to any man because she already has him by her side.
He gripped the steering and tried not to think much. Besides, she was deep in her sleep and he did not want to disturb her resting time.
Instead of going straight home, he went through a drive-through to get them dinner. He did not plan to bring her to any restaurant, seeing how exhausted she was. They could just have dinner at home and then, he would coax her to spend the night in his arms. It has been so long for them to spend the night together in the same bed. He missed hugging her to sleep. He did not ask her what she wanted. He simply ordered twice the menu and put the paper bag to the back. Then, he continued the journey toward home.
Instead of going to his place like he wanted, he stopped at her apartment. It was quite hard when she still refused to reveal their relationship to the world. He could not ask her to move into his place so they could cohabit together. He shook his head to clear his mind and pasted a charming smile. And then, he woke her up with a kiss.
She stirred and blinked her eyes sleepily. A smile curled on her face when she realized who was the person who kept kissing her. "You," she whispered.
"Yes, me," he acknowledged with a leer.
"Have we arrived?" she asked. She forgot to scold him for kissing her in the public again. She stretched her arms and yawned. "What time is it now?"
"Almost 6.30 p.m." he nodded at the clock. He still did not shut off the engine so the number was still clear to their eyes.
"Was the traffic bad?" she asked absentmindedly. Usually, it would not take that long to reach home from the modelling agency unless the traffic was bad.
"Not really. I bought us dinner," he pointed at the food behind.
"No wonder I smell something good. Let's go," she took her bag and opened the door.
Seeing how she did not tell him off for deciding for himself and she did not mind of him following into her home, he smiled widely and shut off the engine. He quickly grabbed their food and followed him to the elevator. Now, he only needed to push a little bit more before they could spend the night together… in bed.
