2023-01-17 23:43:00Throughout the photo shoot, Gina tried her very best to smile. Even though she knew she looked pretty and even sexy, she wasn't just feeling the whole thing. As her body was moved all around and positioned at different places, mostly beside Henry, she soon got tired and just wanted everything to be over with. Coupled with the fact that she was still very angry with her husband, she wanted to scream but had to hold herself. It looked like Henry however, was having fun, as he was basically directing the people on how to snap the pictures.
There was no doubt in her mind that everything they were doing was just for show, but she had to accept it. It was what she signed up for, so she needed to make the most out of it. That was why, after a while, she boldly requested for personal pictures. Luckily, only Henry seemed to think it weird and he cleared his throat and frowned before moving away from her and going to sit on the red couch. The photographers, however, were

As Henry waited for Gina to come out of the room, he chuckled darkly to himself. He was surprised that he was doing this and taking her out on a date, but he was going to go ahead with it. Throughout his teenage years, he was known for being very impulsive and capable of handling impromptu tasks. However, he hadn't placed himself in a position where he had to ask a girl out on a date like that, especially an angry lady who was supposed to be his wife. He hadn't been married before, and even though everything was a ruse, he knew enough to know that someone like Gina could ruin everything one day and damn the consequences. So as Henry looked in the mirror, he tried to convince himself that pacifying Gina was the reason they were going out on a date. He had a strong urge to inform his chief guard to take them pictures, but just before he stepped out, he shook his head and continued to wait. It wouldn't end well if she realized he was still using it to take pictur

After a few minutes of chatting, the call ended and Gina didn't know whether to be grateful or annoyed with the situation. On one hand, the woman calling had made the table a bit lively as she asked questions about how they were doing and even ordered them to send her pictures. However, she was annoyed for the same reason. The only reason they had maintained a proper conversation was because his mother called and it irked her. She wondered if there would be still be absolute silence in the table if nothing had happened. As she finished her second cup of ice cream, she debated between confronting him and trying again with another topic.Eventually, she decided to search for another topic in her head and after some minutes, she settled on the perfect topic. It was one he was most likely not to answer, but Gina had long learned to be optimistic in every situation. Besides, there was nothing else she could do and time was going. She knew it wouldn't be long before H

In another part of the world, in a small shabby apartment that reeked of alcohol and needed a day's worth of cleaning, Gina's ex boyfriend sat in a small corner wondering what to do next. The furthest thing from his mind was the state of his home, but the state of his mind and body. He felt a lot of emotions at the same time, and he sighed before taking another swig of beer. It was his fourth in less than twelve hours, and there was still half a carton left before he had to step out for another one. It was safe to say he was depressed, and he realized that two weeks back, he was on top of the world and there was nothing he wanted more in life.Until everything shattered on that fateful day. His wife had come for a visit at his work place as he was missing her and their daughter. It was a fun visit, as they spent the first two days going out and having fun. His family had never been to his new job, so they made sure to explore the surroundings and generally, just

When Ken woke up the next morning, the channel was still tuned onto the news. Fortunately, they seemed to have moved past the one hour talk about Gina getting married to the most eligible bachelor in America, but his head banged both from the alcohol hangover and the new found hatred he possessed for his ex girlfriend. He had spent two weeks of his life drinking and worrying about how heartbroken she would be after his cheating, unaware that she had moved on to someone better than him. Thinking about it gave him a huge headache and he wanted to punch something so bad, but if he did so, there would be a lot more to pay than just the rent. So, he held himself back and tried to focus.More than his anger at the fact that he felt guilty for nothing, he was thoroughly hurt by the fact that she dumped him first. After catching him with his wife and daughter, Gina sent him a long message detailing how he broke every atom of their trust and she would never be able to re

Gina happily woke up to the smell of fresh bread and bacon and subconsciously, her nostrils tried to find where he scent was coming from. She knew it wouldn't be her room, because she had not yet ordered room service for the morning so she shrugged and tried to take the scent out of her mind. However, it soon became difficult to keep her eyes shut and get back to sleep, especially when her alarm began ringing beside her. It was 7am and her last day in the Maldives. The honeymoon had gone far too fast and she hadn't explored as much as she wanted, but the most important thing was, she could check another country she had been to. With that in mind, she put on a smile on her face and finally opened her eyes, instantly yawning and gasping midway when she noticed the tray of food by her bed.The scent had definitely been coming from there, and she salivated in happiness. A few seconds later, she began to dig into the food with little care in the world when she stopped and stared at the foo

As the hours drew on, Gina tried hard not to look at the pile of clothes that had accumulated over time. Instead, she focused on the pretty dresses she saw and exploring the whole mall. It was like going to a mini vacation as they continued walking, and everytime she asked Henry if he was getting tired, he only shook his head and egged her on. Deep inside her, she didn't know why he seemed so chill and calm about everything. Even the money he was spending on her didn't appear to have an effect on him, and she had mixed feelings about it.On one hand, she wanted to pay for the clothes herself knowing fully well that she now had the money to spend. But then again, why not enjoy the care and free shopping while it lasted? In less than a year, she would be back to her own devices and it would be up to her to get things for herself. So, she decided to go with the latter and enjoy the day very well. Though, she tried her best to stop Henry from buying so many things but once she tested them

Gina practically danced all the way home, even while things were once again quiet between her and Henry. She didn't want anything to dampen the mood of shopping and besides, she could hardly wait to tell her husband what she got him. More than once, she saw him looking at her with a frown on his face and Gina didn't need anybody to tell her that he was wondering why she seemed so happy. Instead of saying anything, she just gave him a smile and watched the streets as the day gradually turned into mid afternoon. They had been at the mall since morning, and apart from being happy, she was also tired.She had been trying on dressed all day, and her feet hurt because she also tried on a lot of shoes as well. That was not really the hard part for her, as she already had a clear idea of what she wanted and in which colour. What made it difficult was standing for minutes while everyone accessed her overall look, especially Henry. At a point, she began to feel like he was making her spin and t

The next morning, Gina woke up to the consistent ringing of her phone and she groaned aloud in wonder as the saw the clock read four a.m. Who could possibly be calling her at that time, and the thought made her angry as her head began to ache. There were few things Gina hated more than being woken up before her usual time. As the first call ended, she went back to bed and tried to ignore the thought but almost immediately, the person.started to call again and she had to force herself to turn and pick up the phone. When she opened her eyes to look at the caller ID, they nearly bulged out in surprise.Ken was calling her, and from the screen, it seemed like the third time that morning. What could he possibly what to talk to her about? Her blood began to boil as she realized that he was probably the worst person to have disturbed her at that time. As the phone continued to ring insistently, she wondered what her ex boyfriend could possibly be up to. She had spefici

Just before Gina called Mr. Cornwell, she decided to go visit her mother. It was a combination of two reasons, mostly because she hasn't seen the woman in a long time and because her best friend also wanted to see her. She was feeling really guilty about how she had neglected to see her mother these last few weeks, but it was not due to the fact that she was busy or something. Rather, she was just that a negligent with a lot of places in her life but she quickly shook her head. If she was being honest with herself, there was absolutely no excuse for what she did.With that in mind, she quickly turned to her friend and thanked her for making her to be able to see her mother again.

The next morning, Hevry was up earlt because he needed to catch his flight which was scheduled for eight am, and considering the fact that it was very impromptu, he had to tell the executives at the office. They were shocked and a few mumbled about the sudden decision, but all in all, they agreed to work without him for a week and all that was left was to tell Gina. As he dressed up, he couldn't help but remember the argument he had with his wife last night, and before the call came in, he was hoping to settle with her last night but apparently, it would no longer be possible.Within minutes, he finished dressing up and went downstairs where he realized that Gina was already sitting at the dining table. The first thing he noticed was that she was still clad in her nightwear, which meant she had just woken up from sleep. Could it be that she had done it for him, he whispered, and despite himself, he smiled. Maybe, she was finally seeing reason with his decision. He was already at the f

Gina watched as he frowned for some seconds before finally sighing and putting his hands in his pockets. His gestures didn't really seem like he was open to listening, but at least, it was better than when his arms were folded and he just looked like she was disturbing. She really wanted him to understand why she was so interested in doing the modelling, even though he wouldn't be the one to ultimately decided if she did it or not. Normally, she night not even have told him. Maybe he would just hear that she had settled into it.But with her new feelings for him came new responsibilities. Since they were dating and he had plans of being serious, she felt obligated to share the details of her life with him. But as the days passed and he gave her an attitude, she regretted it more and more. In hindsight, she should have known that he wasn't the kind of person to bend easily but she also hasn't suspected that he would be so averse to modelling. Internally, she was really annoyed at the w

Henry wanted so bad to follow Gina up the stairs to her room, but before he heard the lock turning, he already knew it wouldn't be possible. It was clear as day to see that she was really upset with him, and while he understood why, he also didn't want to allow her to go into the world of modelling. If advicing her meant that they wouldn't speak anymore that might, he was easy to live with that. With his mind set on that, he headed upstairs as well and in few minutes, he was already in the bathroom.More than anything, he loved Gina and wanted her to be respected at all costs. Apart form her being his wife which came with a lot of respect, and prestige, she was also a woman who deserves to be valued. Not sleazy looking. Henry knew it was wrong to refer to the women like that, but a lot of times, that was how he saw them. Always scantily dressed and ready to engage in other things. The public didn't know much about him, but given who he was, he was sometimes privy to underground inform

As the chaffeur drove them home, Gina failed to understand why Henry was stopping her. She even tried to think about whether the man he was talking to had annoyed him in some way, so much so that he wanted to rub it off on her and stop her from doing what she wanted. Even though she had never really thought about becoming a model or something like that, she had always wanted a chance at spotlight. A chance for people to see how beautiful she was, on the outside. Though it was still a good thing, she sometimes got tired of having to rely on her inner beauty.In some sort of way, it sounded vain but she had long realized that in order to be happy, sometimes you needed to be selfish and put yourself out there. When she decided to go to the function with Henry, she didn't even given much thought to her outfit except the fact that she looked amazing in it. However, people complimented her on it so much detailing how it fit her body size and texture. If she was being honest with herself, it

Before Gina realized it, she and Mr. Cornwell were deep in conversation with Henry inputting something every now and then. She had learned he was a fashion icon for one of the leading designers in the country, and he was currently on the lookout for new models. Apparently, he was at the party to scout for anyone who seemed like they fit the type, and she found herself enthralled by his stories. For the first time since she arrived the party, she was actually holding a conversation with someone. Not just being by her husband's side while they discussed politics and things she didn't know about.Even though she felt that Henry wasn't very comfortable with the discussion, she couldn't help but feel a certain sense of power. She was the kind of person who actively followed style brands and fashion icons, so most of the things Mr. Cornwell said were actually stuff she could relate to and have an opinion of. After a moment of them just talking, Henry excused himself to go and greet one of t
