Chapter 6
Hello minna, here is the chapter where Kazuha is getting herself into the modeling world. I wanna apologize because I crap a lot in this chapter, don't blame me because I'm don't know much about modeling stuff. So, gomen neh……
"No…no…not like this…"
"Lift up your chest a bit more…"
"Sway your hips…."
Many of these voices were surrounding her as she passed by the hall where modeling lessons were held. She would be taking those lessons soon, sighed Kazuha. Today was her first lesson but Kyou suggested that she should undergo a 'change' before she starts her lessons. Here she is being lead to a room waiting for her turn. Luckily, Kyou promised to accompany her so, she won't be that nervous.
"Now…relax…. they won't hurt you…. they are just gonna trim your hair a bit…. and your body…just fine." Kyou said gently squeeze her palm trying to comfort Kazuha. Kazuha smiled nervously.
How the hell did he know my body is perfect? Not that it is really perfect…sigh…how disappointing…Maybe he is a pervert thought Kazuha eyeing him suspiciously. Kazuha just sat silently on her seat waiting for her turn. A few minutes later, a busty looking woman who called herself Lucy or whatever…. escort Kazuha into a room.
Kazuha sat in a small room surrounded with pink wall and a mirror taking up the whole back wall. Kazuha felt kind of weird and uncomfortable with the silence around them. To her amazement, her makeup stylist named Lucy…. if she was not mistaken started a conversation.
"So…. first time modeling?"
"Yea……"
"You seems nervous…don't worry, all beginners are the same. They feel nervous at first but when you get use to it you will be worrying about something else instead of this. I mean what could get wrong? It is only a job…so relax and leave the job to me. I'll change you to a beautiful swan in no time. Trust me…I'm the best."
Kazuha smiled at her makeup stylist thanking her for trying to cheer her up. Although she was quite a boastful person yet she was able to calm her down in such a way she couldn't be able to describe it.
The makeup stylist, Lucy applied tons of foundations and then wiped practically all of it off. She next added a soft pink lipstick and swiftly puffed her cheek with blushers. Then she look at Kazuha's face up close and turned her head from side to side muttering under her breath which Kazuha couldn't catch what she was saying. Finally, she spoke up.
"You have such beautiful eyes…. just a little puffy…. but and eye liner would do…besides it will clearly show off your glassy eyes…."
Ten minutes later, Lucy had finally finished with her makeup and brought Kazuha to the 'HAIR' room.
As Kazuha stepped in, her hairdresser whom they addressed themselves as Juan and Joanne pulled her in cheerfully. They seem to be an outgoing person from the way they always smiles.
"Ano…. sorry if I'm required a lot of work from you guys…you see my hair…" said Kazuha sheepishly. Kazuha hair seems to be a mess where all the ends of her hair seem to be sticking out everywhere. Kazuha had tried many kinds of hair treatment before but they seem not to work at all, no wonder Heiji calls her a broomstick…sigh………
"Don't worry honey, we have seen worst. Those superstars you saw on screen, a lot of them are worse than you before they famed up. We will fix up your hair, just sit still and relax."
The two of them propped Kazuha in a leaning chair and begin to wash her hair.
"What we are gonna do is some straightening and we'll volume up your hair."
After they washed her hair they started combing her hair. During the process they manage to pull out some of her tangled-up hair. After an hour of combing and blowing, they finally finished with her hair. Kazuha looked up into the mirror and her eyes widened when she saw her own reflection on the mirror and screamed in happiness.
"Oh my god! I love it! Thank you! Thank you so much!"
Kazuha jumped down from her chair and gave them each a tight hug. Next, Kazuha was lead to a fitting room. She gapped by the sight in the room. Dresses, tops, bikinis…. whatever you mention, everything is there. A chubby looking man with sunglasses chirped happily at Kazuha while showing her what to wear. Kazuha's jaws widen when she saw the dress he was holding.
"Are you telling me that I have to go out wearing this piece of cloth?"
"It's a dress honey, from Milan to be exact."
"But you can hardly call this a dress…. it look more like a thin piece of cloth covering your body…"
"Don't worry; it will cover what is supposed to be cover."
"That's the point! I can't show my face with 'this'…it's…it's too embarrassing…"
Kazuha looked down at her so-called dress…well…you could hardly call it a dress. It was a bikini-like dress, which reveals a bit of her abdomen with a wrap-around skirt with pink flip-flops. This dress was just too…revealing to be exact. To be honest, she didn't really mind wearing this piece of cloth, it makes her feel sexy…and all…woman…it awoke some kind of feeling within her that she never felt in all her 18 years of living in this world. She kind of like that feeling…it's just that she doesn't know what people might think of her. Would they think of her as pretty? Stylish? Or maybe…a smug? Oh…especially Heiji…the most important think is what would HE think of her? Kazuha groaned at the thought. He would probably just shrugged it off as if it was just a another boring day or maybe worse, he would probably laugh his head off and say that a tomboy like her doesn't fit in these skimpy clothes. Kazuha sighed…whatever…she don't care how he really thinks; she really wanted to change herself into something she had always dreamed of since young. Now she had a chance, why not give it a try?
Suddenly, a knock at the door interrupted Kazuha's thoughts.
knock
knock
"Darren, is our little princess done yet?" Kazuha whipped her head around. It's Kyou's voice…he actually cared to wait for me during the whole process? Ah…of course he is waiting for me…he says that I'm his model under his care…don't make self conclusions, Kazuha…Suddenly, the guy who dresses her up named Darren gave her a push towards the door and Kazuha accidentally bumped into someone leaning on the doorframe, which obviously is Kyou. Kyou grabbed her by the waist before she landed on her face.
"Hey…hey…watch out…you don't wanna spoil your pretty face by giving it a bruise would cha'? By the way let me have a good look at my model, shall…"
Kyou's words were cut off when his eyes landed on her small frame in his arms. Kazuha looked up still embarrassed at her position. Kyou's eyes were practically bulging out and his jaws were hanging slightly opened. Kyou had expected only a slight change in her after the 'make over' process. He had never imagine this girl in particular could change dramatically this much after the process. Sure…he had seen quite a number of so-called nerdy girls change into beautiful swans before but none had catch his eyes like this girl in his arms does. Something about her makes him difficult to take his eyes off hers…wait a minute…did he just say she was in his arms? Kyou released Kazuha for his embrace immediately and blushed for a moment. Damn…he was acting as if he was still sixteen…sigh…it was six years ago then…
Damn…what was wrong with him? A second ago, he just stares at me with an expression of seeing a pig climbing a tree then, he looked as if he was deep in thoughts not noticing he was still grabbing me and the fact that I couldn't free myself from his powerful grasped. Then a while ago when he finally realized that he was still holding me, he immediately released me from his embrace. Hey…did I just see a blush? No way…I must be seeing things…
"So…Kazuha, how do you feel?" he asked as a matter of fact.
"Umm…. I fell great! Really…and it is all thanks to you. So…when do you want me to start working?"
"Nope, not now. You can go back first and make yourself comfortable and get use with your new image, ok"?
"Ariagatoo, Kyou kun. I appreciate that."
"So, do you want a lift?"
"Iye, I think I'll just walk home with Ran…Oh yeah, Ran! I forgot about her…oh no…I think I'll make a move first. Thank you so much and bye…see you tomorrow…".
Kazuha grabbed her purse, which was left long forgotten on the lounge sofa and ran to meet Ran. Kazuha spotted Ran at the corner of a vending machine looking bored. Poor Ran, thought Kazuha. Maybe I'll treat her for a lunch.
To be continuing…how would Heiji react to Kazuha's sudden change of appearance? Will it be the same as Kyou? Or the opposite?
Finally…I have finished with this chapter…phew…. sorry for the late update because
I'm….ok, I admit…I'm just a bit lazy…hehehe…don't flame me plz….so that's it for this chapter…sorry, if I have made a lot of mistakes, I hope you guys will still continue to support me. Your supportive reviews are the best for me….Arigatoo…wait for the next chapter….ja ne…..
