Ryanne was waiting for Ashton at the parking lot.
His five minutes was almost up.
She took her phone ready to call him but spotted him racing towards her.
Ashton:" Let's go."
Ryanne:" Don't you have drama rehearsal?"
Ashton:" I been excused."
Ryanne: "Oh really?"
Ashton:" Yeah!"
Ryanne:" I don't think I can take you home. I've got somewhere to be."
Ashton: Yeah. Let's go. I'd follow you."
Ryanne tried to disagree.
Ashton: I insist. We're on a deal, don't forget."
Ryanne with no choice gave in.
....
Bejie Studios...
Ashton and Ryanne were led in by one of the crew members into the studio's lobby.
The assistant director was present.
He shook hands with her.
He was Kayden Bill.
Kayden: " It's good to see you Miss Ryanne Essel. I'm Kayden Bill."
He looked at Ashton and asked Ryanne
Kayden:" Who's this?"
Before Ryanne could answer, Ashton replied
Ashton:" Just a tag along. Hi, I'm Ashton."
Kayden:" Nice to meet you. You sound like the guy who answered her phone the last time."
Ashton:" That's a good memory. Yes I am."
Kayden:" Let's go to the lounge. Your partner is waiting."
They met the partner on their way to the lounge.
He went to grab some snacks and was heading back.
Kayden received a call and told them to go ahead.
Partner:" Hey, guess you're my partner, right?"
Ryanne:" Yeah"
Partner:" I'm Isen Blake."
Ryanne:" Ryanne Essel"
Isen:" Nice to meet you."
They shook hands.
Ashton:" Ryanne, want some water?"
Ryanne:" I'm good."
Isen:"Oh, your boyfriend, I see."
Ryanne:" Pfft, my PET!"
Ashton:" Jeez! Ryanne you're so rude. How could you debase me into no other than a pet. Pfft sucks;"
Ryanne:" Yeah, that's what you get."
Ashton:" You could have been kinder. I'm Ashton next to the throne of the Miles, captain of the KQ Basketball team, an intelligent student, Worthy School King of Kings'and Queens'-"
Ryanne:" Yadda, yadda, yadda pfft. Just like to show off."
Isen:" You duo are sure a kind."
The trio sat in three separate couches.
Kayden returned.
Kayden:" Sorry, I had to answer that. So nice meeting you once again. Mr. Blake, Miss Essel and ..."
Ryanne:" My pet . Exclude him."
Kayden:" Let's zoom straight to business."
DimeLight also known as DiLi was a new brand that was recently established and and invested into by the Berry Family. They were producers in cosmetics- make ups, moisturizers, body creams and others.
They asked Bejie Magazines - one of the top tier magazine producers in Crystalvile to advertise their products. Bejie Company remanded they give them the privilege to choose the models for the endorsement of DiLi products.
Isen Blake was one of the best product endorsement models.
The director of Bejie, Kyle Frank was an old classmate of Bridget Mel-Jaxon. Using old time relationship connection and Ryanne's previous achievements, Kyle suggested Ryanne endorses this product to get her back to her peak. Bridget didn't hesitate. After all, Ryanne doesn't know what's best, she thought.
After Kayden enlightened them on everything they had to do, he told them to take the rest of the time off to socialize.
Isen:" Well, endorsing this product isn't that bad, don't you see that?"
Ryanne:" Maybe"
Isen turned to Ashton. He was focused on a sheet.
Isen:" What's your pet up to?"
Ryanne:" Dunno"
Isen got up and walked silently behind Ashton and quickly snatched the sheet out of his hand.
Ashton:" Hey give it back!"
Isen:" 'Don't leave me Romeo, I can't live without you.' Is this a script?"
Ashton:" Yeah. We're showcasing it on the next Saturday"
Isen:" I see. Romeo and Juliet."
Ashton:" Yeah. I'm Romeo."
Isen:" Nice role"
Ashton:" Yeah, well deserved for a nice guy like mí "
Isen:" Tsk, tsk, tsk. Don't get cocky because of one role. I'm a pro in acting."
Ashton:" You can't be serious."
Isen:" Alright. I'll act a scene then you judge if I fit to be your teacher. Deal?"
Ashton:" Alright. Let's see what a pro actor you are"
Isen: " It's a done deal."
