Show time Mandy's POV

I park in an empty parking space and check the time only to find out it's 2 minutes to 9am. I rush into the building.

" Good morning Becca." I greeted cheerfully. Becca lift's her head from the pile of papers she is working on and gives her charmingly beautiful smile.

" Good morning sweetheart. How are you today?" she asks warmly. Trust me she is like a mother to me and she is able to brighten my day.

" If I wasn't fine, now, I am because of your beautiful smile" I answer.

" Aww dear, you always make my day." she tells me and I smile at her.

" It's my pleasure" I say smirking and she giggled.

" Got to go see ya latter and don't miss me too much" I tell her while making my way to the elevator.

" See you hunny and I definitely will be missing you" I hear her respond from behind.

I quickly press a button to open the elevator and fortunately for me, it opei immediately. I walk in and pressed a button to take me to the 5th floor. That is the floor where most shows are shot. Mostly, it only decorations and positions that are changed. It's actually a huge plane space.

When I get to the 5th floor, the elevator stops and I walk out of it.

" Hey little girl" Of course it's Joel always calling me 'little girl'. He is standing right in front of the dressing room. He is in a black tailored suit which hugs his perfect body like it was made solely for him. It was actually made for him though. He can wear even a simple shirt and pants and still looking stunning. He doesn't make any effort to look good. All the time I used in admiring his killer features, I didn't notice him come closer. I am snapped out of my thought when he speaks and I realize he is closer now.

"What is the time?" he questions, trying his best to look serious but fails miserably. I pick my phone from my bag to check in he time. It actually 12 minutes past 9. why is the time running so fast? I have only less 43 than minutes to get everything ready for the show to be able to commerce. I open my mouth to speak but perfect, the only thing that makes it's way out is

" Erm, Erm...."

" what?, can't hear you or can't you talk? You can Erm Erm me latter but now...." He lift his hands to take a look at his wrist watch and smirks and I know he wants to tease me. He is actually already doing so and that irritating smirk on his face, I don't know but I just want to peel it off. He starts to walk towards the Hall and when he gets to the door he turns to see me still tooted in the spot he left me, giving him a killer smile.

" You can ogle at me later hunny, but now, it's show time." Gush , why does he always surprise me with his words? He is still damn smirking then like the cartoons, a light bulb stands on top of my head showing that I have an idea. I smiled. I gave him my brightest dimpled smile and went to stand right beside him to whisper

" Aww hunny, you wish...." then I changed my smile into an expression of disgust " You are not my type, I won't waste my time on you." I walk forward a little the turn my head to him and smirked at him and then continued my journey to prepare his show room. I stood to see how fat things are gone and how I could help out. Cameras all over, decorations are almost done and so many people walking around to put things in order. When I was about to move to get the information ready for the show, I realize there are two chairs. 'Do we have a guest?' I asked myself because I don't remember making preparations for that. Then I feel someone standing behind me. Of course it's no one else but Joel. He bends to look at me and whispers

" Neither are you hunny, 5"1 I guess?" His smirk was back and just as I was about to speak, Stephen, the producer and Director of " The Celebrity fun time" calls out my name.

" Hey Mandy." I turn to him, knowing he is going to state the obvious.

"Erm Stephen....."

"You are late" he tells me.

"Erm, I guess." I answer.

" You guess?" " okay, that's by the way. I have thought of a way to add more life to the show and so today you will be joining Joel on set and now we have 25 minutes more for show to start and I will give 20 minutes to get ready. I have already spoken to Estelle." He did not even give me a choice and he made this decision without my consent. This shouldn't be a problem because in school, we had a media team and since I am a journalism student, I have have done a couple of shows on our school television station but this is notional television and this is a big deal. I stand there lost in my own thought.

" hey, did you hear that?" Joel question with a smirk. It feels like today, the world is against me. I am boiling so much in anger but do I have a choice? I shoot dagger with my eyes at Joel and walk to the dressing room.

As soon as I walk in, Estelle takes my wrist and drags me to a huge closet. She then pulls out an ash long pencil dress. It is the most beautiful dress I have ever set my eyes on. It is a 3/4 sleeve dress which flows down to the ground but doesn't touch the ground. It has an opening at the front right side which starts in the middle of a thigh right down. It's shows the thigh flesh teasingly not exposing too much an not hiding to much either. The middle of the breast has a small reveal space and on every breast has a small oval space making it more than a tease. This dress is actually like a teaser. It's just like revealing and hiding all at the same time. The dress is exquisite and when Estelle hands it to me, I am just so mesmerized.

" I know this dress will be perfect on your body hunny, hurry up and put it on. we don't have much time." Estelle tells me.
