Chapter 3 Part 1

After the photoshoot, Valencia made her way to the new model. She herself couldn't deny that she was beautiful. With her long blonde hair and olive skin, it was needful to say her boyfriend was one lucky man.

The blonde haired lady wrapped a black robe around her frame when the director of the photoshoot decided that it was enough. The crew were packing their stuff when she realised a dark haired girl was coming close to her.

"I hope she's not one of those stalker-ish fans". She mused, but when the girl who was now before her spoke, she was certainly sure the girl wasn't a fan nor a stalker.

"Hi, I'm Valencia Ambrose and I'm gonna be working with you from today". Valencia brought out her hand with a smile on her face. "And I'm Katherine Jones". The latter said. Katherine recalled seeing Valencia at the gala the previous night.

"Oh I think you look familiar". Valencia said and Katherine thought maybe the girl would ask for her autograph or a picture with her.

"You're the girlfriend of um, Christian Silverio". She said more like asked.

Katherine couldn't understand why she suddenly felt different when Valencia concluded that she was Christian's girlfriend.

The sounds of expensive leather shoes hitting the tiled floor made every head turn into its direction. Valencia and even Katherine turned to see the cause of the sounds.

Valencia grinned widely once she saw her fiancee. She went towards him to give him a hug. He didn't necessarily return it but he patted her back and that was enough for somebody like her. Whiles on the other side, Katherine was in turmoil seeing that same face. How was she going to work with him when she had already slept with him. Katherine turned around the other way to leave when Valencia said," Kyle, meet the newest model". Kyle looked towards the woman and sucked in a breath when he saw the same woman he had daydreaming about in the shower. His eyes racked her and finally it fell on the skin showcased beneath the black robe. He cleared his throat.

"Kyle Masters". He said to her and brought out his hand. "Katherine Jones". She shook his hand. Noticing that they were shaking hands for too long, they let go of each other's immediately as if they had been shocked. Every one present obviously saw the exchange between their boss and the new model. Except Valencia. She was a very naive girl who thought she could get anything she wanted with a 'please'.

In the office of the head, Kyle was getting crazy. He never thought he'd see her so soon. Maybe a month or more. But now, he shook his head. He was to act reasonably. If he made a mistake and his emotions took over, he was going to ruin the hardwork of the employees, his father and even he himself.

Katherine sat down on the white sofa in her living room. She was dressed in white tank top with black and white gym shorts as it was eight thirty in the evening. She needed to get what happened out. She needed to tell someone. So she called her bestfriend, Blithe.

"Hey, babe". Blithe said once she picked up her after after it rang. "Hey, Blithe. Are you home?". Katherine asked her friend. "Yeah, why are you asking?". Katherine's friend asked. She sighed," I have something important to tell you".

"Can't you say it on the phone?". Blithe confusedly asked. Katherine shook her head when she realised the person on the other side of the phone couldn't see her. "No, it's too important to say on the phone and I don't wanna risk anyone hearing what I'll say".

"Okay. Whatever you say". Blithe concluded. "Thanks. I'll be there in twenty". After Blithe hunged up, Katherine immediately wore her white slippers, went towards her car, sat in and drove to Blithe's apartment.

About twenty to thirty minutes, she came to a stop. She got out of the car checking if it was locked. She made her way to the door step to see the door already opened with her bestfriend standing outside.

"Hi". They hugged eachother before they made their way inside. As they sat down, Blithe asked," What was so important that you couldn't tell me on the phone?".

Katherine took in a deep breath. "Something bad happened. I did something bad". But with a friend like Blithe who always jumped into conclusions, it was fine to say she already had some ideas.

"Did you kill someone?". Katherine rolled her eyes at friend. "No, I cheated on Christian". Blithe's eyes widened. "What?!". Blithe exclaimed. "I said-", "I know, I heard what you said".

"When did it happen?". Blithe asked looking at her bestfriend. "Yesterday at the gala we went. I don't know, it just happened. I was drunk". Katherine clarified.

"Why would you do that". Blithe put run her hands through her hair. "During this past two to three months, he has been acting weirdly. He will go to work by the time I'm sleeping and come back by the time I'm sleeping". Katherine told her friend.

"If what you're saying is true then I'll also say mine". Katherine urged her friend to continue. "Last week I saw Christian and Serah at a restaurant. They were laughing and they were happy and they even hugged". Katherine didn't like Serah one bit because let's face it, no girl would like to see her boyfriend laughing or even chatting with his ex.

"Why didn't you tell me?!". Katherine exclaimed. "I didn't think it was important". Blithe shrugged. "I think he's cheating on me". Katherine said slowly and Blithe put her hand on her back. "Look if he's cheating on you with her then you also have the right to do the same thing. If he had the guts to go behind your back then you can also do the same".

"The guy I slept with is Kyle Masters". Katherine said out of the blue and Blithe's eyes widened yet again. She thought her bestfriend had slept with someone of lower class not someone who was in the upper class.

"Doesn't he have a fiancee?". Blithe asked and Katherine nodded. "Look, whatever decision you make, I'll be with you. If you want to spend time with him, then do it". Blithe 'advised'. Katherine.

"But, he has a fiance". Katherine said. "If he loved his fiancee that much, he wouldn't have cheated on her and asked if he could see you again". Blithe clarified and added,"If you want him, say it fast before it's too late. Kyle and his fiancee would be getting married in four months time".

***********

Valencia slept in her cute Hello Kitty pajamas. It was Sunday so she didn't have work which meant she would sleep for a bit.

After forty minutes of sleeping again, she woke up and made her way to the bathroom. She took her toothbrush and put the toothpaste on it. As she was brushing her teeth, she couldn't help but think after the last two days, her fiancee had been acting weirdly. But she shrugged that thought off and blamed it on the coming fashion week. After brushing her teeth, she hopped into the shower. As the water was snaking down her body, she also run her hands down her sides. She was a girl with a curvaceous body but she of course didn't see that once Kyle had told her see was fat. Actually, she wasn't fat nor slim. She was in the middle and that body structure of her accentuated everything about her.

She got out of the shower and took a white fluffy towel and dried herself with it. She left her hair to be air dried. She put on a black top with a long white skirt and a cardigan after putting on her underwear.

As she made her way to the living room to watch television,when she noticed a figure on her sofa. "Hey!". The person said which scared the wits out of Valencia. Once Valencia got close to the person and got a good look, she sighed. "Dem, you scared me". Dement Bolat was a Turkish actress. She and Valencia had been friends since forever. Dem was one of the Turkish actors and actresses who made it to Hollywood.

"Valencia! What the hell are you wearing?". Dem demanded once she saw her bestfriend's attire. Valencia looked down. "I'm wearing clothes". She said and Dem shook her head. "These are not clothes. I've told you several times, you have a wonderful body don't be ashamed to show it". "But Kyle said I'm fat". Dem widened her eyes. "Look Val, you're not fat. Every girl would kill to have curves and a behind like yours. Even me". Dem said and for some reason, she and Kyle never liked eachother. No, they never dated. Dem just had the feeling that he wasn't good for her innocent friend. But what could she do when her friend was madly in love. Valencia chuckled.

"Dem, stop what you're trying to do". "You know what, go and change. I'm taking you somewhere." Dem pushed her bestfriend back into her room whiles she followed.
