Just as I walked to the first floor I heard someone yelling, the voice was so loud that It made the whole floor silent, a crowd was already gathered there.
" Hey! How long are you going to keep me waiting!?"
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!"
" Hmm…Looks like someone was terribly late, huh!" I muttered to no one in particular.
[ To me humans don't seem so respectable race ]
"Hey, your husband is also a former human!!" I retorted to her remark.
[ But not now ]
"Right, but it's not like you are wrong. And why do I get the feeling like I am forgetting something here and this scenario in front of me is giving me a strong sense of deja vù"
I feels like I had seen this somewhere but I am not able to recall it for some reason but it should not possible for me to forget something, my memories are in a preserved State and I remember every detail very clearly from my early twenties to yesterday.
[ Hey, honey remove your cap.]
" Why?" As I was sinking in my thoughts, Sera's voice woke me up, and she told me to remove my cap which I used as a shield to filter out those annoying gazes.
[ Just do it, for now I will tell you later.
Hurry up ]
As Rudra was engrossed in his thoughts seras was paying attention to the scene going around the surrounding.
"It's not enough with just apologies! I've been waiting for more than an hour in here!? You really have guts to make me wait!?"
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry…!"
"Errr… Hikari-san. I don't really mind it."
"Miu-chan! You must not spoil him! It's not good for the other party if you overslept!"
"Y-yes, but…"
"Also, if you hear his reason for oversleeping was because of a hangover, then there's no room for apologies anymore… It's natural for me to be angry! Compared to that, Miua-chan is admirable. You're serious with this even though you've become very famous now… I just want this bastard to follow you as an example to not always fall behind schedule."
"A-ahahaha…"
Due to Sera and Rudra being linked together through their soul, when in their merged state Rudras all senses and Skills are available for Sera to control as she wish and she was using Rudras eyes as her own and seeing the event of the anime play in front of her and she couldn't believe that she got the chance to bag a heroine so soon as it has not even been two days since she was able to take her humanoid form.
Looking at the yell direction, a muscular man dressed in a flashy pink shirt was yelling at a man in a suit with his head down, in a diminished appearance. Behind them, there's a woman with loose wavy brown hair, whose excellent appearance could be seen from a distance, was soothing the man with a muscular figure.
(Is'nt that Miu? Hmm… hehe) Sera made a plan and it can be guessed that it was a plan that would irritate Rudra even more if he were to be dragged into this mess, even if he got a heroine as a result.
When looked closely, the muscular man was holding a camera and something like photography equipment? There are many things like that lined up around him. Looks some kind of photoshoot. And that lady seems to be kind of a celebrity around here.
"But you also have another schedule, right? Therefore, it will be bad for you, so this time I'll just do it with Miu-chan alone."
"T-that's…"
"There's no problem, right? I'm a professional, so I'll be sure to do it! It's not like I'm saying I'll only use one model like this from now on, you know. Well, of course, I'll never use someone who likes to be late like this guy again."
"Y-yes…"
"But I'm in trouble. As for today's composition, I was thinking of using another male model at this time with Miu-chan since it was a product for a couple… Hey, on this occasion, we might use an acceptable ordinary man in this shopping mall. You have all the sizes of clothes, don't you?" He asked the staff.
"Yes, we have everything."
"Okay, then… Ah, what about the man over there? Hey! You there!"
Rudra ignored the show and turned around wanting to leave although he was feeling he forgot something important. Rudra was was so engrossed chatting with sera that he had unconsciously removed his cap which let free his black hair and his black shining eyes which even with mask covering his face cannot hide his charm. And the man called Rudra as soon as his eyes caught his retreating back.
"Hey you there, the one who seems to be trying to leave!"
'… Hmm? What is it, it seems like someone is calling' He turned back.
"Yes, you. The one who's looking around! Can you wait for a moment?"
"Huh?"
As Rudra turned around every one was stunned, the muscular man, the staff the modle lady every body was stunned, they hadn't seen such a perfect and handsome man till now, even the most famous models look like a toddler infront of this man. For a moment, even the crowd got silent as they stare the god like face of the man whose mood was worsening as he was under those annoying gazes again.
Suddenly as Rudra was observing the model lady, you can a lightning bolt striked in his background as the understanding dawn on him and he became strangely calm and less irritated after realising what he had forgotten and what was happening right now.
"You! Would you like to participate in this photoshoot!?"
"... Yeah." Rudra in his moment of realisation didn't even hesitate and reflexively said yes, seeing this sera could not hold back and started laughing.
[ Hahahahah 😆😆🤣🤣🤣😂😂 ]
∆∆∆∆
"Yeees! It looks good! Yes yes! Ah, I want him to have more sexy feelings here! look sideways, please look sideways!"
[ You are such a sinful man, Rudra ]
' Hey what did I do know?' I asked sera as she was repeating this over and over again from the moment I started the photoshoot.
Rudra is now in a serious pickle! Usually, he has no problem talking to girls, but when the girl is as beautiful as an angel, he starts sweating like he's in a sauna! His confidence takes a nosedive faster than a cat jumping off a hot tin roof!
Ever since he accidentally said "yes" to the photoshoot, he's been sweating like a sinner in church! Rudra's got big dreams of building a massive family tree with heroines galore, tying the knot left, right, and center, and diving headfirst into romance! But hey, let's face it, all of that will only happen when he learns the ABCs of chatting up and flirting with the ladies! His Mrs. Is more like a software program stuck in his system, residing in his soul rent-free! So, he's never had to verbalize his emotions, and he even boasts a unique title in his status as sera says: "The World's Worst Flirt!" What a champ!
Miu is undeniably beautiful, but Rudra is no slouch either! Ever since he ditched his mask and cap, people can't stop staring at him. With his silky smooth black hair and those black eyes sparkling mysteriously, and his broad shoulders and height, he's become quite the head-turner! People have never seen such a handsome man before.
And when Rudra and Miu are together, they look like a match made in heaven. It's like they were destined to be together!
Hikari san has really thrown himself into his work lately because that lazy model goofed off and got drunk, ruining his reputation. Compared to him, Rudra is a thousand times better, even if he struggles with posing. But when Miu catches his hat or when there's an intimate pose, everyone's heart starts racing at the sight of Rudra's cuteness and innocence.
Poor guy, even though he's a bit of a pervert, he doesn't ogle at girls with dirty eyes. He respects personal space and only gets close to those who are close to his heart.
Hikari San clicked many photos, but something seemed missing. When he saw that Miu was tired, he said, "Let's take a short break. Get the models some cold drinks."
Upon hearing this, Rudra sat down at a table, and Miu approached, asking, "Can I sit here?"
"Of course, go ahead," Rudra said, making room for her on the left side. Miu sat down, letting out a sigh of relief.
Miu had worked with many models before, but none were as handsome and gentle as Rudra. They all wanted to take advantage of every opportunity, but Miu had to endure it all to succeed in the industry.
However, working with Rudra today, something stirred in Miu, and she couldn't help but blush. Meanwhile, Rudra closed his eyes, having a heartfelt conversation with Seraphina in his mind.
In Rudra's mind:
"You've landed me in a mess, my dear. I wasn't ready for this, and I haven't even mastered those dating games to learn how to woo a girl! Ha!" I exclaimed, expressing my frustration.
[Stop being a crybaby, buddy. Don't get caught up in those games. Look, just your face is enough to make a girl fall in love with you.]
"But I want a girl to love me for who I am, not just for my looks and what they see on the surface," I said. Though if I wanted to, charming a girl wouldn't be a big deal. If I went up to any girl and flashed a smile, she'd be hooked. But I want someone who's a wife material; I don't want a one-night stand like a prostitute.
[Ha! Look who's talking, the one with the title "Worst flirting man ever seen," hahaha. I know you better than you think, dear.]
"Kh...ugh...Alright!" Why is she rubbing salt on the wound? Is she trying to make me cry? I'll have a heart attack.
[Stop overthinking now. Just talk to her like you would with anyone else. Look, she's coming. Take a deep breath, keep your cool, and best of luck, sweetheart.]
At the same time, someone called out to me and said, "Can I sit here?"
