Chapter 521 - Is it hard to show your private life? (2/2)
”J?” She stopped when she could not feel him walking beside her.
”The moon is beautiful tonight.”
She looked up at the moon, unknowingly showing a side profile with the moon shone on her face.
Without warning, he took her photo. It was so quick that she did not notice it until the end. He did not post it immediately after all. Instead, he continued his walk after holding her hand.
He started the engine without revealing his inner thought. She, already comfortable in her seat, slowly drifted to sleep. She was finally full and right now her body demanded her to rest.
She needed to steal minutes she could to sleep because she knew once she reached home and was done with the filming, she would face the interview. Ah, if only she did not agree with the filming. Screw the payment.
Wait, she could use half of the payment for the project.
Now her bitter heart no longer felt unhappy when she thought how much she could help for the kids.
The car stopped in front of her home. He looked at her and smiled to see how deep she was sleeping.
However, instead of leaning forward and kissed her lips to wake her up, he simply got out of the car and went to her side.
”Ryn, wake up. We have arrived,” he said gently as he shook her. He was careful not to be too rough until she was shocked. He wanted her to wake up slowly and gradually.
She looked at him with her blurry eyes. She was still drowsy and forgot where she was.
”We've arrived,” he whispered but did not make a move to kiss her. But his eyes shone with his dėsɨrė.
”Good night,” she said after she got out of the car.
”Night,” he said. He did not try to persuade her to allow him to stay for the night. He did not want this private side of theirs show nationwide. This was their private life and should stay private. And he knew she wanted it that way as well.
Maybe one day they would be like Jason and Mika who always showed off their relationship in their social media. But right now, they would try hard not
to be too obvious... well... as obvious as he would love to show. He wanted to show off their romance but kisses and more than that were too much for him. He was not like Jason who gleefully showed photo of him and Mika kissing during their holiday or a picture of him kissing Mika's engaged ring after the successful proposal.
The picture he secretly caught, he would not post it... yet. In fact, he would print it out and put it on his desk in the office.
”Sleep early,” he reminded before he got into the car, without a kiss.
”Bye. Drive safely,” she waved and watched as the car brought him away from her.
Covering her yawn with her hand, she turned and unlocked the door. Then, she entered it with the crews following behind.
”Miss Ryn, can we do the interview now?” The director asked carefully when he saw her yawning non-stop.
”Yeah, sure,” Ryn replied.
She sat on the chair and waited for the cameraman to adjust the focus. Then, she smiled and introduced herself with nary a show of how sleepy and exhausted she was. This different persona shocked the crews so much that they blinked their eyes at her. Silently, the director decided to show the transation during the final edit. He needed to show this to show why Ryn was loved by the brands. When working, she was serious and even when she was exhausted, no one could see it once she in her working mode. And he guessed the interview part was, for her, a part of her job.
Then, the director started asking questions based on what happened. Of course, he needed to ask about the picture scene.
”Why did you refuse to post a picture of both of you?”
Ryn scratched her nape unconsciously, trying to find the answer. She could not say that her trauma stopped her from being too... happy with their relationship. It was a way for her heart to protect her.
”I... try not to show my life too much... I mean, I like to keep my life mostly private,” she answered slowly.
”Is it hard to show your private life?”
Ryn sighed heavily. ”I don't know why people want to watch me. I am a boring person.”
Every one who was in the room just blinked their eyes at her when she said it calmly.
She smiled as she rubbed her nape awkwardly. Did she just say something weird... again?
