I left the studio to get some fresh air. The light outside was soft and fading in the late afternoon. The sky had changed to a shade of amber and rose. A soft wind brushed against me carrying the subtle aroma of the jasmine from nearby garden.
Smell good. I tried to clam the strange restlessness inside me by closing my eyes for a while. She was nothing more than my temporary assistant. I heard footsteps light and cautious. I knew it was her without looking back.
"Director Shen said you left before the final photo check."
"I needed some air ."
I said without looking back to her .
She hesitate before approaching,
"Did something happen?"
"Nothing wrong"
I turned to face her.
The sun light softly framed her features. I finally said,
"Just a long day."
She nodded slowly
"You have another photoshoot tomorrow morning."
"Don't stay up too late reviewing everything again."
