Scene: A Private Rooftop Welcome Dinner at SheVanta HQ
Setting:
The golden evening sun paints the rooftop in warm hues. A long table is set under soft fairy lights and modern lanterns, with plush seating and a view of the city skyline. It's elegant but cozy—Aurlith elegance with Nadia's touch.
Nadia (dressed in a flowing yet sleek outfit from Aurlith's unreleased collection) stands at the head of the table, smiling as Elijah, Zara, Martin, Grace, and Alys settle in. The atmosphere is relaxed, yet there's anticipation.
Nadia:
"I thought before we dive into shoots and schedules, we could have something slower… More personal. After all, SheVanta runs on trust, not just timelines."
Martin (grinning):
"I was told there'd be food, so I trust you completely already."
(Laughter all around)
Zara:
"It's rare to meet a CEO who hosts dinners for models. This is… really refreshing."
Alys:
"That's just how she is. She built SheVanta like a family, not a factory."
Elijah (softly, with curiosity):
"You said you chose us yourself, right? It's hard to believe we were hand chosen. Was there something particular you were looking for?"
Naida (meeting his eyes for a second too long):
"I look for a certain light in people. The kind that shines even when the cameras are off. You all have that… especially you, Elijah."
(He blinks, surprised, but smiles with quiet humility.)
Grace:
"So… We're not just pretty faces?"
Nadia:
"You are, but that's a bonus. What matters is that you can hold space for people. That's the kind of presence Aurlith needs."
Nadia(softly)
"i want to ask you guys something."
Everyone nodded.
Nadia:
"What did you think when you found out you were chosen for Aurlith?"
A pause.
"Not the polished answer. The real one."
(They glance at each other. Then Zara shrugs.)
Zara:
"Honestly? I thought they sent it to the wrong Zara."
(A few laughs.)
"I've worked hard, but Aurlith… it's the luxury brand. I couldn't believe I was even considered."
Martin:
"Same here. I thought it was a mistake or some elaborate prank. I checked the email three times before it sank in."
(He chuckles.)
"Then I screamed. Like a grown man."
Grace:
"I cried. I'm not even going to act cool."
(Zara puts a hand on her shoulder supportively.)
"I was told I was too soft for high fashion. And then this brand—your brand—chose me. It felt like someone finally saw what I was trying to show."
(Nadia listens with quiet intensity, her eyes warm.)
Alys (softly):
"She smiled like this when she finalized the list. Like she knew she was about to change people's lives."
(Now all eyes land on Rabin. He sits with his elbows on his knees, fingers laced. Thoughtful. Shy—but not afraid.)
Elijah(quiet, thoughtful):
"When my agency told me I was chosen for Aurlith, I was... quiet. Just listening."
(He lets out a breath, glancing up briefly at Nadia)
"I knew Aurlith. Everyone does. The designs are stunning. But it wasn't just that."
(The group listens, quiet.)
Elijah:
"It was your name attached to it that made me stop and really think."
(He smiles a little, shy but honest.)
"I'd seen interviews. Pictures. You always looked like you belonged in a different league. And not because of clothes or luxury—but because of how you carried it all. Quiet power, I guess."
(He pauses.)
"Part of me wondered why was I chosen."
(He gives a short laugh—modest, not fishing for praise.)
"But I said yes. Not just because of the brand. Because it felt like a challenge. Because you all know I don't like to lock myself. I like to explore everything. And I was being trusted to represent something more than just fashion."
(He lifts his gaze to Nadia, steady now.)
Nadia:
(Giving a warm smile)
" I chose you all because I already knew about you all. Your energy matched my requirements for Aurlith. And I'm sure you will never disappoint me."
And like this they all created their bond . A bond to a new starting.

Scene: Aurlith Grand Hall – Official Reveal Event
The hall is charged with anticipation. Elegant guests, fashion insiders, and the press wait as the lights dim and the Aurlith insignia glows on the stage. Everything is sleek, powerful, and intentional.
Host (V.O.)
"Tonight marks a new chapter in Aurlith's legacy. Please welcome the faces of our next era…"
Reveal Begins
Zara
She steps out with quiet confidence, head high, energy sharp and composed. Her presence is magnetic—commanding respect without needing to ask for it.
Martin
Cool and grounded, Martin moves like he's done this forever—but still treats the moment like it matters. He carries charm and calm strength effortlessly.
Grace
Soft but steady, Grace's energy radiates a kind of calm power—like a person who knows her worth and has nothing to prove anymore.
They line up beside one another, united in elegance and presence. There's a pause. Then the lights shift again.
Host (with gravity)
"And now… the face of Aurlith. Performer. Vision. Voice. Elijah Marquez."
Elijah's Entrance
He walks onto the stage, every step quiet but full of weight. His presence is serene, grounded, but impossible to ignore. There's a natural grace in his pace—like he's not performing, just existing as himself.
He doesn't look like he's trying to impress—he just is. And that's what impresses most.
Cut to: Nadia— Watching Live
In a quiet, modern suite across the world, Nadia watches everything unfold on her tablet. Her face is still, but her eyes are alive—watching intently as Elijah takes his place beside the models.
She leans back slightly in her chair, lips curved just barely upward.
Back at the Hall – Press Q&A Begins
Alys steps forward, signaling the start of the press session. Rabin steps slightly ahead of the group, poised and relaxed.
Reporter 1
"Elijah, what did it mean to be chosen as Aurlith's brand ambassador?"
Elijah (calm, warm):
"It meant I was being trusted. Aurlith has a very intentional presence—it stands for something. Being asked to represent that felt... personal. And I don't take that lightly."
Reporter 2
"How would you describe Aurlith in one word?"
Elijah (pauses briefly, then softly):
"Presence."
There's a hum of appreciation among the audience.
Reporter 3
"What do you want people to feel when they see you as the face of this brand?"
Elijah (smiles gently):
"I hope they feel understood. Like they don't have to shout to be seen. That they're allowed to be quiet and still take up space."
Cut to: Nadia
On her tablet, Elijah's face is lit by stage lights. His words hang in the air. Nadia watches, silent, eyes focused. Then—just for a second—she smiles. Not the public smile. The real one.
Nadia (quietly to herself):
"You remembered."
Aurlith HQ – Private Meeting Room (Few Days Before the Event)
The room is bathed in afternoon light, quiet and softly elegant. The team—Elijah, Zara, Martin, Grace, and Alys—are seated around a long matte-black table. Nadia enters, tablet in hand, then sets it down and takes a seat with them, removing the formality instantly.
Nadia(commanding):
"I wanted to talk to you all before the reveal. Just us. No cameras, no chaos."
Everyone leans in slightly. Rabin looks attentive but quietly curious.
Nadia:
"I won't be at the press conference."
A pause. A few surprised glances. Zara raises an eyebrow, but no one speaks—waiting for her to explain.
Nadia:
"I'm still tied to SheVanta's larger operations. Aurlith is a piece of the empire, not the whole. My presence makes headlines—and right now, this moment shouldn't be about me."
She looks at each of them in turn.
Nadia (calmly, sincerely):
"It should be about you. Your presence. Your voices. You are Aurlith's future. And that needs to be clear."
Grace nods slowly, understanding dawning. Elijah's eyes stay on her, processing it all.
Martin:
"So... what do you want us to say?"
Nadia (soft smile):
"Nothing scripted. I chose you because you carry yourselves with grace. I trust you to speak honestly—but intentionally."
She turns slightly toward Rabin.
Nadia:
"If they ask why you said yes—don't just talk about fashion. Talk about meaning. About presence. You don't need to sell the brand. Just stand for it."
Then to the group:
Nadia:
"You don't have to be loud. You don't have to prove anything. Be real. That's what makes people listen."
They all take that in. Zara breathes out slowly, a quiet smile forming. Martin leans back, thoughtful. Grace nods.
Alys, standing near the door, adds gently:
Alys:
"She always says—SheVanta builds people, not just platforms."
Nadia (looking at them with quiet pride):
"You don't need me there to shine. But I'll be watching. Every word. Every look."
Elijah finally speaks, voice soft but steady:
"We won't disappoint you."
Nadia (meeting his eyes, smiling slightly)
"I know."
The scene fades out, leading into the present where they're standing confidently at the reveal—just like she told them to.
Backstage – Moments After the Reveal
Alys
"You all did great She was watching, by the way."
That makes everyone look up.
Zara:
"She really meant it. She wasn't here, but… it still felt like she was."
Martin (half-laughs):
"I kept hearing her in my head. 'Be real, not loud.' That's hard when you've got twenty cameras waiting."
Grace (smiling softly):
"I kept hearing the way she said, 'You don't need to prove anything.' I didn't even realize how badly I needed to hear that until she said it."
They all go quiet for a second. Then Elijah speaks—low and steady.
Elijah:
"She trusted us with her brand. Not to wear it… but to be it."
Alys:
"Alright, time to go. Next week, you have a photoshoot for the magazine. After that, there'll be a group shoot with the Boss—though that one isn't scheduled yet. She's a busy person, after all."
