Ann met Kashiwagi

Upon entering the room that the photo shoot would take place in, Ann’s eyes immediately darted over the Kashiwagi, the man of the hour.

He was an older man, pushing 50 with a prominent bald spot on the top of his head, but somehow he managed to pull it off. He was dressed in a casual grey suit with a camera wrapped around his neck.

As he was talking to Ann’s manager, he caught a glimpse at the blonde and immediately turned to face her.

“Oh my! So you’re Ann Takamaki?” He said with awe. His eyes traveled up and down Ann’s long and slender body, transfixed on her curves like he was studying an art piece. He reminded her of Yusuke in a way.

“Y-Yep! And you must be Kashiwagi-sensei!” Ann said nervously as she approached. She bowed in front of him to pay respects.

“No no…” Kashiwagi said with a smile on his face as he shook his head. “No need for the praise and formalities. I should really be grateful to have you be my subject, Takamaki-san! I’ve heard the rumors of your beauty, but now that I’ve seen said beauty in person, I’m confident in my choice of choosing you as my model for People of Japan!”

“For real?!” Ann replied in disbelief.

“Yes. And if today’s shoot goes well, I might have you be on the cover!”

“T-The cover?!?” Ann and her Manager said in unison.

“I’m confident that your beautiful face and body will make our magazine sell like hotcakes! Besides, I haven’t had the chance to photograph our usual front cover model for quite some time due to her traveling abroad.”

Ann struggled to comprehend what Kashiwagi was saying at that point, but all she understood was that her face would be on the cover of The People of Japan! She could barely contain her excitement as her smile grew brighter.
