Chapter Seventeen
"You should sleep."
Celestine consecutively blinked as she couldn't believe the reason why Vincent had called her.
"Wait, you asked the maid to call me just for you to say that I should sleep?"
Vincent faced her, his back leaning against his desk while hands were on his pocket, his disheveled hair was preventing her to stare into his eyes. His hair was a bit long which Celestine hadn't noticed before. Vincent maintained his hair waxed that every time she sees his hair she recalls thinking about James Bond's hairstyle. But tonight was different. He looked someone else to Celestine.
"You'll go to an early shoot for tomorrow so you better sleep early tonight. I already contacted your manager about it."
Celestine crossed her arms around her chest.

She's certain that it was Vincent's men."The location is a bit far from here. You can still sleep," Lander said, his eyes still focused on the road.She yawned, making her eyesight a little blurry. "It's okay I'm fine.""You're not. You should take nap. I'll just wake you up once we get there," he insisted.Celestine is sleepy.

The man on his black t-shirt with a craggy face gets a wine glass from the waitress that walked past him, chinking other glasses on the tray. He chuckled then sit properly on the couch, leaning his back comfortably on the backrest of his seat. "I heard from Leandro that you already ask for that woman's information from Vladimir. What else do you want to know about her huh?" Vincent put the cigarette between his lips and emerges something out from his coat. Edward drank his wine, emptying the wine glass that made his cheeks blush as he was waiting for Vincent to say something. He put the empty glass on the table. "What's that?" Vincent nudged the checkbook to him. Edward smirked. "Name your price,

Celestine hugged herself for warmth as the chillness of the wind etched into her skin down to her bones, making her shiver.She wandered her eyes and saw everything in the shade of yellow and green—sunlight slanted on the trees, lively color of the green grass, and yellow flowers surrounded her feet from where she's standing. Celestine inhaled and closed her eyes. Her hair is swaying in every gust of the wind."Open your eyes, darling." Celestine opened her eyes automatically upon hearing that voice."Daddy..." she said a little louder. He didn't respond. He just stared at her, his lips in a thin line, eyes on her, hands on his back."Where are you now?" she asked, almost like a whisper, still astonished by the fact that she's standing in front of her father."Come," he spread his arms. "Hug your daddy."Celestine shook her head. "N-No... Just stay there.""Don't you miss your Daddy?" he asked without an ounce of emotion express

No one dared to break the silence between them. When Celestine calms a bit down, she insisted Lander continue driving for she doesn't want to be late, even though it was obvious that they're already late for the shoot.Celestine glanced to Lander whose eyes were intently looking on the road. He had been so enthralled by the morning scenery that he hardly noticed Celestine's gaze on him.She pulled a genuine weak smile. She couldn't befriend someone in two days but in Lander's case, it becomes possible. She's not friendly, she never was. Probably because she's in an industry where almost everyone is exploiters and selfish that it becomes hard for her to befriend and trust someone."In deep thoughts eh?"Celestine shook her head.He spoke again. "What are you thinking huh?"Celestine blinked her heavy eyes and yawned. Her swollen eyes make her sleepy but she's trying her best to not fall asleep. After waking up from a dream that she reckoned w
