The RuiVin Tale

Press Conference

Thanks for giving me some ideas to write this chap!

Sorry abt my writer's block. I haven't posted in almost a month! Oh no. Hope most of you are still awaiting my story

Chapter 16:

Elvin's POV

"Ding!" A whatsapp message came through my phone. Opening it, I saw that it was an invite to attend the press conference for the upcoming drama that was going to be aired next week. (The one me and Rui En filmed months ago). Since I had nothing on of course I agreed. Of course, I hoped my girl will go with me. Dialing her number, I waited for her to pick up.

"Hello! Missed me so fast already? We just saw each other 2 days ago..." Her voice came through the phone. "Do you know you are constantly on my mind that it drives me crazy without seeing you?" "Aiyoooo, so cheesy. My goosebumps are forming." I could picture her cringing and I laughed. "Okay, back to business. You heard about it(referring to press conference) right?" "Yeah. Min was asking if I was going cos I don't have anything on..." "So... Are you going?" I approached cautiously. This would be our very first press conference together and I am pretty sure the media will swarm us like crazy. But it'll be a meaningful milestone in our relationship and I was looking forward to walking with her hand in hand and whisper little things in her ear during the whole thing. "Hmmmm I am thinking about it...." She said and my heart sank a little. Maybe she was still afraid after all. "Just pulling your leg! Of course I must attend. I really love this production remember?" "It's not because of me?" I sound a little hurt. "Partly because of you too. I know you want me to be there." I smiled as brightly as the sun shining outside my window.

Press Conference day came quickly. We arrived early cos Rong had to style her and Sam had to do her make up and Calvin does her hair. I just sat aside flipping an old magazine left by the next table as I watch the "Dream Team" do wonders to her. A simple crimson red dress hugged her body and her long hair was permed at the ends and hung loosely over her shoulders. Simple makeup made her look natural yet fabulous and I'm proud to say she's my girl.

My outfit on the other hand was simple. A dark blue suit with a bow tie. My hair comb neatly to the back. We were ready. "Nervous?" I asked her when it was almost time. "No I am not." She replied but I could see her biting her lips yet not trying to remove any of the cherry red lipstick. I squeezed her hands "It'll be over soon. And I am here." I reassured her.

True enough, the media asked not only about the show but how me and En got together and our realtionship now. She tried her best to answer as vaguely as possible yet giving the media enough juicy stories. She's good. Lots of camera, flashes and requests for us posing together. I held her by the waist as we posed for the various papers and magazines. And finally, it's over!!!

"I am dead beat and starving," she whined after changing out and removing her makeup. "Lunch" "Outside is a no no." "I am cooking." I replied. "I wouldn't miss that for the world." "You are the best," and she gave me the sweetest smile that took away all the tiredness.
