Nina, 14, had been on that plane for hours. Her legs were stiff. Her
back ached. She just wanted to get off that damn plane! She just laid
her head back and fell asleep.
After what seemed like twenty minutes but was actually three hours
(because she fell asleep), Nina awoke to the flight attendent telling
her the plane had landed and she was back in Rio. She got up, grabbed
her bags from the overhead compartment and left the plane.
As she left the terminal, she saw her two best friends, Tiffany, 16,
and Laylani, 15, waving to her.
"Hey!!!" Nina shouted as she greeted her friends with a hug.
"Hey girl!" Tiffany said as she hugged Nina.
"How was the shoot?" Laylani asked.
"Oh, man, not as bad as that flight." Nina retorted.
"Well it's good to have you back," Laylani said patting Nina's back.
"It's good to be back."
As Nina, Tiffany and Laylani drug Nina's bags to Tiffany's car, there
was silence. But once they got in the car and started driving that
changed.
"So, Nina, did you see any fine American boys while you were away?"
Tiffany asked.
"Oh no I was working. This is my job." Nina replied.
"Oh come on! Don't give me that! Laylani and I model too but we
always find time to go looking for some fun!" Tiffany laughed.
"Yeah Nina. You're telling us that you didn't meet ANYBODY?" Laylani
asked.
"Well...." Nina blushed.
Tiffany laughed, "I knew it! What was his name?"
"Trey."
"And what did he look like?"
"Oh my god! He was gorgeous. He sings in a band and I saw him
perform. He looked sooo good on stage."
"I bet. Guys who are in bands are SOOO hot!" Laylani said.
The girls talked for awhile longer until they got to their loft that
the modeling agency put them in. It was so nice. No parent
supervision. Very little supervision from the people who ran the
agencies.
When they got to the loft and everything as unpacked. Nina, Tiffany,
and Laylani sat down. Tiffany got this look in her eye that Nina had
never seen before. She placed her hand on Nina's knee.
"You know, Laylani and I, we missed you," Tiffany said.
