Having people recognize me while I am out isn't new to me. I have experienced it a couple of times but it wasn't as often as the ones that the celebrities get. In this country, models have a smaller number of supporters than celebrities or actresses. In my own perspective, I like it better than I could still go around and not be bombarded with the paparazzi. Somehow, I can still live a normal life just like the others. I am not complaining about the fans asking to have pictures with me; I even love it when they do. It makes my heart full of happiness and contentment knowing that I am appreciated.
The woman thanked me a couple of times for letting me take photos with her. She was a fan; I was sure of that. She even told me that she bought a lot of magazines with me on the cover page. I was grateful for things like this; where my work is being appreciated by the people around me. It makes me feel loved and useful especially when they say that they like how I dressed up and I make them inspired in terms of their fashion sense. I believe that every woman shouldn't be afraid to show their real self and they should dress the way they wanted to without being judged by the people around her. I would love for women to be confident and feel beautiful in whatever they wear. That I think is one of the reasons why I really love doing fashion magazine photoshoots. It makes me feel like I can touch lives and inspire people in the best way possible. She said goodbye and hugged me right before she left and I thanked her a couple of times too. In the industry where I worked, the fans are the core of my success because, without them, I wouldn't be where I am or I couldn't have achieved what I have without their support. I watched as she leaves happily and went out of the resto.
I turned to Wade and saw that he was looking at me. I wonder what he's thinking right now. I know that he didn't really like the idea of me getting back into modeling but he just kept it to himself.
"I'm sorry about that," I said when the woman left. I was sorry that our dinner was disturbed because of a fan of mine. I didn't mind about her though it's just that I didn't want him to feel uncomfortable.
"No, it's totally fine," He said with a smile as he guided me back to my seat. "I'm even more proud of you."
"Proud of me?" I said. "What do you mean?"
"Yes, people recognizing you just means that you're famous and that they appreciate the work that you do." He said. "And I'm proud of you for achieving that success."
"Thank you," I said genuinely.
"You're welcome," He said. "Here, eat some more."
I nodded. We continued silently with our dinner and enjoyed their delicious foods.

"I'm done," I said when I finished everything on my plate. "This is one of the best steaks in town, I guess."
"Yeah, I must agree with you," He said. "Shall I pay now?"
"Wait," I said. "Aren't we going to talk here?"
"No," He said. "I found a nice spot and I want you to see it too. We can talk there."
"Oh, alright," I said.
He held his hand up and called for the waiter.
"Yes sir? Do you need anything else?" The waiter said.
"Yeah," He said as he handed him his card. "I'll pay for our bill."
"Alright sir," He said and took Wade's card and hurriedly went to their cashier station.
"What is this place you're taking me?" I said.
"It's just a beautiful spot that is good for calm talks and serene nights; I'm sure you'll love it." He said.
"Well, let's see," I said.
"Excuse me, sir," The waiter came back and handed the card back. "Here's your card. Thank you for dining with us. We hope to see you soon."
Wade and I nodded as we stood. "We'll surely visit again," I said before I turned my back on the waiter and walked to the exit. Wade was trailing behind me. I saw how the women in the resto turned their eyes on Wade every time they see him pass by. I know what they might be thinking; that I am lucky to have a handsome billionaire as my husband. Sorry to disappoint you girls, there's nothing lucky in my situation right now; if only you knew.
I stopped outside the resto and waited for Wade. I don't where he's taking me so I assumed that he would take the lead but after a few seconds of waiting, there was still no sign of him. I turned around to look for him and saw that he was still inside the resto and was talking to someone. He was talking to a woman! His back was facing me so I couldn't see his expression clearly but I have a good vision of who he's talking to. Who the hell is that woman? I looked at her from head to toe and she looked like a Goddess. She could even pass as a model or even an actress with her personal features and her charismatic aura that could enchant both men and women. Even the way she smiles and talks is very sophisticated and that it shows what kind of a woman she is and how she carries herself screams a fortune. Even her slightly chinita eyes were so expressive that you could see them spark every time she laughs. She also has a perfectly shaped nose and thin lips and she also has fair white skin. She is a perfect woman that every man might be dreaming of. I don't really see anything wrong with her aside from the fact that she's talking to my husband while slightly tapping off his arms and the worst thing was that Wade even allowed her to do that. Is she his new toy fling? I bet he was even smiling at her from ear to ear as he enjoys talking to him. Did he forget that I was just here outside waiting for him? Urgh! This is nonsense! I can't take this anymore. We haven't even talked yet and there he goes around flirting with other women. What the hell is wrong with this man? Here I am thinking that he really is in love with me while he goes around flirting with other girls knowing that I was just here. Or maybe he completely forgets about me since she met a gorgeous woman that caught his eye. What an ass!
