The sun was already high, but Clarissa was still struggling spoiled with pillows. He felt lazy to do his job today.

"Yuna," called out to her in a raucous voice.

"Yes," he said.

"What's my schedule today?"

"The photo shoot at Arta Fashion" Yuna replied.

"What time?" ask again.

"At 10 am."

"Can I be pushed back?" begingly.

"Rissa, we can't resign the schedule" he replied. "Now you wake up, have breakfast and then we leave" he said.

Arta Fashion Building

At exactly 10 a.m., Clarissa and her team arrived at the shooting location. The assistant photographer approached him. "Miss, it looks like the shooting was pushed back" he said.

"Why be pushed back?" ask Clarissa.

"Mr Raka could not attend because she was sick again" he replied.

"So, how?" ask Clarissa again.

Hilman, who was on the scene, approached Clarissa and the photographer's assistant. "Why are you still here?"

"The male model is sick" Clarissa said.

"I will tell the President," Hilman left the location and walked into Devan's room.

He knocked on the door before entering. "Excuse me, Master!"

"What's wrong?" tanyanya is playing her phone.

"Shooting can't be done today" replied Hilman.

Devan directed his gaze at Hilman, "Why?"

"The male model is sick again" he replied.

"Stay looking for a replacement" Devan said casually.

"But, Mister. It's not that easy to find a model" Hilman said.

"You can call the artist management," he said again focused on playing his phone.

"Master, you can't!" hilman said in a slightly loud voice.

Devan turned his head and stared intently at his secretary.

"Sorry, Master!" hilman said softly and lowered his gaze.

"Snooch away!" said again.

"Miss Clarissa doesn't want to, her schedule is very tight" Hilman explained.

"Why just say now, if the male model is sick again?" Devan stood up and tidied up his clothes.

"I just got the information" replied Hilman.

"I'll talk to Clarissa" Devan said, exiting the room to the shooting studio.

Devan approached Clarissa who was sitting on the artist's bench. The woman raised her head and stood up.

"The shooting schedule will be postponed" he said.

"No way, it's obviously hurting me" Clarissa said.

"If you want to wait, we'll find a replacement model" Devan said.

"Well, I'll wait an hour!"

"Mahilman!" call Devan.

The secretary approached him, "Yes!"

"Contact artist management, right now. You have to bring in that model before eleven!" devan's orders.

"Master, there's no way we're bringing in such a sudden model" Hilman tried to reason.

"I don't care!" Devan left the studio.

Clarissa sat back down and read the magazine.

An hour later, the replacement model had not yet arrived. Yuna as Clarissa's manager comes to Hilman at her desk. "Sir, it's been an hour. So not the picture?"

"Hmm, Miss. The model we haven't got, they can't take it all of a sudden like this" Hilman said.

"Clarissa still does not want to, if the shooting is delayed," Yuna said again.

"I will tell the President" he said. Hilman goes to Devan's room and tells him the truth. This made the man angry and disappointed with the performance of his employees.

Devan walked out with quick steps towards the studio. Hilman who knew, the President was angry immediately told the people around Devan and Clarissa away. They understand too.

"Why did you refuse the schedule?" devan asked, looking at the woman in front of him.

"Don't you know what my reasons are, sir?"

"No more choice, shooting must be postponed!" devan said firmly.

"Then you have to compensate because my time is wasted" Clarissa said.

Devan tightened his jaw and stared at the growled Clarissa who was challenging him.

"How, Master?" Clarissa raised her hand and was about to face Devan but quickly the man retreated his steps.

"I don't want to!" reject it.

"What if you were the replacement model?" clarissa. "The face you have is quite handsome" he said with a flirtatious smile.

"I don't want to either" said Devan.

"Come, Master. Let this ad go live immediately" please Clarissa.

"I don't want to" she refused again.

"Then you have to pay my compensation today" Clarissa said.

Without answering, Devan passed away leaving the studio. Hilman followed his boss's steps. While the others enter the studio and wonder at Clarissa.

Inside the work room, Hilman stood up while watching the President walk back and forth while holding his head.

"Are all women stubborn?" ask her to Hilman.

"Sa. I don't know, sir!" answers staggered.

"Didn't you have a sister or lover?" tanyakanya.

"I have a lover, Sir!" the answer.

"Is he stubborn?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Clarissa is very stubborn" he said.

Hilman was silent and confused about what else to say.

"He asked me to be a replacement model" Devan said, leaving Hilman shocked and in disbelief. "If he doesn't want to, he demands compensation" he said again.

"In my opinion, you must want to be a replacement model for this ad to be completed soon," Hilman ventured to provide input.

"What!"

"That's up to you, sir" said Hilman.

"Immediately transfer the money to Clarissa's account of thirty million, now!" the question is with Hilman.

"Good, Master!" He also left.

Meanwhile in the studio some people are still waiting for the President's decision.

"We've been here for three hours but we haven't made a decision at all" Tina said.

Shortly after Clarissa's phone rang, she opened it and smiled at the message.

Two minutes later Hilman came into the studio and said the photo shoot was postponed.

"Did Miss Clarissa agree?" ask Vani.

"I agree" he answered.

Everyone finally breathed. They disbanded and cleaned up the equipment and photo equipment.

"Why didn't you just say that you agreed to the photo shoot back?" yuna asked, but Clarissa would not answer.

"It turns out that the President was not smart enough" Clarissa said in the car on the way home.

"meaning?" ask Yuna.

"I asked for compensation from him and he sent the money directly" Clarissa replied.

"What trick did you do until he wanted to transfer the money?" tina asked curiously.

"I asked her to be a replacement model" Clarissa replied laughing.

"You're really brave, Rissa!" yuna said unexpectedly.

"So she turned it down and sent you some money" Tina guessed.

"Yes, that's right!" said it.

"I'm afraid you're getting entangled in him, our contract is only two months old" Yuna explained.

"It's in return because he cut my honor by twenty percent" Clarissa said.

"That's all your fault" Tina chirped.

Meanwhile, Rey is in her room, hearing the news that the photo shoot has been postponed. He asked Vani why. However, Devan's employees only explained the sick man's model and Clarissa's initial rejection that did not want to be delayed and finally accepted the resignation of the day.

"Why am I not the only one who's the replacement model?" he muttered while smiling.
