CHAPTER ONEELENA’S POV“Alright everybody, that will be the final shot for today. Let's wrap it up, you know tomorrow's another day.” I said as I adjusted my camera and walked back to my duffel bag lying on the ground.My shoulders ached terribly as I packed up the last of my lighting equipment. Another overtime shoot wrapped at 9 PM, this was my seventh day in a row. The studio lights turned dim as my assistant turned it off, it left behind a familiar ringing in my ears while the faint smell of metal lingered in the air.I loved this job.

I was given an approval which came with a generous bonus and tight final deadline.

By the time I stepped out, it was past 11 PM and my body couldn't appreciate a good night’s rest any better. Still, a gentle sense of pride filled my chest. The campaign was finally complete.So I decided to treat myself to a baguette. They were my favourite and I hadn’t had one in forever. I walked down the street toward the shop.They were just about to close. I squirmed inwardly and rushed to buy one before they could pull up the sign and even got a bottle of white wine while at it.I thanked the lady and left. I wasn’t in any rush so I decided to walk home. The night air was cold but refreshing after being stuck indoors all day. London’s streets were mostly em
