It was unknown whether Hera's comforting embrace or Bernard's aggravating words were the ones working wonders, for Tiramisu looked a lot better after a while. Not only did it stop shivering, but it also jumped to the floor and began sniffing around the plane, as though it was exploring a brand new territory.
Bernard told Douglas to keep an eye on Tiramisu before taking Hera back to the bedroom. "You can take a few photos of me here for now."
Hera accepted the camera mutely. She began to tinker with the camera to find out how to use it.
The moment she raised her head, Bernard had already taken off his jacket and shirt, revealing his sculpted and scarred body.
Needless to say, Hera was rendered speechless.
Based on how quickly Bernard had stripped, it seemed that he was pretty used to stripping in front of others.
Hera lifted the camera and took a photo of Bernard to gauge her skills. After navigating to the album and selecting the photo, she glanced at it before quietly passing the camera to Bernard.
"Should the photo look like this?"
Bernard accepted the camera and looked at the photo. He was so stunned that he couldn't utter a word.
"Um… I guess that's a no?" Hera let out an awkward cough once she noticed how silent Bernard was. She knew the answer to her question, yet she still chose to ask it.
Hera rarely took photos, let alone selfies. It was only natural for her to be bad at taking photos.
Bernard was still stunned by the photo. There was a running joke on the Internet claiming that the photos taken by boyfriends often depicted their girlfriends from the worst angle. It turned out that Hera somehow possessed the same talent.
The only reason why the photo looked fine was all thanks to Bernard's gorgeous looks.
"You can take good photos after some practice," Bernard said comfortingly.
Hera didn't say anything in response.
"I'll teach you."
Bernard moved to stand next to Hera before swapping the camera back to the photo-taking mode. He pointed the camera at various objects in the room and began explaining the photo-taking techniques that were commonly used by photographers to her.
Hera practiced diligently the whole time. She'd take photos of Bernard from time to time in order to hone her skill.
Three hours later, the plane landed safely at Lumiville Airport. At that time, Hera was finally able to snap decent photos of Bernard.
