Today, Baymard was once again immersed in excitement.... as people walked around the streets happily.

"Do you think that they really did it?

I mean.... how can they be able to capture portraits just like that?"

"Bro... from the news, it's called pictures instead."

"Hmhm... it's true!

Even the Baymardian dictionary differentiates the two.

Apparently, portraits are sketched or painted..... and pictures are what are produced by cameras instead.

It looks like when his majesty was making the dictionary, he really took these future designs into perspective."

"Hmhm... And also, even though you can take photos in Landscape or portrait sizes... These portrait sizes actually have nothing to do with actual painted portraits."

"Aye, did anyone get the news about our I.Ds?"

"News?.... what news?!!"

"Well, we have just 3 months to change our I.Ds.

You see this empty space on your I.D card, apparently.... this is where they would place our pictures.

So we just need to go to the office and take a picture there, so that they can place it on our I.Ds later on."

"Eh?..... So do we submit our I.Ds then?"

"No.... not until the pictures are out.

Once they are out, the office will call us, and schedule an appointment to meet us.

And from there, they'll take about 10~30 minutes to place the picture on our I.D cards and seal it with a clear protective cover..... before finally giving it back to us again."

"Wait!... so we'll get it on that same day?"

"Hmhm.... that same day!!!"

"Ugh...Dude, this is not the time for one of your lectures.

So let's just forget about all of that, because I'm just too excited right now."

"Me too!

If I can get a wedding portrait of my wife and myself, then wouldn't that be great?

Hahahhahhahah..... when our 1-year-old son grows up, I'll be able to brag about how good looking his mother and I were."

"Ah!!!.... I can't wait to see this Camera thing!!!"

And so just like that, several people excitedly made their way towards the different photography studios around Baymard.

Some were in the mall, while others were independent buildings within some of the districts.

Of course most businesses that involved individuals having company I.Ds, also had their own personal cathode cameras as well.

With pictures now coming into effect, it was now time for everyone to change I.D cards.

In short, everyone wanted to see this camera thing and were completely thrilled about today's launch.

.

"Ahh.... if you don't hurry now, we are Hong to be late!!!"

"I'm coming..... I'm coming... I'm coming!"

"That's what you said 20 minutes ago."

"Well, they say that this thing can capture live images... so of course I have to look my best.

Do you think that it's easy to do makeup?

Please!

I have to look like a goddess in those pictures okay?"

'Din! Din! Din! Din! Din! Din!'

A young girl was currently making her way towards the living room in her best attire.

She lived in a double room apartment with her best friend, who was currently waiting for her in annoyance.

"Jane!.... why are you always making me late for every occasion?"

"Well, that's because you love me!"

"Fine! Fine! Fine! Fine! Fine!

I love you!... so can we go now your highness."

"Of course, lead the way my trusted assistant."

"Sigh... I only blame myself for always waiting for you every time.

It's really unbelievable that after all this dressing up and makeup... you would still need to take a bus to the Photo Studio."

'Bam!'

With that, both ladies hurriedly made their way towards District D.

And apart from Jane, several other people were also dressed up as well.

Today, they would definitely take the best pictures that they could.

'Vrrrrmmmmmmm!!!'

'Bing!'

The bus' door opened up, and out came a swarm of people rushing out delightedly.

The duo also left the bus as well and followed the crowd towards a massive building close to the Art gallery.

"Dammit!

This is all your fault.

I told you to hurry up, didn't I?

Now, look at the crazy line-up just at the entrance of the building." Gila said helplessly.

"Hey.... why cry over something that has already happened?

Like his majesty always said, that's just 'spilled milk'.

And you know, his majesty is always right.

It's just spilled milk!"

("^")

The duo continues conversing with one another while waiting in line for their turn.

And soon, the moment that they had been waiting for.... was finally upon them.

.

"Good morning!"

"Good morning!"

"Good morning!"

As the duo entered, they were immediately greeted by the staff warmly.

Of course they were told about picture sizes, as well as every little detail needed for them to make the right choices... since passport-sized photos were different from regular photos and so on.

They were also told about portrait and landscape sizes as well.

In short, they went through a brief orientation before actually taking their pictures.

"Miss Jane... Miss Gila.... you both want some sort of family/casual pictures, that showcase your friendship right?"

"Exactly Mr. Photographer!" Jane said excitedly.

"Alright... we'll do just that.

Now, I need you all to stand in front of this backdrop here.

And since you're fairly new to this, I'll direct you all on how to pose as well.

Okay men.... get the lights ready."

As the photographer spoke, several men ran around the room busily..... and all of this made the duo both excited and nervous at the same time.

Seeing all eyes on them, they both felt like the whole world was watching them as if they were some sort of important personnel.

Jane felt goosebumps all over her body, as she tried to pose alongside Gila.

"Yes....yes.... that was great!

Now tilt your head slightly to the left, but keep your eyes focused on me instead.

Yes... Darling, out your hands on your hips just like that, and give me a fierce look.

Yes... I love how you're using your hands there.

Beautiful!

Turn sideways and face each other just like that.

Yes...yes.....yes.... perfect!

Pose baby... Pose!!!

Ahhh!.... I can't take it anymore!

You both are just naturals!!!"
