Tom Longo and his daughter

Fernanda sat in the interviewer's office. "Fernanda, from your photos, I would say your future with Hironaga is very promising!" the Hironaga Studios interviewer, Matthew Susuki, said. He was middle-aged, bald, spoke perfect English, and was obviously taken by the long tanned legs of the very tall slender young beauty seated across from him. Her long hair was dusky-brown, and she was obviously embarrassed. "The test photos we just took of you came out very well!" he exclaimed, showing them the prints. They showed Fernanda's naked well-curved body, with small, but firm pointed breasts, large erect nipples, and a genuine look of fear in her face! Very good! Fear is beautiful in her, the interviewer mused. "But have you ever done this sort of thing?" he asked. "Of course not!" Tom replied for his daughter. A well-preserved man in his early fifties, Tom Longo had found the ad in the newspapers. Times were bad. He and Fernanda were jobless, and hurting for money.

Fernanda was a very shy 21-year-old who looked much younger. She was unsure of herself, especially after finding her mother hanging dead in the basement three years earlier. She was surprised when her father had told her about the offer. "Is that what you want me to do, Dad?" she asked, looking at the floor. It was difficult for Fernanda to look anyone in the eye. "We need to make money," he replied sternly. "Nothing else has worked for you! You have a certain look about you that lends itself to this sort of thing! Innocent, vulnerable... !" She knew that her father had seen the interviewer once before, " just to find out about this company," he told her. "You're not tied down to a boyfriend, and they'll pay my expenses so I can look after you in Japan. I'll find something to do there, and it will be a fresh new start for both of us!"

The interviewer shook hands with Tom, and gave Fernanda a congratulatory hug. "See you next week at Kennedy!" he said. "I'll be flying with you!" Susuki then watched Tom hug Fernanda, noting the strange look in her beautiful dark eyes. Was it sadness? Fear? Discomfort at being hugged by her father? But, Susuki's primary concern was his bonus, which not only was fat, but would include him in some very exciting scenarios with her!

Hironaga Studios, Hiroshima, Japan, May 1. 11 a.m.

"Are you nervous, princess?" Tom asked, as they waited in the visitor lounge. Fernanda had been given a tight white blouse and short black skirt to wear, with sheer nylons and high heels. She looked nervous, which made her appear to Tom as even more desirable. "They haven't even told me what my first take is going to be all about!" she complained. "I hope you won't be watching, Daddy." "Of course not, darling, but I'll be in the lounge, in case you need me! Remember, your daddy will always be here for you." They were alone, with just a huge TV screen blaring Japanese commercials, and he took her in his arms. She felt his hardness in her crotch. It had happened so many times before, and it always made her uncomfortable. "You are such a damned beautiful young woman now!" he said, and they came to get her for her first scene.
