It's not like it was a random, one-of-a-kind, Ayu-only thing like Leslie made it out to be. It's actually part of Leslie's "SUPER" series and he was selling them, even though they were limited. Ayu probably realized this and that's when things went downhill. It's stupid to think Leslie and Ayu's relationship wasn't strained either, but in the end, he was just doing his job as a photographer regardless of Mannie's intentions, and Ayu probably came to this conclusion as well.

Yeah, I agree, Ithink it's probably something like that.
Let's face it, Ayu probably didn't mind the content of the pics because she obviously have seen him naked many times before and it was a Leslie photobook... But it was very strange how his photobook was for sale and had more copies than Ayu's photobook that was never for sale.
