Lazy loading puts in a proxy class that will be replaced by the real class 
once it is needed. Thus when your model is constructed, the related models 
do not need to be fetched, but the model is fully functional.

There is not much magic, besides the automatic replacement by the real 
object once try to access one of it properties or methods.
