108. Restroom affair

108.

Vera's POV.

Yup! It's the D-day.

Today's 'Tell With Your Body' show and as I step into Days Dreams, I see everywhere teeming with population. The models that had been on a leave of absence are all here.

All the walkways and practice rooms are filled with dins of conversation and laughter.

The decorators are busy in the ballroom, adorning everywhere with flowers, ribbons, and whatever else that could make the place bright and beautiful.

Bruce stood by Deen's side as he dished instructions on where he wanted each of the tables and chairs.

In the center of the ballroom stood the stage where the models would parade on with each designer's dresses.

I feel the ripple of tension and it takes me a while to realize it's coming from me.

Be calm, I tell my beating heart and take in a breath. After I regain my peace, I reach over the table and grab my steaming cup of latte.

I take a slug and wet my dry throat with the latte.

Then I focus back on my cellphone, chatting with Sage.
