"I've said too much, in and out of wanting us."
I sat in yet another meeting after I had told April I wanted a break but clearly she didn't listen to anything I had to say. My head was rested in my hand as I look out of the big window watching the clouds slowly go by thinking about what Billie could possibly be doing right now.
Soon I feel a kick connect with my ankle as I jump up in my seat looking at April with an angered look. She can be so fucking childish sometimes.
"I'm sorry could you repeat what you said one more time if you could?" I fix my sitting position now giving everyone in the room my undivided attention. "We were going to give you an offer to fly out to L.A later next month and audition for Victoria Secret and have an opportunity to be in their next fashion show."
The mention of Victoria Secret made me perk up like a dog. I've always wanted to model for them for as long as I can remember and now I'm getting the chance to. "If you do get chosen at the casting call, two months after you'd be flown out to Paris where the show would be."
"W-when would all of this be starting?" I was now starting to shake with excitement and could hardly contain myself. "Well if you were to take the offer now it would be the end of next month, but if you need time to-"
"No I don't need time to think about it. I'll take the offer." All the execs in the room thank me for taking the offer and let me know they'll email me the rest of the information later today. We finish the meeting and as I'm packing up my things I can feel April burning holes into me with her eyes.
"Imani you have the campaign for Versace next month. You shouldn't have taken that offer." I softly close my laptop and take a deep breath with my eyes closed before looking at her and speaking.
"You and me both know I've wanted this for a very, very long time. If Versace wants me that bad they can find a way to work around it. I get that you are practically my manager but you are not about to stop me from chasing my dreams."
She goes to speak but I cut her off now becoming angry. "By the end of next month I'm getting on a plane and going to L.A for that casting call and if I get picked I'm going to Paris. That is it, that's final."
It was almost like she didn't want my career to grow anymore. All I used to talk about was modeling for Victoria Secret and now that I'm getting my chance she couldn't even pretend to be happy for me.
We make it home and April just drops me off and leaves again. I didn't care where she went at this point I honestly wanted to be left alone now. Her actions practically ruined my whole day. I go into the kitchen and grab a bottle of white wine from the fridge.
