Weeks had passed since her audition. She had been to callbacks, competing head to head with people she thought were better than her. She figured she had done okay, Jude told her so. But she just wanted to be better.
She was back in her New York apartment now, since she had left the day after her argument with her dad.
Now she was on FaceTime with Jude, which had become her daily routine. If they weren't on the phone with each other, he'd be texting her as much as he could. In between training, before and after matches. Even when he was out with his friends or family, he'd put Nevaeh first everytime.
"Wait, Jude," she paused, staring at the notification that had just appeared. It was an email. She clicked on it, reading through it. Not processing what it said the first time, she read it again. "Oh my gosh."
"What?" he asked her from the other line. He was getting ready for training while he talked to her.
"I got the role!" she exclaimed, jumping out of her bed and screaming. He started shouting and cheering for her, genuinely proud of her. He loved seeing her happy, even if it was over something little or as big as this.
"I'm so happy for you," he showed off his smile. She wondered if he had given this treatment to other women. "When do you start shooting?"
"A month," Vaeh told him.
"Did you get the final girl?"
"Yeah, I'm breaking stereotypes," she joked, making him laugh.
"Alright, we'll I've gotta go to training," he sighed. "Again, I'm proud of you. And I'll text you once I'm done."
They told each other goodbye, ending the call.
