[In the Shadows of Love] ~ Pedri.Gonzalez

Chapter 4

Back at home, Emily and Bella settled on the couch, the interview still fresh in their minds. Bella couldn't hold back her curiosity.

"So, what was all that about Pedri stalking your fan account?" Bella asked, raising an eyebrow.

Emily sighed, a mix of amusement and confusion on her face. "It was so unexpected! Jimmy brought it up out of nowhere. Apparently, Pedri viewed my TikTok fan page, and fans noticed. They started saying he's stalking me."

Bella's eyes widened. "No way! How did you react?"

Emily shrugged. "I was just as surprised as everyone else. I didn't know what to think, but I played it cool."

Bella laughed. "Well, it looks like Pedri might be more interested in you than you thought!"

"Well, maybe," Emily said with a small smile. "But here's the thing—I've got an interview tomorrow to be a digital creator for FCB. I might have to see him every day. It's going to be so awkward after everything that happened with his fans."

Bella grinned. "Talk about a plot twist! You'll handle it like a pro, though."

Emily nodded. "I hope so. We'll see what happens."

The next morning, Emily woke up with excitement and nerves. Over breakfast, Bella reassured her, "You'll do great today."

"Thanks," Emily replied, trying to stay calm.

After eating, Bella drove her to the FCB headquarters. As they arrived, Bella turned to her, "Remember, you're amazing. Just be yourself."

Emily smiled, taking a deep breath. "Thanks, Bella. I needed that."

With renewed confidence, she stepped out of the car and walked towards the entrance. This was her moment.

Emily's outfit:

Emily entered FCB headquarters, her heart pounding. A friendly receptionist directed her to the interview room.

The interview went well, and the head of the panel smiled, "Welcome to the team, Emily."

Thrilled, Emily exited and met Sarah, the team photographer.
