Delicate

Prolouge

I walked into the studio with my camera strapped to my neck and my portfolio in hand. My brown wavy hair put into a high ponytail swayed with each step I took.

"Hello Ms. Calder" said the secretary at the front desk. "Hello Sarah. And what have I said about calling me Ms? Just call me El" a sweet smile found it's way to my lips as she mumbled and apology.

"You don't have clients today. Why are you here Ms Calder?"

I rolled my eyes internally at her. "I may not, but still own the place so I need no reason to be in my studio" gave her a smile before heading to the back of the studio where my office is located.
It's not a big building, just a two story, to second floor used manly for storage and meetings. The main floor was a big open space with a desk in the middle. Right behind the desk is hallway that goes to the offices and break room. My office being directly in the back.

It's a small business but it's mine and I'm proud to be the owner of "Calders Cameras" my dad came up with the name and I can never say no.

I sat in my chair and opened up my laptop scrolling through emails, answering a few of them if they seemed urgent enough.

About ten minutes pass before I hear a knock on door. "Come in" I say still looking at my laptop reviewing some pictures that I need to send upload to my website.

"There's a girl here to see you" said Sarah poking her head into the door. I look up at her giving her a confused look. "Who? I have no appointments today"

"She told me not to say" I look back down at my laptop for a few seconds before Sarah spoke up again "shall I ask her to leave?" "No, no send her in"

And with that I heard the door close and I was left to wonder. I stared at the pictures of two roses, one white the other a bright vibrant red.

"Hello Elle"

My head snapped up at the sound of that voice. My eyes grew three sizes larger. There's only one person who as ever called me that. And as my eyes locked with her blue seas. My mind caved in as all the memories flooded it. If she was still talking I'd have no clue; and if I was then I'd be fucked.
