The feeling he gave me made me scared but also happy that for once someone loved me for who I really am.

It only took Arden four days to get back to Eliza and do the other job for her, the talks she had with herself in the night made her realise that she overthinks every single thing she does in her life and she wants to stop doing that to herself. Arden wanted to change for the better, she wanted to start to love herself more and the only idea she had for that is to get back to Eliza and make her take other pictures of her for another client to be seen. She was sure she could do it.
Or that is what she thought until she was in front of Eliza her door and didn't know at that moment anymore how to open a door. Arden just stared at the door in front of her, she didn't know what else to do than stare at it and wish that at one time it would open by themselves.
"Arden here you are. I was so happy to get your call, I have this big client that wants to use his platform to show different woman of colour. I have been busy with it for a while now and it took us so long to decide on the brown skinned girl, so my good ass showed some pictures of you that I took and he wanted you and no one else. So this is a big thing for sure but no pressure on your shoulders, just be yourself." It had the different end at Arden, she was stressing out more than before. She didn't remember how to smile or even talk so she just nodded her head and followed Eliza to her usual place.
Eliza was a good friend of her sister, they met each other in college were Quincy always was Eliza her model for every single essay she had to do. After a few times she asked Arden to come and she had stayed coming till this very day. Eliza started to become her own friend, she knew everything about her since she spend a lot of time here, she has been here hours talking about her problems and listening to Eliza her advice to just get over it and do it because you only live once.
"I see something is bothering you and if it is this job than I want to tell you here that there is no need for that, if a client is that happy to have a model he is willing to do everything for your face to be on the product than he has made his mind up already. I am not kidding I had this one girl that didn't know how to smile and that guy just used pictures of her looking mad, the product sold good and he didn't mind it that some people were confused by the mad face. He just wanted her and I am sure that this client is the same, I am actually hundred percent sure of that." Arden had closed her eyes for Eliza to do her job but it didn't take a long time to be done, it had been the shortest conversation they had probably had in this chair.
Arden felt Eliza her hands at her shoulders making her look in the mirror seeing her hair the same way as usual and a bit more make-up on her face but she looked natural probably something she was not sure to see for a job. Whatever this guy asked her to do, she loved it since she could stay herself and didn't need to think out of the box at all. She was in her comfort zone enjoying the fact she could be herself to the camera.
