As we arrived at the location, us holding each other as if it was the only comfortable thing in the world, I noticed that most of the cast weren't there. I didn't bother to ask, because I was too tired. I saw Rajwan walking towards us.
"I'm sorry, Adelle, I really tried."
His voice was choked, as if he was on the edge of tears when he hugged me. I rubbed his back gently, hugging him back.
"It's okay. It's not your fault."
I said as we let go. I didn't want to talk to him now, not that I hate him after what happened, but I was exhausted. And I knew we should've headed home.When he left, I looked at Barron, who was looking back at me, and we sat on a bench. I then cuddled into his embrace, trying to think of something to do.
A few long minutes has passed, and I saw Pamela walking towards me.
"Adelle ? We need to talk."
I sighed as I let go of Barron, then looked up to her.
"We have an interview with Jimmy Fallon."Normally this is a good thing. But not now. Not today.
"We ?"
I asked exhaustingly.
"Yes. you, Hayden, Johnny, Autumn, Tenzing, Isabela, Matt and me."
She explained, counting the names on her fingers.
Barron glanced at me encouragingly, giving me a side smile."Okay. Sure, just let us get this over with."
I rolled my eyes as I spoke.
"Ok, tomorrow evening it is ?"
I nodded.
"Tomorrow evening."Pamela then walked away, and I sat back in my seat, embracing Barron's waist again.
"Tomorrow evening."
I repeated slowly as Barron gave my back a gentle rub.It's okay. I thought to myself. Tomorrow is going to be fine.
But tomorrow was not going to be fine. I knew it.Jimmy is a great presenter, but now that's the video is out, he's going to ask about it. It wasn't the time to explain everything either.
The Next Day :
06:00 P.M :I was still getting ready, trying on my dresses and everything.
I ended up wearing a floral dress with white matching tights and white high-heels.As I got out of the house, journalists and photographers took pictures of me and threw questions, mostly about my plans and the videos, but my bodyguards shielded me, and I entered the car without looking back.
Spoiled. I know. But I was already late and I was supposed to meet the others in the studio before the interview starts. So, there.
As the car moved, I kept thinking.
Should I tell the truth about Mars now ? I already promised an explanation. Today ? I didn't think so.I was so not ready.
When we all arrived at the studio, Pamela made us promise that we won't argue on the interview.
By we, she meant Matt.I didn't blame the lady though. It was our first time all together, so we couldn't argue -or fight- there. We had to keep it together.
However, at the interview, it was hard to know what to say.
But we got through it.Nearly.
To Be Continued..
