"I'll make sure there will be absolutely no photographers around then."
After confirming the plans with my mother, I start emailing my PR about these photographs that are already online. It's annoying, but I don't mind if they take pictures of me, however, I don't want Chris face plastered all over the internet and magazines. I'm hoping for at least a little curtesy and respect when it comes to him since He's is so little.
As I look through the photos my PR found, to confirm if I want them removed, they suggest I allow some to stay online so that this doesn't happen again. Well, fuck that! I want them all gone.
Since Mani is sitting right next to me, she leans over to look through the photos with me. It looks like most were taken from camera phones, no professional paps were at the zoo until these photos where posted online. There are only a few; most are of the three of us, but there are a couple with Tia, too. And I was right, she looks like some crazed stalker who was following us.
We make it a mile away from the zoo before my phone goes off.
"Hansen ." I snap, only answering it because it could be about what just happened.
"Dinah!" Tia wails. "Where are you?! Did you leave me here?"
Shit.
"No." I lie. "I'm taking Mani and Chris home, I'll find you at the zoo gift shop when I get back."
"What?! Dinah -"
I end the call and give Mani a guilty smile.
"That was Tia."
"Oh my gosh!" Mani gasps. "I forgot all about her."
I laugh because so did I.
