"I'm on my way mom, I'm almost there," I reply in a hurry, before hanging up in frustration.

I've been driving for almost two hours just to finally meet the man my mom hasn't stopped talking about and according to her, he's the co-judge for Eliana Guitarra's fashion challenge which makes him the second in command after Eliana and apparently a good friend of my mother.

"Fabian, do you have any idea why the director asked for us?" I ask nervously, hoping that my recent sketch had maybe gotten to him and he approved them or at least some good news.

"So you don't even know?" He asks, making me wonder what exactly I needed to know.
