      &quot;Wow, ma'am, that was awesome. You walked so gracefully and made every cloth you wore desirable.&quot; My new assistant, Ella said.
      Yes, assistant. I've an assistant. Brianna advised me to have one because according to her &quot;I might just be needing one since I'm a big woman now.&quot; Her words not mine.
      I recruited Ella last week. She is very smart, beautiful and to top it all, hilarious. She has also been of great help too. She helped me get my dress and the matching accessories ready. Generally, she made things easier for me.
      &quot;Thank you.&quot; I replied giving her a bright smile.
      Right now, I have just finished walking down the carpet with the final outfit.
      At the beginning of it all, I was nervous and excited but then my beloved family came through for me and keep cheering through the crowds. It gave me the morale I needed a

      &quot;Your performance that day was simply outstanding. The way you walked that day made me want to buy everything you wore.&quot; The man in front of me complimented, gaining a bright smile from me.
      Tonight has been nothing short of a beautiful one for me. Everyone has something good to say about our show as well as Brianna's clothing line.
      Everything has been going smoothly and successfully.
      &quot;You should definitely become a full time model. You'll be making it big that's for sure.&quot; He added with a smile and I thanked him.

      &quot;Xander Reynolds, her husband,&quot; Xander stated tightly, shaking the man's hand firmly while wrapping his arms around my waist in 

  I checked the rooms but I couldn't find him anywhere.
      Has he left me?
      No, he couldn't have decided to leave without me. I know him that much at least.
      I opened the main door and headed out. It was quite cold as I made my way to the garden. There he was, sitting on a bench chair sipping his black coffee. I went over and sat down beside him .
      For a moment there, neither of us said anything. There was silence -- a deafening silence.
      &quot;Coffee?&quot; He asked causing me to look up. I nodded and he handed me another cup of coffee. I smiled at him and he returned it causing my heart to flutter.
      &quot;You knew I was gonna come here?&quot; I asked , amused at the fact that he had a second cup.
      &quot;Just figured.&quot; He replied shrugging.

      I did it just how I already learnt it. I'm super grateful for
