Chapter Nine

They don’t get dressed right away. Susan walks around the house like she has lived there forever. Getting ice out of the freezer, getting glasses and filling them with ice before adding the water and bringing it back into the living room.

“Thank you,” Hailey tells her, feeling parched and drinking down half the glass, feeling the water drip off the glass on the side and it touches her breast she gasps at the coldness and the two of them laugh.

“I didn’t realize how thirsty I was,” Hailey tells her, wiping her mouth with the back of her hand.

“So, you make a lot of money to take care of this house?” Susan asks, looking around the living room.

“Not all of it. I work two jobs. One for the clients and I have a boss of my own. One that I can afford to quit, but things would be tight.” Hailey nods her head.

“You’re a self-motivated person,” Susan tells her, sitting down in the leather chair and putting her glass on the stand.

“Yes, you have to be in my line of work,” Hailey tells her, giving her the professional tone and clearing her throat.

“I see that I guess at the club it’s the same way.” Susan shrugs her shoulders.

“That’s a good quality to have though, a lot of self-motivation will get you to where you need to be most times. It depends on where you want to go.” Hailey tells her, grinning at her.

“That’s true. Very true.” Susan looks around the room.

“What’s the matter?” Hailey asks her.

“Nothing, I just can’t believe all this is happening. I mean if you hadn’t come into the club, I wouldn’t be here right now. I would suit up for another night. Strange things happen. Like I prayed for this every night, to be someone. Be someone.” Susan looks at her.

“I understand where you’re coming from. I do. For the longest time, I thought that my work wouldn’t take off. I didn’t think that I would be this publicist that I wanted to be. I didn’t think it would get off the ground. I continued to work for it, toward it and I wouldn’t let anyone get in my way.” Hailey looks at her and Susan can see the pride that she has, seeing it happen again only for a different person.

“You’re enjoying this.” Susan smiles at her.

“I am, I can now see myself where you are. The looks that I didn’t see in the mirror. The way people saw me as I’m seeing you. There are going to be a lot of strange looks, prideful looks.” Hailey explains to her.

“Why would you help me? I’m a stranger to you.” Susan gets up.

“There’s something in you. When I saw you sitting at the bar, I knew that you didn’t want to be there. It was a quick look that no one would get unless they were looking at you completely. It was nice to sit and talk with you. I mean when someone talks about their dreams, I want to help to bring them to life.
