Present
“What do you mean my appearance is canceled?”
My manager, Kris, stands beside me with a clipboard in
hand and AirPods nestled into her ears. Her fingers type rapidly on the
phone while her lips press together into a white slash. I cross my arms,
impatiently waiting for an answer as the anger brews on the cusp of
unleashing on everyone inside this very room.
Slowly, she lifts her gaze to the mirror to meet mine. “Courtney Rae is
the new face for the event tonight.”
Upon my reflection in the mirror, my eyes widen with a cold stare. The
vein on my forehead comes out of nowhere, prompting my makeup artist,
Jonathan, to step away with fear.
My hands fall onto the dresser in front of me as I close my eyes, willing
to control the anger bubbling to the surface. This event was planned a year
ago, and it was no backyard job. Hosting the biggest party in Miami on
New Year’s Eve will launch my business to the next level. Over fifty
thousand people are attending the concert, big-name musicians performing,
and endorsements were thrown at me to help promote. Everything I wear
tonight, down to the blush on my cheeks, was strategically planned to
advertise on my social media accounts.
This is how I’ve become a self-made millionaire, and now what? I’m
replaced with only five hours’ notice? As the seconds pass, the animosity
buries deeper within, and any rational thoughts are buried under the
blinding rage consuming me.
I stand up in a rush, accidentally knocking a bottle of foundation onto
the ground. With my hands on my hips, I glare at the team in front of me.
“I was booked a year ago. There’s a contract in place for me to host
tonight’s event. Give me one reason why Courtney Rae is suddenly
replacing me?”
Kris bows her head, shuffling her feet nervously. “She is… how should
I say it, younger, but—”
“I’m aware she is nineteen,” I cut Kris off, momentarily beyond words.
“What does that have to do with anything?”
“They want a young face for their social content,” Kris adds.
“I’m twenty-fucking-five!” My voice bounces against the walls, causing
it to sound louder in the small room. “I’m not past my goddamn prime.”
Kris raises her hands to try and calm me down. “I understand, but, Ava,
they want to draw in the younger demographic. Courtney has close to a
hundred million followers and is not afraid to remove her clothing. You
know how it is.”
Of course, I know how it works. The more skin you expose, the more
money is thrown your way, and therefore, the more followers you gain. I
refuse to become that woman. My brand was built on me as a person, and it
didn’t involve scandalous shots compromising my integrity. Sure, I may
post a few bikini shots in summer, but it’s always done tastefully. If it
weren’t, I’d have my father to answer to, and he is ruthless when it comes
to business, especially when his daughter is involved.
