“I love this color,” my client, Simone, says with a happy sigh. “And the
material is like butter. But will I be able to clean it? I have kids.”
“You’ll be able to take the covers off the cushions and throw them in the
wash. Easy-peasy.”
My phone and watch vibrate at the same time. I sneak a peek at my watch
and scowl.
Danny, my coworker, has been texting me all day, but I’m in the field
with clients, and he knows it.
He’ll have to wait.
“Well, that’ll be a lifesaver,” Simone says. “Yes, on this. Absolutely.
That sectional is going to be the bomb.”
“You’ll never want to leave your sofa,” I agree and reach for some
wallpaper swatches. “Now, let’s talk about your pantry.”
“I love talking about my pantry.”
I laugh as I turn the pages in my swatch book. “You and me both, sister.
Okay, I was thinking this one for the wall opposite the cabinets.”
For the next hour, Simone and I finalize the plans for her remodel, and I
carry an armload of sample books and tiles out to my SUV.
“Thank you!” Simone calls out from her porch. “I don’t know what I’d do
without you.”
“You’re more than welcome. I’ll be in touch!”
Simone waves, already tapping on her phone as she walks back inside.
Before I leave, I check my messages.

text, letting him know I’ll be in the office late this afternoon, then pull away
from the curb to head to my next appointment.
I’ve been an interior designer in Seattle for almost five years, and I’m
completely in love with my job. Seeing clients like Simone light up with
excitement over their project, whether it’s redecorating one room or building
a new house, is the best feeling in the world.
Not all my clients are as easygoing and excited as Simone, though. Some
are like my next client, who doesn’t want to participate in the design at all
and is very hard to read. I’ve talked with her assistant more than I’ve spoken
with her. But the end result is always worth the hassle of the few grouchy and
difficult clients I have.
Several hours and two appointments later, I walk through the showroom
of Emerald Interiors and smile at customers and colleagues as I make my way
back to my office.
I’ve just set my Starbucks cup on my desk and fired up my laptop when
Danny comes rushing into my office. He closes the door behind him and
holds his phone in the air, his future husband staring at me through the
screen.
“Uh, hello there,” I say with a frown. “What’s up, guys?”
“Only a major catastrophe,” Danny says and sits on the edge of the
yellow chair across from me. “You remember last month when we went to
Vegas for my bachelorette party?”
“Well, I remember most of it,” I reply with a laugh, but my smile falls
away when neither Danny nor Brandon laughs with me. “Yes, I remember
the trip.”
“And do you further remember when we thought it would be absolutely
