Genevieve
The day before…
‘I’m thrilled to introduce you to my brand-new range of storage
containers. Check out these beauties.’ Genevieve lifted a stack of
elegant storage boxes with pretty patterns and held them to the camera.
‘These boxes are not just any ordinary containers – they’re your new
kitchen best friends.’ With a flourish, she opened one of the boxes. ‘Now,
you know me and my love of all things sustainable…’
‘Oh my god.’ Genevieve cringed and put her head into her hands. Beside
her, her grandma chuckled and stopped the playback on her phone.
‘I can’t believe you follow me on social media.’ Genevieve turned back
to her grandma.
‘Of course I do. I follow all my grandchildren. I know everything “The
Vieve” gets up to.’
Heat stung Genevieve’s cheeks. She bared her soul on social media as
The Vieve – a single girl living her best life. Thousands of people were
watching, commenting, liking, hating, judging, but her grandma?
‘It’s just a bit of a surprise.’
‘Well, it shouldn’t be.’ Her grandma patted the cushion next to her on the
sofa and Genevieve’s French bulldog, Mitzi, jumped up beside her. ‘Good
girl.’ Grandma tickled her chin as she cooed. Mitzi wriggled onto the old
lady’s knee.
‘Are you sure she’s ok there? She’s quite heavy,’ Genevieve said.
Her grandmother stroked little Mitzi’s soft head. French bulldogs were
cute, but Mitzi exceptionally so. Of course Genevieve was extremely
biased. And after being on a waiting list for over two years to get her in the
first place, she was going to cherish every moment with her.
‘She’s fine where she is,’ her grandmother said. ‘Lovely and warm, in
fact, like a very cuddly hot water bottle.’ The old lady rested her elbow on
the sage green velour sofa arm. ‘Does this online stuff make money?’
‘Yes. I get sponsorships and freebies, sometimes partnership deals with
businesses. The Vieve has a lot of followers.’ She rested back on the sofa,
crossing her slender ankles.
Her grandma was in her late seventies and
though some of her furniture was dated, it was always pristine. Gleaming
photographs of her grandchildren shone from a wood and glass cabinet that
took up a large part of the wall. Genevieve’s face smiled back from the
frames, ranging from the earliest days when she was a bald baby with bright
rosy cheeks, through the school years with her long caramel-coloured hair
in various plaits and styles – her teeth in several stages of gappiness – right
up until now.
Now, she was social-media perfect, of course; it went with the
territory. The Vieve had a reputation to maintain. In most of the younger
pictures, she was with her older siblings. Even then Cressida and Rafe
looked more confident and able than her. She was the cute little sister who
had adorable dimples when she smiled, but nothing much else to say for
herself.
‘I don’t understand any of it,’ Grandma said. ‘Though I do enjoy
watching you. You have a lovely way of talking online. Your cooking films
are very good indeed and useful for me as a single woman.’ Grandma
winked and Genevieve giggled. Hopefully when she was that age, she’d
have the same spirit.
