JOSIE
Charleston, SC, USA
I pulled a pillow over my head to block out the sound of an early alarm
beeping incessantly through the thin wall in our downtown Charleston
apartment. When the sound didn’t stop, I flung the pillow off my head and
blinked my eyes open. “Tabitha!” I huffed on a moan. “Why?”
There was no answer, but the clinks and bangs of antique pipes running
water to the shower down the hall in our only bathroom answered for her.
Tabs must have forgotten to turn off her alarm clock. It was a good thing I
was getting up early anyway. Today would be a turning point for me. I felt
for my phone and squinted at the screen. It was way earlier than I’d normally
get up, but there were two missed calls from my mother. She was as anxious
about my presentation today as I was, and she’d transferred that agitation to
me without even trying. No amount of “I got this, Ma,” could stop her
motherly worrying.
I padded through to our tiny kitchen and sighed with relief to see Tabs
had started the coffee before showering. I’d call my mother back as soon as I
could think straight.
The water in the shower turned off and while I poured coffee, there were
the sounds of makeup bag rummaging, and then the hairdryer. She must have
a fancy client meeting today. Something dropped, and she hissed a curse. I
poured a second cup and knocked on the door. “Seven a.m. wake up? Who’s
the client?”
The door opened and she poked her face out, brown skin shining and
vibrant. “Coffee? Josie, you goddess.”
“You’re welcome.” I leaned on the doorjamb as she took the cup.
“My girl in France quit yesterday. She was supposed to start in three
days. I have a video conference call with the family in a couple of hours.
Well, the dad. He’s a single dad. Filthy rich. A filthy rich Frenchman who
probably wants his money back.” She grimaced.
“So, you’re dolling yourself up to get him to what? Change his mind?
Ask you out?”
“Hey!” she protested with a grin. “To look professional, of course.”
I smiled. “Okay.” It was no secret that Tabitha, in running her own
agency providing exclusive, highly vetted nannies to the rich and famous,
was hoping that one day she’d find her own happily-ever-after. A single dad
would definitely fit the bill. She wanted a successful business and then a
family, in that order. She’d accomplished the first within several years of us
graduating college.
“Stop, Josie.” She rolled her eyes good-naturedly. “I was hoping to find
him another nanny, but I’ve exhausted all my available people and it’s so last
minute. I’m about to let him and his daughter down. I’ll ask Meredith if she
knows of anyone when she wakes up. Anyway, I’ll be out soon.”
“Good. I also need to look professional today.”
