Attending this event was really a spur of the moment decision, and surprisingly required little convincing. Her dad’s approval was the main push, without it she probably would have never given the invitation a second look. The explanation as to why she was here was not so clear-cut or easy to explain in a few words. But casting her disorganized thoughts aside, Aiva decided to answer her first question.
She gave a small giggle, thinking back to previous conversations where the same question was asked. Whenever she had talked about her jobs for the first time, they all looked at Aiva like she said something ground-breaking or earth shattering. It was always this mixed expression of confusion, shock, and disbelief, one that made Aiva laugh. Though this was almost always the reaction, something made Aiva believe that Marcelle would react differently.
“I graduated from school not too long ago and got a job as a Neurologist late last year”, she paused for a second to think about her next words, “I also started doing some modelling gigs, that’s where I met Mr. Miller, he was at one of the shows”. She tapped her fingernails on the mug, thinking of other things she could share, “This is my first time leaving China, my motion sickness makes it hard for me to travel anywhere”. Aiva gave a small smile as she finished her tea, anticipating Marcelle’s response.
@duck - Marcelle
orp - sorry for the wait
