DREAMFUL

      CHAPTER:5 

               ...When Dez finally reached the Times Square building, she saw many pretty girls, who she thought would have also come for the pageant audition. They were fair, tall girls with an 'actually' good sense of style. Dez started feeling small...not because of other girl's heights, she was 5'9 herself, but because of their fair complexions. Her skin was a wheatish golden complexion which made her stand out in the crowd.

"Will you just stand here all day and not go there?!", Ivanna said when she found Dez lost in her thoughts. Destiny turned around and started walking towards the exit. Ivy hurried beside her and held her hand tight but she kept on walking. Finally, Ivanna blocked her way.

"Ivy! I can't do this! Look at them! They are all fair, you get it F-A-I-R! And look at their outfits...it's like some professional stylist styled them on...they look so pretty and me? Look at me!-"

"Destiny Decker! You haven't come this far to go back home!".Destiny looked behind once again. Even their makeup looks so professionally done! she thought.

"No, Ivy...I can't do this...I won't be selected...today is a bad day, my coat is ruined and my audition is too!".Ivanna held her hand tight and started walking to where all the other girls were standing.

"You aren't going back, miss!", she said on her way. When she reached there, she came to know something which made Dez happy but sad at the same time, but more of happy. The audition was postponed...Destiny smiled a broad smile and pointed at the notice to Ivanna.

"See this. Now I can go!".But Ivanna looked sadder than ever.

"But Dez, you have to come back the day after tomorrow when it's rescheduled!", she said. Destiny casually put chewing gum in her mouth and said,

"I'll see."

"If you don't I'll kill you!", Ivanna said. Dez laughed and said,

"See Ivy. I don't think this audition was even meant for today...first that mad boy ruined my morning as well as my coat which ruined my mood as well...you know how it works with me...".Ivanna's phone started ringing. It was Grace.

"Your sister.", she said, handing over the phone to Dez.

"Hello?", Dez said.

"WHY ON EARTH DID YOU NOT TAKE YOUR PHONE ALONG!", Grace said in anger. Destiny checked her handbag.True.There was no phone. She had been so super nervous in the morning that she forgot her phone!

"Errrr....."

"And tell me how's the audition going? When's your turn?", Grace asked.

"Actually...", Destiny said, still chewing the gum,"...it got postponed-"

"WHATTTTT? 

WHYYYY?!!!!"

"How do I know that!"

"When is it rescheduled!?"

"Day after tomorrow.", Dez answered.

"You'll go again, okay?", Grace asked.

"I'll see, depends on-"

"YOU WILL GO, GOT IT?!!!"

"Fine, fine!!!", Dez answered. 

That night as they were having dinner, Destiny narrated the whole incident of the 'coat destruction' to her mom and sister.

"And trust me! I got so mad, I put his filthy jacket in that mud!", she completed.

"Aww...he must be sweet he offered you his jacket and you were so rude!", Mrs. Decker said with a smile.

"Mom. I'm serious."

"Okay, fine.Anyways, Dez. I've contacted one of the fitness trainers who will train you with the gym and-"

"Grace! I don't need a trainer, stop wasting money!", Dez said, cutting off her statement.

"Hear me, okay? He is new in the field and he has good knowledge about the fashion world in general, your training starts tomorrow-"

"Tomorrow? Grace please!"

"Destiny, if you want to be good in your field, you require to be fit! And that is impossible to do on your own!"

"I am fit, look. I am slim!"

"Fit and slim have a difference. Google that if you're confused!", Grace said angrily. Destiny let out a deep breath.

'Fine.Grace...I am not fit..."

"And, you must be to be a top model. Also, one more bonus is that a friend of his is a former model and she left the industry due to personal reasons, she will help you with the ramp walk."

"Great. Who 'leaves' the industry just like that?!".Destiny said, pretty shocked.

"I don't know, as I said. Anyway, I'll forward you his number so that you can start with your gymming. Good Luck!".

Yeah, sure wish me luck...I need it!, Destiny thought in her mind.
