A Girl Like You
“My brain won’t stop racing, I’m hot and cold by turn, tossing and turning, in and out of shallow sleep. I don’t know if it’s tiredness or the insecurity curl just making its presence even more keenly felt, but my stomach is a bubbling, churning mass of nerves. My brain darts between work and Dave, work and Dave, neither thought giving me any rest or relief, just worry, worry, worry . . .
I beg the universe to let me sleep, then, since the universe isn’t answering, I call reception about the pho...ne charger.
At 7 am, unable to stop myself, I dial his number again. Straight to voicemail. I don’t leave a message, and instead dial room service to get a bucket of coffee. I need to be on form for my 9 am office-tour-and-brunch meeting with Andre, and my eyes feel so tiny and heavy I can hardly see.
The coffee doesn’t help. I’m a total zombie.
‘Are you hungry?’ asks Andre, when we’re finally sitting down to eat in the hotel coffee shop.
‘Starving,’ I lie.
I’m too exhausted to be hungry.MoreLess
