"Male models? What's going on with you lately? First, you're trying to buy a bar, and now you're planning some
kind of male model show?" Ron sounded equal parts floored and suspicious after | pitched my idea.
"I'm just having fun. Can't you tell?" | replied, laughing to brush it off.
But Ron wasn't buying it. He squinted at me, his detective mode fully activated.
Whatever. | rolled my eyes and launched into my pitch. "Okay, so our company's doing that light and music

creativity."
| grinned. "Exactly! So, you think it'll work? Cool. Start building a team to make it happen."
He gavethat are-you-kiddinglook. "Ms. Kay, you think this is, what, grabbing clothes off a store rack?
This would need custom designs, production, and oh yeah we're already on a tcrunch."
| gave him my best pretty please face. "I know, Ron. That's why | need you. You're the genius who can pull it off."
"Your pretty face's not gonna cut it," he shot back, shuttingdown before throwing in a casual, soul-crushing
zinger. "Unless Hayden were here-maybe he'd make it happen."

Anyone watching could tell | was fuming. Apparently, Ron caught on, too, because next thing | knew, he was
jogging to catch up.
"Alright, alright," he said, his tone way softer now. "I'm sorry. | shouldn't have brought Hayden into it, okay? We'll
go with your human light show idea. If anyone's got a problem, I'll deal with it." Since he actually apologized-and,
like, meant it-1 decided to let it go. "Thanks," | muttered.

Back at my desk, | tried diving into work, but my eyelids had other plans.
It was giving serious textbook syndrome-you're fine until the second you try to focus, and bam, instant nap
mode.
Two sleepless nights had officially caught up with me, and honestly, | wasn't about to fight it. | ditched my desk,
kicked off my shoes, and crashed on the office couch,
No clue how long | was out when | got jolted awake.
"Ms. Kay, wake up. | need your help with something," Ron's voice cut through the fog in my brain.
| blinked, heart pounding from the suddenness, still feeling half-dead. Without moving, | mumbled, "What now?"
"There's someone flying in for our new project. Big deal. Their flight lands at 4:30. You've gotta get to the airport,

"This partner is really important," Ron added before finally leaving.
Once he was gone, | closed my eyes for just a second, trying to quiet the nerves buzzing in my chest.
| didn't fall back asleep-I just needed a second to shake off the weird pit in my stomach.
