I’m sitting at my desk, trying to slow my heart rate down a little to pick up the phone. I just can’t believe that Isabel Evans, world famous fashion designer, is on the other line waiting to talk to me! I mean, yeah, I had read the tabloid headlines that declared in bold print that she had recently gotten engaged but I never believe what I read on the covers of those things and I certainly never read the inside of them…well, ok, I do but only when I’m waiting at the doctor’s or dentist’s office and I certainly don’t believe what they print.
So when Maria burst into my office, so excited that she couldn’t breathe, I had no idea what to make of it…until she told me who was on the other line, waiting to talk to me about setting up an interview to maybe hire me. This is it! This could be my big break into doing celebrity weddings! I’ve done a few weddings of some wealthy people and most couples are willing to spend big bucks on their “blessed day” but celebrities are constantly getting married and divorced…and married again. Not that I think Isabel Evans is one of these people, but if she were to hire me…it would be my step up into big business.
“But only if you pick up the phone, Liz, and stop sitting here making her wait!” I say aloud to myself. Taking a deep breath, I quickly brush my hair behind my ears, pick up the receiver and put on a big smile. I’m proud of how calm I sound as I say, “Yes, Ms. Evans, this is Liz Parker. How may I help you?”
