Chapter 203

• REGINA
• Regina hadn't exaggerated at all when she told Milo that she was exhausted, but it seemed that just the prospect of meeting him was enough to dissipate much of her fatigue. By the end of the day, her tiredness was compounded by annoyance with her boss. Bratt took more liberties, as if the fact that she depended on this one job gave him rights over her.
• She could contain it, even though his hands became more and more impertinent and unpleasant. If this continued, it was only a matter of time before she had to slap him, and that would bring the dismissal she feared so much. She had decided that it was necessary to start looking for other jobs again, pounding the streets and agencies with her resume. Tina kept insisting on how important it was for her to promote her clothing design skills, and she understood that she was right. She had nothing to lose by trying, by offering her services online.
