Chapter 22: Fittings
Dom drove me home from Carroll Street without saying a word.
At the shop he walked me to the door under the plywood, the way he always did.
"Ten days," I said.
"Nine and a half."
"What do you need?"
"Something he can't laugh at." He put his hands in his coat pockets. "Go to bed. You have fittings at nine."
"How do you know?"
He almost smiled. "You told me. In a text. Like a normal person."
On Thursday morning I walked up the white stairs on Madison with Gran on my arm and three sketchbooks in my tote bag.
The creative director had given me a workroom on the top floor.
It had a skylight, two dress forms, a cutting table twice the size of ours, and a girl to sweep up the pins.
"What's the girl with the broom for?" Gran said.
"The pins," the creative director said.
"Jemma picks up her own pins," Gran said. "With a magnet. Like a Christian."
The girl looked terrified.
Gran sat down in a chair by the skylight with her cast on her lap and decided to like her.
