"apparently everyone and their mother felt that way but nobody had the guts to tell me."
“Hey, O, that’s not true, you know that’s not true,” Caleb protested, looking down at the shredded remains of her modeling portfolio. It was kind of excessive to destroy the evidence of her short-lived career, but then again, Ofelia had never been one to really do things in moderation. Still, her thinking that all her friends had just been lying to her, letting her think she had what it took to be a model when she didn’t... It made his stomach feel twisted into knots, and he shuffled through his camera bag, pulling it out and adjusting the lens before he turned to Ofelia.
“So these are maybe not the Valentine’s plans you would have wanted, but... go put on something awesome, bring a couple of changes of clothes, and we’re gonna go put together a new portfolio for you, okay? Those other photographers, they don’t know you like I do. They don’t know you’re the most beautiful girl in the world, inside and out, so they’re not gonna be able to capture that on film like me. But once we’re done tonight? You send the shots we take to modeling agencies, and they’re all going to be fighting over who gets to sign you next, okay? Don’t give up, Ofelia -- you’re gonna do this thing, nobody can stop Ofelia Grace Hyatt.”
