the door of apartment 908 swings open after courtney knocks, and a well dressed sophia nampheung holds the door open. the chief of staff lives in the juniper, a well maintained and luxury condominium in downtown willow glen. sophia has been living in the juniper for the last five years. a smile spreads on the woman's features to let the host and camera crew in. " shoes off please and welcome to my home ! "
" what is your favorite kind of house guest ? "
sophia leans against the back of chocolate brown 7th avenue couch, arms folding across her chest while pondering over question. " mm, someone who knows when it's time to go home ? " she laughs, waving her hand. " i'm kidding, but i just love anyone who brings a peaceful vibe in the home. i like when girlfriends come over— their presence is always so comforting. "
" which room has the best lighting for selfies ? "
" easy, my bedroom. " she shows off massive windows, which gives a beautiful display of downtown willow glen. it's mid morning, so the room is alight with the sun. " it's one of my favorite rooms when i need to hop on a zoom call, too. the lighting is incredible. "
" when was the last time you used your pool ? "
the woman shrugs, shutting the door that accesses the pool behind her. " it's been a while, honestly. if i come to the pool it's usually just for a change in scenery. "
" if your home had a soundtrack, what would it be and why ? "
sophia stands in the kitchen, having just shown off the sky light calendar on her wall. " oooh, i love this question. i tend to listen to music to unwind when i come home, but i'd say it'd be olivia dean's entire the art of loving album. i might have overplayed it and gotten on my neighbors' nerves with it. "
" what's in your fridge right now ? "
she makes a face before turning to her fridge, a stylish platinum glass café fridge with french doors. " uh, not much ... actually. eggs, yogurt, some fruit and like— " her voice trails while counting. " seven cans of diet coke ? uh, i need to go grocery shopping, clearly. i tend to order take out more than i actually cook, so my fridge being bare bones isn't all that surprising. "
