Fashion week
Monday morning"You don't start out writing good stuff. You start out writing crap and thinking it's good stuff, and then gradually you get better at it. That's why I say one of the most valuable traits is persistence."

"Honey, you are fine as hell." Naomi's stylist, Marion, says as he fingers her blonde hair. "If I wasn't gay, chile.." He says dramatically.
Naomi laughs slightly while chewing her gum. "I won't tell if you won't." She winks.
Marion fans himself causing everyone in the room to laugh. It was Fashion Week in New York City and Naomi decided to attend with her two closest friends, Rayne and Remy.
It'd been a while since the three have been together. They weren't young anymore. They were women with respective careers with husbands and kids.
This was a good time for them to spend time with one another. It was also a good time for Naomi to make sure Rayne was okay.
Nia always attended, but she has a meet today. Therefore, she will make her appearance Friday when she flies in with Adrian.
Naomi wanted Nia to be well connected just in case her track career didn't work out. Nia had the height and face to be a model if she wanted to. When she was younger, she did a few modeling gigs.
A knock on the door causes Naomi and Marion to look in that direction, and it opened revealing Rayne and Remy.
"Shit." Marion curses to himself. "I think I'm straight now."
