Vanessa

Holding my breath, I back away from the mirror, widening the distance between Carmella and me.

"Took you long enough to figure out that it's me," she says.

"You know the answer to that."

"I definitely wasn't following you, bitch. Don't forget where we are. It's a women's conference."

I scoff. "Then why are you dressed like someone else?"

"I just felt like having a change of style."
