“Do you want me to come out and look at a few places with you?”

“No, I need to do this on my own. But I’ll definitely have you out here for the grand opening.”

“We wouldn’t miss it for the world.”

And I know she means my dad and Anna too.

I bite the inside of my cheek. “Do you really think I can be a good boss?”

“Yes. And stop overthinking. This is your time to follow what you went to New York for.”

“I think you’re right.” New determination fills me; it feels like a rush of adrenaline. I’m finally ready to fulfill my dream, only two years late.

“I know I’m right. I’m so excited for you. Send me lots of photos.”

“Don’t forget to organize Anna’s surprise graduation dinner.”

“Yes, I’m planning it this week. You’ll be able to make it, right?”

“Of course, I wouldn’t miss it for the world.”

At least now I don’t have to dread arguing with Bobby about him coming. We had yet to meet each other's families. It wasn’t through lack of trying on my end.

Mom and I chat about our ideas for Anna’s dinner, and when I get off the phone, I pick up my food and eat it cold. Then I start searching for potential studio places, excitement bubbling within me as I wait for Summer and Nova to get here to celebrate.

Chapter 4

Chelsea

“So how many viewingsdo you have?” Summer asks from beside me. Her and Nova came with me today to inspect some potential locations for my new pilates studio.

“Six, but they aren’t far from each other,” I tell them both, wondering if I should have elaborated before now.

“That’s okay, we’re excited to go on this adventure with you,” Nova sing-songs.

I peer in the rearview mirror at her wearing a genuine smile as she looks out the window.

“Pull up anywhere here,” Summer says pointing on the left, reading what I can see on the GPS.

I park the car and climb out with my heart beating wildly in my chest. We all stand on the sidewalk, gaping up at the beautifully aged New York building.

Mitchell?the agent showing the listing?will be joining us here soon.

“This is huge,” Summer says, taking the words right out of my mouth.

The street is busy with people walking by and I’m having to get out of their way.

“Come over here and I’ll call?” I start, but I’m cut off by his voice.

“Chelsea?” Mitchell calls out. He walks toward us, wearing a nice navy suit. He seems young for an agent...maybe early twenties? Stopping short in front of me, he smiles and holds out his hand. “I’m Mitchell. It’s nice to meet you in person.”

I slip my hand into his and shake it. “Hi, Mitchell. Nice to meet you.” Pulling my hand out of his grip, I point beside me to the girls. “These are my friends, Summer and Nova.”

“Nice to meet you, too,” he says, stepping over to them and shaking their hands too. Then he returns his focus to me. “Are we ready to find you the perfect property?”

“Yes, please.”

“Okay, good. So this building here…” he starts to say, pointing to the one we’re standing in front of, “…is the first one. Follow me.” With a nod to us, he walks to the entrance.
