His Lens Has No Room for Me
Seven years with a photographer, and I don't have a single decent photo of myself.
"I only shoot landscapes, not people," my boyfriend, Dwayne Norton, always tells me.
He even claims he broke up with his ex because she kept forcing him to take her picture.
So, for seven years, I play nice. I never ask and never push.
Until today, when I'm scrolling through social media and see a post from my influencer best friend, Aviana Reed.
"My personal photographer has been shooting me for seven years. Every single shot is a masterpiece!"
In the comments, there's a reply, "It's an honor to shoot my muse."
The profile picture is pitch black.
The tone is so familiar it leaves me completely numb.
He doesn't hate shooting people. He just hates shooting me.
Dwayne, since there's no room for me in your lens, then this time, there's no room for you in my world either.
