One hand is gripping Max's tightly, the other white knuckling the railing. My heart is beating in my chest so hard I feel like I can't breathe, my chest heavy and constricting not helping. As we take the steps upward I begin to tremble, the thought of yanking my hand free of Max's is overwhelming. I look behind me noticing I'm closer to the top than the bottom. It would be stupid to turn back now, but it doesn't stop me from wanting to. "Almost there, come on Rae," Max encourages.

"You know I don't take no for an answer. So make that 10% chance worth it." I replied and hung up immediately to avoid hearing more excuses, and also because I believed she'd get me the appointment.

I’ll figure something out.” I smiled weakly at him. “It’s not… a total loss. The client just decided that my proposal was not modern enough.
