Unexpected Encounter

The month passed with similar incidents of Rhea practising and Ryan helping her once in a while. Rhea was quite happy with her progress. Still, she wasn't sure how well she would be able to draw when the model is not Ryan. 

On the day of the competition, she dressed in her regular wear. A white t-shirt, a green and white sweater above it and blue jeans. She combed her hair and let it free. She looked pretty normal.

She had been waiting for a call from Ryan. Whenever there was an exam, he would call her and wish her good luck. This was not an exam, still, she was hoping to get a call from him. Ryan didn't call her. He hadn't even sent her a text.

Could it be that he had forgotten about her competition? It slightly disappointed her. 

Rhea packed her bag and went down.
