Chapter 62

When I entered, Nina and Carrie were helping the actresses dress for act one.

“Why is this suddenly so tight?” Elaine asked while buttoning her skirt.

“Maybe because you haven’t been watching what you’ve been eating?” Carrie replied with a light laugh. “Sorry, it was there,” she added, getting an eye roll from Elaine. “Give me a minute to move the button over.”

Without bothering to have Elaine remove her skirt, Carrie snipped the button off and sewed it on again half an inch over. As she did, I caught her reflection in the mirror. She was scowling at Elaine. There’s no love lost there, at least on Carrie’s part. Interesting. Jealousy over a man, or something more?
