Townhouse: 9 pm
Caroline and Cassidy were spending the next five days with their father and Miranda had no idea what to do with herself.
Patricia had passed away two months ago after being hit by a car. The Second Assistant, that was with her at the time, suffered minor injuries. The man that hit them, would be spending the rest of his poor life in jail.
And now, Miranda is in her home, alone, wondering what her First Assistant, Andrea might be doing. The feelings for her First Assistant were growing and she, for the first time in her life, was not able to properly deal with her emotions.
Andrea was promoted around five months before, when Emily needed to take an emergency trip to England to see her family. The former First Assistant came back three months later and now worked with Nigel.
Miranda was lost in thought. She found it happened more than she would like and all of her thoughts were of that girl, that silly girl who had captured her heart without her consent.
A very loud noise brought back Miranda to reality suddenly and she moved to the stairs. Looking down, a scene she never expected to see, and one that horrified her. It had the same impact on her as when Cassidy broke her arm. She shook, not trusting at her legs to deal with the weight of her size zero frame.
The scene was horrifying. Andrea was on the floor, blood running down her arm, the dry cleaning at the floor.
Miranda forgot about everything. Moving as fast as she could on her trembling legs, she ran downstairs to see what might have happened to Andrea.
The girl had never had an accident in the two years that she'd been working at Runway. The opposite, she was always careful and attentive to everything.
"Andrea?"
5 minutes before
Andrea was not feeling well and the rain outside didn't help at all. She had too much heavy stuff in her hands, she felt she could not trust in her body to complete the simple task from before. They were as simple as always, but now, she felt she held the weight of the world in her hands.
As soon as she put the book on the table, she lost her balance with the dresses in her hands and then the noise of something breaking, the sharp pain in her arm, and blood.
A voice that she would recognize anywhere was calling her and she looked up, taking her eyes from the book, now covered with drops of her blood.
Andrea was worried that her time at the magazine and especially with Miranda would now be at an end with this accident. She started to cry. "Mi-Miranda sorry about the book. I am soooo soorryyyy."
"What?" Miranda was speechless. What was this girl is sorry about? She was hurt, with blood seeping from her body, and was apologising? "Andrea, where are you hurt?"
"Hurt?"
"Yes. Where?"
Before Andrea could respond to her, Miranda looked into the girl eyes and all the shine disappeared, leaving a very distressing image in Miranda's mind.
And like that, this was Miranda's last memory of the woman she'd learned how to love but had never had the opportunity to tell, 'I love you'.
On that day, Miranda Priestly lost control of her heart, loss control of herself and became someone much more frightened than ever.
