Kate unlocked her door as quickly as she could, half bursting through the door and diving on the ringing phone.
"Hello?" she said breathlessly.
"Hello, is this Kathryn Tucker-Harris?" an English voice asked.
"This is she..."
~*~*~*~
An hour later, Kate hung up the phone, looking slightly dazed. She took her school books into the kitchen, setting them on the table before going to her room to hang her bag on the doorknob.
She went back into the kitchen and sat down at the bench, staring off into space as she processed the news she'd just received.
She'd applied for that modelling program at the beginning of last year, never dreaming she'd get in. And now... she had her answer. She was in. A year long program in Japan. And she could start it as soon as she was finished with school.
Very tempting.
