After Dark, Ava — The Maison Viera Fitting

People say you do not need to see Ava's face. Watch her take three steps and you know it is her. That makes hiding at school easy. No heels, no couture, just an oversized hoodie, loose jeans, and old canvas shoes.

To everyone here, I am just Avery. After school, I walk into the Maison Vera flagship store. It is next month's New York closing look, and it was made for me. I study it.

The waist is slightly loose. Do not touch that. This is unreleased Maison Viera couture. It is not for students to play with.

I was checking the fit. The fit? This gown was made for AV. You could not afford to damage one bead.

I can buy it. With what? Your lunch money? And it is not for sale.

It already belongs to AVA. That makes things easier. What does that mean? Avery?

Miss Collins. You know her? Of course. Miss Collins is a fitting model hired by headquarters.
