THE blinding lights from the chandelier and the flashing of the cameras, hurt Janni’s eyes. She chose to look a little low to avoid hurting her eyeballs more.
She has been waiting for this. She spent sleepless nights due to excitement. The eyebags that have been perfectly hidden by the makeup can attest to that.

“No used to cry, Little Jackman.”
Janni turned to her mom. The blue eyes of her mother were misty. She knew that hers were the same.
“We can call this off. Just say the word, baby.”
She and her mom laughed at Mama Becca’s statement.
“I love you, mama. Please hold my hand. I think my knees are shaking.”
Mama Becca
