Addison Blakely: Confessions Of A PK (2012) - Plot & Excerpts
I stared at Tripp, my bitten-to-a-nub fingernails digging into my clipboard. “You’re on next. Next!” Tripp just shrugged, fiddling with the zipper on his oversized hooded sweatshirt. From his lack of reaction, you’d think he’d just told me he was having a bad hair day or something equally insignificant. I closed my eyes and concentrated on breathing, the side seams of my black dress protesting with every inhale. What was it? In through the mouth, out through the nose—or vice versa? Either way, I would hyperventilate if I kept this up. I opened my eyes, forced a smile, and nudged Tripp toward stage right. “Just get your crew ready to go on. I’ll find the CD. If they call your name before I get back, stall.” Tripp’s eyes widened. “Stall? How?” “Tell jokes. Stand on your head. I don’t care—just stall.” I couldn’t help the niggle of joy that filled my spirit as I rushed away. Finally, an emotional response—and someone realizing I wasn’t necessarily superwoman after all.
