Rae nodded slowly. "What did you do as a Three back home?"

“I was a writer. Stories, mostly. Fiction. You?”

"Painter and sculptor. Painting mostly."

“Nice. A five, then?”

Rae nodded and smiled bashfully. "Yeah."

“I’ve always wanted to be a five,” Bri said. “Sounds stupid, I know.”

Rae raised an eyebrow. "Why?"

“Art is funner than trying to devise new storybooks every week.”

Rae shook her head. "I'm sure that's not true."

“You’d be surprised at how quickly you run out of new storylines,” Bri said quietly.

"You'd be surprised at all the things that come with being able to paint for a living," Rae said in an unintentional sharp tone.

“I’d be willing to live with the bad conditions and low pay grade if I actually got to do what I wanted to,” Brianna snapped back, but then she took a sharp intake of breath. “Maybe lets not talk about this anymore. You never know who could be listening.”

Rae shook herself out of it. "I'm among the poorest of the Fives. And you're a Three. I'm sorry if that sets me off." She took a deep breath and smiled sweetly. "Anyway."

“Are you excited for the guests?”

"Very. Have you finished organizing your reception?"

“Yes. It should be fine, though I’m still nervous.”

"Obviously. Who are you with?"

“she said her group”

"Nice."

“Yep. So I guess you are with says other people?”

Rae nodded. "They're quite nice, actually."

“That’s good. I wish we were on the same team, but you cant have everything,” Bri said.
