"Five more minutes, Fluttershy!"

"Okay..."

She gently closed the door of her dressing room, enjoying this small refugee of privacy. She didn't had much time. Soon, she'll have to return to the runway, to the flashes and the critics eyes. She hated this life, all those eyes on her, all this unwanted attention but such was the life of a fashion model.

If only she had followed Twilight advice, if only she had told the truth, at least to Rarity, she deserves to know what Fluttershy really...

She shook her head, trying to scare all those thoughts away. Her time is short and she must not waste it . Her fan mail almost reaches the roof, hundreds of fillies that admire her and wish her lifestyle, she wishes she could answer back to all of them but there simply isn't time. She separates the letters of her friends and smiles at seeing those familiar stamps.

There is a postcard from Applejack, showing the proud Applebloom wiht her brand new Cutie Mark. The last time she saw her was when she made an advertisment campaing in the orcarhd. She barely talked to them but was able to share a meal with the entire Apple fmaily, a memory she will enver forget. Twilight letter is ridiculous detailed, she wished for her to tell more about her life instead of some many facts about Ponyville. Rainbow made a terrible job trying to hide her petition to met the Wonderbolts, Fluttershy will be glad to invite her but Photo Phinish was very strict about guests. Pinkie Pie just sent a cupcake, the simplest of gestures was also the most appreciated.

But nothing from Rarity.

Not a letter, not a gift, nothing. They haven't spoke to each other in almost a year. Was she mad at her? Did she did something wrong? She was following her plea, shining across Equestria, this should have made Rarity; but if that's the case, how come she never tries to visit her? How come every time she manages to visit the town, Rarity always excuses herself with work? How come she never answer the few letter that Fluttershy had sent to her?

There was one time she thought she saw her, hiding behind the crowd, running away before she could reach her, leaving only a shadow in the wall. Why did she ran? Why they stopped being friends?

"I´m sorry Fluttershy but we only had two minutes."

"I´m almost ready..."

She looks at her reflection and puts on a smile. THey need to see the confident and beautiful model, nto the insecure and hurt pegasus. She has a role to paly, she made a rpomsie to Rarity; but deep inside, she wishes to know the reason of why the unicorn abandoned her.

She slowly walks out of the dressing room, the gentle movement of her wings shaking the fan mail pile,a single letter escaping it and falling to the ground. She missed that letter by just an inch, if only she had two more minutes she would have read it, the first letter that Rarity sent after months of gathering the courage to say those words, to finally explain how her jealousy took the best of her, how she failed to notice how miserable Fluttershy really was and how she regrets having pushing her into this.

If only Fluttershy had read that letter she would have understood everything.

The assistant just thought it was garbage and tossed it along with the empty cupcake wrapper, never to be found.
