Feyi has lunch with Pooja Chatterjee to sort out the details of the commission. Alim says he is going to Mr. Phillips’s house. His old friend is horrified that he caused drama in their family. Inside the restaurant, Pooja is flirting with the staff and enjoying herself. When Feyi asks about her husband, she says he would be jealous she did not invite him but also that he likes to see her showing off her good taste in other women. Feyi asks Pooja what she sees in her work that made her ask for a commission. Pooja says that she had a daughter who passed away from leukemia and can still feel the hole she left. Feyi’s work shows the madness of grief that never leaves you. Feyi likes Pooja’s way of describing the feeling and asks what size piece she wants. Pooja says she likes things to take up space because taking up space is something she lives by. Feyi sees how she interacts with people around her and says she is doing a good job. Feyi asks how she feels about incorporating blood since it is a “fugitive pigment” and people tend to desire more permanence in their art.
