A Replica

Dina gritted her teeth as she studied her reflection in the mirror. She'd dyed her hair auburn, just as Michael liked it. He treated her well as long as she played the role of Rain whenever they were together.

Her wardrobe had even changed to business attire, reflecting Rain's polished style. "The man's insane," she muttered, though she couldn't deny that Michael treated her far better in bed than Paul ever had. Unlike Paul, who focused solely on his own satisfaction, Michael made her feel like she mattered… even if he was only pretending she was someone else. 

"What does that woman have that makes every man obsessed with her?" she hissed, grabbing her purse. Tonight, she'd be staying at Michael's apartment; he'd promised to do anything she wanted if she made him happy tonight. The thought had her rolling her eyes as she stared at the temporary dye on her hair.
