Writer's POV
Cut!!! The Director Said. That was incredible, Miss Emily. The Director Said. Obviously. She said more to her self. That would be all for today so please rest a little while. In thirty minutes time, we would go for Dinner and we would be meeting some of our investors for this Movies. The Director said. Lisa took out her phone to text Little Pumpkin and her Boss. She hasn't been able to thank them Since she had been on Set.
*Lisa: Thank you for the Roses
*Boss: It was little Clara's idea. I hope you liked them?
*Lisa: it was Nice
*Boss: How was today's Filming?
* Lisa: it was okay. Never thought I would enjoy Acting till now.
*Boss: You wouldn't know until you try.
Lisa: That's so True. I have to go now. There's a Dinner Gathering and I don't want to be Late.
*Boss: Have a nice evening.
Lisa, Are you ready? Matt asked. Yeah, Let's go. She said. Seems you aren't Mad at me anymore. Matt said. I wasn't Mad at you before. I just thought you should have told me. I was Surprised to see you even though I shouldn't be Surprised. Lisa Said. What do you mean by that? Matt asked. I mean this is a Rich Movie and you are a Top Celebrity so I'm Sure they would do everything to have you here. Lisa Said. I guess. Matt Said. So who sent you those Roses? You seem to have Admirers even though you just arrived at New York. Matt said. You talk like I've received more than this Roses. Lisa Said. I've just seen Guys stand in awe of your Beauty. Matt Said. You are talking Nonsense. She said and Left him. Few minutes later the Dinner was served and everyone was present . The Director stood up to Address everyone. Good Evening. I'm so Elated to work with Everyone and this wouldn't have been possible without the Support of our Investors, I thank all our investors, Present and Absent. He said and raised a Glass to toast and everyone joined in it and after the toast, he sat Down and just then a well known Figure Entered the Restaurant. Mr Olsen, I never thought you would make it. You are very much welcome. The Director Said. Lisa was so shocked that the fork in her hand fell to the ground. When did her Father start Investing in Movies. She thought he hated the Entertainment Industry. She didn't expect to see her Father especially not in a Place like this. Well, I didn't want to Come but my Precious Daughter insisted I should. He said. Wow!!! His Precious Daughter ... She should have thought about this. She should have been prepared. Maybe that was why she was having a bad feeling Earlier and just as she raised her Head up, her Eyes Met with that of her Father. She quickly turned her gaze towards another Direction. Mr Olsen, Have a Sit. The Director offered and he sat down still looking at his Daughter. Please welcome Mr Olsen, one of our Biggest Investors. They all Clapped for him. And Everyone started Eating. Lisa was eating Quietly which made Matthew worried. Are you okay? He asked. Yeah, Sure. She said. No one expect Sam and Lucy knew her Father and Step sister. She lied to them she was an Orphan. Excuse me, she said excusing herself to the rest room. When she got to the rest room, she quickly Dialed Sam's Number and she picked at the First ring. Hey! She said. Hey! Lisa Answered. I bet you are enjoying yourself. Sam Said. I'm in trouble. She said. Trouble??? Sam asked. Yeah, Emily invited Father. I didn't even know he started investing in Movies. Lisa said. Holly Molly!!! He started a year ago but I didn't know he was an investor in this Movie. And you don't want him to know you are back in town. What are you going to do?  It's not like I didn't want him to know. I mean he watches the TV and he has a phone. I just didn't want us to ever meet. I'm so much in a panic right now. I said. Just Calm down and breathe. And avoid him as much as you Can. When you get back to the table, Come up with whatever excuse and leave, I'll come and pick you up. Sam Said. I brought my Car. Lisa said. We'll pick it up later. She Said. OK, you are the best. She Said and hung up. She came out of the Toilet and washed her hands. And just as she came out of the rest room, she jammed her Father. Holy... She quickly stopped herself from Cursing. Good Evening, Mr Olsen. She greeted him. He ignored her. She tried walking past him but he Stopped her. Young Lady, what are you doing here. I thought I was Hallucinating when I saw you at the table just like I thought I was when I saw you were the Model for Shinell's brand. He Said. I came back to pursue my dream Career. She said. Is it? I Never thought you would come back after you fled three years ago. He Said. She was Quiet. Aren't you gonna Say anything, I'm so shocked you are not ashamed to show yourself to the whole world after causing a huge disgrace to your family. What do you want? Lisa asked. I want you to leave the Entertainment industry for good. You can also decide to leave new York like before or come work for my Company but I'm not going to get you in myself, you'll get in the right way. He said. Lisa laughed, she Laughed so hard, Three years ago, she would have done what her Father wants her to do Without any Complaint but not three years after. Are you kidding me, Mr Olsen, I didn't ask for your help to get to this place so why would I leave just because you want me to leave? Wow!!! That's hilarious, Mr Olsen. Lisa didn't know where she got this Courage from, the Courage to face her Father but she did it any way. Her Father was so Speechless and shocked. He didn't expect his Daughter to speak to him like that. She obeyed everything he said three years ago but he had underestimated her. Mr Olsen, if you don't have any other thing to Say, I'll like to take my leave. I bet the World haven't realized what happened on your Wedding day, how you ran away from your wedding and I bet they haven't found out that you are a pathetic bi**h who slept with a complete Stranger and got Pregnant. You should be Lucky you lost the Baby. Leave the industry or I would reveal those things and More you don't expect. He Said. Father, Do you feel so threatened by me, I'm Surprised. Well, what Can I say, you are Scared I would outshine your Precious Daughter or did she Send you to me. Well Father, I have some bad news for you. I dare you to Reveal those things. I would love to see you do so. I would love to see you tarnish your Reputation by yourself. I won't have much to loose since I'm only at the Start of my Career but you My Dear father know how Much loss you would Cause for yourself. A father to a Pathetic B**ch  A father whose Daughter escaped on the day of her wedding. He Couldn't even train his Daughter. He is just after  Money, Can't look after his Family... I know you wouldn't want that for yourself. She said and left immediately. Her Father stood there in Shock, he truly underestimated her. On the other hand, when Lisa got to the table, she gave an excuse and left hurriedly. She met Sam at the front of the restaurant. What took you so long? She asked. I saw him. she said and explained what happened after she left the Rest room. Holly Molly!!! Lisa, I'm so Proud of you. The good girl gone bad huh!!!. Sam Said. I swear, I didn't know where that came from, probably because I was pissed off. Lisa Said. I bet when he tells Emily, she'll be so Mad. Sam Said. Hey!!! Why are you Sobbing, Don't Cry because of him, he doesn't deserve your tears. He isn't worth it at all. Sam said. I can't believe he would call me a pathetic b**ch. He treated me like I was nothing to him. Lisa said. Then you'll also treat him like he is nothing to you. Sam said. Let's go for a Drink. We got to celebrate your first movie and the nerves to face your Father. Sam Said. I don't... Don't even think of turning me down. Sam interrupted and Drove to a bar. When they Got to the bar, Sam ordered a Whiskey. I'm not Suppose to be drinking. Lisa Said. Why? Tonight is Different, what were you you offered at the Dinner Gathering? Was it not an Alcohol. Just for tonight. Sam Said. OK, she took the Glass Cup and gulp everything at a go. Woah!!! How do you feel? Sam asked. Better, I guess Lisa Said. You Remember when you left that  night and I came to meet you at California, you remember what you told me, you said Sam, when I come back to New York for any reason at all, I won't be the Same, I won't allow myself to be cheated again. I won't be this Naive, Quiet,obedient, kind freak. I would be a bad a**  b**ch. I would also avenge for everything. I won't forgive like that. I won't let this one slide like every other and I'm happy you are keeping your promise to your self. I'm happier that you stood up to your father today. You didn't let him have the last say like before. I love this bad a** b**ch you have become. Even when you fought with me. Sam Said. Lisa too another gulp and laughed. I said it out of so much pain and sadness, you know. And gradually it became a life mission, gradually it became something I want to achieve so badly. As I couldn't get over the pain, sadness, I thought of how to make it possible. I couldn't get over it for days,weeks, months, till I met the person who gave me a reason to start again. Lisa Said. You didn't tell me about that. Well, do I know him? Sam asked you don't and will not. I have said a lot. She said and took another gulp. I'm just glad you me him. Sam said. I'm so drunk,I can't drive. I'll call Lucy. Lisa said and brought hey phone and dialed Lucy. She picked after the third ring. Hello, Lucy. Lisa said. Are you done with dinner? Lucy asked. I'm not there again. Lisa said. where are you? Lucy asked. Well,I went out with Sam And we are drunk right now. Can you please come and pick us up? She asked. Why are you? Lucy asked. We are in the bar not too far from the Miller's Hotel and Suites. Lisa said. I'll be on my way now. Lucy said. Thank you. Lisa Said. She'll be here soon. Lisa said and gulped another cup of Alcohol. You know you are lucky to still have Lucy As Your Manager. Sam said. I know, right. She's the best. I would have preferred nobody else. Lisa Said. Fifteen minutes later, Lucy Arrived. What is the cause of the celebration? Lucy asked. She stood up to her father. Sam Said. Her father? Lucy asked surprisingly. Well, her father was one of the investors of this movie. Sam Said. Let me guess,he told you to quit? Lucy asked. Yeah, Sam said and explained everything to her. Lucy who was Supposed to take them home joined in the Celebration and took a few Shots and everyone was drunk. Woah!!! Lucy, you were suppose to take us home. Lisa Said.
