Mew's POV

----------------------------------

Today, we are having a workshop, once I got there I was surrounded by fellow actors and other stuff, I glanced around scanning all the faces present in the room, that author was nowhere to be found, 'great, I can relax and act like I want' just when I thought that the door opened as a familiar unwanted figure came in, I quickly looked away not wanting to meet him, everyone went to greet him while I sat reading my scenario.

"good morning Mew"

"oh, good morning P' Sunan"

"are you ready for this exciting series?"

"of course, you look so shiny director"

"I can't wait to start the actual filming, god luck today and please listen to Gulf's advices, I know it's offending for you as a top actor but if you listen to him you will surprised by his wide and cool imagination and ideas" I nodded faking a smile, not wanting to cause any trouble by the first workshop

"I will, don't worry, let's all work hard to make this series successful"

"that's the spirit" I heard someone calling me as I turned around just to lock eyes with the writer, I couldn't help but glare at him yet he smiled and turned talking with the director making me stunned and confused, what did he mean by that ugly smile? He was surely trying to act cool to make me angry

The workshop started by him telling us a few details about Italy, the atmosphere there, the kind of people there, the weather he even shared some sceneries photos of the places he'd got to when he was there, he also kept blabbering about the characters emotions and I'm sure he meant it for me so I focused on the script and ignored him

"... you know, this is actually my favorite book and I worked day and night to finish it and share it with the world so seeing it coming alive is like a dream come true for me so I'm counting on all of you to astonish me with your talents so we can all enjoy watching this story on screen" he finished earning a loud applauds and whistles from everyone, he sure knows how to impress people with that skilled tongue of his

Each group started training on their part, I too started practicing with the other two main actors, the director and that author was walking around answering questions and helping them during their scenes, good thing he never approached me and we continued the practice until lunch time, I took the corner and kept reading the script while eating a sandwich, I suddenly flinched when I felt my phone vibrating, I glanced to find a message from an unknown number

*** I'm at the hall next to the vending machine, we need to talk***

I returned my phone in my pocket ignoring the message, there nothing to talk about... remembering what P' Phichit, my manager said about letting him speak whatever he wants and then shut him with my acting made me change my mind and slowly walk toward the empty hall outside, when I arrived I found him typing on his laptop and drinking coffee

"I don't remember giving you my number"

"I asked your manager" he talked not even glancing at me

"hurry up and talk" he made one last tape then closed his laptop and looked up to me

"we need to make things clear, you obviously hate me and I can't see myself getting along with you so let's keep our relationship purely professional"

"I'm professional" he chuckled

"yeah right, it was clear from you glare earlier, anyway, I'm going to do my job and you do yours, I'm going to say what I want out loud and you do whatever you want, either listening to my advice or acting on your own, I don't care anymore" he stated looking serious but somehow I could see how he was feeling, depressed and mournful
