Chapter 3

"If understanding others is that easy then loving others will be very easy as well"

"Wow, who is that new guy? He looks so handsome."

"I have seen him at the dressing room earlier without makeup, trust me he is as handsome as he is with makeup on"

"He is not talkative at all though, I thought he'd kill me with his stare earlier when I spoke a little extra than what I was supposed to"

"He looks like a player but his actions are nothing of that sort. Just plain cold and aloof"

Hearing the conversations of the staff who leaned behind the vanity van of Tiera, her interest in this mystery guy has piqued.

"Who is this guy they are talking about?" She asked her assistant as she brushed her hair.

"It is one of the actors from the second leads" the assistant was quick to reply.

"Is that the one I have scenes in the first schedule with?"

"Yes boss"

"Alright let's say hello to our new colleague then" Tiera adjusted her bra to shape the jiggling melons as a smirk appeared on her face.

"Hello, Mr..." She extended her hand intruding into the dressing room. It's uncommon for the staff members to see her around in the common dressing room as she always acts spoiled demanding everything to be down at her vanity van. More or less everyone on the set had at least one bad experience with her already.

Yoren didn't touch her hand but just slightly nodded his head in a greeting "I am Yoren Saga"

"I see nice to meet you, Mr.Saga, I think I don't need to introduce myself to you?"

"I forgot your name, but you are the FL if I'm not wrong?"

You forgot my name? You forgot the Goddess Tiera Yen's name???? Hmph! If it's not for that scandal I would never have to accept this mediocre project and work with rookies like you. Tiera stormed out of the room stomping her foot on the ground.

The elderly woman who is doing Yoren's makeup and a few costume guys who stood there was speechless at Yoren's boldness.

"Yoren, did you see the poster of our DOB on VVB??!" Haar's eyes twinkled brightly as he pointed out the online poster on a popular films and shows website.

"You look very good in there Senior but the poster is a bit too simple" Yoren commented.

"Yes, of course, ours is a small budget production, it's a wonder in itself it got featured on VVB and that is because..see here, Tiera is on the list of the popular actors again " Haar's eyes are fixated on the poster.

"Are you that happy?" Yoren asked Haar observing his depended dimples with happiness.

"Of course, it is the first time I am on a show poster, I was always the extra so I never had the chance, in sorts, this is a dream come true" Haar smiled.

"Your dream very low" Yoren spoke with a neutral tone.

"Well, you could say my dreams are quite grounded "

"You know that you are much more talented than that?"

"Every artist dreams to be number one ... but"

"If you are true to your heart and do what you love to do, you will definitely find success one-day. You love acting and are true to yourself always constantly trying to improve, learn, and practicing to perfection. I believe one day you will top everyone, you will be on the top of that list senior. " Yoren commented sincerely.

"What has gotten into you suddenly?" Haar was flustered.

"Carbonara" Yoren changed the topic.

This kid Haar rolled his eyes.

"You realize you messed up big time didn't you?" Haar spoke to Yoren in a careful tone.

"What about?"

"You shouldn't have said that to her face, after all, Tiera is the only famous name in our show" Haar came to the point.

"I really didn't remember her name, why would that be offensive? I don't expect everyone to remember my name either. How come you know it anyway?"  Yoren said while causally while removing the last traces of his makeup checking in the mirror.

"It's all over the cast group chat, didn't you check it?"

"Not really, I don't like those kinds of group chats just stupid people gossiping who got nothing better to do"

"There you go again, you and with your god complex, you would come off as rude to people if you are that direct."

"Isn't that the truth though?"

"You behave fine with me why can't you be like this with others?"

"That is because you are you Senior"

What does that even mean? "Yoren, I know you are new to this industry, it's all about making connections you cannot be that blunt towards people, you cannot stand in this industry longer if you're like this"

"Then so be it. Carbonara" Yoren plumped on the sofa without paying much attention to Haar's nagging as Games playfully followed him.

"And that you cannot have that many carbs" Haar put a hand on his waist really sounding like a nagging mum.

"Keep your schedule clear this weekend" Yoren started to play with Games.

"For what?"

"You've said you wanted to see my place" Yoren shifted his attention from Games to Haar with an alluring look.

"I...I never said that...I was just saying.." Haar felt his cheeks burn and his throat dry.

"We'll go there this weekend," Yoren concluded.
