TRIGGER WARNING!!!

Nancy's P.O.V

Fun fact: Today is Sunday and for the first time, Braden called to inform me that we should still be present.

Usually, Sunday is everyone's day off, but today is an exception.

You should also know that I was surprised and somewhat happy that he finally spoke to me, even though I know it wasn't necessarily by his free will. He did it because it's work related, but nonetheless it made my morning.

Yesterday was really...not how I expected it to go. I was happy in the morning, then all of a sudden, things just went upside down. I was happy about the fact that we visited Mr Thompson; successfully. At least, he knows the company's current status. The only thing is, we have to keep low on him cause we don't need him to die anytime soon.

I never knew he was an addict - scratch that... I never knew he is an addict, up until yesterday! All these years, I didn't notice the signs. I feel bad though. I can't believe that I was so blind to things around me all these years. But I still thank God that he didn't collapse or breakdown in his office when the egg was broken yesterday. I dont think I would have known what to do. I probably would've been devastated: {1} Cause he's our only hope of sustaining and understanding the company completely - how it works, the functions...blah blah blah. {2} Cause I can't risk loosing another person in my life right now. The dream I had could have been pointing to him after all.

That aside, I'm at work now. When Nina dropped me at my home yesterday, I had time to go through the screenplay that I collected from Kennedy two days ago. The scene was basically about Braden (Joshua) and I (Jessica) holding hands and saying a few things about our 'new found love'.

The way some movies just abuse the word 'love'...

It's annoying sometimes.

Anyways, Abby arrived just in time. It's as though she never travelled out the country. She did my final make-up and soon, all the necessary instruments for recording audio and video were set. When Mr Kennedy said 'it's a wrap', (alongside one of the other assisting directors that I have no idea what his name is...) we all screamed with excitement - well, I didn't really scream. Abby and some other people did.

Braden still has his monotonous attitude. I made a mental note to talk to him. If he has a problem with me, he has to tell me. I know that now the movie is wrapped up, he'd go back to Ghana with Rebecca.

At least, I don't have to see or hear from her again...

...but Braden will go too. An absence of Cassius, Tory and Braden?

It could...break me.

I've grown fond of them these past few months - well I've grown fond of Cassius for the past five years, Braden, for the past month and Tory for the past week, but I have been enjoying his jokes and entertainment for the past few months.

Ugh... I feel like a bad person.

I didn't call Adam that yesterday. I decided to focus on work instead. He must answer why Tory scrammed out my house the moment he set eyes on him. I didn't even like the idea of Adam driving me from the hospital yesterday.  I specifically told Samuel to come, and at the end, I saw Adam!
