Hero

The days on set pass very slowly, between buffers every three days for the whole cast and a thousand rules to follow.

The only time we can really relax is when we all gather on the 24th floor of the hotel together to play or watch movies and football games, mainly.

Everything was going well, until yesterday afternoon while Jo and I were on set, some of our colleagues went on a sort of outing in the surrounding area, taking advantage of the fact that the crew needed to shoot some landscape footage.

What's strange about that?
So far, I would say nothing, except that...

"I had no idea, really!" Chance is truly mortified, despite having explained to him that nothing irreparable happened.
There's always a remedy for everything, especially when it comes to this shit!

"I didn't even know she was your friend!" Kiana sighs closing her eyes "She didn't tell us anything!"

"Relax guys, really!" I try to calm them down but this was not needed.

I look at Jo for support and she sighs biting her lip as she ties her hair in a high ponytail.
It sounds like a nightmare and maybe telling all the chaos that's going on, you wouldn't believe it.

Let's start at the beginning: what happened?

Well, apparently the photos they took during the afternoon were posted innocently by Chance on Instagram and as chance would have it, some of the extras from the film also attended this outing, including... Guess who?

Thyanna.

Now everyone on the internet is going crazy with borderline sci-fi theories that I brought my girlfriend, aka Thyanna apparently, to the set because I couldn't do without her.

I have chills just thinking about this!
They all think that the production pandered to my star whims by making me defy all the anti covid rules by bringing my girlfriend with me on set!

Apparently, I even couldn't do without sex so I brought my girlfriend along.
That thought alone is creepy in itself, between you and me!
I just wonder who can even think of such absurd things.

My girlfriend is on the set because she is acting with me and her name is Josephine Langford. Full stop.

Thyanna has already created enough chaos and continues to create it even without doing anything, unknowingly.

Jamie will be furious!
She had advised herself not to create havoc and now, even though I had nothing to do with it, I'm in the eye of the storm again.

"I'm tired, honestly..." I huff, whispering to Jo at a moment when we are close.

They're all playing one of the box games they provided and I'm absentmindedly watching the game on the TV.
Stephen was watching it with me but he fell asleep at least twenty minutes ago.

I am also very tired but this news has made me restless.
Jo took advantage of this moment when I'm basically alone to approach me.

"I know" She whispers pretending to look at the computer screen I hold on my lap.

She looks at me biting her lip, looking thoughtful.

"I don't want the whole internet madness to start again, it really seems endless!"

"Hero, we'll have to get used to it. More and more! And we will also have to get used to the fact that there are many things we cannot control, people's craziness being one of them! You will see that, just like last time, they will put everything to rest!"
