THIRD PERSON

Finally, the commercial model and newbie actress Jennie Kim is having her big break in the industry. It happened when her recent Director on TV commercial offered her a leading role in an Action/LGBT themed film.

"You're fit on this role, Jennie. You're doing great. Accept this please? Don't worry. You will have more workshops if you want before we start shooting. I promise you'll love the script. lf you agree, let's meet next week for the script reading and story conference with your co-actors. I will arrange your flight going to New York. This is big, Jennie. You will be a big star! Believe in yourself, dear. I wouldn't offer you this if I don't see any potential in you." Leonore Smith, one of the prominent Film Directors encouraged Jennie to be one of her actors. She's having one of the lead roles.

Jennie was fixing her stuff from the studio after their shoot when the director approached her. She is damn nervous but at the same time excited!

"Uhm. I- I don't know what to say. Bu-but sure! I'm taking the opportunity." She said stuttering because of excitement.

"Oh, yes! Thank you, dear. Thank you. I will let our staff arrange your flight and accommodation. We will provide you an apartment during your whole stay while we're shooting. Maybe it will run for a month and a half. You know, your co-lead actor is a busy bee and indeed one of the greatest actors of all time." Leonore said.


"Who's my co-actor, Director?" Jennie's heart kept pumping wildly. She couldn't speak words properly.

"The one and only Lisa Manoban." The director happily said.

"Wh-who?". Jennie responded with wide eyes in shock.

********

Lisa's day is going to be so hectic. Moving from one shoot to another taping of a movie, commercials and TV Shows and photo shoot for endorsements, and even checking at night on her sister Somi who handles her businesses. When did she not become this busy?


The well-respected and the highest paid Actor in Hollywood, a character actress and one of the most effective endorsers in the world.

The Lalisa Manoban.

Even she is so famous now, she still wants to keep her life in private and as well as her daughter's. But people already know she is an intersex. She doesn't care what they might say about it. All she cares about is, there's more people who loves her for who she is and indeed for being a great actress. At the age of 25, she is even tagged as Johnny Depp's woman version when it comes to her craft and even Tilda Swinton is her fan, darling!


She's inside the car on the way to B7 Studio for a taping when she got a call from her manager and best friend Jisoo.

"Oh yeah?" She answered.

"Lalisa, I have good news! You're having a film with Director Leonore Smith. How does it sound?" Jisoo said.

"What the f! Seriously, Chu? Oh my god. Grab it!" She immediately said yes without asking for more details. She really loves Smith's thought provoking films.

"So you won't ask about it?" Jisoo was screaming on the phone

"Stop screaming! I want to be surprised about this project! See you at B7 in a while." Lisa said then dropped the call.

Lisa is a serious type of person. Stiff. Quiet. But deep inside she is shy, smiles whenever she's around with those she's comfortable with. Life challenges and trials made her who she is right now and she has to be really strong and serious.
