GeminiFourth - The Sun and His Beloved Star

5 - The Living and Breathing Night

Just as Gemini was on the verge of offering his heartfelt compliments to Fourth, the room's door swung open, and P' Pang entered, disrupting the moment. "Khun Lion, it's time for your audition group to go," P' Pang announced.

"Good luck na, Nong Lion," Fourth said, giving Gemini a warm hug, which Gemini reciprocated. As Gemini leaned in closer to his 'Lantern Boy's' ear, he whispered, "Good luck to you too. Let's meet up after the audition."

With exchanged smiles and a shared sense of determination, Gemini left the room, his heart filled with anticipation. He was eager to witness Fourth's audition as a secret judge. He knew that the director, Khun Ton, had a discerning eye for talented actors. Gemini couldn't help but imagine the expressions that would cross the old man's face as he watched Fourth's performance unfold on the audition stage.

As Gemini joined his audition group and made his way towards the audition area, his mind was still filled with the vivid image of Fourth's dedication to his craft. He couldn't help but feel a surge of pride and admiration for his 'Lantern Boy,' who had demonstrated such depth and insight into the characters.

P' Pang, who walked beside Gemini, cast a perceptive glance in his direction, attempting to gauge his mood. Her concern for what had transpired with Fourth still weighed on her, especially given the evident bond between the boy and Khun Gemini. She paused for a moment, her voice filled with genuine regret as she metioned the subject once more.

"Khun Gemini," she began, her expression sincere, "I want to apologize once again for allowing that incident to occur with Khun Fourth."

Gemini, though still in a good mood, appreciated P' Pang's concern and sincerity. He gave her a reassuring smile and replied, "Don't worry. We can find a way for your corporation to make amends."

P' Pang nodded, her expression serious, fully comprehending the significance of the situation. "I understand," she replied, her voice thoughtful. "We have conducted a thorough investigation into Khun Mew's actions, and he has informed us about Khun Arthid's involvement. We are prepared to take the necessary actions and make this information public through our official social media channels. Khun Arthid will be disqualified as a contestant as well."

Despite Arthid's attempts to conceal his involvement, a corporate powerhouse like AKA had its means and influence within the entertainment industry to extract information from Mew.

Gemini's eyes sparkled with determination as they continued walking along the corridor towards the audition room, which was just ahead. He had plans of his own, and he was determined to ensure that everything unfolded in a way that would serve justice and restore the tarnished reputation of his beloved 'Lantern Boy.'

"Could you postpone the public disclosure for now?" Gemini asked, his voice steady. "I have some specific plans, and I'd like your corporation's support when the time is right."

P' Pang was initially taken aback by Gemini's request, but her experience in the industry had taught her the value of discretion. She swiftly grasped that sometimes it was better not to delve too deeply into the reasons behind certain decisions. With a nod of understanding, she conveyed her readiness to collaborate.

"Of course, Khun Gemini," she responded, her tone unwavering. "We will be prepared to work closely with you when the time is right. Simply inform us when you are ready."

With that understanding in place, they entered the audition room, which was abuzz with energy. The atmosphere was a mix of excitement and nervousness, with some performers engaged in animated conversations while others maintained a quiet focus, mentally preparing for their moment in the spotlight.
