"Good morning, P' Fluke!" Sara greeted as soon as she saw Fluke. 

"Good morning, Sara! Lovely day, isn't it?"

"Very." She answered with a smile. "Are you going out today?"

"Yeah. I need to go to the grocery. We ran out of flour and sugar. I was too busy these days that I didn't notice it. I need to go buy some for today since I've just ordered from our supplier. They said they would be able to deliver by tomorrow."

"Didn't Peter remind you about it?"

"I think he did. But I kinda forgot it." I said smiling cheekily. "I think I'm becoming forgetful these days. Maybe I'm getting old."

"What do you mean you're getting old? You are just two years older than me." She said and laughed. "Oh by the way. This one came yesterday afternoon. I wasn't able to give you right away. I'm sorry." She handed him the envelope.

"Wow! Look at this, Sara. Isn't it beautiful?" I showed her the invitation to Boun and Prem's wedding. "Prem mentioned to me that he personally designed this."

"He's really talented."

"That's for sure," I said feeling proud of his friend. "By the way, did you confirm the production team about their schedule on Tuesday?"

"Yes, they will be here early in the morning to set up their equipment. They will start filming by nine."

"Okay. Got it. Just update me if there are other changes. Did they request additional meals? We need to contact our suppliers to deliver us more."

"I already informed them about that. They initially said that we would only serve the executive producers, directors, and artists. About ten to twenty people, I guess. But they would email the list later since I asked if they have allergies to some food and the like."

"That's great, Sara. You're the best! Thank you." I said. "I'll go ahead then. Just call me when if anything happens, okay? See you later!"

"P' Fluke, Khun Park is looking for you," Peter said as he peeked from the outside of the kitchen door.

I went out to see a couple of men with the production staff who made the arrangements for them to shoot at The Sanctuary. I smiled at them as I removed my gloves and mask since I just came out from the kitchen preparing food for the team.

"Hi, Good morning! Welcome to The Sanctuary. I'm Fluke." I said and extended my hand to shake their hands.

"Nong Fluke, this is our producer, Khun Film, and our director, Khun Jam." the staff introduced the two men. 

"Hi, Fluke,  your place is really beautiful. I already tested some shots and it turned out lovely." Jam said.

"Wow! That's great to hear. I'm glad you like our place." 

"I love it, too." Film said. "It looks so peaceful here. I wish I had known this place before. It's a good place to take a rest."

"It is Khun Film. You can always visit us. Khun Park has our contacts. Just call us so we can arrange your stay here." 

"You bet. I just need to finish this MV. Expect my call once this one's done, right N' Jam?" He asked and the latter just nodded.

"We'll wait for your call," I said with a bright smile. My eyes blinked instantly as I heard the sound of the camera shutter. "Uhm. . . uh. . ."
