Chapter 12

So, it's the day!

My outfit was ready, waiting for me on the chair beside my bed. I walked towards the bathroom, brushed my teeth and moisturized my face. I brushed my hair lightly. I was told that my hair will be done after my arrival by professional hairdresser so I decided not to put to much effort in it. Same for my makeup so I thought that just some mascara and concealer would be fine to look somewhat presentable while getting there.

I put on high-wasted tight black leggings by Marc Jacobs, regular white t-shirt from nike, over it I threw cropped grey hoodie that I absolutely adored. It stopped right above my bellybutton and looked gorgeous, especially at summers when I don't use to wear t-shirt underneath it.

I slipped into my black regular converse and put on black sporty jacket I got on sale in nearby mall last month. I grabbed my car keys from the kitchen table and headed to the parking lot.

I followed the instructions on the map I was given since I declined the offer to have vehicle pick me up in front of my apartment. I really didn't need that for first few scenes that we will, on my surprise, film in the freaking Detroit. Second month of filming will probably be located in LA or somewhere else in dreamy California and I'm beyond excited to experience that! On the meeting we had a week ago, I mostly met the crew, the director, the camera guys, hairdressers, makeup artists, producers and some of the actors. The filming will officially start today even though nothing important will happen. We will just try out the small scene where the main male character and I are recalling moments from the past. So, we will have young kids that look alike us in the past film that scene and our job is to observe that and record thinking about the memories - nothing special just some eyes closing and deep breathing, no text whatsoever.

Basically, I have read the entire script and I already have scenario played out in my head but I highly doubt it will turn out just like I imagined.

As I noticed the park reconstruction we were supposed to meet up in, I pulled away and parked my car and the free space on the left. I checked my phone quickly and noticed I had two texts. One from Shawn and the other from Marshall. Firstly, I checked Shawn's message

From: Shawn Ass
Time: 8:36 am

Good luck bitch! You better rock them motherfuckers don't embarrass me asshole if u screw up u aint know any Shawn aight

I laughed and texted him to go fuck himself. Then I scrolled down to Marshall's message and without hesitation opened it.

From: Marshall M
Time: 8:41 am

BAL

BAL what? This man will never learn how to use his fucking phone I swear to God!

To: Marshall M
Time: 8:54 am

That means nothing Marshall

I texted him and deeply sight.

"Miss Blackburn, is that you?" A middle aged woman dressed in dark blue jacket and beige blouse spoke to me. She wore round glasses and had light red lipstick perfectly applied at the edges of her lips.

"Yes, it's me." I said.

"Hi, I'm Teressa Dallas. I'm one of the producers of the movie. You haven't met me yet but I'll be joining the filming since the day one which is today until the last." She said reaching her hand out to shook mine.

"It's pleasure too meet you Mrs Dallas. I'm Sarah." I smiled warmly.

"Oh please call me Tess, sunshine. So, from now on, if you need anything you will ask me. I will be the one notifying you, bringing you costumes, food, script and all that things you do on the set. It may be complicated and difficult at the beginning, but you will easily adapt sweetheart." She said and nodded.
