The Secret

Prologue

I turn on the radio and take a pull on my cigarette. The sun shines on my face while I'm driving down the highway.
Where is my phone? There are only a fee cars around so I stop watching the street for a moment to see if my phone fell down into the foot well. I can't find it there either, so I lay my focus on the street, again.
The wind is blowing in my face, I'm freezing. I'm almsot done with smoking my fag, so I throw it away and close the window. It's 12:34 pm, so I still have some time left until I'll meet my agent at 1:00.
I leave the highway and drive towards the city. My phone rings, it appears to be in the back.
I lower my tempo and grab my phone, then pick it up. My agent is already there, and he brought someone with him. Probably one of my future co-actors. I still can't believe that I'm going to stare into "Mother's tale", a very famous book adaptation. I reach the restaurant where my agent and I are going to meet. I park my red car and lock it, then walk inside the restaurant.
I see my agent sitting on a table, with him are a woman I don't know and a young man. I know him, I'm just not shre where from.
"Hi", I say to my agent, who gets up to give me a kiss on both of my cheeks.
"Tessa", he says, "this is Sara Blake, she's an old friend of mine. And this is Nick Robinson", he introduces the two strangers.
Nick Robinson. Now I remember his face.
