The Actor Madness: Rise [COMPLETED]

Chapter XIII (The Intervention)

California, Los Angeles, July 5th 2017

It's been a while since I got away from my sister.

I am now working as a librarian with Roderick. Isn't it so sweet?!

To work with someone you love.

But I guess this thing of working together and going outside together all the time is kind of frustrating.

I love him, don't get me wrong but it's a bit suffocating because I used to live by individualism.

To be free to do what I want when I wanted to.

Now I have schedules to achieve, I can't be my truest self around Roderick.

It's a fact that I changed and that in relationships you're supposed to be yourself and be free and proud.

But there are things that we should keep to ourselves.

We have the right to be whatever we want when nobody is watching.

And lately I haven't been able to do it.

Roderick wants to talk to me. And by the tone of his voice, it's serious.

I'm not ready for a proposal. So let's see what he has to say to me.

It's our lunch time and since we work right next to our homes, we decide to lunch in one of our homes.

This time we choose his house. Well his mother's house.

She's at work. So there's nothing to worry.

Jordan – Oh god, people can be total dicks to librarians.

Roderick - Tell me about it.

Jordan – I had to grab a history book that was in the shelf of novels.

Jordan – Why are people so lazy to put the books in their right genres?!

Roderick – What I hate the most is people who borrow books but don't give them back on the time we set.

Roderick – I know they love the book but they have to do it so.

Roderick – I hate sending letters after letters because people don't return the books they borrowed.

Jordan – Yeah it's a pain in the ass.

Jordan – But I like this job. I feel like a dog running in a field.

Jordan – I'm surrounded by books. And how great it is to look at those shelves full of books yet to read.

Jordan – Yet to find what stories and lessons are in them.

Roderick – You're really passionate about it.

Jordan – I guess when I like something, I like it a lot.

Jordan – I put my whole heart in it.

Roderick - I'm sorry to ruin this beautiful conversation.

Roderick – But it's time for another conversation.

Jordan – Oh god. Just say it.

Roderick – I have to tell you something.

Jordan – I hate people who run around the bush.

Roderick – I'll be quite frontal about it.

Jordan – I'm waiting.

Roderick – Okay.

Roderick – I scheduled you an appointment at the Asylum in New York.

Jordan – Oh really?! Why?
