No,

My mind was just projecting wrong images, she did not kiss who I'm thinking of. There is no way, no way. She wouldn't do it that's ridiculous she's Amanda, she's ... she just can't do it!

My grip on the knob tightened, I squeezed my eyes shut and shook my head to clear it out.
I opened the door, the three women who were standing next to Amanda stopped laughing. I recognized their faces, "Morning." I nodded in greeting. "Morning!" They replied in unison, all smiley and bright. "Make up department, right?" I said, ignoring looking at Amanda, "Yeah they'll do your make up work here," Amanda answered cheerfully on behalf of them, "And hair too! You need to re-dye and cut it by the way." She added. She looked more happy and excited than she normally is. "Okay, won't I have breakfast with the cast first?" I asked while opening the door fully, letting them in.

I didn't actully care for breakfast, I wanted to see Robert. I wanted to have the first meal with him just like how we used to do. I miss his eyes and how it felt waking up to them, I miss his face, his laugh when I complained about the smell of bacon, his silly comments about the smoothies I order every morning, I miss him.

"They already had breakfast, I forgot to tell you." Said Amanda, sitting on one of the couches crossing her leg over the other, "Robert asked about you though." Her lips curled into a shy smile when she said his name, making a hint of red blush showing up on her cheeks. The make-up team who were preparing the tools, exchanged soft giggles and winks. Her attitude was starting to annoy me, it might be because he's her favorite actor and she 'likes' him and they were teasing and joking around with her. Plus I thought she was seeing someone if what I heard few minutes ago about her kissing a man is true. I didn't know. I was probably just afraid to think of that thought, the dark thought I called it.

"What did he say?" I asked impatiently, through clouds of thoughts in my head,
"He asked if you were going to join them or not so I told him I'll call her but as I said, I forgot." she rolled her eyes. I could see that she was lying. She didn't forget, she simply didn't want me to have a meal with him. I didn't want to call her a liar so I just nodded and dropped the subject, "Anyways can you find me the damn script, I swear that thing is cursed it always disappears and also get me a blueberry smoothie and a protein bar." I ordered her, pinching the bridge of my nose, "Alright boss," She snickered and got to her feet. 'Gee what the f*ck is wrong with her today!' I thought to myself.

"Uhh may we start doing your make up and hair?" Asked the brunette girl, I don't even recall her name. I nodded, "Yeah sure." I walked over to them and sat on the make up chair. "I'll cut it first and we need to re-dye it, the blue color is fading out," The hairstylist said tossing my hair around. "Can we like air brush it and do dye later? just a trim for now," I suggested. Honestly, I just wanted to finish early so I can go to Robert, he's the only one who can bring peace to this overthinking-brain of mine. And also I didn't want to sit there choking on the smell of bleach.

They agreed and started to work. Seconds later Amanda brought me my drink and handed me the script, "Don't lose it again. I going to The lobby text me if you need me." She said quickly and stormed out of the room.

I stole a couple of sibs from the drink and bit on the bar as they worked on my hair. I went through the white pages, memorizing my lines again. A sound of text notification came out of my phone. I looked at the screen and it read A message from Robert. I opened the text immediately,

Robert,
Morning sleepy head.

Although it was just a text, it sent an adrenaline rush through my body, my mouth stretched into a huge smile.

Morning! How are you?

I replied and waited for his response,
