"So, what are you telling me?" I asked as I breathed heavily.

He was ruffling his chocolate brown hair like crazy as he thought of his next words.

"I'm telling you that we can't do this anymore" he finally said as I gasped for more air. It was like the whole world was crashing down onto me. The tears I was trying to held back finally showed up and sprang like rain.

"Tell me" I managed to say between my sobs. 

"What does she have that I don't?" I asked. My breathing was heavy and I felt like I was about to have a heart attack. I bet my heart is now black due to my crying.

"It's not what she has, Kate" he breathed softly before adding, "It's who you are"

I suddenly felt a pang of pain inside of me. It's like my heart is being stabbed multiple times by a dagger.

"Sofie and I are completely the same, James!" I exclaimed as I clung onto his arm. His dark brown eyes looked away from me as I continued to sob. His eyes was focusing on the floor.

"No, you're not, the two of you are completely different" he said, his eyes still on the floor, and even I have to admit it, he's a completely good-loooking actor.

I stopped clinging on his arm as I gazed at him. He took slow strides away from me. He didn't even bother to look back. I was now there, draped on the cold concrete floor. My make-up was smuged due to my unstoppable crying.

"And CUT!!!" yelled the director as one of the stage workers helped me up. I muttered a 'thanks' to him before I went up to Lockwood, our director. As I was walking towards him, I already noticed Denver, the guy who played James, was already there with Lockwood.

Wow! He sure moves fast.

"How was it?" I asked Lockwood as his assistant gave me a cup of cranberry juice instead of a cup coffee. I'm glad they remembered my problem with coffee.

There was this weird myth that coffee can stunt your growth. Of course, it was proven false. But I decided to stay away from coffee, you know, just in case.

"It was good, nice acting, Cara" said Lockwood as his eyes were fixed on the papers on his hands.

"Of course she's good" exclaimed Denver. "She's Cara Arrington" he said happily as I smiled at his undeniable happiness.

Denver James Underhill, more commonly known just as 'Denver Underhill' was one of the world's renowned celebrities. Not only because of his acting, but also because of his looks. His chocolate brown hair was always ruffled and it made every girl in the world want more of him. His dark brown eyes makes you feel like he's looking into your soul. That is, of course, according to 'Fame', a famous magazine about famous people.

"Yeah, I'm definitely Cara Arrington" I said as I agreed on the compliment Denver gave me. 

Denver chuckled as he ruffled my now-messy-and-ugly hair.

"Woah" I said as I managed to slap Denver's hand away from my oh-so-gorgeous hair.

"This is a girl's hair we're talking about, Denver" I said as I tried my best to make it look better again. To my surprise he started laughing like a madman. 

"I think you should focus on your make-up and not your hair, Cara" he managed to say between his fits of laughter. 

"Blame yourself for breaking poor little Kate's heart" I said as I grabbed a tissue to wipe off some of the smudged make-up.
