Wendy

I grabbed a slice of bread which is on the plate from the table and I took a bite before going to the coffee machine to get my cup of coffee, I took my seat which my name is written down and I took a sip of it. I immediately pulled away from it as it scalded my tongue, it left a weird sensation that I couldn't describe and it isn't a good thing. It means that I couldn't taste anything much for the rest of the day and I was hoping for good food to be on the filming set today.

"This is what happens when you totally didn't set your alarm." Irene comes to the table with a glass of milk, she is in her office work attire and she clearly looks more awake than I do. My hair is still so messy as I didn't even have time to wash my hair. "Luckily I was around to wake you up or you will definitely get a scolding from the director and the others."

I ate my slice of bread. "Well, thanks for only waking me up 10 minutes before I have to get out of the house," I said to her sarcastically.

"Anyways, I will be coming over when I am free and I will be supporting you all the way. The others also think that way and we hope that Jung SooJung will definitely disappoint everyone with her poor acting skills, she obviously got the role just because she is pretty." She grabbed her bag from the counter. "Talk to you later, I have a big presentation to present today."

I gave her a huge wave as she closes the door and I continued eating my slice and added ice cubes into my cup of coffee so that I can drink it in one go and not scald my poor tongue once again, once is already enough for me not able to taste anything. I arrived at the studio where they are supposed to shoot the first scene, it is a scene that I am afraid of, it is all the action scenes filmed in a green screen studio.

I had heard from people that screens filmed in green screens required a lot of time and effort and often you would have to do the same scene over and over to obtain the designated result then a lot of editing would be done in post-production making the action even more realistic if it wasn't realistic enough. The only good thing about studios is that there is no issue with the weather as it is indoors and there is no way of knowing if it is day or night as there are no windows.

There were a lot of people in here and I had to swerve around in order not to get pushed to one side by any crew member, I greeted them along the way as I made my way to the director who is sitting down in his seat looking over one copy of the script and I announced my arrival to him only to get rejected by him.

"Who are you again??" He asked and looked at me from top to bottom. "If you are the crew, please make your way towards your respective departments. Don't come all the way here if you have nothing better to do."

He had forgotten how I looked like and my role as a scriptwriter for this particular drama, he wouldn't be here if I hadn't written the script. I guess that I wasn't very impressionable to make him remember me as a person, as a fellow scriptwriter. "Director Kim, I'm the scriptwriter, Wendy Son." I reminded him and gave him the brightest smile that I can give him.

"Don't you remember her?? She was the scriptwriter and Bang PD nim praised her for writing such a great script for J-Hope ssi." Jung SooJung came over to my side wearing some clothing that I bet costed more than my entire wardrobe combined.

"Wendy Son?? Ah, that Wendy Son!!" He immediately changed his tone and he looked at me. "I'm sorry for not recognizing you." He apologized to me when I know that he has been forced to, he only remembers all the beautiful people and I am already a potato, to begin with. Nobody remembers a potato easily since they all looked alike, average looking potatoes.

I faked a laugh. "It's okay, people have told me that I am not so impressionable at first sight, it would be better after a few times." Why is she even doing here?? Bootlicking the director to give you more lines?? That's my job whether to give you more screentime or to make you a side character that no one remembers.

"Miss Son, nice to meet you. So this is the set, you should know where is where so make yourself at home. We will start shooting at 9 am sharp so be here by then, you are free to explore the other areas of the set."

I slightly nodded and I felt someone linking my arm, it was Jung SooJung with the fakest smile that I have seen on her face. "Let go of me," I told her. "We aren't friends anymore."

"I know but do you have a minute?? I have something to tell you." She tried to pull me away from everyone else.

"Say it here." I insisted. "Unless you have some secret that none of the people should know about."

"Please, it is only for a minute and I promise not to bother you for the rest of the day." She pulled me to one corner where I saw Hoseok ssi coming out of his room looking smart and professional. Is she going to kill me right here?? There isn't a police officer around and this film set is so big that it would take hours to go from one end to the other.

I looked around my surroundings if there is an emergency exit or any hole that could fit a whole person in there and I sighed in disbelief where there isn't anything that I had hoped to find.
I am only 28 years old and I'm about to get murdered by my enemy, someone please save me from it. Anyone, Hoseok ssi, the cleaning lady, the director, the cameramen, the assistant director... Please, anyone who can rush here as soon as I scream.

She kneeled down. "Wendy, I'm sorry for what I have done to you in college. I'm very sorry for stealing him from you."
