The sweetest part is how I have my own private manager now.
She grinned thinking how wonderful it would be, It means the end of blackmailing her dream career no more unsettled agreement, no more unpaid checks from cheap commercial producers, no more unexpected terminations from directors, no more underestimations from nonexistent colleagues.
No more... No more... No more.
She smiled wildly picturing herself as the upcoming shining star in the filming industry and all thanks to him, Mr Karim Jalon.
She meets him at a friend's wedding dinner, they were both guests from the bride's side.
He had shown interest in her no other man had ever shown before.
Her passion.
He had shown interest in her immense passion in acting, which was wonderfully odd, since all the other's interest laid Beneath her striking beauty, her catchy features, and figure, no doubts she's aware of that already.
They will tell her how the glint in her eyes draws them to her like a magnet, whilst he told her how her ambition was admirable.
He had listened with a serious look on his face as she told him all her sad attempts to succeed in acting, how she had tried to get to the top ladder and failed miserably and at the end, it turns out he wasn't only a good listener but also a good soul.
he offered new opportunities, courage, hope, and the grand card big connections from the top.
And now I have my own private manager.
It reminds her of those big celebrities who are being hired by big company labels and signed multi-thousands worth contracts.
They have managers too!!
She self consciously touched her face to make sure she's not looking like some cheap zoo monkey with all the smiling and grinning.
'Men I have almost lost hope in you, I thought you were all untrustworthy' she whispered aloud.
'Meera! Meera! meera!
She snapped out of her reverie at the shouts of her name and sighed opening her dreamy eyes, it was her roommate Kura standing above her anxiously.
'what? 'she asked equally irritated as well, In answer, Kura just rolled her eyes turned and switch on the bulb.
'what? ' she inquired again rubbing the blurriness in her eyes to adjust to the sudden light.
'A man was here looking for you' she said emphasizing the word, Man. Kura had always thought of her as reckless, irresponsible and a disgrace to the women species.
She had once told how she wondered why she is not a dropout yet. 'Who was it' she replied certain it was something unimportant.
She wasn't expecting a call from any of the productions she has applied for these soon, actually, she hasn't gotten any job recently since six months ago after she got fired by a film director for not escorting him to a hotel room all her chances seized. it was her first real project, a reward for all the legal troubles she went through, all the unpopular commercials, modeling for some cheap fashion designer which mostly she left unpaid.
'Karim Jalo'
'huh.... 'that name send her attention back to Kura who regarded her queerly.
'what did you just said? '
Karim Jalon, her career savior.
Within a minute she was up fetching a veil.
'a messenger from Karim Jalon. Kura repeated, gave her a brown manilla envelope and left.
She quickly rips it impatiently, who knows it could be the ticket to her future, Maybe it is her multi-thousands dollar contract.
But as she opened the folded paper inside, she froze and stared blankly at the well-encrypted handwriting
Stormed and speechless.
She wasn't disturbed by the finest of the writing but the words it had written.
My Dear Meera,
Below is my guest house address, you can come over tomorrow anytime and we can discuss your contract after we warmed up I hope you will be as fulfilling as I assumed.
Mr. Karim Jalo
The message was as blunt and clear as the handwriting.
unbelievable.
She could feel the bile rising in her throat, so bitter and bulgy. And she wondered if she was or was not as naive as Kura thought of her.
He had proved himself worst than all of them.
