Melodies of the Past

The Coffee Date

Kiara's POV:

I was pretty shocked to have heard a coffee date proposition by my boss slash employer slash director. And believe me, this shit was embarrassing to say the least because to even acknowledge let alone to either barely speak with one of your Co stars was a hella risky thing. But I don't think my director was quite  introvert to his words as he was pretty straight forward as to asking me out for a break after the stressed audition at the studio.

So here I am, walking down the streets of California with the most famous and most handsome man in the world and I have absolutely no fucking problem with that. People can sometimes screw themselves when thinking about us and how we appear in public. But like I said I was pretty shy and I had my head down and my hair forward to hide my blushing face, as I could feel Andrew's eyes anchoring themselves into the side of my head as I held my head away from his face. He thought that it might be good to ask me what's going on in my little dumbass worried head. But it wasn't a good idea because I knew that he would get a vague answer. But then again, don't knock it till you try it!

"So, you excited? For the movie?" Andrew asked me as if I was a little kid in the lost world. That I had no other choice but to lift my head up to stare into those green eyes that haunt me almost every night.

"After the audition, to be honest, I don't want to keep high hopes because you never know it might backfire pretty badly and it can pretty much ruin you in seconds." I said, in deep thought. Hey, call me crazy and an emo person but I can't help it. I've been let down by alot of people a lot of times and this has pretty messed up my thoughts about having anything good in life.

" Hey don't say that! You will get the part. Personally, I think that Selena would suit you because when I read the character description after I met you, I think you had the capability to knock people off of their seats with their performance." He says, reassuringly and that somehow sets a good mood on my face, as a smile starts to grow but stops when I recall his last words and a frown grows on my face." What does he mean I will knock people off if their seats? I mean I'm not even an actress and he thinks so highly of me....

" But how do you know I will knock people off of their seats? I mean I'm not even talented and special and I don't think this is my field of activity that I really wanted to do. I've never even accomplished anything in life yet here I am! Trying out for something that will never land in my hands." I finished hanging my head down and controlling my tears of disappointment for myself. I never felt for myself this way even when my parents passed away. Damn you Jeffrey!

But yet again, my train of thoughts stopped when I felt a hand on my chin, pulling my face up until I'm staring at my handsome director, who had a worried look on his face. He probably saw the unshed tears that dried up and left my eyes a bit crusty. Which is what I really admire about him. He just doesn't look at a pretty face, he looks into something deeper, something that can give someone hope. Hope to achieve something good in the future. It was only because of him that I made my mind of joining this industry for a trial that would finally at some point change my life. Then he says something that makes my heart stop:

"I just don't know about it.... I feel it within you. You know these girls are Michael's and Janina's choice. But you, mi preciosa, are my best name in this whole group. And do you want to know why?" He asks, to which I shake my head with my eyebrows furrowed that he smoothens out with his pointer finger. "It's because Eres la persona más importante en mi vida, mi preciosa. Y nunca te dejaría ir en mil años..." He says the last sentence in Spanish. Shit! If only I knew this language. God damn it!

"What? I don't understand what you said.." I said shaking my head while giggling. But he just shook his head and said, "I just told you that you are the most talented girl I have ever met. And that nobody can compare to you." At that, my cheeks started to redden, to which Andrew just softly chuckled and held my hand as we walked side by side. Even though I know tat there was another meaning to it, I shoved that thought aside and continued my peaceful and comfortably silent walk with the man who has stolen every ounce of my heart and soul.
