it was the first day of filming. and oh my god i was exhausted. the retakes of every scene, the stress of being perfect, but still messing up. the frustration clearly evident in bright's facial features, i knew today wasn't a good day.

after we finally got everything right, we wrapped up and changed out of costume.

i was so nervous today, and i didn't know why.

"hey kid," the director patted my shoulder, "it's completely normal to mess up on your first day. don't stress yourself." he reassured, walking off to his car, as everyone headed home for the day.

i felt discouraged. this can't be normal. it took 17 shots of the same scene for me to focus. i need to practice more.

i ran out of the building and to my car, it was pouring down rain outside. perfect.

i opened my car door and quickly shut it, trying not to flood my car with the cold water. i checked my phone, and saw one unread message from..a groupchat?

i don't even recall being added to a group.

m: hey guys, me and a couple of my friends wanted to host a party. what's your schedules i'll see if i can match it with everyone else's.

b: how big of a party are we talking? i'm free everyday this week except wednesday. i have family business to attend to.

w: i'm free all week, i have to go apartment looking tomorrow morning though.

m: alright cool! i'll see you guys saturday night, be prepared for hot chicks and lots of booze.

b: aye aye captain✌🏾

i closed my phone, and began driving to the hotel i was staying in. i was able to retrieve most of my belongings before the other hotel threw them out. so now the only thing i've got left to do is find a place to stay.

the week went by quickly, today already being friday. i found out where win lives now, but i won't bother him just yet. not until tomorrow night. i know he likes me, it's pretty clear. so i'm going to drive him insane.

i called mike for the time and place, it's going to be at his friend's ohm's house. interesting.

i pull up to a large house, with tons of people dancing and drinking all around it. i parked next to a lot of other expensive cars, and walked towards the entrance. squeezing between people, mumbling small "scuse' me, sorry"s.

the house was big, the interior filled with loud music, laughter, and a strong smell of alcohol. i squinted my eyes, trying to find someone i know. where is mike?

i walked to the kitchen after 10 minutes of searching, and decided to just sit down and drink some water. i'm not a huge fan of drinking, the strong smell is repulsive.
