GUN'S POV

I finally had my invites ready for the opening of my coffee shop and I was contacting my friends if I could drop by their places and hand them the invites or at least leave it at their places... 


I left after lunch and decided to head to the coffee shop first before dropping the invites to my friends, everything is all set... I felt happy, finally the hard days back then are worth it. I left some instructions to the staff that was fixing the interior and decided to start delivering the invites. I could just send them through a courier but I wanna make sure that it will arrive to them, I won't be inviting a lot for the opening anyway plus I'd also be posting on social media for those who wants to go. 


I was almost done delivering the invite and Off is the last one in the list, he wasn't supposed to be last but he was in a meeting a while ago and he just got back home a few minutes ago... I messaged him that I was already at the lobby when he called the lobbyist to tell me to go up to his unit. I was confused with that because I told him I was just dropping off the invite and I do not intend to stay, it's getting late.


"Off?" I said when I knocked at his door

"Gun come inside, the door is open" Off yelled from inside


I went inside and realized he was inside the shower... Oh... 


"Off I just went here to drop off the invite, I'll just leave it here on the table?" I asked

"No, wait for me, I ordered some food, have dinner here" He said again


I sat down on his sofa and waited for him to finish taking a shower. I didn't want to have dinner here but Pim messaged me that she won't also be having dinner at home plus I'd be stuck in traffic and I wouldn't probably find a decent restaurant to eat at. 


"Let's just wait for the food, I asked for it to be delivered" Off said as he walked out of the bathroom. 

"Yeah, here's the invite" I said as I handed him the small envelope

"I'm so excited! I'm proud Gun" He said as his phone rang


He went downstairs to pick up the food he ordered for us and I patiently waited for him... We had dinner and he was awfully quiet and I could tell he is either stressed or something is bothering him...


"Hey, if something is bothering you, you can tell me too" I said

"It's just stuff... or maybe everything... I don't know, you're already dealing with stuff I don't wanna burden you" He said as he took a tub of ice cream from the fridge

"I'm willing to listen" I said


He was silent for a little while until he gave me a spoon and finally started talking...


"I didn't came back to the acting industry because I want to... I'm just really scared of a lot stuff lately... like anxiety... I don't know, all the uncertainties are getting to me. I came back to the industry because it was easy money, I felt like I was not being a good son to my mom when I cut down on the money I share with her... Acting is easy money, you get paid every project you make." He said and paused for a while
