  Victoria's POV

  *Beep beep beep

  "Ugh! Not now! Now this early!!" I groaned as I picked up my phone that was already ringing for nth time.

  "What is it that you have to ruin my beauty sleep, Bob?" I groaned at the other line.

  "WHAT DO YOU MEAN 'WHAT' ?! TODAY IS YOUR SCRIPT READING WITH THE OTHER CASTS OF THE MOVIE,VICTORIA!" I squinted my eyesand covered my left ear as Robert, my manager, had shouted back at me. Wait.... 'Script Reading'....? Oh shit.

  "Goodness, Bob! Why did you only remind me that now?!" I screamed as I put my phone on speaker while running my way to the bathroom.

  "I've been calling you for the last 30 minutes. Yeah, go ahead and blame, woman." Sarcasm was heard in his tone. This is why I hate men.

  "Pick me up in 30 minutes. I'm gonna take a shower." I said as I turned on my shower, undressing myself. "Be there in 20." He said ang hung up.

  Shit. I took a bath shorter than I anticipated. Got out of the bathroom and picked a high-waisted black jeans and a peach semi crop-top shirt as to what I would wear for the day. I put on a light make-up when my phone rang again. Shit.

  "Yeah. I'm heading down already." I said while closing my apartment's door.

  "For a female lead to be late in her first day of work will surely leave abad impression on the movie's crew." He scoffed while i was waiting for the lift.

  "Is that really how a manager talks to his actress?" I raised my eyebrow as if he could see me.

  "Hurry up, young lady." He retorted and ended the call. Wow. Just wow...

  -----

  "Dont blame me if Director Rich snaps at yoy for the rest of the shooting just beacause you were late today," he approached me as I make my way for the car's door. "Dont make my day worse, Bob," I rolled my eyes as I fastened my seatbelt. "Unfortunately, your day has just barely started, Tori," I ignored his smirk and just put my attention on the road.

  -----

  "Well, well, well. If it isnt our female lead. You sure made a grand late entrance, Reeves." Director Rich made sure to emphasize the word 'late'. I just faked a smile and sat on my reserved seat, Bob following me.

  Reading my lines and making sure that nothing in the script will make my perfect image ruin, I scanned the room and my eyes ended on the male lead, my 'partner'.

  Harry Smith, an actor who just started his career 2 years ago but immediately having his own movie. He sure does fume with talent and looks. Jet black hair that covers most of his forehead, long eyelashes that brushes off to his upper cheeks, well- defined jaw, a piercing in his left ear, and pinkish lips.

  I shook my head as I realized I was staring at him long lastedly. I continued to read my script and planned to finish this meeting already.

  -----

  "Okay everyone, I guess this is all we have to do today. Good luck to us all." The Director cheered on us as we applauded. "And next time, Reeves. I do not look forward seeing your 'grand entrance', so be early, okay??" He added as he made his way closer to me. "You can guarantee about that, Richard." I said, emphasizing his full name which he hated.

  He rolled his eyes on me. If I hated men, I hated this gay more than ever.

  "See, I told you so," Bob said, popping outta nowhere. "Way to start with this freakin' movie," I muttered as I grabbed my bag when-----

  "Does anyone wanna go for drink?" I looked to see Mr. Smith, looking back at me.

  "I think I'll pass on that one"

  "Yeah me, too"

  "Not really a good drinker here"

  Everyone declines his offer as they felt that the invitation was only for me.

  "My wife is waiting for me at home so I think I'll pass as well. Youre free, aren't you Tori?" Bob pointed out, making me groan internally.

  "So that just leaves the two of us, doesnt it Ms. Reeves?" Harry Smith smiled that only irtitated me. "I do guess having a drink or two wont hurt," I responded while putting up my acting face. "Lets head out to my car, then." He said and made our way out of the room

  Great. Just freakin' GREAT!
