Later that night... Diana is currently standing infront of a tall building where Venice, her cousin, works. She just received her salary today, and she thought of inviting Venice to dine out with her tonight... "Hmm... Is she working overtime again?" she wondered to herself. She was about to call her cousin through the mobile phone when someone called her name. "--- Diana? What are you doing here?" Venice instantly smiled when she saw her cousin. "Well, I just got my salary, and I was thinking of inviting you to dinner, and enjoy a glass of beer..." Diana replied. Venice stared at her cousin, while looking a little bit skeptical. "Why? Is there any special occasion?" she asks, while trying to be cautious. Diana rolled her eyes heavenward after hearing her cousin. "Well, there's no special occasion but, I just want to have a Girl's Night Out with you! Is that a crime already?" she cajoled, just thinking how paranoid her cousin is. "Since it's your treat, I won't say no to y
The next day. Audrey was the first one to come to the office. She went straight to Venice's desk because she needs to drop by some documents for her to proofread. A certain black USB caught her attention. It was just lying on Venice's desk... One idea suddenly came to her mind. She looked around the office, and once she made sure that nobody's around, she picked up the USB and hid it in her pocket... She then walked straight to her private office as if nothing happened... And once she sat down on her desk, she quickly plugged the USB on her laptop's portal, and she looked at the files one by one. She opened a folder which is titled "Manuscript Folder" and read its contents... Audrey suddenly got interested with one of the scripts there... ====================== After a few days... Venice took a deep breath before she knocks at the door of her Boss' private office. "Come in!" she heard her voice. Venice immediately opened the door and went inside the office. "Please take a s
Meanwhile. Dane Levi was driving to MBN building because he had to show up at their Talent Agency twice a week. Once he parked his car, his mobilephone rang just in time. "What is it this time, Adam?" he asked his Manager immediately. "Are you already at the MBN Building?" Adam asked from the other line. "Don't worry, I'm already at the MBN parking lot. And I have no plans to run away like I did before." Dane sarcastically responded. "It's good then. I'm on my way now. I'll see you later." Adam replied. Once their conversation ended, Dane got out of his car... At the same time... "Why did you steal my manuscript, Miss Audrey? Why are you pretending that you're the original writer of the script?" Venice finally found the courage to ask her those questions. "I don't know what you're saying. You're accusing me of stealing your script? And why would I do that? Do you have any evidence to prove that I stole it from you? Be careful of your words, Venice, or else I might sue you!"
The next day. Venice was busy collecting her things from her work desk, and she's putting them all inside the cardboard box. She has to hurry because she doesn't want anyone to see her. "What a surprise." one snooty voice made Venice glance back. She saw Miss Audrey looking at her with a bitchy look. Venice bravely stared back at her. She's not going to back out now. She has to face her and teach her a lesson somehow... "Looks like you're going to resign. I'm glad you've finally come to your senses..." the old woman sarcastically spat out. "You're right. I've finally come to my senses. And I think this is the best decision I ever made in my whole life. By the way, I already put my resignation letter on your desk." Venice boldly replied. "Oh, well. You can be easily replaced. I won't have a hard time looking for another Assistant." Audrey continued on being a bitch. "Goodluck on that." Venice said, in a matter-of-factly tone. "Well, goodluck on your career. If you still have
Evening quickly came. And as usual, Venice is still infront of her laptop, finishing all the tasks that Boss Audrey asks her to do. "Someone should give you a loyalty award, Venice. Eventhough that witch chose her own niece to become the company's representative for the writing competition even if your way much better than her, here you are---still being loyal to that old woman!" Lara did a side comment. Venice smiled when noticed her friend all dressed and glammed up. She's definetely going for another date again... "Well, I think you should be given a loyalty award as well. You and Brent have been together for 4 years together, and you're still going strong as ever!" she said, as she tries changing the topic. Lara's eyes sparkled when she heard her long-time boyfriend's name. "You're right. I can't believe that this is the longest relationship that I have in my whole life. I think he's really "The One!" she gushed at her. "And I'm so happy for you, my friend!" Venice excited
Venice entered the lobby of Starbright Movie Production where she will have a meeting with the CEO of the company and the Director who will be talking with her regarding the new movie project that is based on her manuscript. Few minutes later, she's already making her way to the CEO Private Office... Venice's whole body is shaking with excitement. Once they entered the Conference Room, she was warmly welcomed by Mr. Thomas Lee, the CEO of Brightstar Production... "Thank you so much for accepting our offer, Venice. You will never regret your decision." the company President said, in a kind manner. "Thank you so much for giving me a chance, sir." Venice politely replied. "Sit down first and let's talk about the small details while our others aren't here yet... By the way, can I offer you anything like coffee, tea or soda?" the man asked again. "Just water, please. Thank you." After a few minutes, they are already discussing the plans for their movie project. Venice can't help h
"We need to shoot most of the scenes at Walnut Creek, Gramps." Venice explained. "But can you do it? Going back there will remind you of that man...'' her Grandpa cautiously said. "It happened ages ago, Gramps. I won't be affected by it anymore." Venice was quick to answer. But deep inside her heart, she scared and anxious of what will happen once she steps foot at Walnut Creek... She would return to that place where she experienced being inlove for the first time... And that's where she also experienced her first heartbreak... ====================================== "Hey, Warren..." Warren Grant stopped eating his breakfast when his Manager and bestfriend, Daniel, greeted him. "Morning, Dan." Warren greeted him. "Ready for the first day of shooting?" Daniel asked, as he sat down in a nearby chair. "Of course." Warren replied, as he took a sip from his coffee cup. "By the way, have you read the new news about your rival in showbiz?" Daniel suddenly asked him. "You
At the same time... Although tired, Venice was happy with the outcome of their second day of shooting. Nothing went wrong and he was excited to finish shooting the remaining eight episodes of their television series... She feels a bit sad because they'll be leaving Walnut Creek in a few days. She will miss a lot of things in this hometown, once they go back to the big city. But she promised herself that she will come back again in the near future... "Venice..." She stopped on her tracks when she heard that familiar voice. It was the voice that she will never, ever forget And just like what she thought, it was none other than Warren Grant. Her childhood friend and her first love. "Venice, can we talk?" Warren pleaded at her. Venice stared at him. No one would ever believe that Warren Grant, one of the famous actors in the country today, was her childhood sweetheart... ========================== "What is Warren Grant doing here?" Dane asked himself, while looking shock
