Yuan Zi's pov :
We stepped into the agency building just as the noon sun flared against the glass doors behind us. I barely glance back Zhenya was still following, though from from the way she clutched her tote bag and looked around like she wandered into wrong universe.
I could tell she was much in her head.
I sank into the leather sofa with a practical sigh. Zhenya hesitate some moment before sitting beside me. I glance sideways her cheek still slightly flushed, probably from running to keep up with me .
I lifted the script. The title stared back at me bold and clean. The director's name sat just below it .
My chest tightened with quiet satisfaction.
Finally!
I waited for This chance since I was twenty. I knew this director didn't pick actors lightly. I flipped the first page open , already feeling the character's tugging at me .
Beside me , Zhenya peeked over at the script.
"You have been grinning since we walk in " ,
She murmured .
"I'm not grinning " , I said smoothly . I'm glowing . There is a difference .
I lean back, letting the script rest on my lap.
"Welcome to the madness Zhenya"
She shook her head with a groan ,
"I'm updating my resume after this"
I grinned
" Make sure you list ' handling difficult actors with grace'. You're gonna need it.
She rolled her eyes. Her lips twisted just little.
And this, this was just beginning.
