Frank

I went through all the necessary procedures and gave out a sigh of relief after I stepped out of the airport. Things we do for love. I love my woman and I'm willing to do whatever makes her happy. She needs me with her? Why argue? I'm my own boss and will support my woman through her career. I checked through my phone for the location she sent me, flagged down a taxi and without beating the price, got on my journey to meet the future mother of my kids.

 

Ella

I watched her catwalk through the midst of upcoming artists without as much as a hello and came straight for where I was standing with the Director . I knew she was going to be here so I've sharpened my sword and decided to take on the job, unlike the past when I'll decline any role if she was going to be on the job too. My life shouldn't be placed on other people's sassy decisions. 

She got to us and hugged the Director who was smiling sheepishly at her.

"Welcome Trish. Didn't know you'll make it here today." He said

"You called and I answered." She replied in her fake British accent which she puts on anytime that I'm close

"Welcome. So now that both of you are here, I think this job will start tonight

. So go in, rest and you'll be given a signal once we're ready."

"Alright D. But what about the lead actors?" I asked innocently

"Psst. Some timid people though. Common sense is not common after all." Tricia said, checking her nails for something I don't even know

I ignored her and focused on the director who gave me an apologetic smile.

"They're not important till tomorrow dear." He replied

"Okay then. I'll see you later and yes, before I forget, Frank is on his way." I said with a smile

"Really? I've not seen him in months. I'm going to enjoy this camp then." The director joked and I smiled, watching the confusion on Tricia's face and I left them.

Its fine that she was in the industry before me but its not fine if she carries herself like some goddess. I'll give her whatever she gives me, but that'll be after I've done a background check on the people who'll be joining us on set.

I got to my room and noticed that my PA, Chika was already in and bringing out my stuffs from the box

"Finally, the queen decided to grace us with her presence." I said, bolting the door

"Good evening Ella. I'm so sorry about the Nnewi job. I......."

"Chika, you should know by now that I don't keep scripts in my house. Why do you always forget? Anyways, any message for me?"

"Yes Ella. Mr Micheal is still waiting for a DM. Should I reply or block?"

"I think he'll be coming here tomorrow. He's on this job so ignore it for now. I'll love to shower now and I've already booked a room for you. My fiance is on his way."

"Alright Ella."

 

Frank

I looked around and boy, was I impressed? I am. This place is really for the big boys and girls in the industry. I'm proud my woman has made it to this point. I was about stepping into the reception when a tall, ebony thick lady crashed into me. She has this heavy make up on her face and I let out a smirk when I recognized the face. Who wouldn't know Tricia Ibrahim? Is she in same movie with Ella or in another? She stared at me for a while before straightening up and putting on a smile

"Hello. Sorry I wasn't paying attention." She said in an accent that sounded British but, whatever.

"It's okay." I replied, trying to walk past

"Sorry, I'm Tricia Ibrahim and you don't seem familiar. I'm sorry but are you here for a job?"

Hell! What is this?

"No. I'm not. Just here for pleasure." I said, trying my best not to snap at her

"I see then." She trailed a finger up my chest and ran it up to my beard. "I'm in room 402, I hope to see you tonight then." She said and made to leave but I pulled her back. I hate this woman already.

"Tricia Ibrahim, sorry but I'm taken. Hope to see more of you while I'm here though." And I walked out without sparing her another glance
