You Will Forever Be My Always - Chapter 15 (Riku's P.O.V)

“Miss Aia, I am so sorry that filming is taking a long time.” Director Reo said.

“Oh no, it’s okay. I don’t mind at all.” Aia smiled. They continued talk for a bit and ended their conversation to get the cast ready for another shoot. I looked through my script and read through my lines and saw someone’s shadow covering my book.

“Yes?” I said looking up.

“Are you ready to shoot the scene again?” Director Reo asked.

“I guess so.” I said and walked off to the set.

I sat in my spot waiting reading my script and Sun Hee talking to Aia. I started to wonder what they were talking about from curiosity and the fact that Sun Hee always causes trouble everywhere she goes. I was watching them talk and judging on the looks on both of their faces Sun Hee was complaining to Aia about the character developments and that’s when Aia went off and Sun Hee stormed away. Nothing never gets done when Sun Hee acts like that. I looked at Aia and saw her looking a bit upset and that’s when I went over to check on her.

“Aia are you okay?” I asked putting my script away.

“Yeah, I’m fine.” She said and walked where the director was. I watched her walk away and looked down.

“Alright everybody! It’s time to shoot this scene one last time then we’ll call it quits.” Director Reo said through a megaphone while everyone rushed to get into their places. We were shooting the kissing scene where the female lead was running out of time and the male lead who was her best friend revealed his feelings for her with a kiss. We were close to the kissing part and we quickly changed people, so I wouldn’t have to do that kiss. I went to go stand by Aia and watched the rest of the scene before they yelled cut.

“You know this novel ain’t bad.” I whispered to her.

“You read my novel?!” She said with a shock.

“Of course I did. I had to read it first before I knew what I was putting myself through.” I stated. Aia started laughing and smiling again. I guess I said something right that made it not awkward at all.

“Thank you for reading my book.” She smiled.

“You’re welcome. I like to read a good book.” I smiled.

“Listen I know that you’re upset about what Sun Hee said about your characters, so therefore tonight dinner at home is on me.” I softly smiled.

“You can cook?!” She asked.

“Yes I can, I just never do cause I had no one to cook for, but now I have you.” I slightly blushed and saw her blushed and that’s when I instantly felt a heat wave wash up on me and excused myself from her and walked away.

Did I just really opened a bit up to her?! After so many years of keeping everyone out of my mind and heart, did I just let her in?! This is weird. What’s this weird tingly feeling inside me? I can’t tell if it’s good or bad. I kept thinking and talking to myself and tried to calm down the pacing in my chest. I took a deep breath in and out and kept repeating the steps to calm my nerves down. Well we do have to get closer and know each other more, but it’s now or never.
