Chereads / NAN'S DREAM AND SECRET / Chapter 21 - WORRY

Chapter 21 - WORRY

After that incident on the next day, Nan figured out another way that has to be done. She forgot that being a director is not about the perfect orders or equipment or even an individual job, it is a teamwork. More importantly, the team requires a lot of people and it is the responsibility of the director to make all went in sync by distinct communication with each person in charge.

Firstly, Nan wants to fix the situation by making up with the assistant cameraman. She bought a coffee and apologized to him, wishing for their further work to be much better next time. That man accept the coffee and answered with a cold attitude, "sure, let's see what you can do." He left immediately. Nan feels alleviated at last.

That day the shooting is the day when Rum reveals his true face to Rin. University is where the shooting takes place. Today, there is one of the important scenes. Where people would recognize Rum's character and base conflict for Rum and Rin's further connections. Din who played as 'Rum' should deliver a mean-sadistic atmosphere. A handsome, mean, and sexy portrayal is what Nan expecting. The last time Din practice with Nan he was already good, but they are disturbed by Veo and Tap. So, Nan hasn't seen his recent progress. Not knowing how much Din improved until now, she was hoping Din would make a great performance.

Nan's Script Narration

Rin somehow figured out that Rum the guy at the cafe last time. He is actually a famous celebgram that Rin frequently saw in Instagram explores. Rum is famous for his charming and calm personality, the exact opposite of what Rin saw. Rum attends the same major as Rin as a freshman and Rum recognizes Rin as well. After the meeting at University's stadium, Rum catch while Rin was walking alone and take her to a private place. When they both alone, Rum cornered Rin to scare her. Rum got closer and Rin tries to push him away. Unfortunately, Rum successfully stirs her up, but Rin won't give up next time.

"Is she okay, now?" This is what has Din been questioning in his head. He's been foggy while holding his script when he's supposed to memorize the lines. Worrying about Nan has made him lose track of time. He shocked when Nan command to start the next shoot and he reads and memorized as soon as possible. Din knows this is an important scene. He's doing his scene by holding his script.

Din has a couple of NG ('not good' sign for retaking the shoot) for a difficult scene. It is okay to have an NG when there is a need for detail changes, but Din is making it more difficult because he hasn't memorized all his lines for this scene. Nan stopped the shooting and gave 10 minutes break. P'Min is furious because of Din. Nan saw P'Min coming to Din and lecture him. When P'Min done lecturing him, Nan and Din's eyes met. Nan put up a questioning expression to Din and he replied with an apologetic gesture.

Din looked disturbed by P'Min's lecture, but Nan let him be. It was part of this process. There is a lot of people and there are sometimes when people lose focus. It also happened to Nan a few days ago. P'Min just tries to get Din to get back on his track.

After 10 minutes break, Din made up to get better memorizing his lines. There is no problem with his acting. It was exactly as Nan expecting, the 'handsome, mean, and sexy' portrayal, dominant type. Din's acting skills have improved way better from last time. Even Nin who has a lot of experience looked startled by it.

The shooting that day ended with 'Rum' revealing his attitude. Nan thinks of Din who being scolded by P'Min while waiting for Veo to pick her up. On her way home, Nan called Din, "Hey, you alright?" and she asked him right away after the phone being picked up.

Then Din replied, "Are you worried about me?" Din teased with an unusually calm voice. "Seems your fine. Bye!" Nan is annoyed by his question and wanted to hang up.

"Waittt! Waitttt!!!" Din stopped her from hanging up.

"Once again you teased me, you'll die!" Nan threatens and Din teased her once again,

"Wow, so fierce!"

"Okay, bye!"

"Okay! Sorry!! Sorry, Okay?!" Din apologized for real and Nan still pouts.

"..."

"Where are you?"

"On my way home with Veo. Why?"

"Let's stop by to eat dinner together!"

"Where?"

"My house!"

"What?! Are you serious?" Nan still can't believe Din invited her to his house.

"Yeah, I'll order the food you can come here, with Veo of course,"

"Uh...Oh, alright!"

Din hangs up first. Then, Veo who heard the conversation said, "Wow, you're sweating. What are you thinking, Nan?"

"What?"

Veo raised his eyebrows and making up his goofy face.

"WHAT?! NO!! ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND??!!" Nan shouted to Veo.

"I didn't say anything! Seems like you imagine something wild. Well, it's fine that's perfectly normal! LOL" Veo had a good time teasing his best friend for falling in love.

Nan���s face is as red as a tomato. She didn't see this coming. They stopped by minimarkets to buy drinks and went straight to Din's home.
