Chapter 38
"Hey Zack... ain't you going to join me? or are you going to stand there and stare at me all day? I hope not. Come on, my tummy is so hungry I might just finish everything."
She dares not.
"why so silent..."
Damn she talks when she's really hungry. I should get out of here and get back with hope that she hasn't finished everything..
I came back seconds later and saw the tigress on her phone, she was busy with hitting the keys on her phone.
" oh my word....", I heard her gasp..
"what the matter?", I asked.
She looked at me with a horrid look on her face. "You might not want to see this."
"Will you tell me what the matter is?"
" it's my sister..."
" Tasha... yeah so, what about her?"

. " And what the matter with you?"
" Nothing... I just feel..."
" Different, I Know the feeling, yeah, she got to star in a new show. So, what does that got to do with you? obviously nothing, you are just stressing yourself for nothing Guan. Really, pretend like you didn't see it if that the case."
" I can't just simply over this..."
" Why?"
" I don't know..."
" Look it every easy, why not just focus on your food."

CONT'D:
"You really want me to just forget about this? well I can try but to be real. I can't believe it."
"And why can't you believe it... is it bad that's she finally gets to appear on another show? well come off it. ", forks and spoon made clanging sounds as they ate.
"So when are we going to resume shooting?"
" I don't know, it depends on if I can get the materials that will be needed."
" What materiels?" , she took another spoonful of the tasty meatball. Like what materiels are you talking about?"
" Don't worry, you will find out soon enough when I get them."
" Really... you want to keep me in suspense.",
" It what I do best."
" Really... what you do Best."
" Just eat your food already."
" But I don't think I want to eat again.", Guan dropped the spoon. " I think I will go and rehearse Instead."
" No no on... don't even start with me, have your food."
Guan smiled and got up. " You are not the boss of me..."
" I am still your husband."
She rolled her eyeballs. " By contract.", And she left he the dinning.
" Great...she had to say that.",
"She's really a feisty one...", I heard my maiden say as she came to collect the left overs.
"Yes yes... but I will get use to her soon. The only issue I have with her Is when she keeps reminding me that everything between us is nothing but a contract."
"Isn't everything between you two a contract."
"Well...I don't be think so, I don't even want it to end because she's like the only girl I have really come this close with so far "
"I know, I can see it all in your eyes but you have to be careful about her though. Not all girls appears to be who they turn out to be."
,"I know... I will handle it.", Zack uttered. "I just hope nothing terrible happens again. ".
"I have just had enough of series of crisis on my head"
" You will get through it boss, it just a matter of patience."
" A matter of patience you say. Well I believe I can manage and cope for a while , but till then , I have gotta be what I have gotta be and that's what my team is going to need for the next shooting."

Elsewhere;
Bushon Restaurant.
" I'm so glad you could join us.", the man Tasha met from earlier uttered with joy in his words. " I'm glad you accepted to take part in the shooting. My boss nearly lost hope that you wouldn't join the team for"
Tasha smiled.. " Now why would I refuse. " I went online, did some research and I'm really grateful that you guys could reach out to me..."
" Yes yes..." the man uttered.
" But when do I get to meet your boss."
" Mr. Rodgers is really much of a busy man, I don't know how much time he will have to spend with you but I will try to get in touch with him , the last we spoke was yesterday and today after you accepted. Since then, he had gone offline."
" Wow ...he must really be busy."
" He his very busy, I don't even know where to start, from building a successful empire to hitting successful movie productions. You my girl will be is biggest hit, you will be the star of his show."
" Wow ...I can't believe this "
" Being the start makes you the topic. Have you seen the news?"
" Ugh."
The man frowned. " You really need to be checking your newsfeed a lot. I don't know how you do it anyway."
"I'm really sorry about that... I'm just never a fan of the news feed if I'am not included in the topic."
" Well that's the main thing now isn't it. You're the main thing in the news feed now. So why not check it out."
Tasha did as instructed, she was amazed. She was really the talk of the town. Her name was a literally everywhere. This is quite more than she bargain but who cares, she was literally on the front cover with top stories blaring out her name.
Her heart was full of joy when she saw this, she coul almost screen because of this but she maintained her cool. "This is epic...I haven't even started shooting the film to start with."
"You don't really need to worry about all that, we can tomorrow if you want or maybe during the weekends."
"During the weekends will just fine "
