Watching the film progression
“So, what do you think of the two of them?” Sarah Lee asked Rio. They were both standing and watching the different screens with scenes of Yuri and Valentina acting together.
“The taller one is not bad.” Rio commented. His eyes were on the taller of the two girls and curled in amusement as she spun the other girl around causing her to blush. Suddenly she continued spinning her like a tornado until they both got dizzy and fell to the ground laughing. Her green eyes were hidden as she laughed and hugged the other girl before pressing a quick kiss to her cheeks.
An outsider would think that they had been best friends forever rather than two people who met for the first time a couple hours ago. And even more amazing was the fact that one actress was simply dancing to the tune of another without noticing it. He had been observing the two and noticed that Yuri had not been happy with Valentina. When they had started filming, Yuri was intentionally stiff and cold, making the scene look awkward. It was Valentina’s different actions that had drawn the girl out and allowed them to film the current interaction they were seeing now.
That was what impressed him the most. Although her beauty was unique, even among the broad span of people he had encountered in his career, her atmosphere drew him even more. Afterall, he had seen all types of pretty faces in his career and was used to people trying to use that beauty to gain his favor in one way or another.
He felt that she was different though and hadn’t tried to use her beauty to win favor or special treatment. Her manner was respectful but distant, as if she wanted no entanglement. She honestly seemed as if she had never been truly impressed with meeting Yuri, Shawn, or anyone else her.
Well maybe she was a bit impressed with him. Afterall, she seemed to have tripped when their eyes met. It was almost as if she had literally fallen for him, but after that she had completely disregarded his existence and was playing her part properly. She had even grumbled at him when he had saved her from face planting. Since he was used to people especially women flattering him, meeting someone who seemed annoyed and indifferent was an interesting take. It made him want to tease her, just a bit.
“It seems even you are impressed with her.” Sarah Lee responded, “she came highly recommended from Director Cranston.”
“Hmm.” Was Rio’s only response.
Sarah Lee glanced at the enigmatic man standing next to her. He was tall and handsome and dressed as he was now, he would absolutely seduce any woman who saw him. As the lead for a band that consistently topped the charts and swept the award shows, she had expected him to have an ego and be spoiled but he was the complete opposite. He tended to be quiet, had no rumors around him, and kept to himself. He mainly focused on music and didn’t really care about the money or the fame. There was a rumor that he was from a top aristocratic family, and she wondered if it was true. After all, the number of resources he got from the agency was crazy, even for someone as talented as him.
“Well as interesting as it is, it’s time for you and Shawn to make an entrance. I’ll go prepare the things ready for the battle scenario.”
“Got it.” Rio replied then walked off.
Both Rio and Shawn quickly joined the set and Valentina became a bit nervous. She wasn’t sure how she was supposed to interact with them. Thankfully, they just lounged around watching both her and Yuri for a little bit before Rio pulled out 2 chess boards for them to play.
Rio gestured for her to sit and play, and the background faded away as she paid attention to the game between them.
In the background, Shawn and Yuri began to interact more and more. The two seemed to get closer and had some couple scenes while Rio and Valentina watched.
Rio seamlessly portrayed the image of watching a person he loved from afar being in love with someone else. There were scenes where Rio tried to break in and have some time with Yuri, but she always went back to Shawn.
It all cumulated to Rio and Yuri having a confession scene where he took Yuri aside a long and confessed to her. In the end, she declined and ran away while Valentina approached Rio and put a gentle arm around his waist. He leaned in and hugged her lightly while she reached up and patted his hair. They stayed locked in like that for a moment before he left.
“Cut!” a voice yelled out and the scene was over. Valentina quickly separated from Rio after hearing the director’s voice. She turned to and respectfully bowed to him before paying attention to the directors’ words.
“Let’s break for lunch before continuing.” Sarah Lee shouted.
Relieved at being given a break, Valentina rubbed her aching neck in relief. Although she hadn’t said any lines, she had been feeling uncomfortable due to the tension while filming.
The four of them slowly approached Sarah Lee with Shawn and Rio taking the lead while Valentina and Yuri trailed them. The two men chatted with each other while Yuri and Valentina trailed them in silence. When they reached the location where Sarah Lee was standing, she smiled broadly and congratulated them.
“Good job all of you. I’m very satisfied with the scenes we’ve captured so far. I’ll take you to café so you all can eat some lunch and get some rest before continuing to film.”
“Mm.”
“Okay.”
“Yes!”
Rio, Shaw, and Yuri all responded while Valentina nodded in agreement. They all followed Sarah and began walking and she watched Yuri approach Rio and start chatting him up.
“Uhm, senior what do you think about the filming so far? I was a bit nervous about my role, but I think I’m doing pretty well right? Senior is obviously doing amazing. Do you have any pointers?” Yuri asked in a cute upbeat tone. As she walked beside Rio, Valentina thought that they made a good pair. One was tall and dark, while the other one was dainty and pure. The contrast was probably what they were going for.
Yuri continued chattering to Rio and Valentina while Shawn strode ahead even faster.
Suddenly Valentina was several feet behind the group.
She paused while they continued walking and bent down to remove her heels.
Although she was somehow able to make it work during filming, it was unbearable to keep wearing them! It was bad enough that her head ached, but if she was expected to wear these shoes all day, she just couldn’t do it! She couldn’t walk fast, and she didn’t want to trip again before she would be accused of intentionally falling for attention.
Valentina meant to quickly remove the shoes and catch up, but the straps were more complicated than they looked and were tied tightly. She ended up struggling to unravel the ribbons tightly wrapped around her legs.
Valentina wasn’t sure why it was happening, but it felt as if the ribbons were tightening around her legs instead of becoming looser. Just when she was getting frustrated and was going to suck it up and give up, a cool hand touched her leg causing her to look up.
