The Charm of the Director

The Charm of the Director
a good night kiss



Dean parked his car in the basement of his apartment. He was quiet for a moment to call Pedro.


"Before you know it from someone else, I'll tell you. You've been crossed out for the lead by the production house. I was thinking of defending you at first."


He heard the man laughing on the phone. "I can already guess."


Dean hung up on me. He kept his phone in his pocket and went back into silence. He looked at his watch. At 06 p.m. Jessy must have been waiting inside. He got out of the car and walked to the elevator. She doesn't want Jessy to know about her current problem. He did not want his wife involved.


When the elevator doors opened, he saw two couples talking to each other. Dean just shut up. He turned his back on them. Suddenly he remembered something. He turned his body back.


"Can I ask you guys?" ask Dean.


Those people are silent. They nodded.


"Do you like watching movies?" ask Dean.


"of course. We're going to the movies now."


"What movies do you like?"


"Action!" exclaim both men.


"Com!" exclaim both women.


Dean looked at the men. "What kind of action movies do you like right now?"


"We love the movie Blood."


"Who's the male lead?" ask Dean back.


"Tom Lewis's. But I don't think he's the main character. There is one character that makes many people divert their interest. They were attracted to a young actor named Louis McIntyre. Louis plays a psychopath. His acting is amazing." exclaimed one of the young men.


Dean smiled and patted the man on the shoulder. "It looks like you know a lot about movies"


"I'm learning to be an observer" he said.


The elevator door sounded. Dean looked. It seems he has arrived.


"All right, thanks for the information. I met someone who understands movies. See you later." he said as he walked out of the elevator.


He quickly contacted Harris.


"Can you check out a young actor named Louis McIntyre?"


"Who?" harris asked confusedly


"You just look for it. We'll meet tomorrow to talk about it" Dean said, turning off his phone. He is now in front of his apartment. He has not lived in his apartment for a long time. The apartment that witnessed his meeting with Jessy at that time. He pressed the button to unlock it.


He could only feel the smell of meat being roasted. It just so happens that he is very hungry. It turns out that Jessy actually made food for him. She heard Jessy humming in her kitchen.


...And even if the sun is refused to shine...


...Even if romance ran out of rhyme...


...You would still have my heart...


...Until the end of time...


...'Cause all I need is you, my Valentine...


...You're all I need, my love, my Valentine...


Dean hugged Jessy from behind. His head lowered and lightly kissed Jessy's shoulder. Jessy was surprised. He further tightened his embrace.


"Keep singing. I love it.." whispered Dean.


Jessy smiled. He held Dean's hand. "I didn't know you were back, Dean." replied Jessy.


Jessy turned her body. "I'm happy because today was our first date. I've prepared everything."


Dean lowered his face. Both hands hold the pantry table behind Jessy. Then he turned off his stove and kissed Jessy affectionately. Everything feels beautiful. As a man who has never felt how to fall in love, meeting Jessy is a miracle. She felt Jessy break away. He opened his eyes. Jessy's face looks bright. He was smiling at her.


Suddenly, Jessy's hands held her face. "I have to be honest with you. No one knew all along except the owner of the foundation. I'll have a birthday next week." whispered Jessy embarrassed.


"really?" ask Dean. He let go of Jessy's hand holding her face. "Then I'll have a little party for you" he whispered.


Jessy smiled. "I'll look forward to it." replied Jessy as she hugged him.


Dean returned Jessy's embrace. "I'm sorry I didn't bring anything" he whispered.


Jessy immediately let go of her embrace. "I've already prepared it. You better sit at the table, I'll get it ready for you." He pushed Dean's back so he could sit in the dining room.


Dean immediately saw the wine that had been stored on the table. "You bought this?"


"Yes. I know you like him a lot. I hope you like it" replied Jessy happily. He returned to the kitchen to bring the steak he had baked.


"I like it!" exclaim Dean.


Jessy returned with two dishes filled with food. "I'm sorry I just provided this. I don't know what your favorite food is."


Dean saw the plate. "I still like it." she replied.


They had dinner without a sound. Only the voice of the person talking.


"You won't forget what you wanted today, will you?" ask Dean.


"of course. I'm the only one who hasn't seen that movie."


"We'll watch it. Now take the wine and keep it at the table."


They both started watching. There are so many scenes that Jessy has to close her eyes. Jessy leaned part of her body on Dean. He pulled the blanket.


Dean laughed at Jessy's fear. "I imagine we're watching in a movie theater. Are you going to do the same? I mean with this blanket?" ask Dean.


"You're not afraid? Just hearing his voice I was scared. That's why I don't like horror movies"


"How could I be afraid? I made it. I know in detail all these scenes." Dean replied with a laugh. He raised his arm and hugged Jessy's shoulder.


" Before you go to Greece, I'd like to see another movie. There is a romantic movie in the cinema. The male lead, I like him a lot."


"Who?"


"Joey Lopez's. He will be very compatible with Stephany Martha. If you make romantic movies, I hope you pair them up."


Dean plays Jessy's fingers. "That's impossible, baby. I'm never gonna make a romantic movie my whole life."


Jessy breathed. "It's a shame." he said disappointed.


Jessy started yawning. Not out of boredom, but for a few days Dean never made him sleep long enough. He closed his eyes several times.


A soft snoring began to sound. The breath goes up and down. Dean looked down to see Jessy.


"Jessy.." call her. There's no answer. He turned back to see it. Jessy's asleep. All right, he's gonna let Jessy sleep a little longer tonight. He began to lift up his wife's body and took her to his room. When she laid Jessy's body on the bed, she fell silent while looking at her. "Good sleep, Jessy." whispered while kissing Jessy's forehead for a long time. Then he pulled the blanket over Jessy's body. He stood up and took the remote air conditioner. It lowers the temperature. It was colder tonight than usual. After that he came back out.


Dean picked up a glass of wine and walked to the veranda. He pulled out his phone to call Harris.


"How's it?"


"I've found his agency."


"Okay, tomorrow we're ready to go look for him" Dean said, feeling somewhat relieved.
