"Sarah, I love you can't you see?" Philip asked grabbing her arm.
"Love? You call this love?" she scoffed. "How dare you? Let me go!" she snatched her hand out of his.
"Cut!!" the director yelled "that's a wrap for today. Good work guys."
Jessie said goodbye to Martin as she walked to her trailer. It had been a long day, gosh she had to make appearances in four movies three of which she was playing the lead part. Tomorrow she had a shoot in a comedy series. It was a horror she was supposed to be best friends with her co-star Patricia but they hated each others guts. Thinking about the shoot made her head hurt.
After getting out of costume, she changed into a pair of Jeans and a white lace crop top. She pulled on her boots and left.
"Jessie are you ready?" Tony her manager asked. "What are you wearing?" he asked as she left her trailer.
"Do I have any other thing on my schedule?" she asked.
"Have you forgotten the interview by eight?"
"Ah... I did I'm so sorry it's been a busy day, I guess I just wanted to go home so badly." She laughed.
"Well go back in there and Lana will come fix your makeup, and your clothes too." He ordered.
Jessie was camera ready by seven and heading into her van for the interview. It was for the comedy series 'Trained together'. The biggest show on TV was interviewing the cast. She was quite excited actually, but she hated that she was going to be seeing Patricia Lee's face today as well. Oh well at least she knew how to behave on camera so she wouldn't have a problem.

They arrived just on time, as the host was inviting them on stage.
"Took you long enough to get here" Patricia sneered.
"Well when you have a schedule as busy as mine you tend to be late to things" she sneered back.
"Okay ladies, no fighting it's show time." The director said.
"Now if you will welcome the stars from our favourite TV show 'Trained together'!" the host said and on cue both ladies walked on stage, giving their best camera smiles.
"Wow, look at you two, I must say this is such a treat. To have the biggest stars on my show today." Amanda the host said. "Jessie that is one hell of a dress, you two look amazing."
"Why thank you Amanda, wore it especially for you" Jessie giggled.
"Oh? Well I am indeed impressed." Amanda replied.
"So you two are currently co-stars on the hit show Trained together, for three years now? I must say your chemistry on TV is beautiful. It's like you guys actually grew up together. You two must be good friend to pull it off right?" Amanda asked.
Before Jessie could speak, Patricia already answered "well the secret to our chemistry is the impeccable acting. When you are as talented as I am you can certainly pull of anything" she said with a laughter. Every one laughed but Jessie knew it was no joke.
"Oh please tell us there are more seasons to come." Amanda asked.
"Of course there are, you must know TV loves Siri." Patricia answered again, mentioning only her characters name in the show.
"But not as much as they love Finley" Amanda said. "Tell me Jessie, how does it feel to multitask as much as you do? I hear your currently working on four lead roles all at once?"

The look on Patricia's face was priceless. Jessie laughed "Well Amanda what can I do when everyone wants a piece of me" she smiled.
"Ofcourse that's why your currently the highest paid actress in the whole country" Amanda said, Jessie gives her a blush.
"Well, Patricia, what other movies or TV shows are you working on?" Amanda asked.
"Oh you know me Amanda, I like to focus on a specific task and do my job to the best of my ability so I'm focused on Trained together." She smiled.
"Oh? but we would love to see your face more on screen, this days it seems like the only thing you see on TV is Jessie. Not that we are complaining." Amanda replied.
"Well I am so busy with my personal life right now, maybe sometime in the future after all the stress has passed from my wedding."
"Wedding?" Amanda asked, Patricia put her hand on her mouth pretending to be surprised she let out the information unknowingly. "Oh Patricia you're holding out on us? Come on Patricia."
"Okay, Okay. I can't tell you who it is just yet, but yes I am getting married." She smiles.
"Well that is great news, Jessie any love interests?" Amanda asks.
"Amanda you know my fans are my love interests" she says with the sexiest smile, the audience goes crazy.
"Okay" Amanda laughs "it's been great having you girls on TV. Come again?"
"Certainly Amanda" Patricia answered.
"There you have it people, Patricia Lee and our nations goddess Jessie Marin." the crowd applauds as they exit the stage.
"Don't think you've won Jessie don't even dare because of some useless interview." Patricia spat at her immediately they left the stage.
"Oh honey, you don't even come close to competing with me. And I must say desperation is a good look on you." She laughs "Congratulations on your wedding." she says as she walks away from a fuming Patricia.
Jessie gets into her van, it's just her and the driver, Tony already told her he would not be able to wait for her. Eager to go home and sleep, she pulled of her golden strapped heels.
As the van moved she drifted off into a light slumber. But was fiercely woken by the swerving of the van, "what the hell is going on?" she screamed.
Before she knew they hit something and hard, she opened the door to look and found three masked men waiting by the van. She wanted to scream for her driver but his lifeless body she spotted by the tree they hit stopped her.
Her hands flew to her mouth when she saw the blood. "Who are you? What do you want from me?" she asked as the approached her.
"Wait! Stay away from me! Please! Help!" she screamed and tried to run away. She didn't get far before on of the guys tackled her to the ground. He flipped her over and straddled her, holding her down. Another guy walked over and covered her nose with a handkerchief. She knew what was on it, she knew but it was pointless to hold her breath. Not long her vision started to blur and all she saw was black.
