FLUKE

I entered the conference hall an hour earlier the scheduled time, as I normally do. I looked for my space, a small table on the far corner of the room facing the floor to ceiling glass window, sat on the chair, opened my laptop, reviewed the story I was working on and got lost into oblivion.

I did not realize that I've already been writing for more than thirty minutes when my phone started ringing and my mind was back to earth.

"Newie!" I said.

"You know me so well." I answered with a laugh, a little louder than my normal voice.

he said.

I turned my head around and looked at the people sitting at the conference table. My eyes widened as soon as I realized that I wasn't alone in the room anymore, and most of them were looking at me. OMG! They could've heard me while talking on the phone.

"Oh. My. God!" I exclaimed before covering my mouth with my hand and turned to the glass window. "Shocks, Newie! I didn't notice that there are already a lot of people here. Ugh!" I said almost inaudible.

I heard him laughing on the other line.

"In Timbuktu. Collecting some sands!" I said sarcastically.

Then he laughed again.

I buried my face in my hands as soon as the call ended. You're such an embarrassment, Fluke! I repeatedly told myself, then I heard someone called me. I turned and stood when I recognized the woman standing a few feet from where I was.

"Oh my! Sammy!" I said and gave her a buss on her cheek. "So, you're part of the cast?" then she nodded. "I'm so glad you are. I suggested New to consider you as my lead. I really want you to be my Jane. I know you can give justice to my lead." I said matter-of-factly.

"Seriously? Don't put your expectations so high on me. I'm afraid I might disappoint you."

"Don't be. I know you can do it." I said with a smile.

"Oh, wait. . . here. Please sign my book." She handed me the latest copy of the book I published a few weeks ago.

"Oh, why did you buy? I could just give you a copy."

"Hey! I'm a fan. F-A-N. Why would I ask you for a copy? I will do everything just to get your book and autograph. If I had to compete to anyone just to get your book, I would. Asking you for a copy would be my last option." she said, as if I hurt her pride.

I held her hand to calm her down. "Okay. Okay. You're such a drama queen. Okay, here! I'll sign it now!" I saw her smile widely. "You know what, you're the only famous person I know like this. Your fangirling over me is kinda weird already." I said while signing her book.

"Hey, me, too! I'm your number one fan. Sammy is just your number two." New said when he approached us. Giving Sammy a kiss on her cheek. He walked near me and gave me the bear hug he usually gives. For a man as chubby as him, everyone would always want to hug him. I ALWAYS like to hug him. He's so fluffy.

"Okay, fine. I will accept the fact that I'm only the second. What am I against a director? Hmp! I might lose my part in this movie if I go against him." Sammy said and the three of us laughed, then we went back to our places.
