Kevin Walter

The next day, Kevin woke up early in the morning.

He didn't had a good sleep last night, maybe it was because of excitement and a sense of unreality. But seeing that he was really back and not dreaming, Kevin happily prepared the breakfast.

Gerald is still sleeping, so he can prepare the breakfast first and then wake him. He and Gerald lives together in a rented apartment in Los Angeles near Hollywood.

Gerald in fact was student of law, but then got intrested in acting and came to London to start the career. After trying in British film industry for two years and not achieving much success, he came to Hollywood with Kevin to get a bigger stage for the opportunities. And now they are together here, two childhood best friends struggling for their dreams of becoming a successful director and actor here.

After preparing a simple breakfast of toast, fried eggs and coffee, Kevin went to wake up Gerald.

"Hey buddy, wake up. It's nine o'clock already."

Gerald was enjoying his sweet sleep wgen he was interrupted by Kevin. He said from under the sheet: "Just give five minutes more."

Thirty minutes later, Kevin and Gerald were having their breakfast. The five minutes a person asked increased to thirty and now he was eating as if nothing happened.

While eating breakfast, Gerald said: "How much has your script completed?"

Kevin wants to direct the remake version of "Anna's diary" in Hollywood with a bigger budget and resources, and wants to prove himself. The script has not been completed yet and Kevin has been working on it for past two months. Last night, he took Kevin to get some fresh air, otherwise his friend might have continued trapping himself in this apartment not knowing how many months.

Kevin replied: "No it's not and will also not be in future."

Gerald looked up in surprise: "What do you mean?"

Kevin replied as if talking about something unimportant: "I have stopped writing it, and will look for something else. I think Hollywood doesn't have much like for such films. I will try something else first."

Gerald was a little stunned. He knows how much Kevin wanted to make this film. Although the subject was too bold and is not a usual Hollywood style movie, but he still supported after seeing Kevin's persistence. And now Kevin suddenly got enlightened himself.

Gerald's mood became happy that his friend learned the lesson without any loss, but also a little complicated.

Seeing the complicated look on Gerald's face, Kevin asked: "What happened to you?"

He was just smiling a moment ago, and now he likes like this.

Gerald came out of his thoughts and continued eating the breakfast "I just thought I should've taken you to a bar earlier. You might've been enlightened earlier."

His words got him an angry glare which he didn't take seriously.

Kevin knew what Gerald was worrying for himself. Gerald never liked his approach of making "Anna's diary's" remake, but he could only support him due to his stubbornness. Gerald is really his true loyal friend.

After the breakfast, Gerald left for his audition and Kevin decided to think about his future plans. Now he has to decide something else to work on. His bank account has about 2 million $ which he received after selling the property and company shares in Scotland.

Of the total 4 million, 2 million was transferred to his sister's trust fund which will fund her studies and she will receive the remaining amount at the age of eighteen. While the remaining 2 was given to him.

Kevin thought about the future direction, and suddenly he sensed something. If it's true, then it will be a great help to him. He closed his eyess and continued concentrating. The results were still the same. He seems to able to recall the exact plot and details of the movies he has watched. Although not every movie can recalled, and only those which he has watched multiple times can be remembered. But this is still a great thing for someone like him, who wants to make a successful directing career in Hollywood.

Although the options are not big, but to be on a safe side he should start with a film with low budget and high return prospects, and it seems only horror movies fit the criteria.

Horror movies are cheap, with low input and high output. They are called the perfect money making machines. Concentrating his mind, only 3-4 horror movies could be recalled.

But first, he should go check out the details with Writer's guild before deciding anything.

Kevin got up and made himself ready to go out. Standing in front of the mirror, Kevin looked at his handsome self proudly. His has back hair curled at the tips and grey blue eyes. The facial features are handsome perfectly highlighting Scottish and few British characterstics, and looks a little tough and roughian tyoe. Although there were no six or eight pack abs, but the build was overall muscular with a little tanned skin due to being in sun regularly. The height of 1.89 m makes him look like a walking male hormone machine. He looks more like a gangster or wrestler, instead of a director.

He isn't being narcissist, but he really is the most handsome, Kevin thought.
