"It barely happened that he and I were together when your work came in, He was all praises for you as soon as he realized it was you", Mr. Norman stated with a pleasing smile. "Yes I had written part of a storyline for him once", she acknowledged in surprise. How could she forget that? It had been the first and last time she ever had a chance to show her talent. Her good friend in the movie industry, Stanley had helped her get the offer and she had done a great job. Mr. Fausto had praised her that day and promised to help her in the future. She gave him her number and sent her work profile, But she never heard from him again. Later she heard he was directing a big movie in California for Hollywood. She had lost all hopes in him, Seems he hadn't forgotten her after all and did convince Mr. Norman to give her a chance. "That's great to hear, He spoke really good words about you and of course your rare beauty", Mr. Norman said with a meaningful smile as he looked her head to toe, which Sophia immediately understood. "No not this one too!", she mentally cried and then tried to change the topic. "It could still be worth a shot". "Uhmm, the story sir?", Sophia said with a small smile that didn't quite reach her eyes. "Yes please go ahead". Sighing inwardly in relief, Sophia toon out her script and faced Mr. Norman to narrate a summary of her story. "The story is about a woman who was taken away from her family as a baby and trained to become a highly trained terrorist, Fighting against the government of the country for a false cause she slowly sees the truth and also falls in love. This was against everything she was trained to believe in. The story is intense and also an eye-opener in the society". "If you would give it a chance, I'm sure it will be successful". Mr. Norman seemed impressed by the story, he clapped and said "Wow, Impressive Miss Sophia you are good". "Thank you sir", Sophia said and bowed her head. "Well I will agree to produce this movie with you," Mr. Norman said with a smile that held bad intentions, "But you must do one little thing for me". Sophia froze on her seat, "This can't be happening, No not when she needed this deal to push through. Schooling her expressions, she looked up at Mr. Norman and said, "And what is it that I must do for you?". "Hahaha, I like how you are, so cooperative and very open-minded," Mr. Norman said as he got up and walked towards Sophia. Taking his seat beside her, he placed his hands on top of the couch and looked at her with narrowed eyes. All his evil intentions twirling in the depths of his eyes. There was so much lust in his eyes. Sophia held her breath and stiffened in her seat. She hated the closeness, it was suffocating. She felt repulsed as she smelled the alcohol and cigarette mingled in his breath. Fisting her hand by her side, she looked up at him feigning oblivion, hoping desperately in her heart that he would be different. Shifting closer to Sophia he said, "You are very talented Sophia, I know that all you need is just the necessary support and you will become a big name in this industry. And you know what ? ", he said as he pointed his index finger at her, acting like he was enlightening a small child, "I can help you with that. Just agree to be my ..... my woman", He finally said and smiled broadly. Hot tears rolled sharply down Sophia's beautiful face. "Why did it always come to this?, Why was she so unlucky?". Wiping her tears she stared at Mr. Norman who seemed disappointed with her. "Is this really what I must do?", "Won't you please change your mind?, she said amidst holding back her tears. "It couldn't end like this".
