Chapter 76
Merry’s eyes were bloodshot from crying, her finger pointed accusingly toward the classroom door as she screamed, “Get out! Just get out!”
Leila, sauntering out with a provoking smile, tossed back, “Well, I took the day off because the director and Bland have a scene to run through with me. So, I’ll be on my way.”
At the mention of Bland running through a scene, Merry froze.
Once Leila had left, Merry couldn’t hold back any longer. She buried her face in her arms on the desk and sobbed.
Cordelia, strolling down the hallway, tucked her baseball cap into her bag before poking Merry’s shoulder. asking, “What’s up?”
Merry turned around, her hand wrapped in gauze, and choked out, “Lia, my luck’s rotten. On my way to school, some jerk on a bike knocked into me and scraped my hand.”
That hand was supposed to be in the spotlight during filming!
She’d suffered such a nasty injury that the director had scrapped her from the role, giving it to Leila instead.
Cordelia was taken aback, feeling it was too much of a coincidence, “Who did that?” she asked.
Merry hung her head dejectedly. “Some stranger, I guess. It’s not a bad wound, but the skin broke. They helped me bandage it up and then took off.”
It all seemed like a streak of bad luck.
Merry was down all day. During the lunch break, Latham came into the classroom to console her. “It’s a bummer this time, but you mentioned applying to the Ontoky City Film and Animation Academy. That’s a good path too. Hang in there.”
Merry nodded.
The film crew had booked the school for a week, so every afternoon, students had the chance to be extras.
After classes, Cordelia, engrossed in a physics problem set, glanced up as Merry turned to her and muttered, “Lia, heading to the set?”
Cordelia gave her a look.
Merry was in evidently a low mood, her shoulders slumped. “I’ve thought it through. I can’t miss out on seeing my idol because of Leila. Who knows if I’ll ever get another chance?”
