CAST SELECTION

"Veo, please help me with these!" Nan asked for help. "Yeah, yeah sure. Gosh, this is not gonna end fast." Veo complained. Nan and Veo are working on a difficult task from their lecturer, they have to finish it before the deadline. The deadline is in 1 hour, while a scheduled meeting for the series will begin in 2 hours. They're totally in rush.

They finished their task just right on time and leave as soon as they can to the meeting site. They expect traffic and all until they arrived in front of the meeting room. "I can believe we made it in time. hahh..! hahh..!" Veo said while panting."..." Nan didn't answer. "Nan?" Veo take turns to Nan and he saw Nan half-lying on the bench outside the meeting room. "Nann!! Don't faint!!" Veo panicked. "I'm not fainting, you rascal!! I'm exhausted, don't make me waste another breath." She said. "You gave me a scare." Veo places his right hand on his chest and sits beside her while waiting for the others.

They rest around 10 minutes and the time has come. Nan and Min already finished the scenario and it is time to choose the casts. So they will have a meeting with Taw, the Stunt Manager.

They began the meeting at 02.00 pm. They're so many options and a lot of details have to be concerned to choose the casts. Starting from their acting skill, track records, popularity, rates, and even their physical situation.

Since the first male lead is absolute. They try to choose the case that matches Din. For the first female lead, they agree to choose someone who had a sweet-cute face like Din and experience a lot of acting skill, so they choose Nin Suraknha. As for the second male lead 'Det', Min suggested Krane Sutta at first but, Nan does not agree. Nan wants it to be someone that seems more casual because 'Det' has a different character with 'Rum', the first male lead. He is modest, gentle, like outdoor activities. Nan thinks Krane image is a bit glamour. He would be suitable for 'Rum' character but not for 'Det'. "So, who do you have in mind, Nan?" Taw asked. "I think Tan or Sino would be great." Nan gives her opinion. "I think we should go for Tan." Veo suggests. "I agree with Veo, Tan is would be perfect for the character. On top of that, his is personality resembles 'Det'." Min said. As for the second female lead 'Wild' is a glamorous woman, they go for Nam. She has good acting skills and also popular. She usually plays a casual and simple character, but we want Nam to be different in this series. As for the other character, there are Luek, Jess, Fo, Jan, and etc.

And the meeting finished at 05.00 pm. Nan and Veo are planning to have snacks somewhere before going home. They stopped by at a cafe & resto, ordered their snacks and talk. They relieved that they have passed today's event. The next schedule will be informed by Taw. It was the first script reading, so all the cast should present. Probably, will happen in one or two weeks. It wasn't easy to gather all those casts. Nan and Veo will have a bit of leisure time before the real one strikes in. Because, if all the casts are confirmed, and they had the first script reading, it would be a lot more tiring. Even Nan and Veo already got leave permission from the university for that time.

After having snacks with Veo, Nan comes home. She drops herself right into her bed and checked her phone. She opened her Instagram and scrolls down to explore. She found Din's picture and she remembered the time when she had a good time with Din. It was fun and intriguing. She smiles seeing Din's face on that picture and her phone rings. It was Din. "Wha..." Nan surprised. It was embarrassing Din called while she's staring at his picture.

Nan is fixing her voice and picked up the phone. "Hello, Din?" she said. "Oii Naaan! I heard today was the cast's election, right?" Din asked. "Yeah, why? Want to know who played 'Rin'? I'm not gonna tell you, dude." teased Nan. "Why should I? I already knew." Din brags. "So?" asked Nan. "I just want to know how is my friend doing in these two weeks. haha" said Din. "Wow, I just know that my day off hero is a caring person, I'm falling in loooovee." teased Nan and she laughs. Din didn't say a word. "Din, are you still there?" asked Nan. "Ye-Yeah... " He sounds stuttered. "Why are you stuttered?" asked Nan. "Wha?! N-No! ...." He hung up.

Nan confused and thinks "Did I say anything wrong? No, I don't think so. All I do is making fun of him. Did he have a change of mood?". Din didn't call back and Nan got worried. She called him that night, Din didn't pick up. Nan tries again for time to time the next day but Din still ignores her calls. Nan thinks there must be something that makes him angry and ignore her calls. So, Nan decides to apologize if they meet in the office building.

* DIN

Din surprised and he hung up deliberately because it was embarrassing. Din couldn't get his head straight, he keeps recalling what Nan said through the phone. "Arrghh... How could she said something like that??" Din cries in silence while grabbing his hair. He couldn't sleep because of all the embarrassment. He saw Nan called him back but, he can't afford to pick it up. "I'm sorry, Nan. It's your fault." said Din. He keeps ignoring her calls. He realized that he likes Nan more than he thinks would. Every time Nan's name pop up in his phone, he just can't help it but recalling Nan's

"My day off hero is a caring person, I'm falling in loooovee."

He's already hammered with "day off hero" last time and now she added, "fell in love". this is just too much for Din.
