A special guest with candies

Mr.D has to inform Little Moon about the visitor, who is going to spend a few months at her place. He invited me to attend the video call that morning with her. I was feeling so excited because for the first time I am going to see her properly and I hope she will accept Mr.D's request.

"Sir, she is online right now," said Kevin bringing out some cashews as snacks and some orange juice.

"Thanks, Kevin. Are ready to see Star Dust George?" asked Mr.D in a playful mood.

I think this is going to be so much fun.

"Is she still at the beach home?" I asked Mr.D.

"Yes... It's hard to take her away from the beach.. and she needs to find a seashell every time she heads to the beach."

"A souvenir?"

"Yes... Have you seen that photo of a jar filling up with seashells?"

"She used to tell me about this seashell jar. Every shell in there had a story to tell. But I didn't believe it.."Mr.D laughed so hard at me for what I said right now and said,

"One time I took her to the beach and couldn't find a nice seashell. Oh My!!1she made such a fuss about it for weeks."

"Really? so what did you do?" I asked.

"Nothing just bought her favorite candy. Every time she starts to fuss about the seashell, I hand over a candy."

So her secret weapon is that special candies.

----------------------------------------------------

"Did you have fun, my Little Moon?" I heard Mr.D talking with her as I entered the home office at his place. Here I saw him watching the big screen with the live stream, he was right she is still staying at the beach home.

"Yes... See what I got" I see her showing a seashell that she had found earlier.

She seems so happy and relaxed while talking with him. I see her waist-length black hair dancing with the wind, wearing a long summer dress in white and red print. I have to say she is not a beauty, but a girl you would look at twice. She looks so seductive when she looks at you from the side with her face in her hand. Looks so much like a little kid in her petite figure.

"I got some candies... that you don't get it there." She was teaing him while munching on the candies that looked like orange slices. Mr. D motioned me to come and sit beside him on the sofa. This made her facial expressions change, as she started to see me on her screen.

"AHMmm... BOOOOOO!!!! who's there with you?" her expression changed completely.

"He's my guest at home and he is an important person." Mr.D explained.

"OH!... ahmm... I.. " she starts to stammer, as she has little interaction with people she doesn't know.

"Little Moon, don't worry..You know this person, and didn't someone recommend a lead actor to the new script. hmmm.. " said Mr.D.

"Is it George? Really?" she asked surprised. I think it's hard for her to know it's really me, so I took off my glasses and came closer and said,

"Hi, Little Moon."

She seems so quiet as if she couldn't believe it. So I tell her a bit more about her script,

"I love your script very much. Thank you for recommending me for the lead role, and I have accepted the offer."

"Oh! I mean... ahm... Thank you." still in disbelief she replied and turned to Mr.D,

"Mr.Tall and Handsome, why didn't you tell me about this earlier. I am soo embarrassed now I fought with you too. You know, I don't like hush hush secrets." she made a face at him, while I laughed.

"If I tell you, how can I give you a surprise and make you angry, my little idiot." he pretended to be hurt and said, "You can give me any punishment, I accept it."

"Ok... then you have to peel one kilo of red onions," she smirked.

"This girl... if she was here I would have given her a good hit on her head." Mr.D playfully replied.

We all talked about things for a few hours and played some games online. We talked about my previous dramas and movies. Little Moon was an excellent critic. She said my best act was the lawyer role I did. Though many liked the role I played, that drama was not a success.

"George, you know why I recommended you for the lead role?"

I nodded my head as "No".

"Because you have the natural character for this role. It's basically written after studying you." I looked at her open mouth.

"Little Moon, what do you mean?" asked Mr.D.

"Yes" she smiled. "I wanted him to act in one of our dramas, so I studied his characters and old dramas. And I wanted someone with natural talent that blends with the real character as well as.." she looked shy, "have eyes like my Booo, which is an ideal necessary for the script. "

I was astonished by what she said. So does this mean she knows I am Duskof night.I looked at Mr.D and he nodded to me as no after reading my mind. She seems so relaxed when he is around. I really liked the carefree, happy girl I see on the screen, but at the same time, I worried, why she was so distanced from others and hides in her little world. Maybe I can get her out of it to show her the world is a better place than she had experienced.

"Little Moon, I have a favor to ask from you.." said Mr.D ready to inquire about my stay at her place.

"Hmm"

"I am hoping to send George to spend about 2 months with you before the drama starts."

"Why?" one-word replies.

"First he needs a break to refresh his mind and prepare for the character and I want him to learn more about the character and others involved in the script. "

"So why my place?"

"oh... you have room and space for free. Plus you are the scriptwriter. And I can talk to you both at the same time." Mr.D said with a strict voice.

"Are you threatening me?" she asked munching on candy.

"I dare not... I am doing this because it's easy for me and I have a babysitter for you. He can look after you."

"Do I get to say "NO" ?"

"No, you have to say "Yes" and accept the two months. Promise, your work won't be interrupted."

She thought for a few minutes and looked at both of us for a while.

"I guess it's ok. He can stay"

High fived Mr.D with me.
