Versatile Superstar: Rise In Hollywood

25th May 2015, New York City

”I ’m finally back! ”

Aiden exhaled as he stared at the apartment in front of him. This apartment was his home for over a year now, and he was back here after two months.

His flight had tired him a bit, but Aiden still felt like he was full of energy. His failure to stay in X-Star had motivated him to give everything towards his dream.

The apartment he lived in was significantly away from the bustling area with bars, clubs and theatres. It had a soothing air about it, and he had enjoyed living here in his time, even though it was one of the most normal apartments in the metropolitan city.

And even if his roommate would often cause problems for him, life wasn ’t too bad.

’I wonder what James is up to? It ’s been two months since I saw him. ’

James, his roommate, was like him, a struggling actor and both of them rented the apartment together as it was cheaper for people in their line of work. Even if they didn ’t have much in common, they were quite passionate about movies and acting.

Thinking how he would react seeing him back, Aiden climbed the stairs and moved towards his room. Suddenly, he saw the room door adjacent to his pushed open, and an old lady stepped out of the room.

She was Valerie Hudson, his landlady.

”Aiden? You are back? ” She voiced, surprised to see him here. She wasn ’t expecting him to come back so soon and was sure that she wouldn ’t see him again for some more months.

”Valerie, how are you? ”

”I ’m fine, but I thought you were shooting for your show? What happened to it? Is it finished? Did you win? ”

She asked. Ever since Aiden had first met her, Valerie has always treated him right, like he was her grandson.
