Two days passed by in a blur.

Minjae spent his time catching up on rest, watching movies, and scrolling through social media. He didn't have any schedules, so as usual, he allowed himself to relax without thinking too much about work.

However, the thought of the upcoming drama opportunity still lingered in the back of his mind.

That afternoon, while he was lying on the couch, his phone buzzed with a message from Donghyun.

[Donghyun:Good news. I got the script. When are you free to check it out?]

Minjae sat up immediately. His fingers hovered over the screen for a second before he typed back.

[Minjae: I'm free now. Should I come to the office?]

Donghyun's reply came almost instantly.

[Donghyun: No need. I'll drop by your place in 3 hours.]

Minjae stretched his arms and got up from the couch. His curiosity about the script grew stronger now that he knew he'd have it soon.

[Minjae: Alright. See you Hyung.]

Minjae answered before dropping his phone to the side.

'Let's see if this one is worth my time,' he thought to himself.

With that, he went to freshen up while waiting for Donghyun to arrive.

Flex Entertainment Office.

Donghyun leaned back in his chair, tapping his fingers lightly against the armrest as he listened to Chanhyuk talking.

The two were having a quick and sudden meeting because of the sudden casting call.

"Are you sure Minjae is ready for this?" Chanhyuk asked, adjusting his glasses as he scanned the script in his hands.

"He hasn't even debuted in his first drama yet, and we're already throwing another one at him."

Donghyun exhaled, resting his elbow on the table.

"Well, it's not guaranteed yet. There's still an audition at the first quarter of next year. We just need to prepare Minjae this early as this isn't just any project. The production team is solid, and the scriptwriter has a track record of hits. If Minjae gets this role, it'll cement him as a rising star."

Chanhyuk sighed and set the script down.

"I won't deny that the opportunity is good. But can he handle it? He's talented, I'll give him that, but experience is another thing."

Donghyun smirked. "That's why I'm giving him the script first. If Minjae doesn't think he can do it, he won't take it. He's not the type to bite off more than he can chew."

"You have a lot of faith in him." Chanhyuk leaned back, considering his words.

"I do," Donghyun said without hesitation. "He's a natural, and you know it. He's already turned heads with that campaign shoot, and his drama performance, once it's out, I'm sure it will speak for itself."

"You sound like a proud older brother." Chanhyuk chuckled.

"Well, someone has to look out for him." Donghyun shrugged. Though on the inside, he really felt as if he was an older brother than Minjae.

Maybe my older brother was an underestimate especially with his again. He can be considered a father or even his uncle.

There was a brief silence before Chanhyuk finally nodded.

"Alright. I'll back you on this. But if Minjae decides to audition, make sure to tell me first since I need to forward it to the company first before he could proceed." Chanhyuk smiled at Donghyun.

Chanhyuk trusted Donghyun's judgment. He has been in the industry for so long, and with his experience, he knew that he wouldn't just make any decisions.

Donghyun was a wise man. He had a lot of connections in the industry, maybe even more than what Chanhyuk has himself.

That was why it made him curious about what Donghyun saw on Minjae. He didn't mean it in a bad way, but it was just really unbelievable.

"Don't worry, I'll make sure he's fine. I'm heading to his place later to drop off the script." Donghyun grinned.

"Tell him to take his time reading it. No pressure." Chanhyuk handed him back the neatly bound script.

"Got it." Donghyun took the script and stood up.

"I'll take my leave then." Donghyun slightly bowed his head before leaving the office. He checked the time on his watch

He said to Minjae he'd be there in three hours, but it seemed like he'd be there way before that.

'Let's see what you think about this one, Minjae.'

As Donghyun walked out of the office, script in hand, a small grin tugged at the corner of his lips. He wasn't just pushing Minjae for this role because it was a good opportunity.

No, there was another reason, one that made this casting call even more interesting.

It was Sooyun.

The name itself made his blood boil.

He knew that Sooyun had laid down low on the industry after his recent issue with Minjae, but it wasn't enough for Donghyun.

Donghyun wants Sooyun to completely suffer. Suffer in a way that he'd realize that there was better than him. Sooyun was talented, sure, but the problem was he acted like no one else could compare to him.

He knew that Sooyun probably hated Minjae by now, especially with Minjae's current rise in publicity.

And now, there was a rumor going around that Sooyun had his eyes on this very same script.

"That guy..." Donghyun let out a scoff.

He wasn't even surprised. The role for the drama was perfect for someone trying to make a powerful impression. It was an ambitious, layered character that required both charisma and raw emotional depth.

If Sooyun got it, it would only fuel his already massive ego.

But what if Minjae got it instead?

Now that would be a sight to see.

Donghyun knew Minjae had the potential to outshine Sooyun, just like what he did when he was an extra. However, to do that, he needed the right stage to prove it.

This drama could be it.

It wasn't just about landing a role, it was about beating Sooyun at his own game.

Donghyun chuckled to himself as he made his way to his car.

"Let's see how you like losing for once, Sooyun."

He slipped into the driver's seat, tossing the script onto the passenger side. He had no doubt that Minjae could handle the challenge.

The kid had the skill, the determination, and most importantly the humility that Sooyun lacked.

All Minjae needed to do was say yes.

And Donghyun would make sure that happened.
