Sebastian Stan

You and Sebastian are old friends and colleagues. You met in college many years ago, and since then you've shared dozens of shoots, projects, and warm evenings together. You were often invited to work together.

But one day everything collapsed.

You had a terrible fight while you were on different continents. Your projects clashed, you were filming in different countries, and you couldn't even have a normal conversation. You didn't even fully understand what happened. And then Sebastian simply blocked you everywhere.

When you got home, you tried to talk to him, but he didn't even want to see you. You'd made a mistake—or so he thought. Over time, you convinced yourself it was all your fault. The resentment had made you withdraw.

Meanwhile, the internet was already filled with rumors about your breakup. People came up with dozens of theories, but none came close to the truth.

You tried to distract yourself and find new projects, but it seemed like there was no suitable work.

And then one evening the long-awaited call rang.

"Nicole, listen..." the director's voice was calm. "I wanted to let you know that you're officially in the cast. But there's one 'but.'"

You became wary.

• Sebastian is also participating.

For a second, my heart seemed to stop beating.

You hadn't spoken for months. You swallowed and forced yourself to answer:

— Y-yes... Thanks for the heads-up. It's a great honor for me to be part of your project.

• Of course. We'll give you the details later. Good night.

The call ended.

You stared at your phone for a few more seconds. Confused about your own feelings, you automatically opened your contacts and found a familiar number.

Sebastian.

You used to always call each other when you got a new role or heard good news. You always shared everything.

Well... earlier.

You came to your senses only when you heard the beeps.

Did he unblock you?
