"So? What do you think? Ito-san is really taking care of you guys."
Boon nodded at his manager, who looked around the new condo he and his co-star would be living in for the next few months with a satisfied look on her face. Currently, he was sitting in the living area on very soft couches with P'Kla, Sing, and P'Goy, having just settled in after their long day of workshops. Sing and Boon had been given a quick tour of their new home when they arrived barely an hour ago, and were given a chance to freshen up and change before joining their managers. P'Kla was as cool as ever, talking to P'Goy in a casual manner, not bothered at all that her client would be living with his co-star. She had even been encouraging, though Boon suspected the extra pay was the reason she didn't have any complaints. P'Goy was a little different, and while Boon didn't know her all that well, it was clear that she didn't share the same opinion as P'Kla.
"It's pretty big," Boon said. He had noticed that there were two large bedrooms, which gave him a sense of relief. He and Sing had been asked to live together, not sleep together - though, that bridge had already been crossed, earlier in the day, at the workshop when they had taken a nap. Boon was still feeling the effects of embarrassment for having taken off his shirt, but he was sure Sing was also in the same boat considering his predicament when they woke up. Thankfully, his nong seemed to be back to his old happy self now.
"It's got a pool and a gym and it's close to the water and the shopping district - everything you need," P'Kla said, her eyes narrowing as she pointed between Boon and Sing. "This is a great honour, you two. Don't forget it."
Boon sighed, knowing that this was his stern manager's way of saying "don't fuck it up" without explicitly doing so. He glanced at Sing, playfully rolling his eyes at his manager, who was now speaking to P'Goy about workshop times. "Sorry about her," Boon whispered to his new companion. "She cares, but has her own weird way of doing so. I promise she doesn't usually bite."
P'Nan, their acting coach, had told Sing and Boon that she'd be checking in with them, and that they should hang out and get to know each other's characters for the next couple of days before their next check in. Boon was actually looking forward to it - he was planning on rereading the novel, this time with closer attention to his character, so that he could truly understand the feelings he'd be expressing when they filmed. The talk about the pool and gym was also pretty exciting - Boon could definitely go for a session, of either, to wind down at the end of the day. He might even ask if Sing wanted to join him.
