After a day of filming and saying goodbye to Jude, Theolod returned to the hotel, took a cold shower to calm his brain, and then took out the pills and poured himself a glass of warm water.

A box of medicine is now bottoming out again. Theolod sighed and shook the box, and there was a crisp sound when the two pills collided. He poured the last two pills into his mouth to relieve his fatigue and aches, and pulled out his cell phone to make a call to Herman, but before that, another call came.

It was Nattel, and it was the first time he had called Theolod since he returned home. Theolod thought that maybe the other party was in a hurry, so he endured the headache caused by the ringing, answered the phone, and said in a calm tone as much as possible: "What's wrong, Nat?"

‘…… It's nothing, I just want to call you and see how you've been doing...... 'If it were normal, Theorod could definitely hear the hesitation in the other person's voice, it definitely didn't look like it was okay, but right now, he just wanted to see his psychiatrist and get a good night's sleep.

"How's it going? It's still like that, you know, life in theatre is always the same, and the scenery of the Italian town is still fresh and charming. If there's nothing urgent, I think I'll have to hang up. ”

Incredibly, Theorod's voice had a hint of impatience in his voice that he didn't even perceive, under normal circumstances, he would never speak to anyone else in this tone, even in front of Marshall in the previous world, this kind of emotion rarely appeared out of control, his self-control has always been a source of pride for him, and his pride never allows anyone to perceive any of his negative states.

But now, just by hearing Nattell's voice, he instinctively wanted to let the other party know that he was in a bad state at the moment.

‘…… Theorod, if you dare to hang up the phone and turn off the phone for me, you can try it. ’

“……”

‘…… Well, you ...... Are you alright?'

"I'm ......" Theolod almost blurted out the words "I'm not good," but the doorbell in the room stopped him, "I'll open the door and I'll talk about it later." ”

He walked up to the door with his phone and opened it. He thought it was Jude, who would leave the next morning, or director Anthony, or his assistant Bennett, but when he saw them, he realized that he had guessed wrong, and it was Eugenio.

Since the last time they met at the beach, he and the other two girls have become new fans of Theorod and Jude, and are always enthusiastic to run to the set, giving small gifts or snacks, and occasionally as locals, they will enthusiastically become his and Jude's tour guides, and even when the set has changed locations a few times recently, they will follow them around the island to serve as guides for the crew.

It can be said that they are like Theorod and Jude's new friends in Italy.

Probably because Eugenio appeared very frequently on the set, so many people knew him, so when he came up, the crew security did not stop him, and he appeared in front of the Theorod hotel room.

"Good evening, if you want to say goodbye to Jude, you knocked on the wrong door, Jude's room is 309, the one at the end. Theolod said that when he saw Eugenio holding a bouquet of flowers in one hand and a bag in the other, and thought it was his farewell gift to Jude, he kindly pointed to Jude's room.

"Good evening, dear Theo, I'm here for you. Eugenio said that he uses English, and that his spoken English has improved rapidly these days, and it seems that he has put a lot of effort into it.

"Looking for me?" Theolod was silent for a moment, then turned sideways to make way for the other party, "Then come in and sit down." ”

He very politely invited Eugenio in the door, and kindly poured him a cup of coffee, although Theolod did not want to talk to the others at all, but he did not show any impatience on the surface, and was still gentle and elegant like a gentleman, as if he was not the one who had almost lost his temper with Natel before.

Eugenio looked nervous, he took a sip of coffee and put down the cup, and said with a somewhat evasive look in his eyes: "Actually, I ...... Please forgive me for being nervous in front of you and forgetting how to speak, I heard that today you seem to be injured, so I want to come over...... Look at you, I brought you some medicine by the way, so ......"

A mocking smile appeared on Theorod's face at the right time, and he waved his hand and said, "Is this kind of thing spreading very quickly? What do the rumors say? I know that the three of them are tigers, but you see, I am fine now, just a little abrasion and wear out the skin." But I appreciate your concern, I'm sorry to let you make a special trip. ”

"No, it's nothing, I'm here to see you, as long as I can see you're okay. Eugenio said that the smile on Theorod's face made him dazzle, and he could even smell the refreshing scent of freshly washed body wash from his bathrobe, which made him blush even more, and he could only disguise the bag in front of Theorod, "I also brought you snacks." ”

"Thank you so much, I'll hide them away from Anthony...... Neo, don't sue me, this bouquet of flowers was also given to me, it seems that you really treat me as a sick number?" Theorod pointed to the flower, his bright eyes teasing with kindness.

Looking at the person in front of him, Eugenio didn't know where to get the courage, suddenly picked up the flower and knelt down on one knee in front of Theorod: "Yes, this rose is also for you, my love, please don't be frightened by my abruptness, so that my heart will ache." Although I know there is a big gap between us, and we are both men......"

"My Theo, you are such a dazzling star, and I am just an unknown little person, but sometimes the power of love is so magical, the moment I see you, I know that my heart no longer belongs to me, and I can offer you a qiē! Theo, my Lord Theo, I beg you to ignore our gender for a moment, I beg you to look at my love, and I beg you to accept this rose that I offer to you so humble!"

Eugenio said affectionately, he had simply brought out the Italian talent in his blood, and he nervously raised his head and stared into Theorod's eyes. He had imagined how the other person would react at this moment, maybe it was surprise, maybe it was annoyance, maybe it was embarrassment, maybe it was joy......

But he never thought that the other party's expression was so calm and ...... Helpless.

What does this mean......? Eugenio was a little flustered, and Theorod's silence made him tremble.

After his affectionate confession, the first to react was not Theorod, but the mobile phone that was put aside by Theorod-

'Eugenio Selu, you're so bold!! don't you think Italy is very safe?!!

Eugenio was startled, he didn't expect Theolod to be talking to the others before, and the man on the other end of the phone sounded so angry that his rant could be heard clearly from a distance.

"Oh...... Hell......" Theorod lifted his forehead in annoyance, he thought Natel would hang up, so he didn't care, but he didn't expect that instead of hanging up, the other party would listen to their conversation clearly. Thinking of this, Theolod was a little irritated for some reason, "Sorry, Neo, I forgot to hang up the phone......"

'Theo, you dare ......'

The man's angry voice faded as Theolod hung up. Theorod looked at the man kneeling on the ground and sighed, "You get up first." ”

"......" The other party did not move, still holding the rose.

"Okay, I can take this rose, but I won't accept you, Neo. ”

“…… Why? I can make you happy......" Eugenio said, his eyes a little lonely, "Is it because I'm a man and I'm gay?......

Theolod looked at him, slowly squatted down, and changed from looking down to looking at level: "No, Neo, don't get me wrong, and you don't have to have low self-esteem or concerns because you are gay, in fact, I appreciate and admire your courage to dare to say your love to the person you like, and strive for your own happiness and love." ”

"If you didn't reject me because of that...... So, because you like female ......"

"That's why I can't accept you. Theolod interrupted Eugenio, "I can't accept your giving and love out of appreciation and admiration, it's a blasphemy against your courage. I refuse because I only see you as a friend and not as a lover who can develop, because I know that I can't give you and you an equal affection, I can't reciprocate your love, not because of you and my sexuality, and I think I have to make that clear to you. ”

Theolod stretched out his hand and squeezed Eugenio's shoulder gently, but very sincerely, "Thank you, Neo, but you should belong to someone who will love you and cherish you, not me." ”

Eventually, Theolod sent Ogenio out of the room, and although he was rejected, Ogenio said that he would still regard Theorod as a friend, and Theorod gave him the most sincere smile and closed the door, the smile on his face disappearing in that instant.

He looked at his phone, waited for a while, and realized that the other party would never take the initiative to call at this moment, he couldn't help but hesitate a little, and finally, he had no choice but to dial the number.

The phone rang for a long time before it was connected, but the other party didn't speak, without the cynicism that Theorod imagined, he thought that with his understanding of him, his first sentence must have been "I hope I didn't disturb the private meeting between the two of you just now", but there was only silence on the other end of the phone, not knowing what the other party was waiting for, with Theorod's current state, it was difficult for him to concentrate and speculate.

“…… I refused. Theolod could only calm himself down, not even having the strength to disguise himself as he did with Eugenio, "and the previous topic...... I...... It's a good time. ”

I know, and I know. ’

"......" Natel said two "knows", and although he said nothing beyond that, Theorod understood that his second "know" meant that he knew he had lied. For a moment, he suddenly didn't know what to say.

‘…… Don't think about it anymore, Theo, empty your brain, promise me that you'll have a good rest, don't care about the script and the characters, you're just Theorod Lecht now, just my head of the rookie. Now, listen to me, get into the quilt and sleep, and if you can't sleep, count the sheep, the dogs, the cats, the nattel, whatever you want, unless you want me to fly over to you now. ’

“…… Well, I'll start counting with one-year-old Natel. Theorod couldn't help but laugh, and he tried to restrain himself to keep his voice normal.

At this moment, he suddenly realized that he was not as strong as he imagined.

He hung up the phone, flipped through the number in his phone, looked at the familiar name, and wanted to dial it out, but his fingers somehow retracted. He lay down, staring at the dim light of the lamp on the bedside table, and gradually tightened his grip on his phone.

If......

If that Marshall is Natle......

How nice that would be.

Theorod turned off the lights and rolled over.

Tomorrow, he continues to do his Ripley.
