The movie release of Kiara brought many fans to the edge of their seats.
Online, the competition over Ian and different actors were ongoing. It was all due to how the fans couldn’t pick one favourite actor. But regardless of how good the movie was, they discussed the movie in detail.
“There are one hundred thousand responses to the announcement,” Brad’s assistant walked in with the best news he had heard his entire day.
It was the third week of the movie's release. And the responses continued to grow each day.
“What about the box office numbers?”
“One hundred million dollars for the first three weeks, officially.”
“Is that so?” Brad Crutchfield gave an approving look.
“Yeah, thanks to the positive reviews and the marketing affiliates, it’s been going good. And Ian’s appearance seems to be the factor that caught people's attention the most.”
Brad smiled proudly. His decision to make Ian play the role hadn’t gone in vain. And if there was anything, it was how helpful Ian was around the set.
“I don’t think we would be hitting those numbers in the first three weeks if we hired Aaron Holden for the role,” the director said, making his assistant nod.
“Ian appearing in multiple interviews increased the ratings. If this continues, there will be several awards dedicated to the movie by the end of this year.”
Brad’s smile grew even more.
“We should not assume things early, let’s focus on what’s more important. How are the theatre reactions? Are the critics-”
“Oh, needless to say, people are enjoying the movie. So, Director Crutchfield, I think we should take on our next movie before we go down this path. Because your name currently is everywhere, so, this could be a perfect opportunity to get a project from a good producer… If you know what I meant,” the assistant said with a hidden smile.

Brad, of course, understood what it meant.
“I was planning to do so either way, but can you put Ian Renner on the phone? I think we should hold a celebration next week. The one monthsary would be perfect.”
“I’ll arrange everything, sir,” the assistant said and tapped his phone screen. “Mr Renner is the one on the phone.”
With that, Brad started to talk about how well the movie was doing.
And it was only four weeks in, and there were more releases in different other countries.
Thus, things just started for Kiara.

[Stardust Cinema]
A group of surgeons gathered in the cosy confines of the local theatre, eagerly anticipating the screening of "Kiara."
This was the only holiday that they had gotten in a very long while. But, they had confined themselves to watching Kiara as a way to relax and spend more friendly time.
Excitement filled the air as they chatted animatedly, sharing their expectations and predictions for the film.
“I heard from the patient in the 13th room that this is one of those movies that can make you cry because of the hard romance. So, I’m sceptical, not going to lie,” one of them said while looking at his friends.
“Oh man, it’s too bad you had to tell it before the movie starts! You already ruined the premise for me. I really hope this won't end up being a sloppy cheesy romance movie where the female lead and male lead end up crying and sobbing,” the other friend said while propping a handful of popcorn.
“We will see. If this is not worth it, I’m going home. I’d rather spend time with my two kids than watch some sloppy romance.”
As the lights dimmed and the opening credits rolled, a hush fell over the group. The captivating visuals and enchanting music immediately drew them into the story.

They couldn't help but gasp in awe at the stunning cinematography and breathtaking scenery.
"Wow, look at the background. The movie just started and I can’t help but look at how beautiful it is. It sure is a sight for sore eyes, wait is that Ian Renner?"
“Yes, you idiot. That is Ian Renner. Did you really start watching the movie without even knowing that Ian Renner is going to be in there?"
“Who thought a director with such good looks would be there?”
“Shush! Can we please watch?” The third friend shushed both the others and started to watch the movie with their eyes and mouths open.
The story unfolded, captivating the colleagues with its compelling characters and engaging plot twists.
Laughter gasps, and even a few tears filled the theatre as they experienced a rollercoaster of emotions.
"Oh, that scene was hilarious! I didn't expect that twist at all."
"I know, right? The writing is so clever, keeping us on the edge of our seats."
As the film reached its climax, tension filled the theatre. The colleagues leaned forward, completely absorbed in the gripping storyline and rooting for the characters they had grown to love.
"Come on, Kiara! You can do it!"
"I'm on the edge of my seat! This is one heck of a scene!"
And then, as the final scene played out, a wave of emotion washed over the group. The film touched their hearts and left a lasting impact.
"Aw, man! That was just incredible! I'm speechless. It's definitely going to be one of those hit movies by the end of this year."
"Absolutely! The performances, the storytelling, everything was top-notch. I can't wait to recommend it to everyone at the hospital. No kidding, this was one of the best hangouts."
As the movie ended, not just the work colleagues but everyone else was pretty stunned about how good the movie and the acting were.
Not just people who had rooted for the movie and Ian, but also people who didn’t want to be there were glad that they did.
“My guess was that we’d walk out of the theatre after 30 minutes in,”
The colleagues heard how one of the other people who watched the movie talked to his friend.
They both wore suits to the movie theatre, so it was obvious that they were businessmen.
“I mean, even I was about to. But well, this sure is one of the best movies I watched in a while,” his friend said.
Hearing the conversation play out, the group of surgeons felt happy about their decisions of the night.
“No kidding, let’s go and get some beer. After the movie, I feel lonelier than ever,” one surgeon said to another.
They all laughed and walked outside the theatre in the hope of ending their night on a good note.

The Designated: Out of Control
It happened quicker than anyone would have imagined. Multiple hurricanes were one thing. People had dealt with that in the past. But, like kids playing dominoes, one thing crashed into another. Areas affected by hurricanes needed resources all along the Gulf and East Coasts drew rescuers and resources away from other parts of the country. When wildfires lit up the Pacific coast and mid-west, those areas were already understaffed. Driven by hurricanes in the Pacific basin, uncontrolled wildfires burned through towns, destroying everything in their paths. Across the Pacific, Asia didn't escape. From the Philippines, across China, into Indochina, and Bangladesh and India. Typhoons and cyclones pounded the coasts and far inland. Widespread flooding forced millions from their homes and across international borders. Mexico was hit hard and thousands died in mudslides as Katia slammed into their East Coast. The refugees fled north and west. Rumours started that hundreds of thousands were headed for the US border. Instead of running out of steam in the southern US, several hurricanes tore up the eastern seaboard, devastating cities and renewing their strength before veering east across the Atlantic. Maria and Ophelia veered east and slammed into Europe, reaching as far as the Netherlands and Russia before finally dissipating. After that, too many weather stations were offline to provide any form of co-ordinated information or warnings. Wildfires in Portugal burned ahead of the storms, fanned by hurricane winds. They sparked wildfires leapfrogging across Europe, beyond any one country's ability to cope. Already uneasy from multiple terrorist attacks over the summer, anti-refugee groups seized the opportunity to stage protests across Europe. Some turned violent as they clashed with police forces. Several governments declared martial law to quell the rioting and enforce evacuations along the path of the storms. Rumour and speculation overwhelmed facts. Unrest spilled over into widespread violence. Then sickness broke out in the displaced populations. Within a matter of a dozen weeks, tens of millions died. In the coming winter months hundreds more would follow. The Designated Project was activated.

Parallels
Parallels are a constant in life. Our friends' lives often run parallel to ours; we share similar experiences or tastes- perhaps even both. Sometimes, however, opposites attract- and our lives run perpendicular. In that case, we are not attracted by similarities; rather, we are attracted to the differences in others. So, what happens when two parallels are broken apart? What might happen to them? Are they forever doomed to run alongside each other, never seeing one another, never meeting? Or, perhaps, might they be spun about? Could these lines that formerly ran alongside one another meet? Could they possibly be set perpendicular? Any feedback is welcome, so long as it is constructive. Also, you may not use any characters, ideas, places, or what have you that I present here without my explicit permission. A note: This is a story which I began over a year ago, but never got around to finishing- it feels about time to really get it going. Now, there are a couple of things about the story, and myself, that need to be said. First and foremost, there's a slow start, but by the third-fourth chapter things should be speeding up a bit. Secondly, in regards to release speed and/or word count per chapter, I make no promises- my schedule is fairly random, and in regards to word count, I will cut off any chapter at any point that feels appropriate to me- that may include cliffhangers, if necessary. I'm not trying to reach a specific word count, I am trying to create a cohesive story, with pseudo-appropriate chapter breaks. This means I will also not rush a half-baked release for the sake of getting a release out. Thirdly, I will make any edits, anywhere in the story and at any time, that strike me as necessary- typically being wording and/or formatting changes, but I may also decide to change major plot points- in that case I would put a notification in the next chapter released. Finally, and most importantly, I am a Christian; this story is intended to at least moderately reflect those values. So, if you particularly dislike any of these things, feel free to look elsewhere, and don't let the door hit you on the way out. God bless, friends.
