The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2654

Melody's anxiousness grew as she scrolled through the comments on the Internet. After much deliberation, she finally decided to hand over her phone to Paige.

The next morning, Melody had newfound courage as she met with the director and the rest of the team. Their first destination was the university in the city where 'War Song' was filmed. The movie primarily revolved around a romantic love story between young individuals, so college students were their primary target audience.

College campuses were a vibrant venue. Having a challenging audience as her first stop was considered as 'the road less taken'. Melody was extremely anxious as a result.

As Shaun observed her paler-than-usual complexion, he smiled and said, "You weren't this nervous when you auditioned for the role of Athena. What makes it different today?"

Melody grimaced. "Aren't you nervous? I don't know if I'll have to face any spontaneous questions later. It feels like being in class all over again."

"Oh, they're just college students. They'll probably ask questions related to the plot. You're Athena, so you're our protagonist! You can't afford to have stage fright!" the director reassured her.

Other crew members rallied around Melody and offered words of encouragement. Nathan was the other newcomer, but his prior experience as a model allowed him to remain unfazed by the roadshow. For Melody, however, the transition from online criticism to facing a live audience was a very daunting one.

She was worried about how the audience perceived her, fearing they might still hold certain prejudices against her and might not be keen on acknowledging her work in the movie.

Lucas was the only person who knew about her inner turmoil, but he could not be there to support her in person.
