Marianne Volt: whispers, a soft smile playing on her lips The crew, they were all for today... Surprise, boss.
the lights flick on and the cast and crew are wearing party hats
Marriane Volt: raises an eyebrow, a playful twinkle in her eye Oh, you think this is a surprise? Just wait until you see what I have in store for you all. But first, let's cut the cake and get this party started!
we sing happy birthday and toast to you
Marriane Volt: raises her glass To the most unexpected and wonderful birthday surprise ever! Cheers, everyone! clinks her glass against the others
after the party, everyone secretly disappears, leaving you alone with the lights turned off
Marriane Volt: lets out a heavy sigh Well, that was...unexpected. I guess I should've known better than to expect anything less.
when you turn on the lights, you find a gift bag on the table left by the crew
Marriane Volt: picks up the gift bag, peering inside Hmm, looks like they left me a little something. pulls out a beautifully crafted journal
when you open the journal, it has every script we've made with you so far, including the ones yet to come, there's a picture of you in the front as the cover
Marriane Volt: stares at the journal in awe, her eyes welling up with tears This...this is the most thoughtful and unexpected gift anyone has ever given me.
as you flip through the pages, there's a sticky note placed on one of them
Marriane Volt: carefully flips through the pages until she finds the sticky note, reads it aloud "To Marriane Volt, thank you for believing in us.
it also says on the note, 'if you want to give back, but want to give back in anonymity, we will always be here for you, just a coffee is all we ask in return, and maybe a small cake if you want to celebrate with us.'
Marriane Volt: smiles warmly, her voice filled with genuine gratitude This...this means so much to me.
the lights fade to black once again as you sit and look at the journal
Marriane Volt: sets the journal down gently on the table, her mind racing with ideas How can I repay such kindness?
the next day, you receive a letter in the mail
Marriane Volt: rips open the envelope eagerly, reads the letter aloud Dear Marriane Volt, Thank you for your generosity and support.
it continues, 'know that our goal as a production company is to not only entertain, but to do good and leave a positive impact on the world around us, we are proud to have you as a part of our journey. If you ever need us, you may reach out to us at any time.
Marriane Volt: clenches her fist with determination I won't just sit back and let them do all the giving.
another envelope shows up at your mailbox a week later
Marriane Volt: rips open the new envelope, reads the letter aloud Dear Marriane Volt, We hope this letter finds you well.
it says, 'we want to invite you to be in the first row, of our premiere, just as a token of our appreciation, as well as a reminder that our movie is nothing without the support of amazing people like yourself.'
Marriane Volt: pauses for a moment, her eyes glistening with tears This...this is too much. I never expected such a gesture. takes a deep breath, composing herself
the cast and crew see you at the premiere, they don't acknowledge you, they simply smile and nod, letting you know that you're welcome
Marriane Volt: smiles gratefully at the cast and crew, her voice filled with warmth Thank you all so much. Your kindness and support mean the world to me.
as the credits roll, one of the cast members approaches you, he is wearing a suit and a bow tie
Marriane Volt: tilts her head, a curious glint in her eyes Excuse me, is there something I can help you with?
he hands you a business card
Marriane Volt: takes the business card, her brow furrowing in thought A modeling agency? Hmm, interesting... glances at the card, studying it carefully
the man nods, 'if you ever wanted to expand your horizons, all you have to do is call' he says before walking away
Marriane Volt: murmurs to herself, her fingers tapping rhythmically on the business card Expand my horizons, huh?
a few days later, you get a call from the man, asking if you want to meet with him
Marriane Volt: answers the call with a hint of excitement Hello there. Yes, I remember you.
he says, 'I'd like to offer you a contract to model for our agency, we believe you have potential to be one of our main actresses in future projects' he says before hanging up
Marriane Volt: lets out a little squeal of excitement, her eyes shining with anticipation Oh my gosh!
a few weeks later, you get another call, the man wants you to meet the people at the agency
Marriane Volt: straightens her clothes, her hair falling perfectly in place Alright, let's see what this prestigious agency is all about.
you meet the director of the agency, he looks at you and says "Welcome to our agency Ms. Volt."
Marriane Volt: smiles politely, her voice dripping with professionalism Thank you for the warm welcome, Mr...?
