282 Bumpy Road** (1/2)

”What are you thinking?” Thea asked when she noticed Keira seeming to be deep in thoughts.

”Zach's birthday is coming. I want to give him a great birthday gift, but I can't seem to think of one. Also, I want to throw him a surprise birthday party. One that he would not expect,” Keira answered.

Gavin, who had brought them hot chocolates, heard it, so he asked, ”Do you want to throw him a big party? Or an intimate one, where it's going to be just the two of you?”

Keira pouted her lips and said, ”I want one with the family and his close friends. He's been through a lot, and I'm sure he would want to celebrate it with family and friends too…”

”Hmm… I'll help you. I'm quite gifted when it comes to nice ideas,” Gavin boasted, to which Thea laughed.

”By the way, you promised you'd tell me all about your love story with the General. Besides, I need more background info to help you with some ideas for the party,” said Gavin with a grin. Keira laughed. Gavin had been persistent in knowing how Zach and her love story had begun. He said he wanted to turn it into a book.

”Geez, such a pushy writer,” Thea commented dryly. She actually didn't want Gavin to resign because he was fun to be with and like a brother to them in the newsroom.

Gavin laughed and ignored Thea's sarcastic remark. He countered, ”Don't worry, Thea, you'll also be in the book because you're also a part of Keira's story. You're the antagonist there.”

Keira burst out laughing and added, ”Yeah, she was at first. Gosh, I'll tell you in detail how she bullied me before. Make sure you include it in your book.”

Thea pulled a face at the two who were now laughing loudly. She was about to say something when Director Holmes shouted. ”Return to your spots now!”

”Why don't you write your own story instead?” Thea asked Gavin as they resumed their positions in the live studio.

”I do. I'm in the middle of writing it…” said Gavin. Thea looked at him and teased, ”Let me give it a title. What about 'The Martyr Friend Who Can't Confess'?”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

Gavin laughed and said, ”No. It's 'The Bestfriend Who Loves Me'.”

Thea's mouth twitched as she sat down on her chair and said, ”Nah, 'The Martyr Bestfriend Who Can't Confess' would suit your story best.”

Keira shook her head as she watched the two banter with each other from the other side of the live studio.

”Aren't you going to try out for Gavin's position? You really should. I think you and Thea will look good together on the screen.” One of their executive producers suggested as she took a seat beside Keira. Apart from looking good on screen, she liked Keira's attitude at work and her capabilities. Keira was one of their best reporters, and the executive producer was sure that Keira would also nail the anchoring job.

Keira smiled and nodded. She would definitely apply for the position as it was her dream career.
