Andrew's face was covered in sweat. He was tired and panting, yet he stood tall and ready. In front of him was a large muscular man in sportswear like Andrew, although the former had an angry expression.
"Push yourself harder, Andrew! You're so close!" He said, looking straight into the eyes of the former.
In an instant, the coach grabbed Andrew by the collar and lifted him into the air. Then putting it over his shoulder, he slammed Andrew onto the floor.
"One more!" The coach got off the training ground, and another tall and slender looking person walked onto the mat with an emotionless face.
"From the beginning again!" The leading coach, who stood a few steps away from them, shouted and continued to observe the movements of the two youngsters in the mat arena.
Andrew controlled himself. His brows, which were covered in sweat, turned into wrinkles. He pursed his lips and clenched his fists. And once again, with the coach's whistle, the two of them started to tackle each other.
Back then—
"Andrew!" A voice suddenly came from behind, and he was on the ground in a split second, panting. It was the fourth hour of practice, and although he was a good learner, these moments challenged him to excel.
Everyone's eyes turned to look at the main entrance, from which three people stepped into the training hall. Andrew, who immediately stood up, smiled looking at the faces of Will, Jeffrey, and Alexia.
Will continued walking forward in front of the trio and shook hands with the coach. And then, his shift focused on seeing Andrew sweat. Finally, the coach and other coaches walk away, excuse me to the side.
Will observed the young man in front of him and was quite astonished at how handsome Andrew was. Although she noticed the latter's body shape change when Andrew visited her in the hospital, Andrew now looks healthier and fitter.
"I didn't expect to see you here" Andrew said as he looked at the three men.
When he saw the three walking towards him, it was truly shocking to Andrew. He was on the floor looking like a muddy pig with a racing heart, but as soon as he saw them, he instinctively stood up, even though it was not much of a problem due to the adrenaline from the exercise.
"I'm finally back at work starting today" Will replied.
Andrew's smile widened at the words, "I'm glad you're okay now, Will. Welcome back to work, I guess?" He asked jokingly.
"Yes, thank you. The thing is, I wanted to meet you because Spiderman's pre-production will start today" Will said.
An 'Oh' came out of his lips because he had not expected it to start as soon as Will recovered.
"Yes, and consider this a warning. From now on, you'll have a hard time" Will said, walking towards a corner of the hall, and followed by Andrew.
Alexia and Jeffery were standing right at their place, watching the other children practicing.
"I think I'm ready" Andrew said with a confident smile.
"Hm. we'll see that when the time comes. But, for starters, you have to try so many costumes just to see what matches Peter Parker's appearance. And when I say so much, I mean so much, "Will replied.
"Yes, I'm more than ready. The role you offer, honestly I'm ready to try anything and give everything."
"How's your practice? Is everything going well?" will ask.
"Five days a week. If explained, both gymnastics and Judo. As you said, with a little more help, I might be able to do all the stunts myself, and yes, practice is the best part, and oddly enough, I enjoy every moment of it. It was like getting ready to go to war with so much training, "said Andrew, laughing a little at the end.
"It's good if you feel that way. Dream Vision has already started casting. And things will move fast now that I'm alive,"
"I came to see you twice, one moment you were unconscious. I mean, even though you can't hear anything, I'm actually praying for you to heal. And well, you know when I meet again, you're awake," Andre laughed again.
Just then, Alexia walked up to them and said as she looked at Will, "Sorry to interrupt, but the next meeting is ten minutes away."
"It's my cue to leave you, and I hope you train well. Hang in. It's all for a good ending" Will said, standing up and patting Andrew on the shoulder.
'I'm ready to do anything that can get me higher up in the industry, which I've always wanted, ' he thought.
Will, Jeffery, and Alexia walked out of the hall hand in hand.
"Andrew's a good boy," Jeffery murmured, getting a 'yes' answer from Will.
They are still walking, but Jeffery continues to talk about how Andrew is still training despite his tough days for him.
"I love the dedication he showed to prepare for his role. And, Will, you really have a good talent for finding good kids. Andrew currently looks as if he was made for the role of Spiderman. And the potential he has shown with all the incredible hard work," Jeffery continued to speak while on his way to the meeting room.
"Yes, he's a great kid. To my luck, it was as if I was running out of fuel because of how often I used it lately," Will said with a mocking smile. Jeffery and Alexia both laughed out loud.
"Like how lucky are you to have survived that stab?" Jeffery said suddenly and regretted it in the next second. So to cover it up, he switched the conversation. "Damon McDonald fits the role of the green Goblin?" She asked.
Will, Jeffrey and Alexia are currently meeting with Damon, who will audition for the role of Green Goblin. The Green Goblin is also known as Norman Osborn. Right now, Will wants to meet her and see if Damon fits into the role.
Damon McDonald is a middle-aged Canadian. He is a very famous actor with all the supporting roles he does. He has managed to make the director's job easy in every film he has participated in. In fact, this opportunity would be a beautiful gateway for him to reach the path he was on. The main reason why Will chose Damon for the role was how he managed to make a crazy laugh in one of his films exactly as William Dafoe did as Green Goblin in the original film.
Therefore, Will thinks that Damon will be a good Norman. Originally, for the role of Norman Osborn, he had tried to find William Dafoe, but he failed. Therefore, it tries to use other available options. One of the closest candidates for the role was Damon.

"Miss June, how are you?" The interviewer asks June, who is focusing the camera on her face.
She wore a suit, which gave off a modern and classy feel, and her makeup was neatly made to match the light and background. Since [The Terminator] is going to be released in September, he's been going through interviews left and right lately. She is currently in an interview for the MeTube channel with over 20 million subs, where people watch just to see the latest news about Hollywood celebrities.
Although he did so many promotions, usually with one or two other fellow actors, but what is now a solo interview.
Ever since the release date was announced, people were crazy about knowing [The Terminator]. After agreeing to several interviews, June ends up in an interview where she feels comfortable because of how they made her through the questions before recording.
"Never felt better. You can call me June. How are you?" June replied, looking at the interviewer with a slight smile.
"I'm fine, thank you. Let's continue with the reason you're here. New movie. Our entire audience is curious and wants to know anything about it, and we want to know what you think of your movie.The latest movie, [The Terminator]? How was the shoot, and most importantly, what was the first time you thought about it after understanding the plot of the movie?"
"It's a really amazing experience working with the crew and getting to know each other" June said with a smile, "I need to mention how easy it is to work with everyone, and overall, on the whole, my only advice is that everyone should go and watch it after it's released because I can assure you that it won't waste your time in any way."
"That sounds incredible, I can't wait until the movie comes out. Another thing that everyone watching in their home wants to know is how will Will Evans recover? Looks like she's been the hottest news in Hollywood lately."
"Will is fine and just got back to work after– you know, the incident. He's fine as always" June replied briefly.
"Is he planning to do something more? I mean, according to sources, there's been a rumor about how Will has a lot on his plate–"
"Will is talented and someone who knows what he's doing. I don't think anyone should worry about him. She's fine," June continued to smile throughout the response.
Although she faced many interviews lately due to the promotion of the film, almost more than half of the questions asked of her were about Will. As she has become a trendy topic to talk about in Hollywood, interviewers are looking for ways to get to know her through interviews in June.
Although June answered each of their questions politely, in her mind, the intention to start a new studio was confirmed more than ever because of all of this.
And he was well aware that if he decided to act upset with those questions, the tabloids and gossip sites would be full of him "getting a tantrum". This was the last thing he wanted. After all, even though she knew most of her fame came from a family relationship with Will, she wanted to rise up on her own and confidently stand shoulder to shoulder with the young man she loved.
And the desire to start his own studio and make it the next big thing increased after he felt that he did not have the power or influence to stop such questions from interviewers.
