Kurt Russel sidered ag to be a roller coaster of situations he would never repeat, given the mishaps that had happened, but he wouldn't trade it for anything. The growth he experienced as an actor left a vast gap in his heart. He uood, among many things, that everything he lived through, won, and lost was necessary for the beautiful life he was now living.

  Life with Goldie Hahat many called a full-fledged marriage. Mistakes were there, but they couldn't be avoided. However, with unity and itment, all those mistakes could be corrected.

  He had been jogging with Billy for a week, and Kurt Russel couldn't help but pare him to his son Wyatt Russell. Would he grow as well as this young mahought deep down in his heart that his son would be as lively and intelligent as the young billionaire Darwin, who was mature beyond his years—a great actor and successful with women.

  -Good m, Bill. Are you ready for another day of exercise? - Kurt said more calmly and much more attuo Bill's temperament, which was at most a reserved one.

  -Yes, - said Bill.

  They both walked calmly to the lobby, and from there, they gracefully jogged to the parking lot. The atmosphere was getting thicker every day due to the arrival of spring and the summer that set the already desert climate of Las Vegas abze. Meanwhile, both ran shoulder to shoulder without showing signs of fatigue, arriving at the gas station with apparent sweat.

  -Do you want something to drink, kid? - Kurt asked the young man.

  -For now, I'm good, - said Bill.

  Kurt could only internally disagree with the boy's refusal. He o rex a bit, although, acc to versations overheard by Mi Abital, it was very attractive to see him lost in thought, serious, and passionate about everything he did and how he did it.

  -I'll never uand perfectly what attracts women, - thought Kurt.

  -Good m, Juan. I'm here for another bottle of water, - Kurt said.

  -Mr. Russel, please. I'm always gd to have you in my store. No one would believe me if I didn't have my autographed poster, which is still a pleasure, - Juan said cheerfully.

  A fan, one of the softest, is always a pleasure to have. What happens with fame is that after two weeks, people start to see others without that giant magnifying gss that makes them more measured in their performance. A long time ago, he uood that the less exposure there is and the more fetfulness is sought, the media will ge their attitude toward new geions that are always eager to show themselves to the world.

  -What a pleasure, Juan. Give me two bottles of water, - Kurt said, choosing two slim bottles of bottled water in a pstic thermos.

  -It's 4.34, - Juan said.

  -Keep the ge, Juan, - Kurt said, leaving the small venieore. Not without seeing the autographed poster and a photo of him and Juan— a photo taken by Bill, to Kurt's surprise. There was also a photo of Bill and Juan, at Kurt's request about Billy's ag genius.

  -Juan, what a great guy, - Kurt thought, seeing the smiling Latino. He had carefully kept the secret of Kurt and Bill's occasional visits, something that was very difficult for people.

  -Take this bottle of water, kid, - said Kurt.

  -Just take it; this sun is painful, and I'd be impressed if you don't have a dry mouth; you're pletely sweaty, - said Kurt, taking a break beside Bill.

  -Thanks, - said the young man, taking a sip from the bottle.

  -The filming has been astonishingly fast; with these new shooting teiques, recs don't st more than six months. We've been at it for three, and the rest will be done by special effects. Do you have any particur projects in mind? - asked Kurt.

  -Nothing that I know of. I auditioned for the role of Laurie in Little Women, but they haven't called me, - said Billy.

  -Don't worry; they should be finishing the produ. Ohey have everything ready to shoot, the rec will take p a few months. Nigel has spoken positively about you. I heard that yent asked for a low remuion, and you have a very good retionship; that's already a great achievement, - said Kurt.

  -Why is that? - asked Billy.

  -Well, most of the time, agents don't listen to newers, but Jim strongly defends your position. If you have a good agent bag you up, it will prevent yetting into many problems, - said Kurt.

  Standing up from the ptform and smiling accly.– e on, we have an exercise to finish, - said Kurt.

  -Yes, - replied Bill.

  Both tiheir routine as a rule; they ran until they reached the hotel, used a towel provided at the Lobeé, and ate something with Direerich, who greeted them with a smile. After all, their two stars were hardw, early risers, and masterful in their hurried performances.

  -Oh, the problems with special effects are causing a big issue. The ses now have a value of 6 million dolrs, and the produ has been struggling for the 5.5 million agreed upon initially. Everything depends on how the produ ends, - said Ronald Emerich.

  -Everything will be fine, Ronald, - reassured Nigel.

  -Anyway, we'll tih the filming; there are a few final shots in the desert, and everything will be ready for post-produ, - said Ronald Emerich.

  Kurt could only nod in silence while eating steak with breakfast potatoes, quite a rge meal for breakfast, but work kept him so busy that he sometimes fot to have lunch.

  Kurt got up from the chair a Bill with Ronald Emeriigel, and Frank, one of the early risers on Ronald Emerich's teical team. He took the elevator to the fifth floor, ehe suite with reluce, started preparing everything for a bath, and rexing his muscles. With the air ditioning, he could enjoy a hot bath, one of life's pleasures that usually made him sleepy after a long soak.

  He picked up the phone and made a call.Principio del formurio

  -Sweetheart, - said Kurt.

  -Yes, I just got back from the m jog. I'll shht away ao the set in an hour. The filming is going on as usual, but we've stuck to the schedule. Ohe promotion is over, we take a vacation, - said Kurt, pig up the corded phone and pg it in the closet while grabbing something to wear. Something light; anyway, the wardrobe team would make him ge once he arrived at the studio.

  After hanging up the phone, Kurt headed to the bathroom for a quick shower and a long soak. The hot water revitalized him, and as he dried his hair, he mentally reviewed the script for the day. He khat the ses were crucial for the plot's development.

  The plot was reag its climax; the first shots with the aribe had finished, followed by ses of the fight against the tyrant and the downfall, like the birth of a new civilization. Although some shots had already been taken, only outdoor ses remained, as filming wasn't typically done in seque rather as ve.

  After leaving the bathroom, he dressed in fortable clothes—opting for jeans and a bck t-shirt, trusting that the wardrobe team would provide the appropriate attire o. He checked his watd noticed he still had plenty of time before heading to the studio
