SLAP!
Everyone gasped; jaws dropped. One second, they'd seen Lola approach Melissa, and the next, a resounding slap echoed across the set.
For several frozen seconds, everyone stood still, eyes fixed on Melissa and Lola. Melissa's head turned to the side, her hand pressed to the throbbing cheek. When she looked back at Lola, another slap landed on the other side.
"Kyah!" Melissa fell to her knees as her cheek swelled.
"Oh my God." A crew member jumped back. "Has she lost her mind?"
Even Simon scoffed. "That crazy girl… what the hell is she doing?"
Some people looked toward Director Sarian, only to see him duck his head as if trying to hide. He clearly didn't want to witness such cruelty. Megan and Pixy opened and closed their mouths in shock.
These were the same girls who'd been advised not to waste their energy on Melissa. And yet the woman who told them Melissa wasn't worth it had just slapped her left and right.
Cedrick and Silo stood with their jaws on the floor.
