Moza walked back and forth in his house. Sticking his legs, his hair tangled, his expression panicked. He did not expect that Erigo would reveal such a thing.
Moza has been targeted by the media since Erigo's statement was broadcast. He became the target of the media and the target of the blasphemy of haters. He vents his frustration at his manager, Ruli, whom he values as incompetent about his relationship and Erigo. He was walking uneasily at home biting his fingernails. Stare angrily at the television.
"No, Ruli. I can't accept something like this. Tell the reporters that Erigo and the girl are having an affair. Make me a victim. Use anything. Photos, videos, anything you can. You have to keep me shining, I'm not gonna fall again because of this." Moza said fiery.
"What if it doesn't work? Your career will end Moza." Ruli.
Moza. "My career will be fine. Erigo and the girl will be considered a cheating partner and make me feel sorry for many people. That way there will be many television stations that invite me to be a guest star. You know, I have to be on Ruli's tv. I don't want to just sing on the offair stage." Moza stomped her feet.
Moza tried to cry in front of Ruli. "Please.. Just this once. You followed Erigo in the first place, you must have something, right? A tape or a photo, whatever it is."
Seeing Ruli who was silent, the tear show turned into a hysterical scream accompanied by caci maki. Moza lost control and tried to hit Ruli.
That's enough. Ruli's fed up. He catches Moza's wrist and slams her onto the sofa. "This is my last favor Moza. I will not be responsible for anything that happens after this. And I resign, I quit being your manager from today. Here's the file and you take care of yourself. May you have your happiness." Ruli said and left Moza's house. Leaving the crying Moza begging Ruli to stay.
Moza turned into a terrible person because of his obsession for fame. He invited reporters, held a press conference at a cafe, made up stories and gave files that Ruli left behind.

Aira sat folding her knees on the sofa, staring blankly at the television. Winne who saw him immediately grabbed the TV remote held by Aira and pressed the off button.
The news was unexpected. Featuring a photo of Erigo holding Aira's hand. Another photo shows Aira touching Erigo's face. There was even one of the photos that was blurred, but it clearly showed that Erigo was kissing Aira. And the narrative that is displayed makes Aira gaping.
'CONFIDENCE' 'CLOSE' 'THIRD PERSON'
'ERIGO AND STYLIST' 'MODERN CINDERELLA'
'STYLIST VS CELEBRITY'
The whole story actually cornered Aira who was thought to have taken Erigo from Moza. Plus video footage of Erigo possessively embracing Aira's shoulder and glaring furiously at a reporter.
"It doesn't make sense" Aira said in disbelief.
"Don't watch it again. It's all rubbish" Caci Winne.
"Have you spoken to Erigo?" Ask.
Aira shakes. "Later. I'd rather talk directly." Aira.
"yes too. Erigo is scheduled to fill out a talk show next week. But reportedly, filming was delayed at Erigo's request. Yansen said she doesn't want to be present at any event right now. That makes the company pay a penalty. Because of that witch." Say Winne again.
Aira breathed a rough breath. "I don't understand. If Moza likes Erigo so much, why would he do something like this. Especially when the album release schedule is near. That's so mean". Aira rolled on the sofa. "Auggh... I hate him" said Aira annoyed.
Winne laughs. "You can use it. Or do you want to do it together? Yansen does it often." Winne. "You know, those swear words are pretty much, I want to tell you?".
This time Aira laughed. " I think Yansen has a bad influence on you Anantha. I have to warn him"

Time showed it was past eleven o'clock at night when Winne's phone suddenly shook. Winne picks up her phone and takes it out of the room so as not to disturb the sleeping Aira. Airez's name is on his phone screen.
"Hello Airez" said Winne. At Airez's place it must be morning, thought Winne.
"Hi Winne" replied Airez flatly.
"What's the matter you called me?" Ask Winne again while yawning.
"mmm... Right" replied Winne lazily.
"Then why is my sister's face on television with that man today? Tell me Anantha, what exactly is the relationship between the two of them?" Tanya Airez sharp. Winne's resuscitated a thousand percent. He could even feel Airez's anger in his ears in silence.
"Anantha..!" Jerk Airez when winne doesn't talk either.
"Airez, calm yourself. I'll tell you" said Winne.
Winne explained at length without anything hidden, added or subtracted. Airez listened to him with forced patience. He doesn't like Moza, of course. But he would rather not like the fact that Aira has such a relationship with Erigo, the person he hates.
"I'll be home in two or three days. Don't try to say anything to Aira. Do you understand Anantha?" Cetus Airez's.
"I won't say anything. It's just, you should know that Aira really likes Airez. Don't make him sad" Winne said.
Airez pressed his voice. "I really can't take it. I'll see Anantha" Airez said and immediately closed the call.
Winne took a breath leaning back to calm herself down. The sleepiness is gone.
It is impossible to hide this from Airez. He will also know himself sooner or later because everything that happens Mouse Entertainment will still be monitored by the headquarters in America. It would be useless if he lied.
But the problem is, Aira will bear the anger of her brother even though Aira himself does not know anything.

Aira and Winne were having breakfast when the sound of 'beeping' sounded. Someone presses the Aira passcode again.
Surprisingly Aira's mother came in to follow her father. They both stood up.
"Hi mother, father.." Winne approached both of Aira's parents and hugged them at a glance.
"Hi Winne dear, is your news good?" Ask Aira's mother to smile.
"I'm a good mother" replied Winne. "Dad, mom sit down first" he said.
Aira's father smiled briefly at Winne before staring at Aira who had just stood there just to look at her.
Aira's father's face turned serious.
"Couple your stuff Aira, and come with me home"
Straightly. Firm and indisputable.
Aira had expected that her mother and father would tell her to go home, but she did not expect that her father had come to pick her up for the apartment himself.
Winne quickly pulled Aira's hand into the room. "We'll get dad ready first" he said hurriedly.
Winne pushed Aira into the room and shook Aira's shoulder. "Conscious Aira, there is no point in refuting. Pack your clothes, bring your cell phone too and make sure it's always on. You should always be in touch." Speak quickly.
Frans Maxim Zuma is a loving person, but also known to be hard and firm especially regarding his children and his company. She is also possessive of her daughter, Aira.
Winne could already estimate that Aira's father was now very angry. How not, he had already allowed Aira to get out of the house and live alone. He has also let Aira work at Mousent as a regular employee, a stylist. He even let Aira work without anyone knowing that he was the son of Frans Maxim Zuma.
With the news about Erigo and Aira, as well as the media mentioning the matter of an ordinary 'stylist' who became a celebrity 'infidelity', his father must have felt very silly and humiliated. He would definitely not let go of the people behind this rumor so easily. Just imagining it made Winne shudder.
Aira herself deeply understood the harsh nature of her father. It is better not to argue and obey obediently for now, and speak carefully when his father is calmer.
