MY LOVELY AUTHOR'S

TEACHER AND STUDENT PART 2

         Narrator’s POV

            “Sit.” Actor Rangga released his hand which has since continued to pull Arata's ear from Author Wallflower's apartment to Arata's own apartment next to Author Walflower's apartment.

            “Why did Master pick me up?” Arata grumbled while massaging his ears pulled by Actor Rangga. “Thanks Master, my image in front of Author so bury it??”

            “If that woman finally lets you go just because you lost all the popularity you have and your image, then you shouldn't keep that woman by your side, Arata.” Actor Rangga gave a warning to Arata with a sharp tone of voice. Actor Rangga then sat down in front of Arata and watched Arata closely. “Didn't your plan this time be a little rash, Arata? I know you're eager to avenge Bora the serpent woman? But if you go wrong, that plan will make you lose everything!”

            “Teacher asked Kak Rama about my plan??” Arata replied to Actor Rangga's question by turning around to ask. Arata's complaining face now turned into a serious face.

            “Yes, Rama is my confidant I put by your side, Arata. Ever since I first met you, I knew you looked a lot like me. You can cause a lot of trouble in the future, so I put Rama next to you. Moreover, your desire to become famous is for the sake of that woman, do you still remember that?”

            Arata smiled little considering the small promise he made when he first met Asha and received the first novel book by Author Wallflower. In the past, Arata never thought the woman he met was the author of the book from the book he received because Asha denied it when Arata asked.

            “Kelak. . I'll be the lead in Author Wallflower's novel to find my savior.”

            “Sure, I still remember, Guru.” Arata opened his mouth as he kept recalling his old memories. “Isn't that why Teacher accepted me as your student?”

            “Help me, Mr Rangga! I have to be famous to find a woman. I must be famous to find my savior. If I am not famous, finding it is something that feels impossible to do!!”

            Just like Arata, Actor Rangga thought the same thing. Actor Rangga remembers his old memories when he met Arata.

            “You have talent, young man. And seeing that you didn't give up after hearing so many bad comments directed at you, I appreciate your efforts, young man. Tell me the reason you continue to persist in this profession even after all the bad comments and failures you experienced!”

            “Yes, I did like you and chose you to be my student for that reason. But is Author Wallflower the woman you deserve to give everything to sacrifice everything you've achieved so far? Because of your efforts to save your Authorm, you almost lost everything because of your double-edged sword-like plan??”

            “Yes, Teacher. My beloved author is a woman who deserves to sacrifice everything so that she can be by my side and be mine. I am here, able to meet Master and become Master's student, all because of my Author's remark.”

            Actor Rangga let out a sigh hearing the determination and unhesitating answer that came out of Arata's mouth. This foolish disciple.... . how could I have liked him and raised him as my disciple?? He really imitated me.

            “Alright. . I won't argue over the matter anymore because even though you almost lost everything, you managed to solve it well, Arata.” Actor Rangga turned his gaze around Arata's apartment. “You should thank your loyal fans for their blessing, your project with your Authorm that was almost destroyed because of your arrogance was saved!”

            “I understand, Teacher. Thanks for the advice.”

            “You should also thank Rama, Nara, a spokesperson at the agency, the entire staff at the agency. .”

            Hearing Actor Rangga's long speech, Arata's eyebrows twitched in annoyance and knew that Actor Rangga's speech would not end quickly.

            “Teacher!!” Arata quickly cut off Actor Rangga's speech and saved his ear and a long speech that might not end quickly. “I know anyone I've bothered with this, Master. Teacher doesn't need to say it and remind me, I'll give them bonuses and work harder than ever.”

            “Good if you understand, Arata. Public figure figures may seem to have everything and are adored by many, but to get all the attention that public figure gives a great sacrifice. His life, his love story, and every step of the way will be in the spotlight because of the great attention you want. All that attention can make us fly up to the seventh heaven but at the same time, in an instant that attention can also make us fall into the deepest hell. I came here just to make you remember that, Arata.”

            Arata nodded his head in understanding. “One more time, thank you Teacher's advice. Hearing this advice, I know Master loves your students very much even though this student of yours is a troubled student who will trouble you so on.”

            Arata smiled slightly saying the sentence while the annoyed Actor Rangga heard the reality from Arata's mouth immediately grabbed a pillow on Arata's sofa and threw it at Arata with his might.

            Wush. . buk.

            The pillow fell right on Arata's face and made Arata slightly jerked because he was not ready to receive the pillow punch.

            “Teacher!!!! You hit me with a pillow?? I'm not a child anymore, Master!!! It hit me with a pillow! Isn't it enough that Master just nags and scolds me???”

CHAPTER “ Never enough. Blame yourself for being my student!! Because I am a Teacher who is not quite speechless!!” Actor Rangga smiled looking at Arata's annoyed face. “Are you going to continue living in this apartment, Arata?”

            Arata who had an upset face and was eager to throw a pillow nearby towards Actor Rangga to reply, said, immediately undo his intention because of the words of Actor Rangga who now actually discuss his apartment.

            “Ya, Master.”

            “Because of being close to your beloved woman? Or for any other reason?” Actor Rangga around watching the whole room in Arata's apartment. Actor Rangga even checked the balcony of Arata's apartment.

            “Yes, that's a big reason I chose to stay here, Guru.”

            Actor Rangga then sat down again on Arata's sofa after driving around and changed his expression to serious again. “Because you intend to continue living here and you care so much about your authority, I will advise you, Arata,”

            “What is it, Master?”

            “You're an idol who has a huge fan base. Your fan base may already be half the population in this country, Arata. Your fans may be supporting you, but not necessarily they will support your love story with Author Wallflower.”

             “I know it, Guru.” Arata tilted his head. “But. . I don't understand what Teacher meant to say to me.”

            The actor Rangga took out a black envelope from inside his suit pocket and threw it towards Arata. “Open it and you'll know what I mean, Arata.”
