Not a Substitute

B8 Handsome, Tall, Charismatic

“But I prefer Mas.” There was a little lie in Violet's words.

Agus started to smile. Quite often people compare him with the younger brother who is much more handsome than him.

“What do you like about me?”

Violet could not answer. It made the atmosphere become clumsy again between them.

The phone goes into Violet's phone. From unknown number. Violet raised it and activated speaker mode. “Halo ..”

“Sister-in-law. I kangen.” Steven's voice was heard on the other end of the phone.

Violet doesn't know how Steven knows his cell phone number. He didn't even give his phone number to Steven.

Agus immediately turned off the phone call. But Steven didn't give up. He called Violet again. “Kak Agus don't shut down. I'm bored of this. The shooting hasn't started yet.”

“Main has the same crew there. Jahilin them until you are satisfied.”

“I have to take care of the image, Brother. The actor is hard. Can't be wrong. Can't this it.” Steven venting. His life was exposed by the media. Wrong just a little, his career is at stake.

“Salah you yourself want to be an actor.”

“Kak, I was called staff. Bye.” Steven cut off his phone call because he was about to shoot.

“I didn't tell my phone number to Steven.” Violet did not want Agus to misunderstand.

“T need not be told. He can know for himself.”

“How to?”

Agus raised both his shoulders. “I don't know either.”

...***...

Violet doesn't want to be unemployed and at home. He wants to work and make money. He saw a casting offer. He asked Agus for permission. “Mas, can I come with this?” Violet shows an audition announcement for a movie.

“Bby.”

Violet started to prepare herself. He has long forgotten the world of acting because it prioritizes his education and career. Violet began to practice again a wide variety of expressions.

Steven helped Violet.

“Sister-in-law like this.” Steven made an angry look on his face. Although without dialogue but everyone can know what Steven's emotions.

“So Sister-in-law has ever played a movie?”

“I don't know that movie.” Steven tried to find information about Violet through online media but there was no news about Violet.

“Trus why Sister-in-law does not continue acting?”

“I prefer education and career in the company.” Violet chose a safer path. Actors do not have a steady income.

“I will train Brother from now on but I will not hesitate to get angry Sister-in-law if wrong.”

“Good Mr. Teacher.”

“Muridku now we have to eat. Chef Agus has cooked for us. Not learning in a hungry stomach.”

In the dining room.

“How much is this apartment?” Violet asked.

“One unit of this apartment costs 5 M.”

“5 billion!?”

“Betul. But I can stay free next door. I want to stay with Agus. My sister-in-law can stay here? Next to me lonely.”

“Search girlfriend there.” Agus answered. He wanted to make Steven more independent. His nature is still too childish at the moment.

“Sister-in-law has chosen what agency?” Steven asked.

“But.”

“If you enter the agency can get more jobs,” Steven said. An agency usually has connections to a production house.

“Really?”

“Pay to my agency. The leader is a good man.”

“What is the lead like?” Violet curious.

“He is handsome, tall, charismatic.” Steven praised himself.

“Since when did you become the head of the agency?” Agus went with nimbrung. Handsome, tall and charismatic are typical of Steven.

“Since this second.”

“It's not that easy. The higher-ups will object.”
