Not a Substitute

C6 We're Impressed

“Like,” Reply Emi shy.

Violet smiled brightly. That means there's a good start to the moment. It's just that Steven and Emi's personalities are so different. Steven seems to be an Extrovert while Emi is an Introvert.

Emi and Steven returned to their apartment. Emi's setting up Steven's needs for tomorrow. Steven's approaching Emi. Emi who was conscious slowly moved away from Steven.

“My body stinks?” Steven kissed her clothes. He thought Emi was staying away from him because she smelled a bad smell.

Doesn't smell. My body is still fragrant.

Emi shook her head.

“Then why do you keep your distance from me?” Steven approached Emi again. Emi is moving away.

Brother Violet said I should be honest. Said Brother Violet, Brother Steven likes me. Inner Emi.

“I fell in love with Sister. I'm afraid of being rejected.” Emi emboldened herself.

“Why? I like you too. I can't possibly reject you.”

“I have a bitter experience. My Beloved ... My ex-boyfriend also lives in this apartment. The day we met in the elevator was the day I broke up with her because she was having an affair. I'm scared because Kak Stev has a lot of girlfriends.”

“They are just friends.” Steven explained.

“Really?”

“True.”

Emi is relieved. He has a chance.

“Tonight do not sleep in the guest room again. Sleep in my room. I'm lonely.”

Emi nodded her head. They slept together tonight. Just sleeping together without any other activity. Steven was too tired because of his job.

Bend day.

Emi drives a car to drive Steven to the set. But it looks like the GPS is pointing in the wrong direction. They're even headed somewhere else.

Emi's confused. It wakes Steven who is asleep. “Kak ...Brother ..”

“Kak, looks like I'm lost.”

Steven saw things around. He turned off and turned on the GPS again and typed the set. “Follow the requested path. I'm going to sleep again. If anything wake me.”

Emi obey GPS instructions. They were finally able to arrive on set in time. Steven quickly self-directed and did camera exercises and began shooting.

The character played by Steven is the antagonist. He wanted to get out of his comfort zone by taking on a different role than he used to.

Emi feels creepy when she sees Steven being a bad guy. But when the director said “cut” Steven changed again to his original nature.

“How do I act?” Steven asked Emi.

“Good.” Emi still can't get out many words.

“Good or good once?”

“Very good.”

...***...

Days continued. Emi is getting closer to Steven. Emi also began to be able to reveal her heart. But Emi still doesn't want to be touched Steven.

“Sister-in-law why don't Emi want me to touch? I also want to have a child like this cute Orange.” Steven vent again.

“Maybe there's something stuck in Emi's heart. Ask Emi what the problem is. Maybe he'll open his heart to you,” Violet's advice.

“Don't forget to give gifts to Emi,” advice Agus.

At Steven's apartment at night.

Steven had another rejection. “Em, what's the story to me?”

Emi saw Steven. She knew her duty as a wife was to serve her husband but there were things that frightened her. Emi ventured into telling stories. “Sister, I've slept with another man.”

Emi's reply left Steven speechless. He racked his brain to give the right answer to Emi. “I've also slept with other women. We're breakeven.”
