“Kak,”
“Hmm,”
“According to sister, if brother is offered to be my rich artist, will you accept or ngak?” Yunita idly asked as she was a little bored by the traffic jam that was in front of them.
“Why? You're messing around now at home?” her brother, who is indeed the most mysterious, cleverly answers questions with other questions.
“Hmm, a litle bit? But there is no desire to go back too anyway, at least until I have a little success so,”
“Yes, if you are probably going to do the same with you, if you have nothing to worry about,”.
“Means?”
“Then, I thought that if you sacrificed yourselves to follow all your will, it would all end up in your brother. Brother did not think that you would also be forced like a brother,”
“I hate him” saw the scene of a clean night sky without the slightest star, making him liken his life path like the night sky, which is, clean like a new sheet that will be painted with stars that are the results of the achievement later.
“Already, do not think again," said his brother, "Eh, by the way, about the name Andre earlier, not Andre that you had met in Singapore was not?”
“Ah, indeed he is,” he replied casually because it was okay for him to reveal it to his very understanding sister.
“WHAT?! Seriously you? Andre whose parents are super rich?” seeing her brother's somewhat excited response, she slightly doubted her judgment just now. She had little doubt as to whether this brother would keep the secret from her mother for now or not.
Unfortunately, due to traffic jams, Yunita must tell her brother who is very bitter to know about the story of his relationship with Andre throughout their journey. As long as she was telling stories, her brother was only smiling; occasionally shaking his head; and also patting her hands.
“So. But don't talk to your mom first. Please,” the reason he does not want his mother to know about Andre who used to actually also had time to confide, is because he does not want his mother to look bad Andre and become accusing Andre like his father earlier.
“iya, ngak will,” answers his brother despite looking dubious, but he has no choice but to believe it.
When they arrived, Yunita was not escorted into the apartment, her brother just dropped her in front of the lobby and went straight home for work. Naturally, because he had seen firsthand how his brother stayed up until 4 am just for the sake of reading a thick case report. He himself might immediately give up if he had to deal with such a thick document.
However, her brother's hard work seems to bear sweet fruit, she can find out just by looking at the contents of the apartment that her brother has. The apartment impressed quite luxurious for him; had three bedrooms; a spacious balcony and can be used to hang out; a spacious living room; and; even the kitchen was quite relieved for 2 people to move freely simultaneously.
Without much pleasantries, he immediately looked for the master bedroom that had a bathroom to use as his bedroom. In addition to feeling more private; he is also already familiar with the bedroom that has a bathroom in it. After choosing a room and put his clothes in the closet, look at the clock that has shown at 10 pm, he delayed doing the cleaning that he had planned when he saw the dust stuck on the floor since he entered.
This habit, he did after seeing Liani who was typing something seriously in her laptop. Liani herself considers a Diari as a place to tell her feelings, burdens, and every incident she experiences. And, unknowingly, he who initially followed his friend, even became a constant because he always felt relieved after writing the diary.
...***...
The next day, Yunita was with Stefani— actually with Andre and Dimas too, but because of fear that someone recognized Andre, Dimas and Andre were finally left at one of the cafe—they both went to the PH office according to what was listed on Kak Alika's business card.
From the outside, the building looks mediocre, just a 3-story building that looks minimalist with a touch of full glass panels in some parts that add to the modern impression. However, the splendor was hidden within it. After passing through the receptionist— section which looks ordinary—they are greeted with a frenzy of people who look meeting in some medium-sized room which again the wall is made of glass.
Climbing up to the 2nd floor, they were greeted with a slightly unique sight on their right side. If most offices will probably use a wide straight table, another case with the office where Alika's legs work; they use a hexagon table that is also used by 6 people, he said, and without any bulkhead at all.
On the left side, they returned to meet some of the glass-walled rooms—but this time it was all blurry, aka invisibility—receptionist who walked in front of them then drove them into one of the rooms; which turned out to be Alika's room. Brother Alika welcomed the two of them with a big smile adorning her face, as if already looking forward to her arrival.
“So, how? Already sure of your decision or still need time to think again?” ask Alika, inviting them to sit down.
Somehow, the question of Alika's brother sounded a bit sarcastic for him, as if placing him as a pretender who sold expensive with the golden opportunity offered by Kak Alika.
Not wanting an opportunity of this magnitude to be damaged just because of his silly feelings, he chose to ignore the allegations, “Aduh, sorry brother. You see my parents are a little strict about the name of education,”
“Ok, the important thing is that you have decided, right? In that case, just sign a contract and brief briefing about your role, your schedule, and the things you have to prepare, be it soft skills and others,” Kak Alika then rise from her seat; walking back to his desk, taking some documents and putting them on the front desk of Yunita and Stefani, “Ah, what if your friend is a temporary assistant? It's okay, right?” added Kak Alika while looking for something in the pile of paper and maps.
“Weight ng work kak?” Stefani asked in a somewhat quiet voice,
“Not much really, just remind the filming schedule aja, and ready if you call later,” Stefani look pondered for a while before finally nod approving to be Yunita's assistant, “Nah, this. Sign here, and also here,” managed to find the document he wanted, Alika then put a transparent map in blue in front of Yunita, Kak Alika, then direct him to signature on any part.
After all the formalities, Alika gave Yunita some brief knowledge about the web drama she starred in; starting from what role she played, acting classes she had to follow, filming schedule, and, up to detail things about adjusting clothes with various scenes to come.
“Wah, bothered also turned out to be an artist yes,” Stefani said when they were heading to the lobby where Pak Budi, Andre's driver, was waiting for them. He did not expect, for a fairly simple role like this; a role in which, according to Kak Alika, he would only perform for about 10 to 15 minutes, requires so much preparation.
“Tau, kirain cave also just come, shoot, go home. It turns out that it was complicated to ask for forgiveness,” he complained. Now, he could understand why Andre was a little against his idea when he said he wanted to be an artist.
In the lobby, Mr. Budi greeted them with a smile, while helping to bring the pile of documents to be put in the back of the trunk—because Kak Alika added several books about acting lessons and also books of the same genre as the web drama she will star in for read as refraction.
Once in the car, he immediately rewinded the back of his chair until it was slightly tilted, then closed his eyes and pondered back whether the path he had chosen now was correct or not.
