Crazy Love of the Actor
(Part 4: Naive)

“Syil, look, new artist.” Andi nudged Syila's leg, Syila automatically looked, the artist referred to Andi is a woman in her 30s, her name fluttered this year, even though she started her career from the age of a dozen, but his film career was just flat, last he played a big screen movie, which was a little vulgar, then the film brought his name to be known. So it is said that the new artist, he means just to go to class.

“Crazy, really rough Syil, he threw it just a bag to his assistant, very different if on TV.” Andi blabbed, Syila was upset because she was writing.

“Wah nice tuh make a lead role, I want to ask the casting boss him ah.”

“Eh Crazy! Girl so you want to be the main role, already know his behavior so, you are not afraid, if he is difficult to be invited to cooperate?” Andi protest.

“Why is it hard?” Syila pretended not to know.

“Yes, look, it deserves just this year he was successful, even though from the age of a dozen starting a career, his behavior is so, kebayang not if he will be big head as to what if you follow our film shooting.”

“That's it, usually people like that, the level of hypocrisy is high and he will be able to be anyone very well, which sometimes people are difficult to do because it makes no sense, but because of the hypocritical nature of it, but because of the hypocrisy, he can play it better, than his good heart really.” The theory that Syila believed, but actually may not be true.

“Au ah, handover lu.” Andi continued eating them.

“Syil, Juna kemaren come to my mom's house, I'm looking to nguping anyway.” Andi sometimes stayed a few days at Syila's house.

“Ngapain him!” Syila.

“It looks like it means to bed you deh.”

“Wah, Juna!!!” Syila is upset she will scold Juna for doing something outrageous.

“Syil, where to go!” Andirber shouted because Syila just ran, without turning her head, the fried rice was also not spent.

Syila intends to go to Juna's apartment, he does not like the way rough in their relationship, Juna apparently has crossed the line from what Syila lines for him to be able to pass, Juna seems to have crossed the line, the boundary was clear and now Juna was casually crossing that line.

Syila drives rough, fortunately she is good at driving. Not long after Syila arrived at Andi's apartment, she went straight to the elevator without reporting first, because she already had a card to go up to Juna's unit, the card must be attached to the elevator when it will push the elevator button to the apartment unit.

When the elevator door was about to close, a man ran towards the door and held down the elevator door, Syila then stepped aside, being annoyed he did not notice the man who had just entered the elevator was Izraa.

[Where are you!] Syila called Juna who had not picked up the phone.

[In the office, why? How rude?] Juna pretended not to know.

[Gue's in the apartment right now, back right now!] Syila's upset.

[Sorry I can't.] Juna refused.

[Jun, you're totally outrageous!] Syila was angry, without caring that there was anyone beside her, especially aware that it was Izraa.

[Why the hell?]

[Jun, all this time I've been trying to maintain our relationship, because I love you, but my dear it's just friends or family! Like I love Andi, to my brother, Alzam. But, the way you came to mami papi, is really outrageous!!!] Syila shouted unconsciously.

[Snakes .... ]Juna sounds soft, [gue doesn't know how to touch your heart.] Juna is still trying to reach Syila's heart.

[Lu don't have to bother touching my heart Jun, because love can't be forced, love that comes even with a single meeting, an accidental touch or just hearing a voice, when the heart is not able to feel as you feel, it means that my heart does not choose you, that is the fact, do not meet me first, you actually make me disappointed.] Syila said it more calmly, but deep enough.

While Izraa who was not interested in this female temperament and was quite disturbed by her screams, became more interested in Syila because her last words, were so deep and penetrating, she said, one of the luxuries for Izraa who was never able to feel, was touched her heart by anyone.

Because of Syila's last sentence, Izraa immediately noticed Syila whose face looks red, in his view, Syila is ordinary, beautiful in general, small in stature and strong impressed, the way her clothes are simple, simple, long-sleeved jerseys, long jeans and sneakers, the last little backpack on her back, it all felt ordinary, but Syila's last sentence on Juna, was enough to make Izraa interested.

The elevator door opened, Izraa came out, Syila still did not pay attention to the man next to her, when Izraa came out, Syila looked at Izraa's bronze statue, then tried to close the elevator door, but before the elevator door closed perfectly, Izraa turned around violently, Syila was shocked because of that and was forced to look at the face of the man who had been with her in the elevator, immediately seeing that face, Syila retreated, she just realized, it was Izraa, it was, then Izraa gave a smile to Syila just before the elevator door was completely shut.

After that, Syila was sitting limp, she regretted having been rude earlier, Syila hoped Izraa would not notice her face if she met later.

...

“Artist habits on the set brought up, already this hour has not come, late.” Ammar's boss was angry that Izraa had not come yet, but they had been waiting for a long time, about 30 minutes.

Today is Izraa's schedule for casting formalities in the presence of Ammar's Boss, Bang Aji Ariawan, he is her director and Syila the writer who likes to interfere.

“Good afternoon all.” Izraa comes in a shirt and pants suit slim fit, Syila can not deny that Izraa is handsome.

“Sore, direct from Za.” Ammar boss looks a little tidy.

Izraa began to speak his dialogue in accordance with the script that had been given a few days ago, everyone who was there was amazed, Syila was ordinary, because she already knew and was able to imagine it even before this day happened, Syila was satisfied because everyone seemed to be caught up in the imagination that Izraa created, the world that Shila presented to Izraa, she said, like a vessel that finds its master.

15 Minutes Izraa read the dialogue, everyone was not even aware that she was done, Syila clapped her hands, reminding that the dialogue was over, Boss Ammar looked shocked because he was so enjoying, so much so, bang Aji looks surprised, because he is actually making the structure of the plot and also the plot situation, everyone really felt confident that this film would be a quality film with the acting standards of a qualified Izraa.

“Mas Izraa, on some words at the beginning of the sentence, should be pressed even more, there instead of Syila already gave a sign with the letter bolded ya?” Syila protested, as she also arranged a dialogue with the director.

“I think soft pronunciation makes more sense, so I do not follow the directions.” Izraa.

Syila smiled cunningly, she dropped to make Izraa even more up.

“But Mas, the .... “

“Syil is good so many times, softer, because it is a romantic scene, it's really Izraa, if he presses in a few words, later the effect is not like that dalem, but more to anger.” Bang Aji defended Izraa, in Syila's heart said, got it!

“Iya Syil, I think so too, it is better to be made soft only.” Ammar's boss comes to Izraa's defense, Syila pretends to put on an upset face, but she cheers, eventually the two important people in the film accept her choice, because if they don't like Izraa to the end, it would definitely be difficult for Syila to focus on their film.

“Ok, Izraa, we talked in the meeting room yes, about the cooperation contract letter and the filming schedule.” Boss Ammar looks excited.

“Bos, Syila does not come yes, Syila no need.” Syila interrupted Ammar's boss who led everyone to the meeting room.

“Say want to join the filming process, just started already?” Ammar boss is out.

“Enak! Syila has not written 5 hours, the idea will run away from the brain, Syila must go now.” When Syila said that Izraa slightly glanced at the author, in her mind, arrogant once this writer, she did not want to join the meeting, but in the next second, Izraa seemed to realize something and smiled cynically.

“Yaudah, but the day after, yes, we will start the first day reading workshop, with all players.” Boss Ammar reminded.

“Iya.”

“Syil, sure you don't want to cast another actor tomorrow?” The Assistant Boss asked.

“No, Syila already promised not to interfere, yaudah, Syila same Andi pamit ya.” Then Syila went with her cousin who was also the Manager.

“Ndi, Syila want to go to the toilet yes, wait here.” Syila ran, she had actually been wanting to go to the toilet, but was delayed out of fear, fearing that Izraa would come and she was late to see the quality of her acting.

“Don't be long!” Andi then walked to find a bench to sit around the toilet.

When she was done with her business, Syila rushed to get out, she ran small to make it faster, knowing she was a petite woman, so her steps were short. When he came out of the toilet he was still running small, but his steps stopped because someone pulled his hand and made his body slam back, then hit someone's body, and then hit someone's body, Syila reflex elbowed the person's stomach and made a lock motion, now that her position was reversed, Syila was already behind the person who pulled her hand and the person's hand was locked to the back of her body by Syila, she said, within seconds, Syila was able to change things, she was indeed a petite woman capable of self-defense.

“Who are you! What do you want!” Syila pulled the man's hand back, the man was ordinary, not looking in pain or trying to take it off, he laughed softly.

“This is me Syila.” Syila only realized that it was Izraa, she took off her tight lock, then pushed Izraa's body, her attitude stiffened and formal.

“You, small can hold my body high like this ya.” Izraa had already turned around and looked at Syila firmly.

“Sorry, Syila thinks you're the bad guy who wants to rob or something.”

“Nothing, your martial arts are good enough, but if I'm really a bad guy, I won't be as gentle as earlier.”

Izraa then left after saying it, Syila was confused, she felt strange, why was it exciting, and now she was gone, really strange people, but Syila thought it was still acceptable, he finally continued his small run and approached Andi, to immediately go to a cafe, he wanted to rush to write.
