Who's That Woman?


That day Raya began to look agitated. Since coming to the set, Raya could think of nothing but Karan. Her persistence about who the woman who contacted her husband last night was still a scourge in her mind. Raya really was curious. Then, Raya's feelings get more chaotic as she gets some pretty astonishing news from the ad director she will star in. That the producer of the ad is Varen, the former lover and friend of Raya's college first. The world is so narrow for the Kingdom. He had to dodge Reagan, now working on a project financed by his former fiance. Luckily Raya did not meet the man in person because he was abroad.


The offer given to Raya is quite expensive. Raya pay can not be said to be cheap because the woman is included in the category of the highest paid model in Indonesia. However, Raya will not always get paid handsomely in every job. The woman kept thinking about what products would be advertised including whether the entrepreneur is still just pioneering or is a big entrepreneur. Raya always sets reasonable rates for new entrepreneurs to support their business, but the rates of his services will soar when the company is a large company.


And the famous perfume company this time is still relatively new. The product is still being launched next month. It is a new company founded by Varen. Maybe the branch company of that guy. But from the cooperation contract Raya read and signed, the salary given to Raya was quite large, almost touching the numbers usually given by reputable companies. Now Raya knows who's behind the company. It turns out that the ex-fiancee.


“Pak Varen himself asked me to contact you. He sent a message so that one of his models must be Raya Drisana. That's why I contacted you directly.” So the director conveyed to Raya about the reason for Raya's election as the main star of the ad. Raya is curious what causes Varen so want himself in this ad when there are many other models who are no less talented than him. Especially considering their relationship ended is not good. They were once almost married and canceled just because of a scandal. Not imagine how awkward it would be if they had to meet each other face to face.


Fortunately, Raya is quite professional in arranging herself so as not to get involved in emotions. Although her mind is still drifting far to where her husband is and now she works financed by her former fiance, but Raya can still do her job well. Everything was resolved without any shortcomings. The director and writer also love Raya's performance. Moreover, the position of Raya who is quite senior there makes other models can follow the example and learn how Raya behaves.


After the meeting for filming was over, Raya asked for permission to go home first. She had a lunch appointment with her husband which made her have to skip lunch with the staff from the production of the ad. There is no one to forbid or stop the Kingdom. Either because they are familiar with the position of Raya who is married or they are reluctant to protest at Raya. What is certain is that the supermodel managed to leave the set along with her manager.


“Why don't you ask to pick up Mr Karan? I'm sure he'll pick you up as soon as possible,” said the manager Raya who was confused to see the model was so busy fixing her makeup in the car. Though this is just a lunch made by a couple, but Raya's behavior is like she wants to do a magazine cover photo shoot.


Raya shook her head quickly. “Can't Brother. I don't want to trouble my husband. After all, I have not been to his office for a long time, so I myself have to pick up my husband,” explained Raya while still concentrating on her makeup. Today Raya is quite tense because she got a report from Ian about a woman who asked permission to see Karan. Surprisingly, Karan, who usually refuses other women to come to his room, suddenly gives permission to Ian. Karan's assistant had seen the woman's face but it was not very clear. He only mentioned that the woman was estimated to be about 10 years different from Karan. Women who are old enough.


But the thing is, when Raya contacts Karan to ask about their appointment, Karan makes no mention of the woman at all. Not explaining their meeting, Ian said the woman was still in his room for a while. Maybe about half an hour. Even today, the woman is still in the Karan office environment which makes employees there begin to question the identity of the woman.


Fifteen minutes later, Raya arrives in front of Karan's office lobby. He was immediately greeted by a company security guard who had known him and invited Raya to enter. Raya does not go straight to Karan's room, he chooses to observe around to find out who the woman said by Ian. After asking the receptionist, Raya finally found the woman. He was in the cafe, drinking a cup of coffee while talking through his cell phone. In the eyes of Raya, the woman was no prettier than her, but she had a firm posture and looked sturdy. If not an athlete, maybe the woman works in a field that requires physical strength.


Raya had longed to approach the woman, but she was not brave enough. What would he say to her? Raya is not like Karan who directly corner his partner with accusations of infidelity for no apparent reason, without solid evidence. Moreover, from the view of Raya now, it seemed like no special relationship had occurred between Karan and that woman. It may be that this is just unfounded jealousy of the Kingdom so that she can hallucinate by imagining nothing about her husband.


“I've met that woman. It seems like nothing strange happened,” Raya told Ian as the woman walked into the assistant's room.


Ian did not answer. The man seemed a little doubtful. “But Bu ..” Ian stopped his speech to filter out the words that were barely coming out of his lips.


With a curious face, Raya asked again, “But what?”


“I don't know if I can talk about this or not to you.”


“Why hesitate? Just tell me, I'll listen to you.”


Ian started to raise his voice. The man explained the awkwardness of what happened when the woman was in the room. The thing that seemed was Karan's expression that was so shocked when Ian brought the woman into the room. Not only surprised, Karan also looks a little.


“What? Afraid? Why?” tanya Raya was curious.


Ian shook his head. “I don't know, Mom. That's all I can see because after that, I asked Mr. Karan to come out.” He also could not hear the conversation that occurred in the room because in addition to preparing a special tool so that he could smoke in the room, Karan also made the room soundproof so that any chatter that happened inside there would not get to the outside.


Confusion and curiosity Raya increasingly become. What fear did Ian actually see? And why would Karan be afraid of that woman? What's more, who is that woman?
