The Obsession of the Actor
Drake's remorse

There are things that Kania likes the most. Seeing many different paintings made her happy. Tonight, no one will be able to prevent him from going to the Painting Exhibition. Using a mask and glasses to cover her face, Kania did not want anyone to realize her existence let alone her scandal was still hotly talked about by people.

The theme of this exhibition is the painter's love journey. Kania stepped inside. Silent and yet soothing. In the first painting, a woman was shopping at a supermarket. The corner of Kania's lips lifted, her lips curved into a smile.

“Definitely a romantic painter type.”

Slowly but surely, Kania explores the paintings one by one. In the last painting he had to swallow the bitter reality. A sad end. A silhouette of a woman carrying a suitcase and walking towards a meadow with a cloudy sky.

“I'm a happy ending team, but yasudah,” lamented.

Kania walked back. A man was observing the first painting. No stranger, seems familiar. “Joshua,” Og Kania.

The man in the shirt suit turned his head, both of his eyebrows raised. “Who?” ask him confusedly.

Kania lowered her glasses and mask.

“Kania,” exciting Joshua. “Woaah I did not expect to meet you here.”

Kania smiled. “I also did not expect. So you like painting too?”

Joshua nodded. “Yes, the painter is my friend.”

“Then tell your friend, a beautiful painting but I am sad because it has to be sad ending,” he said while laughing.

“Of course I will tell him because I am also a happy ending team like you.”

Glancing at her watch, Kania must go home immediately if she does not want Drake to get angry. “I have to go home, Josh. See you.” Just turned around. Suddenly unable to step when a man was standing not far from him.

“Drake—you're here?”

“To catch you with other men.”

Kania glanced at Joshua for a moment. “Unlike your shadow. I accidentally met Joshua. You misunderstood.”

Drake pulls Kania's wrist. His eyes sharpened when he saw Kania's hand held by Joshua. “Let go my lover.”

“You hurt him, dude.”

“Not your business. Release!” Drake is not losing.

Kania looked at Joshua. Nodding signals to release his hand. Until it was completely detached, Drake pulled it out of the exhibition hall. There were no words thrown from the man. his composure was accompanied by a flat look. As far as the car goes, Drake is silent.

“I didn't come with him, Drake. I just accidentally met him at the Exhibition.”

“Drake—listen to me. I really didn't lie to you.” Kania feels guilty. I heard a long breath coming from his lips.

The car was suddenly deflected until it made a squeak. Reflek held both of his heads, Kania slowly opened her eyes.

“If you want to go to the Exhibition why not tell me? I can drive you. You really want to fight me hm?” Drake grabs a swipe of Kania's cheek.

“I don't want to trouble you—again our scandal is still being talked about people. I don't want our togetherness to be more exposed by the media.”

“Personation with people—Kania. I don't care at all.”

“But you're public figure—Drake! Whereas I'm just a regular guy who's not used to being chased by cameras and being poked with questions about personal matters. Our world is so different—you realize it?”

“Our world is different, but you can enter my world and I can enter your world. We can run a different World by staying together.”

Kania shakes. “I think it's impossible.”

“Then will you be with that man?” ask Drake. “You drive me crazy—Kania. Why do you keep avoiding me?”

“I just need time alone.”

“But you look happy when you were with that guy.”

Kania speechless.

“OK I understand.” After that Drake runs his car. This time at average speed. Without saying again—without any more conversation between the two of them. Their disposition was indeed equally stubborn, no one wanted to budge.

~~

Morning—Kania is ready with hoddie and jeans. Don't know where Drake's going to take him, which he's certainly a little scared of. He did not stop squeezing both of his hands.

The car stopped in front of a building. Kania down, following the steps Drake had walked first. Arriving in a room, he saw a lot of golf equipment.

“You can play golf?” ask Drake.

Kania shakes.

“Truly can't?”

Kania nodded again.

Selecting the equipment needed. Drake held Kania's hand. Walk to the golf club. There were already a couple there. They approached with a big smile.

“Hai—Kania I finally met you again,” greet Jean hugging Kania.

“I'm glad to see you again,” reply Kania.

“You can play?” ask Jean.

Kania shakes. “I can't. Really can't.”

Jean laughed lightly. “You learned?” bargained for.

“Ehm—it looks like I'd better watch it. Learning from the beginning is very tiring, right?”

“You are very candid—Kania. I like,” reply Jean. “Alright I will also sit with you and enjoy tea.”

Drake who was beside Kania smiled slightly. Perhaps this was the first time he had seen Kania who was smiling while being nearby. Kiss the cheek of Kania quickly. “Wait for me,” he said before stepping away.

“Owh he can be like that too,” Jean said as she shook her head.

Kania raised her shoulders. “He was unexpected.”

Kania and Jean sit back and enjoy a cup of tea and light cake. While two men are competing to score the perfect point to win.

“Hei—how about your scandal?” ask Duke.

“I didn't think about it.”

“Affects your work?”

“Of course—some brands cancel cooperation.”

“You okay?”

Drake rubbed his sweat. “You don't have to worry about it—I'm a lot, Duke. If my money runs out I can also ask you.”

“Basic,” cibir Duke. “I think Kania really messed up your life. I suggest you better leave it. After all many women outside like Kania.”

Drake suddenly stopped. Staring sharply at the Duke who is now racking his waist. “Close your mouth!”

“Why? Don't you usually get bored with women? Leaving one woman is not a problem, is it? after all you must have tasted it to bored.”

“DUKE! WATCH YOUR WORDS!” Drake slammed on Duke's jaw. The man held his jaws which felt pain.

Afterwards the Duke did not retaliate for Drake's actions. The man laughed so hard he held his stomach. “You are very funny—Drake.”

“You are crazy,” sneer Drake.

“You love Kania. Don't shirk, just admit it if you love her. So that she does not run away from you I suggest treat her well.”

“YOU ARE CRAZY DRAKE—WHY HIT MY HANDSOME HUSBAND THIS?” jean's screams came closer. Behind him was a worried looking Kania.

“Sweetie I'm fine. I just told Drake something this stupid.”

“There's a problem?” ask Kania next to Drake.

Drake. Smiling gently made Kania stunned. “No.” Drake's hand moved with Kania's hand. “Come go.”

“Where did you go after hitting my husband?” jean asked to block Drake.

Drake rolled his eyes lazily. “You're overreacting Jean. He is strong ‘play’ for hours with you but overcome my blow alone time can not?”

Jean closed her mouth. “Yaa, how do you know?” tanyanya astonished while shaking her head. “Oh don't-don't you see us ‘play’.”

Drake shook his head in disdain then immediately pulled Kania away from them.

“IT'S OVER? I'M COMING AND YOU GUYS ARE DONE?” yelled at someone who had just arrived.

Kania frowned, the man who was now approaching was familiar to him.

“Hai—Kania,” map.

“Joshua.”

“Who invited you?” drake's question sounded so piercing.

“My sister,” point Joshua at the woman standing behind.

 Drake turned his head, looking straight at the smiling couple. Duke and Jean walked over with each other. Duke pat Drake's shoulder slowly. “My brother-in-law could have taken it,” he said slowly.

“Sialan—today you're such a bitch, Duke!”
