The Passion of the Actor
Chapter 54's

"Okay, don't be mad at me. I'm just asking" said Elrick. Just realized that Raya could also be angry.

"So, Mas Elrick is like the people in my village who accuse me of selling myself" he said.

Both were silent for a moment. It's a very sensitive thing for Raya, Elrick understands that, so he wants to take a break first. "Raya, did you never think that you were actually framed by someone who wanted to sell you the same pimp?"

Raya. Looking towards Elrick. Even if he never thought about it. Elrick's right, he could've framed someone for sale. Since she was raped, why did she get to the hotel? it must be because someone brought him there.

He looked at Elrick's face. Getting what the man thought had a point, too.

"But if so, or tell me that someone set me up, it's still wrong that the man who fucked me. I hateit. May he be punished for what he did to me" said Raya enthusiastically.

"What punishment do you expect to happen to him?"

"Whatever punishment you want. If it could be hard punishment move on from me. So let him keep the same shadow on my face, and not be able to love another girl, and also be followed by a lifetime of guilt!"

Elrick. "Lo doesn't know Ray, if all your words have happened" he said.

"Udah, don't talk about it, Mas. I can't remember the face of that jerk."

"If for example he comes to confess wrong to you, apologize to you, how do you react? you want to forgive him?"

"Huh?" tanya Raya did not understand. Staring at Elrick with his confused gaze.

"Gini, let's just say I raped you, what would you tell me?"

"Hahahaha.." Great laugh broke out. Staring at Elrick with an amused face until tears appeared in the corner of his eyes.

"Kok you laughing anyway? I'm serious."

"Yes out, I'm funny anyway. Where might mas who has done that to me, if yes, I would have asked dong to marry me. But it's impossible, other than I'm not Mas, Elrick has never been to our village."

Elrick shut up. Don't know what else to say. Though he was ready to admit his mistake, but Raya's reaction made him speechless, to undo his intentions.

***

Oma who felt suspicious of Elrick's behavior all this time, now increasingly convinced that Elrick did put a sense in Raya, and he supported it. Dipa had expressed her intention to Raya but was rejected by the girl, so Nani decided to try on her other grandchildren.

He will not force, if Raya does not also like Elrick, then Nani's decision to raise Raya as her adopted granddaughter is increasingly wide open, but if Raya wants to marry Elrick, for example, Oma would be even happier.

"What else, Miss universe? I'm in this meeting" said Elrick, who finally picked up Nani's phone.

"So the grandmother made an agreement with Raya in the cinema, and was waiting for the film to be screened, but because Oma's head was sick, without saying anything to Raya who was waiting in line, Oma went home leaving her alone there. Oma wants help, you pick Raya up. Pity he does not know the ins and outs of this Jakarta city. What else he went alone," Oma said before disconnecting her phone.

"But, Oma.." Nani's sentence just hangs in the clouds. Elrick snorted in annoyance. He always did whatever he wanted to do and let Elrick do it all.

"Gas, Lo continue the meeting. I had an important need" said Elrick, taking his phone on the table and rushing to the elevator.

Just as the elevator opened, Elrick entered, from the other elevator, Meyra arrived on that floor. "Mr Elrick's inside?" ask her with complete arrogance.

"Sorry, Ma'am. Mr. Elrick just got out" said secretary Elrick flatly. He had indeed not liked the super arrogant Meyra for a long time.

"Where to?"

"Sorry, Ma'am. I don't know, the boss didn't leave a message."

Meyra decides to contact Elrick, but is not appointed either. Repeatedly trying to stay still did not get results, so decided to just go home.

'Where are you?'

'We met at the Star pub, yeah.'

***

From a distance Elrick had seen the girl's frightened face, sitting on the red sofa where the visitors were waiting for the film to be screened. His face was wryly looking for the figure of Oma who did not come.

Elrick pityed to see it. Oma was outrageous, leaving the stupid girl alone, disinclined pop corn in the left hand and a ticket in the right hand.

Elrick approached, and stroked his shoulders. Raya turned her head in shock, and suddenly her tears melted down her cheeks. The girl cried to the point of confusing Elrick

"Raya, why are you crying? does it hurt my toel?" Elrick's feelings he didn't use at all calm to touch Kingdom. Why is the girl crying?

Raya shook her head, with tears on her cheeks, hands full of handles making Raya look so cute and adorable. "Lo why cry anyway?"

"I was scared, Mom. Oma's not going back and forth. I'm confused as to what to do."

"Kan Lo can call Oma" Elrick said, laughing. The swearing in her face is funny. Like a kid who just got saved while lost in the mall.

"Don't bring it..."

"Huh? How can?"

"So Oma stopped by the laundry, took me and said she wanted to eat meatballs. So I got in the car without my wallet, what else is a cell phone. Brought here, kept Oma missing," she said still crying.

Elrick is so sorry. The omanya is outrageous. The man sat beside Raya. Remove the tears on the cheek of the girl, and come to the moment of the ridiculous style of the films. The two were fixated, staring at each other intently, each swimming into that ocean of beautiful eyeballs.

Elrick was the one who woke up first. "Ehem. I'm already here. Yes, we go home" he said, calming his heart.

"But this?" Raya showed both her hands. Elrick weighed for a moment. That hick girl must have never seen a movie in the cinema. Since Oma had been working on it, then in order to make up for Oma's mistake, Elrick decided to replace Oma's role to accompany Raya watching."

"We'll see, how?"

Hesitating and embarrassed, Raya nodded. He also wondered what it was like to watch in a movie theater.

Elrick got up, and took the pop corn and also the ticket out of the hands of Raya. "Come on."

What they don't know, since then the motion of the two is being monitored by someone at the other end. Not visible, but smiling at the behavior of both. Oma is the champion if she is Cupid.

Raya can only follow in Elrick's footsteps, paying attention to what the man is doing, giving tickets to the movie theater's doorman. Because the movie they were going to watch had already begun, the lights had been extinguished, they had to feel in the gela looking for the stool.

Afraid of falling, Elrick spontaneously pulled Raya's hand tightly and led her to their seat in the top third row.

During the movie, Raya was very focused, not at all excited to enjoy the pop corn or drinks they ordered after being inside.

While Elrick actually spent his time staring at the beautiful face of Raya in the light from the big monitor.

Back his heartbeat did not work well, beating even faster.

Seeing the girl's seriousness, Elrick smiled and picked up a single seed of pop corn that was feeding onto her lips, Raya who was hypnotized by the romantic movie opened her mouth unconsciously who was feeding her. Then for the second time, Raya turned to the side, and..

Bam!

Accidentally the lips of the two stuck together involuntarily, and the eyes of the two stared at each other. The Rush Kingdom pulled her body, slightly away from Elrick to calm her heart thump.

"Oh my God, what just happened?" he held the heat on his face. Shame and must what attitude he showed Elrick later?

It turned out that not only was Raya panicking, Elrick also became nervous due to that unexpected kiss. "For a long time I could have a heart attack, this!"
