The Passion of the Actor
Chapter 64's

"Seriously, is she a widow?" ask Meyra enthusiastically. He's getting excited. For whatever the status of the Kingdom will be a hindrance to Elrick, if it still wants the Kingdom. According to Meyra, marrying a village widow will definitely lower Elrick's prestige.

"Seriously. Well, I took her husband. Take it easy, he's nothing. Which might be as good as Mas Elrick would be with him. Maybe like you said earlier, forced by her grandmother, because the old grandmother likes the cupu," explained Lani.

As much as possible mimic her face made flat. For him not, a huge upset hit the recesses of his heart. He certainly did not accept why Raya always got good luck.

First, he and his mother had sold the girl, but Dika was still willing to accept it. Then she had also seized her husband, made Raya miscarry, even had to divorce Dika, but now even close to a CEO who is rich, successful and very handsome.

When compared to Dika, Elrick was like a high sky, no one could reach him let alone the people from the village like himself and also Raya. So why did fate put the girl by his side?

"Lo must help me, teach the widow a lesson!" as Meyra felt triumphant. It's too early to pat the chest.

"You take it easy Mey, I'll be faithful when you want to teach her a lesson. I don't want him to be able to live quietly either. Dika divorced me too must be because of him too. If my ex-husband doesn't compare me to him, how could I be divorced! So, in other words, I got divorced also because of her!" said Lani clenching her fists full of anger.

Raya still dries the customer's cloth when Ranti comes to her and says Dipa is in front waiting for her.

Since the quarrel two days ago, Dipa had never appeared at Oma's house, which she did not automatically meet with.

"Say wait a minute, Ran. I want to finish this one, "he answered showing me one shirt he's been drying with the other.

"Hi... Am I disturbing?" Dipa's voice was so slow, and her gaze was so sad.

"Hi. no. It's finish. You're here, aren't you working?" Raya has invited Dipa to sit in the front room.

"Work, go home. Ray, I can ask for your time, accompany me to walk for a while, yes" she asked with a pleading face. Raya is not happy to refuse, after all they are friends. Dipa has helped him a lot.

***

Dipa took Raya to a park surrounded by very beautiful scenery, with a small artificial lake that became an icon of the place. It was still three in the afternoon, so the usual park in ABG habitation for courtship was very quiet. There are only a few elderly people sitting, to enjoy the scenery and tranquility of nature like this.

Both are still wrapped in silence. Raya doesn't want to talk, she just doesn't know what to say. Instead, Dipa had many things she wanted to tell Raya, but did not know where to start.

"The..." Raya who felt that it was enough to give a grace time for Dipa finally opened her voice.

"I hate it, Ray. I have been so jealous of him since. He has everything I want, even my parents are so loving, then why did my parents kill my parents?" dipa asked without looking at the Kingdom that was beside her. The afternoon breeze she let caress her handsome face, trying to make her not to be sad anymore.

"Do you know, he was also hurt when he learned of what happened to your parents? Mas Elrick really loves Aunt and her om. You know, on your own, if only from your parents, he's getting the affection he didn't get from his parents. He was sad, and hurt just like you when the news came. You were very small at the time. You lost your parents when you were in Junior High, but he... Mas Elrick, he lost his parents younger than you. At that time his mother left, and not long after his father left, but you still have some time with your parents. After the departure of his parents, he can raise his head again, because of the affection and attention of your parents."

Back silence. The sound of swans swimming in the lake became the center of their attention for a moment.

All this time they thought the accident was a single accident, but it turns out there was sabotaging Dipa's parents' car and also a car in charge of mopping the car to hit the road barrier very strongly.

Dipa perverted silent. He realized this had nothing to do with Elrick. He himself did not know that his parents planned all this. But seeing Elrick she will remember Silvira's face, Dipa has the right to vent hatred on her cousin and consider Elrick worthy of accountability.

"You're defending him, Ray?"

"I'm not defending Mas Elrick, but saying what I can see from the look on his face that night.

"Do you like him very much?" ask Dipa with hot chest. He thought because he was the first one to meet Raya, then he was the one who deserved it more.

Raya fell silent. Termangu heard Dipa's sudden question that cornered her heart. He himself had no idea how he felt about Elrick, but like anything, it was impossible to materialize.

Raya was once disappointed and betrayed by an actor who was his own best friend, to the point of divorce. Raya knows how bad people we love are taken away. So, he couldn't possibly keep the flavor on Elrick. He did not want to be considered an Actor by Meyra.

"Ray..."

"I respect Mas Elrick. He helped me a few times. But not to love. I know my position too well. I'm aware of my place" said Raya smiling wryly.

"good. You better not expect him. Never put his heart on her. My cousin is not a man who can love anyone but himself."

Raya looked ahead. The expanse of scenery and the colors of flowers decorate as far as he looked.

Why is life so complicated. Can't every human get their happiness? Suddenly he remembered Elrick, and immediately brought the man's name into his prayer. I hope he gets his happiness soon.

While Raya threw her mind away at the cold man, Dipa continued to stare at the high cheek jaws of Kingdom like a noble lady in a medieval kingdom.

"Married to me, Ray. Be my wife..."
