TRAGEDY AUGUST 13 '98
SECTION 060
Can smiled a little. “More precisely revenge. I was able to survive and get through it all out of hatred, anger, also grudge.”
“The first time my career began, I was in a relationship with a woman I loved very much.”
“She was the first love of my life, but, on the day of the accident, she left me and chose to marry another man. We haven't even broken up, but, she's saying goodbye to getting married just like that.”
“It was the pain of betrayal that tormented me so much.”
Can's face held a thousand meanings while telling that story. Sometimes he smiled, but his heart felt endless sadness if it remembered him.
“Jeez, I seem to be telling too much. You don't have to take it seriously, Zaid's bodyguard. Let's enjoy this drink.”
Zaid sighed. “I must use the woman,” murmured Zaid in heart.
Rose. That's answer. Zaid wants to use Rose so Can wants to move on his own.
Not that Rose was a spy, but, just that Rose was the one who told Zaid to be Can's bodyguard.
To be sure, Can will be angry and cut his contract with YB Entertainment, the agency that has been overshadowing him all along.
Because the source of Can's hatred and anger was on Rose who had abandoned her.
“I also have something to tell you too.”
“What is it? Justsaytheword. I'll hear your story, even if it's long and convoluted.”
“Actually …. The one who sent me to be your personal bodyguard was Miss Rose, who was the biggest shareholder of YB Entertainment. With help from Babel Group owned by her husband.”
Can fold his forehead. His facial features changed drastically when Zaid mentioned Rose. “Rose?”
“It was he who told me to be your bodyguard through Producer Nick. He wants to get you back to work. I'm sure you're not the one who wants to be someone else's doll.”
Can dumbfounded. Think long, digest the words of Zaid.
“I am the subordinate of the person I am serving,” replied Zaid firmly assured.
Can was silent again. Remove alcohol directly from the bottle. Quite a dilemma with that word.
“Alright, Sir. Looks like you need some time to think. I'll leave you first. Excuse me.” Zaid nodded, then left the balcony.
Zaid looked at Can from behind the window. Seemed still daydreaming and thinking about what Zaid had said to her.
***
Right the next day. Zaid's plan worked out as planned. Can has decided to sign with YB Entertainment. It was very strong with his intention.
Early in the morning, Can, Anna, and Zaid were at YB Entertainment's office. Waiting for Nick to arrive that morning.
In Nick's room, Can sits down and reads the newspaper in Nick's CEO's chair.
Not long after, Nick came. Exclaiming to see Can who already wants to return to work, but not enough one week after all schedules are pushed back.
“Jeez, Sir! You're back?” exclaim Nick. “You are amazing. The passion for work that you have makes you unable to rest. Very energetic.”
“Close your mouth, Goddamn it!” can ketus. “Have you lied to me?”
“What do you mean, Mister?” Nick's confused.
“You told me that Babel Group is the largest shareholder of YB, but, is not the company just instead? The largest shareholder of YB is Rose, right?”
“He used the name Babylon to change his name.”
“Gosh ... That .. Not like that ..”
