Tabita's Point Of View. I will leave voluntarily. I looked at the door because I heard a knock before it open. I saw Kenzo smiling and carrying a basket of fruit and a bouquet. "Why are you carrying a bouquet? I'm not dead yet," I joked. He laughed while placing the bouquet and fruit on the table. "How are you? Rika told me what happened." he asked, I can sense his concern. "I'm fine, not dead yet. Almost." I smiled. "You shouldn't have left your house, you should have called Rika or me if you want something to eat." "I'm a fool too, I didn't think of that," I said while laughing. "But at least you're okay now, that's what matters now." "I'm sorry, our shooting is going to be delayed. We have to do commercials and interviews right now but I'm here rotting on this bed." I'm so ashamed right now. Because it's really embarrassing! We should be finishing those but because I'm in the hospital right now, we won't be able to finish them this week. What I did was really stupid. He nodded while smiling. "No, it's okay. At least I have a break now. But I'm not really happy about what happened to you. What happened to you was dangerous, Tabi. What if Rika didn't go to see you there?" I nodded in agreement. "That's why I'm thanking Rika. She's been a really good personal assistant. I've always counted on her at any time. Even on her day off, she always tells me to call her when I need something." Kenzo smiled at me in agreement. "Where is she, anyway?" "Buying my food." "That's good, she's the one buying because maybe you'll repeat what you did," he said laughing so I glared at him. Oh god, he's teasing me! He stays in my room many hours , we watched a movie, I laugh because he screams whenever he is surprised. We're watching a horror movie. "Do you have an idea for the movie we will make?" he asked while watching. I shook my head. "No, it's up to them to decide. Whatever they want me to do, I'll just follow, "I answered while also watching. Even if I make a complain, the director will still be followed. That's the way it is, even if you don't want it to happen, but because you're an actor, all you need to do is act and follow for money. "Me too, there's nothing I can do when I complain. Sir Ryan said we need to make a movie that has higher ratings than Monica and Khairo's movie." "Are you serious? How are we going to do that? That movie is very popular right now and I heard they are working on a new movie," I said. "I don't know, they don't want to say it but we know that both of their names are louder than ours. It is also possible that the movie they are working on and ours will come out at the same time." "They are already making their movie, ours is not yet. How can we keep up with it? And it seems impossible for the network to do that. The ratings of our latest movie might suddenly drop," I said. "I don't know but they say the ratings of our new movie must be bigger than Khairo and Monica's upcoming movie." I scratched my head but immediately stopped because it was bandaged. I know Monica and Khairo are both good actors, I don't know if we can be higher than them. It wasn't in my plan but that's what the network wanted so we had to comply. It's not my plan, I'm content with what I have now. "I don't like what happens when an artist is too famous," I whispered. I felt his nod. "I hate that. So I'm content with what I have right now." "I know, Kenzo, you're feeling tired too. But do you ever think about quitting? Because I honestly do, yes. And I think I can quit showbiz anytime." "Yes, it comes to my mind to stop and just live in a far away place." "I want that too, I'm living with the man who is my husband and we are far away from this world. I'm also tired of facing the media, smiling endlessly for the happiness of others. I also can't really blame why other artists suddenly stopped, before I couldn't understand them. But now, I understand them because the amount of tiredness I feel right now is no joke," I said. "So don't be surprised if I suddenly disappear without saying goodbye, right? Just think that I'm happy in a far away place, far from the media. Far from the cameras." He laughed. "I'll look for you, I have to know the updates on your life. How can I meet your future husband?" "You already know him," I whispered just enough for him not to hear. I laughed at my own thoughts. Why do I think Khairo and I's marriage will work? When night fell, Kenzo also left and said he would come back tomorrow. Even though he is not doing commercials these days, he is still busy, he did not say what is it. Maybe he's married too and he's just hiding it? I laughed at my own thoughts. Maybe it's the effect of hitting my head on the steering wheel. When Kenzo left I felt the silence of the whole area. And I hate it. I don't like it when it's quiet, because suddenly I can think about things I shouldn't be thinking about. When it's quiet, I think about my problems. I took a deep breath before playing a song on my cellphone to somehow reduce the silence. Will Khairo visit me tomorrow? I hope mom will tell him again to come visit me. Mom called me earlier and ask how I am, she also asked if Khairo came and I said yes, she said that she did send him. I hoped that it was just Khairo's trick and that he really wanted to visit me. Do I love him so much like this?
