SEMESTER TEST ASSIGNMENT

Name : Andari Amalia Syahrial


Date : 21st May 2018
The Gap
My hands were sweating, and shaking. It was only in the early afternoon, yet my body
acted as if I just finished watching the scariest horror movie. I looked at the things
around me. It was still messy, with nothing was positioned right except for my bed and
table. Everything was looking upside down, as if someone just broke into the house and
pulled things whatever inside to be out of order. But I did not care about that. What I
really care in that moment was the laptop in front of me, sitting down on the table while
showing the screen “Do you agree buying this item?” or something, forcing me to make
a difficult decision in my life. I mumbled to myself, “Hmmm….Ahahahah, it’s okay,
it’s okay, it’s okaaayyyy!! Look, you only live by yourself. Well, sometimes sister is
coming here, but I’m sure she won’t find out if I hide it well, riiight?? Yosh!! I got
nothing to care and I will press this button, now!” I screamed, and pressed the button
“Yes” before I slapped my face continuously, wondering if I was still dreaming and if I
was, I had to wake up. Because just now, I just spent $1000 only to buy some limited
edition pack of an album, poster, and other merchandise and I knew it was the last
money I had. I googled up for someway to survive for a month, living with no money.
But the answers were not satisfying. The only solution told me was to work, or “gotta
work your ass off if you need some extra money” and strangely, this rude quote from
internet motivated me to do so. I grinned happily and excitedly waiting for the package
and at the same time, I had to work double for that month. It was okay, absolutely okay.

Let me introduce you to a story. A simple story which it could happen to anyone, to any
innocent girl out there. It started from that night. Yes, the root of this problem was none
other than my annoying sister. She worked as a stylist for Rush Entertainment Company
and she often crashed into my house without any warning, ate all of my favourite foods
in the fridge before leaving me again with an empty stomach. In other words, she was
the core source of my stress. Yet, I stupidly let her do all of that, because I gave up
putting some sense off her. I had used almost entirely of my energy to fight and warned
her to leave me alone, while she nonchalantly listened, laughed, and made fun of me. At
the end, she still did it anyway, so it made me tired of myself. As usual, that day she
crashed in while looking drowsy and staggering. She tried to hug me as soon as I
opened the door and I quickly moved away from her, “Gosh, sister, you stink of booze!”
I yelled. She quickly stood up to face me, “I …. I dhon’t sstink….” but failed before she
passed out in the hallway. I quickly dragged her feet and let her sleep on the couch in
the living room, without realising that the nightmare was coming tomorrow.

And I was right. Not only being late, but she got a fever and could not work. All she
could do in the morning was wailing and wailing and cursed me and cursed herself.
“I should not drink yesterday, I should be able to hold back…” she said while sniffing
grossly. I stayed quiet while marking my students’ work, and ignored her.
“Hey, I’m serious. Gosh, what am I doing right now, really? After all of my hard work,
today it was the day he will come to the studio alright?” She cried. I turned to her and
saw that annoying crying face while looking regretful.
“He? Do you mean another actor? Or singer?”
“Yeah. You know, the one who’s very popular now. He’s made a comeback ‘LOVE
ME’ album and it was a big hit. You know him right?”
Instead of answering her questions, I gave her the ‘disbelief’ look or I mean ‘does she
expect me to know them?’ as she knew me that I hate watching TV. All of sudden, her
mood changed and she screamed something unbelievable, “I’ve been thinking. What if
you go there and be my REPLACEMENT?”
I choked myself as I heard that. I could not drink my tea anymore. I turned to her and
she smiled and looked so determined. In that moment, I cursed, “Oh, shit.”

Anyway, I went to the studio and told them that I replaced my sister. It had been five
years I stopped this kind of job. I used to work there before and won many awards, but
it did not last long. When I came back for a short moment, everyone was happy.
“I thought I would never see your work again. Thank you for coming in. It will be a
very busy today, but since it’s you, I’ll let you handle him on your own.” Manager Lee
said as she came in to the preparation room. As always, she looked so elegant and
stunning, but it made me wonder why she chose my sister as her close friend.
“Thank you Miss, but who is the client?” I asked her. Miss Lee looked shocked which I
expected.
“Hmm… Diana you… your sister didn’t tell you?” asked her. I just agreed and shook
my head while showing my response.
“He’s Kim Roy.” Miss Lee answered. Again, I did not show any response. When Miss
Lee was about to say something, a very stunning, tall and handsome man all of sudden
came in to the room which stopped everyone from their activities and greeted him. It
was my first time, seeing such a man. “Is he human? I mean… is he real?” I thought. I
saw many handsome actors and models in the past, but the man in front of me right now
was very different, he was in different level. Not only his handsome and calming face,
but he dominated the aura around him. I kept staring at him without a blink, like a dead
fish. I did not know why, but the more I saw him, the more he came closer and looked
big… no… he was massive! He stood in front of me, smiling with his huge tall body
while I looked like a skinny chicken who was about to be eaten by a bear. I gave him an
awkward smile. He replied back, and shortly asked me with his angelic face, “Are you
my new stylist?”

That short moment was enough for me to fall in love and became his trash fan.

So, that was the end of the story which started where I was at the moment. In conclusion,
I became so obsessive of him, and tried to find anything that was related to him,
including gossip, family, fan meeting events, and even concerts, I attended them all
which made me broke. No body knew about this shame, except me. I had to hide it from
my sister if I did not want to be made fun of, or being bullied instead, which left me
with no choice but to act well. I checked my order, it was said to be roughly four days
for the package to arrive. I was delighted and saved the receipt before getting ready to
work. I was an English private teacher which under the contract of RUSH, and my job
was to teach English for some young actors or singers to improve the language. I was
feeling over the moon already even though it was still in the mid day. Because I knew
Kim Roy would also be there….as my student.
I arrived to the class and started to check the attendance. Slightly, just a quick glance, I
saw him sitting at the back corner. He was staring at me with his angelic beautiful smile.
For a short moment, I thought my heart was stop beating so I covered my face with the
attendance book and I blushed and smiled and scream internally. Really, it was hard and
torturing for me to be in this class. I already suffered putting on a poker face, and
strongly got the image from the students that I was a heartless, ignorant, and shorty
teacher. I knew I like him, but why my student? Even so, I thought this was a big
jackpot in my life, so I tried to enjoy it to the fullest as much as I can. I did not know
what good deeds I had done in my past life, but what ever it is…THANK GOD!

It had been 2 months I became an English teacher. I liked my current job, although I got
different unique names from the students because of it. As you know, models and actors
usually have a strong body built and very tall, so in front of these people I only looked
like a tiny midget. But most of them were very nice as I was often invited to their
parties after they finished a drama or modelling event. When I was packing up some
books in the classroom, I saw Kim Roy and his other friends approached me.
“Diana, do you wanna come to the after party today? You know, we just finished a big
drama right, with Kim Roy.” I looked at him quietly before saying anything.
“Congratulation, Kim. You’re the main protagonist right? It was good.” I said and
smiled. He also replied my smile back which made me fainted inside a thousand times.
“Are you coming, Miss Diana?” God…. He called me MISS DIANA!! I tried hard to
keep on my poker face and nodded my head before I excused myself to leave. Any
longer I stayed there, surely I would faint and hyperventilated, so I’d better leave first.
Just before left the class, I felt a hot sensation grabbed my hand, as he held me and
stopped me from leaving.
“Wait! Wait a second… Miss.” He begged. I stopped my footsteps while my heart also
stopped beating at the moment. He took out some wrapping flower-shaped cookies with
a ribbon tie. I did not understand the purpose until he handed me those lovely cookies
which made me dumbstruck in a spot.
“You… Mr. Kim, is this…” I stuttered.
“Yes, it’s for you. I made this for you in mind, since you are our favourite teacher. Is
this okay?” He asked me shyly. In that moment, I could not contain my happiness and
in impulse I smiled.
“Oh…thank you.” I said. As if there was some kind of signal, his friends left the class
while giving him a naughty wink and a short laughed, which made him blush a little. He
looked at me nervously and it gave me sign to open the wrap and taste it. I smiled and
quickly opened and picked one of the best looking cookies to taste it. It was delicious,
making my heart flutter and full by just eating it. I nodded happily and tried another one.
Just before I wanted to compliment him, suddenly my head felt heavy and everything
was blurry. I could not stand on my legs as I lost all of my power and passed out. Kim
Roy quickly caught me, and held me in his arm. Just before I slept, I thought Mr. Kim
whispered something close to my ear which made me shivered.
“I’m sorry, Diana. It’s just that… I like you. Oh god! Why are you so little, cute and
adorable? I won’t hurt you… I just want you to be mine. So, just sleep like a princess…
okay?” He gave me a cold smile and petted my head before I fell into a very deep sleep.
