Because of the compulsion

Lunches

"Lho, Sir. Where are we going? This isn't the road to my house? Where are you taking me?" viona asked in panic.

The car he was riding on did not pass the road that should be to the direction of Viona's house. Where will Marshal take him? Viona panicked even more when Marshal did not answer. "Sir, where are we going? Who the hell are you really? You want to kidnap me?"

Marshal remained calm looking towards the front. He had no intention of answering Viona's words.

"Where are you taking me?" Viona was already completely panicked. Glancing at Marshal and Rio took turns.

"Quiet, Miss! We'll have lunch first" Rio said casually.

Viona stared intently at Rio who was still focused on driving. "Why is it lunch? Didn't you just take me home?"

"Meet me lunch first, I'll take you home later" the marshal said calmly.

Viona takes a look at the Marshal. His suspicion of Marshal grew even greater. "Who are you, Sir? You want to do me bad?"

Marshal smiled obliquely hearing it. The girl he wanted to marry was not someone who was easy to deal with in silence. "Reza's. My name is Syahreza Atmadinata" said Marshal slowly. He was still focused on looking ahead.

Viona frowned. That name he never heard. "Would you like to see me, sir?"

Marshal was throwing his breath away irritated. Viona asked too many questions making him careless. "I'll just take you home. But, before we go home we have lunch first."

Viona slit her eyes. He did not believe the words of Marshal because the two men who carried him were too suspicious. "You're not a bad guy, are you?"

That stupid question Viona asked. Even if Marshal was a bad man, he would definitely answer "no". Why would Viona even propose such a rhetorical sentence?

"I'm your father's business partner. We know you very well, I won't harm you." Marshal smiled at Viona. He shook his head at Viona's not-so-lead nature.

"What's the evidence?" challenge Viona. Marshal looked at him sharply. He thought Viona would stop talking. But, it turns out that he still does not believe his words.

Viona is increasingly convinced that they are bad people because Marshal is only silent when asked for evidence. "Down me now!" pinta Viona firmly. He was already anxious if brought by someone he did not know. "Master, stop the car! Put me down right now!"

No one was talking about Viona. Both Marshal and Rio were still silent. But Marshal immediately moved quickly when Viona reached into the phone from her sling bag. "What do you want?"

"Call the police, what else?" viona's sarcasm with a stern look. He has exhausted his patience. His life is in danger at this time. It is impossible to just be taken by someone he does not know.

The marshal was shocked and immediately snatched the phone from Viona's hand. "Don't call the police! I'm not a bad person."

Viona's panicking. I don't know what he's feeling right now. His feelings were erratic and he started to get scared. "Prove that you're not a bad person!"

"Well," said Marshal lightly. He immediately took his cell phone from inside his suit pocket. Open the screen and search for the number stored there. "Look! This is your father's number, right?" Marshal shows her phone screen in front of Viona. There was seen calling a number with the name Heru Pratama on it.

Viona bought eyes as she recalled some of her father's number numbers.

"Hello, Assalamu'aikum, sir?"

Viona was stunned when the call was connected and because at the loudspeeker, Viona could immediately hear Heru's voice.

Marshal smiled obliquely looking at Viona's reaction. "Waalaikumsalam, Sir. Where are you now?"

"Em, still in the office. Why is it, sir?"

Silent for a long time. There is no word from Heru across the street. Perhaps Heru was surprised by the words of the Marshal. Until Marshal spoke again, "Do I have to send your daughter straight home?"

I heard a rough breath. "I-yes, Sir. I'll also be home soon" Heru said nervously.

Marshal smiled back at Viona. He raised his eyebrows making sure that Viona was really listening. "But I'm allowed to have lunch first, your daughter also I invite, is that okay?"

Long Heru did not answer. Only the roar of furious breath could be heard. However, Heru also replied after a long period of silence. "Yes, Sir. As long as Viona is fine," he said softly.

After giving his thanks and saying his greetings, Marshal immediately closed the call and put his phone back in his pocket. Viona's phone that he had snatched also he handed it back to the owner.

"Hows it? Still think I'm the bad guy?" marshal asked Viona who was still silent. He did not even turn to look at the movements of the Marshal.

Viona's mind raged. Although the chatter of Heru and Marshal sounds strange and less connected, but Viona so know if they really know each other. He became confused himself and a little regretful for having accused the Marshal of a no-no. But he refused to apologize and instead immediately turned his gaze to the side. Looking at the street outside the window with an erratic feeling.

Marshal can only smile. But the two are also very grateful that Heru did not talk much when contacted impromptu and cover up his surprise when he found out that Viona was already with the person who a few days ago offered to marry her. The truth, though,

"Why can Viona be with mister Marshal? What did mister Marshal do to her?" Heru paced back and forth in panic.

She was very anxious to hear that Viona was with the Marshal. "Will master Marshal force Viona to accept his offer? Or even Viona threatened sup－no-no. Viona must be fine."

He was not calm in his office. Office business for a moment he forgot because his mind was fixed on Viona. He does not want Viona to agree to the Marshal's offer if forced because Heru also does not expect Viona to accept it. He knew Viona would definitely not be willing. Heru has resigned his fate. He is sincere if soon his company will be scorched and his family lives a long life.

But, what about Viona at the moment? Heru is afraid that Marshal will harass Viona until he agrees to her offer by force. Indeed, Heru could not be calm when his son was with Marshal.

****

"You don't want to eat?" marshal asked Viona, who only focused on her cell phone, instead of seeing Marshal enjoying her lunch.

Viona shook her head and smiled at the Marshal. "No, Mister. I'm not hungry" he said the second time he told Marshal.

Viona just ordered avocado juice. He did not intend to have lunch because indeed he did not feel like eating and felt awkward when with Marshal. They just got to know her and Viona felt uncomfortable. Especially when remembering the incident earlier when Marshal and Rio were very suspicious and had made Viona suudzon. Just remembering it made Viona feel embarrassed.

As the Marshal said, after lunch they would drive Viona home. Viona was so relieved to hear that. He wanted to get home and stay away from the people he knew.

On the way to Viona's house, in the car no one spoke anymore. Marshal focused on the phone in his hand, Rio focused on driving and Viona was immersed with her own thoughts, so she was unconscious when the car had entered Heru's yard, the previous time the gate was opened by the security guard who guarded the gate.

"Miss?" reprimanding Rio gently at Viona who was still sitting in the car. Though the car door has been opened by Rio and Marshal already got off the car a moment ago.

Viona was awakened from her daydream. He looks around. How surprised he was when he realized that the car he was riding in was parked in the yard of his father's house.

Viona smiled kindly at Rio and immediately got off the car. Walked to the main door of his house. There was already Heru standing at the door and smiling at them. But, the look on Heru's face looked uneasy making Viona wonder in her heart.

  Approaching Heru and greeting him together, they went inside after being invited. Before entering Viona did not forget also to hug Heru and kiss each other on the cheeks alternately.

"Quick break! You are still not well" Heru told Viona.

Viona just smiled. Go inside the house and go straight to his room upstairs, while Heru invites Marshal and Rio to go to the living room.

Despite still being shocked and unsettled with a wonderfully astonished mind, Heru remained friendly to the Marshal and immediately called his workers to prepare treats for his impromptu guest.
