DANGEROUS LOVE'S

I'm Ready

This morning, the doctor opened a bandage around Hazal's head. Slowly, the white cloth slid down to touch the floor. All members of the Aksal family were also in Hazal's room. They wish Hazal all the best.

"Is your head still dizzy, Hazal?" the doctor asked after removing all the bandages from the woman's head.

"No, Doc," replied Hazal who tried to shake her head. He felt nothing in his head.

"Try you to remember what happened when you were a child, when you lost your parents" the doctor said in a friendly manner.

Hazal closed both of her eyelids, trying to recall the memory, reawakening the bitter memories that were imprinting on her brain. The memory rotates backwards, like a roll of film being turned. The murder incident, he can remember it clearly. Then he reopened his eyelids.

"How, Hazal?" ask the doctor standing next to him.

Hazal just looked straight ahead, not looking at the face of the doctor who was asking him. "I can remember it clearly, Doctor. My head no longer hurts" Hazal answered happily and enthusiastically, holding the doctor's hands.

"Congratulations to you, Hazal. Now you're completely healed" said the doctor, who was also happy to see his patient had recovered.

"Can Hazal go home, Doctor?" ask the Emir, Hazal's foster father.

"Oh, of course, today Hazal can go home" replied the Doctor who immediately congratulated all members of the Aksal family.

"You want to go home now, baby?" asked the Emir who teased his daughter. While Meral helps pack Hazal's clothes.

"Of course Dad, I miss my bedroom so much" said Hazal, who smiled and hugged her foster father.

"Ehmm. You just miss your room!" Japheth snorted because he did not get a hug from Hazal.

"Of course I miss you too, sa-" said Hazal, who then realized his words. Japheth hugged him immediately, and whispered something into Hazal's ear. "I miss you so much."

They're both very lucky. The Emir of Aksal did not hear Hazal's words and Japheth's whispers, because a nun came to him to give the administrative details to be paid.

"Let's go home soon !" take Meral to her two children.

While they were on the street, Hazal's cell phone rang. Hazal swiped over the green phone handle image that appeared on her phone screen.

"How are you doing, Attorney Hazal?" ask the Chief Prosecutor from behind his cell phone.

"Now I'm on the road going home. The doctor let me go home today" Hazal replied, gesturing to Japheth that the Chief Prosecutor had contacted him.

"Are you ready to meet Ted Baxter?" ask the Chief Prosecutor who is with the Police Captain.

"I'm very prepared, Chief Prosecutor. Give me the schedule. When should I see him?" hazal said with her two beads shining brightly.

"Tomorrow at 10 a.m. Meet me at the Central Police Station" replied the Chief Prosecutor.

"All right." Hazal turned off her cell phone.

The next day...

The entire Aksal family gathered in the dining room, they did their breakfast routine. But unlike usual, the Emir's facial water seemed restless and he had no appetite for breakfast this morning.

"What's up, baby? Are you not feeling well?" meral asked who was sitting next to her husband. His wife clasped the Emir's palm.

"Eat, Dad. This is your favorite fried chicken" cried Hazal who put a piece of chicken thigh on his father's plate.

"Meral, I'm fine" the Emir said as he patted his wife's hand. Then he continued, "Hazal, are you sure...Today you want to meet the killer?"

"Yes, Dad.I'm sure. This is the day I have been waiting for twenty years" replied Hazal, holding his father's hand.

"Dad knows that. I'm just worried if something happens to you, what if he hurts you or kills you, son?" the Emir's voice sounded soft.

"Dad..," Hazal's speech came to a halt when Japheth suddenly cut off his words.

"Alright.keep your sister well. Don't let the killer hurt him again" Emir told his eldest son.

"Dad, don't tell Lawyer Alfred about Hazal's meeting with Ted Baxter" Japheth asked his father, because he didn't want the lawyer to mess things up.

No time has been shown at 09:20 Istanbul time. The two sons of Aksal said farewell to their parents. Yafet drove his car to the Central Police Station.

Before 10:00 a.m., they had already arrived at the Central Police Station. The public service office is not too crowded for this morning. Although there are some police officers who are seen passing by. They walk towards the Police Captain's den, after Hazal receives a short message from the Chief Prosecutor.

The Police Captain's office is waiting for the Captain and the Chief Prosecutor. No one else knew about Hazal and Ted Baxter's meeting, except them. Not even Ted Baxter's lawyer knew this.

Tok...buttons..tok...!

There was a knock on the door from outside. "That must be him" cried the Chief Prosecutor who immediately opened the door of the room.

The Chief Prosecutor introduced Hazal to the Police Captain. They both shake hands. "You're a prosecutor too?" ask the Captain to Hazal.

"Yes, Captain. Nice to meet you. It was me who called the police about Ted Baxter being in the cemetery" Hazal said with a smile.

"Oh.It turns out that person is you" said the Captain. Then he turned his gaze toward Japheth who was standing beside Hazal. "You...? Aren't you the one who beat up Ted Baxter back then?"

"Yes... You still remember, Captain," cried Japheth, shaking hands with the Captain.

"He is Japheth Aksal, he is my lover" said Hazal, who introduced Japheth to the two men standing in front of him.

"Okay.we just go straight to the room that I have prepared," the Captain invited his guests.

Police Interrogation Room

This room is designed with one of its walls using a two-way mirror, which is only translucent on the outside. While on the inside, the glass is only a mirror that reflects the object in front of it.

The person inside the room could not see the situation outside, while the other person outside could tell what activities were going on inside. The room is also equipped with four CCTVs to record images and sounds. An alarm as a safety button. There was only a small table and two chairs facing each other.

The Chief Prosecutor, Police Captains, Hazal and Japheth were next to the interrogation room, a room equipped with a computer screen that could record and view the events that occurred inside.

"Bring here Ted Baxter !!" the Captain orders through his handie talkie to one of the police officers who served in the detention room. A short time later, two police officers took Ted Baxter to the interrogation room in handcuffed hands in front.

From the next room, Hazal watched the criminal closely, without blinking her eyes. He clenched both of his palms, and strengthened his jawbone. The face and voice of Ted Baxter twenty years ago, re-appeared in his mind.

Ted Baxter didn't know what was really going to happen, he thought maybe the Police Captain would interrogate him again. But there was no one in the room, other than her with the two police officers who had taken her earlier.

"Are you ready, Attorney Hazal?" ask the Captain who is still looking at Hazal's face who is still staring at Ted Baxter.

"I'm ready, Captain ! Do now...!" hazal said with great emphasis without looking at his interlocutor.
