I'm taking you off, Mas!

Sweet Voice

"Let go! You can't just catch people. It's just slander I can sue you back," Jono tried to rebel when two men in uniform caught him at home the morning before Jono went to work. His wife and son cried to witness the arrest.

"You can explain later!" Said one of the men in uniform.

"I said let go!" Jono continued to rebel.

"You have to take responsibility for what you've done, Jon!" Said a man who had just come there.

The man was Uda Malik, the owner of the shop where he worked. He came with Afkar.

"Sir Malik," Jono looked at his boss and turned to Afkar and stared intently at the man. Jono looked back at Uda Malik. "What do you mean, sir? Why should I be responsible?" Jono pretended to be stupid.

Uda Malik shows some of the cheating that Jono did even a cheating video that he did last night with two people who helped him.

Jono's eyes were round when he saw the action he did was recorded on camera. Even when he hid some contraband material in an empty warehouse not far from the store owned by Uda Malik.

"You can't dodge anymore, Jon. The other day's incident involving me was also you're the one who did it?" Afkar's words made Jono unable to dodge anymore.

"Bad! You purposely confessed to all this to set me up!" Jono tries to rebel to get close to Afkar. But the two officers with all their might held him back.

"That's enough! I still appreciate you, Jon. I give an option to all who do wrong when eliminating store items. But if this is the case I think to replace the items that have been lost and maybe you have sold somewhere, I can not give relief. Moreover, your actions include criminal acts. You better hold him accountable in prison," said Uda Malik makes Jono feel unacceptable.

"No, I don't want to go to jail. What about my wife and daughter, Uda? Please forgive me! I'd better pay for the store's losses by repaying it, sir. I promise I won't do that again. Please forgive me!" Shouted Jono. He did not accept the decision made by Uda Malik.

"Bring him in, sir! Let the court decide what punishment would be appropriate for a thief like Jono" Uda Malik told two officers who had handcuffed both of Jono's hands.

"All because of you! I'm not going to stay in them, I'm going to bale out what I do now" cried Jono as he was dragged away by two uniformed officers who put him in a detention car.

"Father, Mom!" said the young son of Jono when he saw his father dragged by a man in uniform.

There was a feeling of pity in Afkar's heart seeing the cry of the boy. "I'm sorry, Son. But this has to be done for your father to be deterred." Afkar approached the boy and gently rubbed his head. Then glanced at Jono's wife. "Sorry, Mom. The crimes your husband committed must stop. In addition to the shop. Your husband also does a lot of selling illegal goods" Afkar explained.

Sobs were heard from Jono's wife. "I really didn't expect my husband to be like that. But where is the money made, I feel I never received big money from him. Every day he just complains cape with his work. Go home is always late in the morning," complained Jono's wife.

And in exchange the woman had to make up for the loss that Jono did. The options are replaced all directly or by install it. This is done according to the rules that exist. Uda Malik waived her by hiring the woman in her shop with a salary obligation that had to be cut each month to replace goods that had been smuggled by Jono.

Jono's wife accepted the decision. Because by replacing all the money directly, the woman could not. So the second choice was what he chose.

After waiting for the deal made Uda Malik and Jono's wife. Afkar and Uda Malik return to the store. The store owner was very grateful to Afkar for thoroughly investigating the cause of losses that always occur every month in his store.

"It's my duty to it, Uda. Otherwise this is not the only me who will be a victim of scapegoat by Jono. It could be that other employees will also be affected," said Afkar.

"Whatever it is, I thank you. Yes, it is working as usual. Sandy who will replace Jono, for his wife later because he is a woman. Let him take notes in and out of the goods," said Uda Malik.

"You're so heartened at the suspect's wife, it's fitting that this store is always going forward and successful" Afkar said.

The buying and selling routine is back. Uda Malik Textile store is getting crowded by visitors. Some workers were added to help the waiter buy and sell it. Afkar graciously serves all visitors who come.

"Ben, please replace me for a moment!" Pinta Afkar on Beni who is tidying the material group into place.

"Good, Sir!"

"Passed by another employee yes, ma'am. I'm sorry that someone called like him from the central store" Afkar told the buyer he served.

Think of Afkar can be from the buyer, then he immediately away from the crowd of the store. He wanted to pick up the phone that was ringing this afternoon. Because today Afkar has been umpteenth time to receive a call from a number that he does not know with the same number. Initially wanting to ignore because Afkar is lazy to deal with unknown numbers. The same number keeps contacting. Afkar chose to accept it.

"Afkar wait!" Call Uda Malik when Afkar is about to leave the store. His intention had to be delayed for a moment. He ignored the phone calls he received.

"What's up, Uda?" Afkar asked as he approached Uda Malik.

"I just got word from the police. That Jono managed to escape from the rutan he was holding this morning. Jono also snuck into the catering car that went into the garage. Jono took the catering waiter hostage and disguised himself in his place. Now Jono's a fugitive before the trial. I just reminded you to be careful. Stay alert and take care" Uda Malik warned Afkar.

"Thank you for telling me. God willing I will always be careful, Uda."

"Yes, continue the work."

Afkar nodded slowly. "I'm going to go out for a minute, Da. To receive a call!" Pamit Afkar's.

"Oh, yeah. Please!" Uda Malik was again preoccupied with payment at the cashier table.

Kerry immediately came out of the store. He was curious about the phone number that kept calling him.

"Who the hell? This number feeling not many know, except--"Afkar hangs his words as he remembers someone who knows his phone number. Afkar quickly shifted the green button to call the number he had been calling. Afkar can't wait to find out who's behind the caller. His mind was on someone.

"Assalamualaikum," said someone across the phone when the phone line was connected.

The old spoiled voice was not heard by Afkar. Her lips expanded when she found out who the owner of the voice was.

"Waalaikumussalam," Afkar replied with a smile on his lips.
