Juan And Mentari

Juan And Mentari
J&M Section 38



Mentari almost welcomed a helping hand from Juan. Luckily before he did that his brain was able to think realistically.


Mentari knew if he welcomed Juan's hand, it was the same as dragging the man he loved into his problems. He was unwilling to make the man in trouble because he was certain that Boss Frengky would not let go of him just like that.


"I'm sorry, I can't come along" replied Mentari with a flat face.


"Tari, I know you're forced to be in this place. So, come with me!" pinta Juan's.


"Dance, I'm sorry I interfered. But, I think this is your best chance to get out of this place. All this time you were forced to stay here for fear that Boss Frengky brought your sister here to replace you right? And now, your sister is protecting you. Anyway I'm sure Boss Frengky won't dare to harass the Wijaya Family." Susan was talking.


Yes, despite living away from his family Mentari always monitor the life of Bintang from afar. He felt relieved when he found out that his sister was married to the famous family.


"So, you're staying here to protect your sister?" ask Juan again.


"Actually several times Tari tried to escape from this place and almost succeeded. But, Boss Frengky threatened to bring the Stars here if he dared to escape. So, she had to stay here" Susan explained.


"Let me please come with me!" pinta Juan was earnest.


The sun looked at Susan. Susan nodded her head in response.


"Alright," Mentari replied later. "But, San. You should come with me too. I can't possibly let you stay here. I want us both to leave this place together." The sun held Susan's hands.


"No, Tar. I don't have anyone out there. You're the one who left!" Susan let go of Mentari's hand.


"San, you are my best friend. How am I supposed to get out of here without you? Come with me! If you feel like you have nobody out there, then consider me and my family as your family too. So, please come with me!" While crying, Mentari asked Susan to come with her.


"But, why?"


"Because the people I love are here" Susan replied.


"What do you mean?" Mentari.


"You don't need to know, but obviously I can't get out of here. Now hurry up you guys leave before Boss Frengky and his men come here for a routine check!" ask Susan.


Every morning, Frengky and his men would come to one room at a time to check on the whereabouts of the women. He would not let his women escape from the place. If anyone is found out, then do not hesitate Boss Frengky will give punishment to them.


"Susan, but.... "


Susan hugged Mentari. "Dance, I really can't go. I'm happy because soon you'll be with your sister and your mother. I wish you could go back to living a normal life like before you got stuck here" Susan said. He then removed his wound.


"Juan, I leave my best friend to you. Take care of him, protect him, and be happy! While here, not a single day did he forget you!"


Juan nodded. "Without you asking I will definitely protect and look after him. I will definitely make amends for ever letting go" Juan replied.


"Quick! Go!" Susan encouraged Mentari and Juan to leave immediately.


However, they had just opened the door of Frengky and some of his men were already at the door.
