Lay With The Devil's

Ill

Jaka just did a table ordering at one of his subscription restaurants. He plans to bring someone to dinner. He had been quite fed up with his activities for the past few weeks.

"So, I'll pick you up at seven tonight. How?", Jaka called Sarah.

"Eem. because you keep your word by no longer coming to the office. Are you really finished?",

"That's your business now. I have my own company to take care of...",

"alright... I'll be ready by 7" Sarah replied.

Jaka just threw his phone on the bed. It had been a long time since he had observed the woman who was the bearer of the problem.

"If there wasn't this problem, we might have been dating...",

"I know. You're too easy to guess. But, you should not let this approach of the Father become a new problem... It's not over" Paul explained.

"Calm down. I know how far I'm gonna get... Besides, I'm really curious why he's so attached to this guy... If he is threatened, he can report to the police. So there must be something else...",

"You're right. Just don't get too involved with your emotions...",

"What does that mean?",

"Well, you were dating last time, almost a year ago.so...",

"Hey, just a few weeks ago I was dating Debby",

"Pfftth... Debby's still a snot, sir. He was just the son of a client who was infatuated with the rich and handsome. Does that include dating?", though?",

"Eitherway. It's the same this time. For me, handsome and rich is a priority for women today. Didn't you?", Jaka asked back.

Paul shrugged his shoulders. He did not want to criticize his boss any further. His job as an assistant was just a reminder. But if it gets too far, he will pull Jaka back to his life goal as a friend.

°°°

The clock shows at six past twenty, and Sarah is still not preparing herself.

It's been a week since Jaka showed up at the office. Same with Paul. And during that time Mr. Black never gave any new orders.

In addition, Margo was never seen again. That nice. But he knew that he was not completely free from the vicious cycle.

"Maybe meeting with Mr. Jaka is not a good plan. What if they come back telling me to do something bad? What if Jaka and Paul were the next targets? Oh my God, I'm going crazy" Sarah plays the phone in her hand because she's confused.

Sarah then pressed the screen of her phone. He tried to call Jaka's phone and cancel the meeting.

°°°

Jaka drove off calmly. Although it is very crowded tonight, but unlike other nights, it can pass through traffic without swearing.

A bunch of yellow tulips lay next to him. Maybe a little overrated. But he wants everything to look real. Not just something with other purposes.

°°°

10 Minutes later Jaka's car stopped right in front of the lobby. He then grabbed his phone and was shocked that his phone was dead.

After being turned on, he found seven missedcalls and two unread chats.

Jaka opens a chat from Sarah. His heart began to rumble.

06.45 pm

📩Sorry before Sir. Sy try tlpon tp pnsl bpk is not active. sy can not go with bpk mlm this. there is pkrjaan dn sy must mngurususnya first

📩Sorry thousands sorry

06.57 pm

📩bpk blm go right. shrusus sy infokan lbih cept. sy krg enk bdan. don't get angry sir 🙏🙏

Jaka frowned. Another chat from Paul. He guessed that Paul was also on the phone by the woman.

Jaka heads to Sarah's apartment with a flower in her right hand. His heart is less calm. Not usually. But he ignored it.

°°°

Sarah shrinks the stove fire and lifts her freshly finished instant noodles. For two days he was alone at home. Her brother and husband and son get holiday vouchers from her office. Sarah kangen's. But also quite happy because it is free from the presence of his brother-in-law.

Sarah was just about to bribe her noodles when someone pressed the doorbell of her apartment.

"Okey.. wait.".", Sarah muttered unsuspectingly who would appear there. He put down his chopsticks.

"Hi", Jaka frowned again. Spontaneously he placed his arm on the woman's forehead.

"What~",

"Do you have a fever?", asked Jaka, feeling that the woman's face was a bit hot.

The shocked Sarah could only retreat and shake her head.

"No!",

"You said you weren't feeling well?",

"La. Uh.. i... I busy. I told you I can't go...",

"Well, I received that message while I was downstairs. How else. I just look at it all. You are sick...",

"I'm not.", though...",

Jaka's eyes narrowed. He knew this woman was lying. Anybody would know. But toying with her is funny for Jaka.

"Can I come in?",

"What's? No. gabe... There's no one else. You better be outside. We don't want people to think things",

"OKAY. It's very disrespectful... Oi... Did you light a fire?" asked Jaka as he looked at the red shadow from the direction of the room that was likely the kitchen.

Sarah's face changed. He turned back and ran inside. Jaka followed.

Sarah could only be speechless to see the fire had gone up on the stove and reached out to the pile of washcloths.

Jaka who appeared behind Sarah no less panicked. But he was more able to master his thoughts and directly approached the stove and turned it off. His eyes searched for something but then he opened his suit and immediately wet it with tap water. Jaka put out the fire with his wet body.

Jaka leaned against the wall and breathed a sigh of relief as the fire had been extinguished. She saw Sarah sitting on the floor and covering her mouth.

"You should have APAR* around here.", explained Jaka while sitting on the floor and loosening his shirt.

Jaka is too stiff for this kind of problem. Although his actions were not wrong, but he was quite wary because he had never faced a fire of this magnitude alone.

"Are you hurt?", Sarah approached Jaka and looked at Jaka from top to bottom.

It was enough to make Jaka tense and misbehaved.

What kind of day is this...
