Jaka could only look at Sarah from where she was standing now. His wife was talking to lawyer Lee and detective Junot. They are also waiting for Doctor Fandy to come and check on Sarah.

"Are you feeling better, boss?" paul asked patting his Boss on the shoulder, whose view had not been separated from Sarah.

"Better how? If you see your own wife handcuffed like that?" Jaka massaged his forehead.

"Lee's lawyer is Asia's best... I'm sure Sarah will be free. You are patient..." Madam Ningsih hugged her youngest child.

Mr. Ismail, who was beside his wife, could only say his wife's words. I myself was filled to see the poor woman facing such a big problem. His grudge all this time suddenly evaporated somewhere.

"You better sit down and rest. Remember, your stomach was still empty after you took out your entire lunch earlier." Paul explained.

Suddenly Jaka was hungry.

"Sarah must have not eaten, right? Paul, buy us some food. All for the police here. It's eight o'clock. We should have all had dinner." Jaka explained to Paul.

Then Paul immediately received the order and ordered twenty packs of grilled chicken and rice through the mobile phone application.

Sarah felt safe around these people. But he becomes uneasy with Jaka for not being able to remember him. Though it looks once if Jaka continues to pay attention to it.

"I'm sorry... I'd like to speak to Mr. Jaka if I may.." he asked detective Junot for permission.

"Oh, yes... Of course you want to bicaea with your husband... Wait a minute I'll call you..."

Detective Junot leaves Sarah and lawyer Lee at the table. He met Jaka who was looking at them from a distance.

"Sorry Mr. Jaka, Mrs Sarah would like to speak to you..."

"really? Okay fine..."

Lawyer Lee also then moved away from the table.

"Do you want to talk to me, Sarah?" Jaka read his words.

"I-iya Sir... Uh... Sorry..."

"Call me anything. You remind me of before we got married..."

Sarah's cheeks were embarrassed.

This guy is so handsome. But look tired. Is it because I'm looking for me?

"I... The police officer who took me, who reported my loss, said you and my parents... Is... Can I meet them? Who knows I can remember something." explained Sarah who felt a longing for her parents.

"That problem... So, after you disappeared... Your father's sick. That's why they can't come here..."

"Can I call him?"

Jaka is confused how else to refuse Sarah's request. If they knew Sarah had met, they would have come as soon as they could. But Jaka is afraid that his father-in-law's health will deteriorate when he learns that his son has been caught in a murder case. Like escaping from the crocodile's mouth, getting into the tiger's cage.

Sarah looks disappointed with Jaka's answer.

"Then, when can I meet them?" ask Sarah who is still hopeful.

"If the trial goes well, it will be at most another month... So we need to focus on facing this trial first. Are you all right?" tanya Jaka ascertains the state of his wife.

"All right then. Eemm... I, may I ask you something?"

"of course. You can ask anything..."

"Am I a good wife?" ask Sarah in a quieter voice.

Jaka could only smile at his wife's question.

"You're the best wife in the world. I'm sorry for neglecting to take care of you... I swear, from now on I won't take my eyes off you. I don't want to part with you anymore... Okay?" hearing the words of the person before him, made Sarah smile.

"Then, I'll believe you. I'm glad this kid has a whole family... And a good father..."

Jaka grabbed Sarah's hand and kissed her. He was no longer afraid because Sarah did not remember him. At least Sarah knew he was a good man.

Doctor Fandy who just came directly to meet Sarah and Jaka. He asked a few questions for Sarah. Sarah answered all of Fandy's questions as best she could. Doctor Fandy then explained Sarah's current condition.

"In conditions of extreme stress or shock, the individual's consciousness becomes dissociated meaning apart or divided, from previous experiences and memories..."

The three people in front of him were silent.

"Then the point?" ask Jaka who is getting curious.

"Something could have happened that night, which made the consciousness of Lady Sarah split. Usually very stressful or shock. If detective Junot succeeds in finding out the problem, we'll know the essence of this Sarah's memory. He has not lost his memory. Her memories are locked away like keeping one bad memory in a box. But unfortunately, those memories are tied to other memories.

Actually, I'm kind of suspicious that Miss Sarah this must be remembering some things from her past. Like his childhood family.

Lady Sarah, is there a name you remember other than the people you just met here?" doctor Fandy investigated.

"Either... Sometimes names come to my mind. Axel, Mutia, Sandra, Billy... Names like that. But the further I thought about it, the more nothing I finally speculated that they were just a name passing through my mind..." Sarah explained.

"Maybe you're right doctor, they're Sarah's family..." Jaka confirmed the words of doctor Fandy.

"Then, what I thought was true. And if Lady Sarah could meet them, I'm sure she'd remember.." explains Dr. Fandy.

Sarah smiled at the doctor's explanation. It means he doesn't completely lose all his memory.

But Jaka was worried. That means there is no other way but to bring them together. But Jaka is still afraid that his father-in-law's health is getting worse when he finds out his son is behind bars.
