Love for the Mentari

Cold compress

The POV Sugi

From the morning no phone or message from Riri came into my phone, except for one message that just came in. Riri reported that he wanted to go home early today and not come to Restaurant. Her feelings were agitated from not being able to meet him tonight. I got down from the car followed by Mr. Doni, I vaguely heard a female voice like Riri's voice shouting from behind the wall. I quickly searched for the source of the sound.

We hide behind lush trees. As I thought, Riri was behind this wall facing a tall, thin man. I saw Gia crying screaming behind her forbidding Riri to face the man.

Apparently Riri did not care and remained in his place preparing for the attack. I stepped up to go there and help him, but Mr. Doni's hand was in my way.

"Wait a minute sir, let's see what Miss Riri did. I'm sure he won't be careless" Mr. Doni said with a watchful face looking at what was happening in front of his eyes.

I followed what Mr. Doni said "I wish he could really defend himself like he told me" Sugi said in his heart.

I saw him dodging the man's attack nimbly, his hand hitting from below and hitting his chin. Not yet had the man reply, Riri quickly kicked back the bottom. The man fell down and roared in pain.

"What a cool woman this is. Even though her body was tiny she moved very nimble. His attack was on target with an unusually large force" Sugi muttered to himself again in his mind. His face was relieved, there was a smile on the corner of his lips.

The two of them were still watching from a distance. When Riri laughed insanely while holding the wood about to hit the man, Mr. Doni and Sugi looked at each other.

"That's great, Miss Riri, that villain seems to get mental. Madame Riri's crazy acting deserves an award" Mr. Doni whispered while covering his mouth to laugh

Sugi's eyes were sharp to see Mr. Doni who was almost crushed. Mr. Doni swallowed it back, he could only be broken in heart for now.

As Riri shouted the word slicing, pak Doni spontaneously shuddered "extraordinarily eerie" he said as he rubbed his own arm. I also felt that the threat of Miss Riri was really scary.

As they left, I hinted Mr. Doni to come back to prank the man. Mr. Doni put on his mask and moved towards the target.

Many who do not know the background of Mr. Doni besides being smart have also been famous taekwondo athletes like Sugi. Every Sunday afternoon, the two of them still often do exercises together and sparing. That is one of the factors that caused the Wijaya family to choose to hire Mr. Doni as an assistant.

I decided to wait for a while in the car. From a distance I saw Miss Riri and Gia sitting talking on the sidewalk.

Meanwhile, Mr. Doni chased the man when he was about to escape. He beat her several times, including breaking her two fingers while saying "you're bothering the wrong person, stay away from the two women or I'll hunt you back down and break all the bones in your body." Whisper before leaving the man who was in pain half died.

As Gia and Riri get up from there, Sugi gets out of the car and calls Riri

"Mom Riri!"

Riri turned towards Sugi's voice. Sugi walked towards him followed by Mr. Doni who had just returned from his duties.

"Bu Riri and Bu Gia where are you going?" ask Mr. Doni

"I want to take Gia forward, wait for her taxi order to come" I replied with a nervous feeling "Don't she see all these events, hopefully not" I scratched my head that didn't itch. "Gosh, I just realized my hands hurt. I haven't exercised in a long time, this finger of my right hand will definitely be swollen" I grimaced restrained.

"Sir" Sugi moved his head towards them hinting pak Doni to replace Riri driving Gia forward.

Mr. Doni of course understood the gesture and stepped forward "bu Gia let me deliver, Mr. Sugi wants to talk to Miss Riri"

"It's okay Ri, I'm the same Mr. Doni" Gia nodded with a smile, she hugged me again while whispering "i'll be fine, don't worry"

As I approached Sugi, the pain in my hand began to throb. I put my right hand in my jacket pocket, hoping the pain would lessen. "how sir, is there anything you want to talk to me about?"

"Follow me!" his orders then walked towards his car. I followed him without a sound. Sugi opened the car door and entered it. At first I was hesitant, but when I saw Mr. Sugi's cold face popping out, I finally got in the car.

"Close the door" said Sugi again, I obeyed what he said. I saw Mr. Sugi open the mini refrigerator there, take some ice cubes with a clasp and pour it into a small bag of white crackles.

He opened his left palm in front of me as if asking for something. Not understanding his point, I asked him "What did you ask?"

He pulled my right hand out of my jacket pocket. I tried to hold it in, but Sugi's cold face reappeared with a small frown next to his eyebrows a sign of getting upset. I finally resignedly gave my hand to her for the loss of that irritated frown on her face. "I think it's awful to look this upset"

My fingers that turned out to have been flushed in his swab slowly with wet wipes.

"Shhh..shi...." I hissed with the pain. Then he put the ice cubes in the white crackle bag over my finger. Then he put my hand on the seat.

"Ck! I guess he saw the incident earlier, I have to how is this?!. Did he see me like that crazy guy?. Ahhh shit, wanna put where my face is" I'm starting to panic

"Why silence?" Sugi's voice returned me to the real world.

"Why does Mr. Sugi know, my hands are swollen?"

"I'm a former taekwondo athlete" His eyes looked at me sharply

"Mr saw the incident?"

Sugi nodded

"From the beginning? I mean all of it?!"

He nodded again, I closed my face with my left hand in shame.

"In addition to learning martial arts, where was acting school?" Sugi asked with a faint smile arch at the corner of his lips.

"Ahhhhh, that ,.. Ck! it's spontaneous sir" I said, looking down

"Mmm Spontaneous, if it turns out that person is stronger, more good and calls the group how?" There was a tinge of worry in Sugi's question

"Come, sir, I just want to save Gia" I replied slowly, suddenly feeling sorry for acting without thinking.

"Next time don't get into fights again. Extremely dangerous. Look, just hit one hand Miss Riri so red like this. Why not call me?" his eyes this time looked shady paying attention.

"I don't think that far sir"

"While taking a leave of absence until bu Riri's hand recovers properly" he said later

I nodded so that this conversation would be over quickly but in my mind it was different "for how to leave, Mr. Daniel just landed tomorrow at midnight. Not necessarily the next day he went to the office" I thought about my work piling up. "Gia must have taken a day off after that. While the others already had a row of schedules that they pinned on their respective desktops" I sighed unconsciously
