Love is Named Us

Cold War

I entered the room in annoyance. The unusual door in the lock now I close it tightly. Gafi repeatedly knocked on the door to open it, but I repeatedly refused. I don't want to hear anything from him and I don't want to see him for now either.

Both of us are still hard at the moment. I need time to cool my hot heart. And I also need to digest the situation that is happening right now.

I haven't been able to accept Gafi's treatment of Martin. He is a friend who always helps me. I really don't feel good about Martin because of Gafi's treatment. He shouldn't have done that to her.

I threw my body on this soft bed. My mind floated thinking of this and that. There is no peace in my mind at the moment.

The rain also has no sign of going to subside, even more intense. Adding to the atmosphere in this house.

Slowly I began to fall asleep until I didn't realize that Gafi was by my side. It was clear that he could enter this room. He must have had the spare key to the whole room.

Gafi looked at my sleeping face, making sure I slept comfortably.

" I'm sorry, Yuna, it made you angry."

" You don't know that I'm always watching you at work. That's what I did because I knew Diana would do something to you. But, I wasn't even there when you were attacked, instead another man helped you and kept you there."

" I don't like you getting too close to him. It was in her eyes that you weren't just a friend to her, but you didn't notice."

" I'm sorry."

After saying those words, Gafi walked out of the room. He chose to sleep in the other room.

All this time Gafi told the Son to take care of me. The son always stands in front of the cafe. Whatever he saw, he always reported it to his master. Gafi always knew how I was doing there through the Son even about Martin.

At the time of the incident, Putra immediately contacted Gafi. But it was Martin who helped me. Gafi, who heard that I was with Martin, rushed to me.

That's when Gafi saw me at home with Martin. His anger suddenly peaked and so did I. I, who felt that I had done nothing wrong and was angry with him, insisted that my relationship and Martin were only friends, but Gafi meant something else with our relationship.

Our relationship has also become tense and heated. I don't want to talk to him even though Gafi's trying to make peace.

...****...

I woke up from my sleep. I saw the clock on the wall already showing at half-seven.

I jumped out of my bed because I had bad luck. I rushed to take a shower too.

After I finished cleaning, I picked up a shirt and jeans to wear.

I just put powder and lipstick on my face, then I tied my hair neatly.

I rushed out to prepare to leave. There was neither Gafi nor Putra, but two men I did not know came up to me.

" Mistress," greet them.

" Who are you?" I was amazed by their presence.

" We'll take care of the Madam here "

" Guarded? Whatdoes thatmean? I don't need that, I have to go to work."

" I'm sorry, ma'am, you can't go anywhere including going to work."

" What? Why can't I get out of this house?"

" We're just following orders from Mr. Gafi."

I don't care what they say. I barged out, but the two men intercepted me. I warned them, but my efforts were in vain.

" Do you have to be like this to me."

" I'm sorry Madam."

I went back to my room too.

I took my phone, and I pressed a number.

" Hello Yuna" Gafi said from the other end of the phone.

" Why are you doing this to me? Am I a prisoner now."

" I'm sorry, stay home."

" But we've agreed, as long as I follow your terms, I can work, then why is it like this."

" You've violated one of my conditions, Yuna. You're coming home with someone else."

" But yesterday was no ordinary day. Why don't you understand either."

" A treaty that has been broken will have consequences. You have to understand too."

" Gafi, why do you have so much heart for me. Is this what you said took good care of me?"

" It's for your own good, Yuna."

" My goodness or your kindness."

" Yuna understands."

Gafi did not answer.

" Do you protect me from Diana's actions or don't you want me to meet Martin? Say it!"

" Both, so stay home."

Gafi hung up the phone. I sat on the floor. He really used the power he had.

" You're such a bitch."

I was completely inexhaustible with Gafi's treatment of me this time. I don't know what's on his mind and I don't know what plans he's building for me.

I didn't know what was going on until he made this very strange decision. I locked up in this house.

" Alright, you're making this war, Gafi."

...****...

I spent my time reading books neatly arranged on this not-so-big shelf. There are various types of books on display here, ranging from history, economics and literature. Gafi likes to read books, just like me.

The sound from my phone distracts me. I hurried to get my phone and put Tia's name on it.

" Hello Tia," I replied as I lifted up

phone from him.

" Where are you?"

" At home. Gafi won't let me out."

" Why?"

" I don't know..."

" Yuna, why didn't you tell me you were going to resign?"

" Ha?? Resigning? I didn't do that."

" But your resignation letter is here and the boss has read it."

" What? But I'm not resigning. Who did it."

" I don't know, so I'm asking you."

" It's not Gafi."

" Are you sure?"

" Of course, he could've locked me up here, let alone done something like that."

" You can't accuse him of that. Maybe Gafi had other intentions behind all his actions."

" Why are you defending him."

" I'm not defending him, but what's happening is not just your resignation. The situation in the cafe is also messy, it seems like there are people who intentionally damaged this place."

" Are you serious?"

" Of course I'm serious, anyway for what I'm lying."

" Why is it so complicated. Did Gafi also do the vandalism."

" Don't accuse him, you'll regret it."

" Who do you think?"

" I don't know, for sure people think that you did this because of your sudden resignation letter."

I let out a breath.

" Pacify yourself and don't be rash."

" Yes." Yeah."

" I close first. It's a mess here."

" Ok."

The phone connection was also cut off. What a shocking news. All possible leads to Gafi, whether he does it or not, I don't know either. Gafi could have done just that, but for what he did such a dirty thing.

" No-no. This is impossible."

It's getting more complicated and confusing. I don't know who else to believe in, I'm really confused.

" Gafi, I hope it's not you."
