131. Court

Dreet..!

Bella, who was sitting next to Berta, looked at her phone and found the name of the Typhoon on her phone screen. He wanted to take a call from the Typhoon. However, the trial was running, the atmosphere was so calm, only a voice heard from the judge of the public prosecutor who was asking questions to Pongki.

Bella refuses a call from the Typhoon. However, he immediately sent a message to the man he loved so much.

Sorry, I'm in the courtroom. The trial started 30 minutes ago.

Shortly after, Bella gets a reply to a message from Typhoon.

Yes, I'm sorry if I can't accompany you. I'm on duty. Greetings to mommy yes, and I wish you all the best for Mr. Pongki.

Bella smiled, then she replied to the message.

Thank you, Aamiin. Happy service to you. I love you.

Mas's?

Reply Typhoon.

I'm your future wife, so it's about time I call you 'mas'.

Reply Bella.

So sweet's.. Alright adinda. Work first, you're fine..

Reply Typhoon.

Yes, my dear. Don't forget to take me for a walk tonight. I want to tell you a lot of the same.

Reply Bella.

Yes dear. I'll see you tonight. Your love is much.

Reply Typhoon.

Your love is also much.

Reply Bella.

After that, Bella again saw the trial process. In front there, Pongki was sitting in the sickly chair. The old man looked calm and answered all the questions clearly and honestly.

"So, do you admit that the factory belongs to you?"

"Yes, it's mine" said Pongki.

"How long has the factory been around?"

"It's been about three more years in that area." Answer Pongki.

"Where before?"

"Previously in South Jakarta. But, as I suspected, I moved the factory there."

Everyone in the room nodded in understanding. Pongki was once suspected of being the owner of a drug factory in South Jakarta. The news used to go viral. It's just that the news just disappeared, along with Pongki who ran away and met Anna.

His trial lasted about 3 hours, along with witnesses who testified to Pongki's crimes. Eventually, the trial ended. A second trial will be held in a few weeks.

Pongki is taken by the black-uniformed Police to return to the bus that will take him back to Lapas, along with some of his other inmates. While Bella and Berta, directly assaulted journalists to be questioned on the confession of Pongki during the trial.

Berta tried to avoid the reporters. Not with Bella. Bella lets go of Berta's hand which invites her to save herself from the questions of the reporters.

"Bella!" Berta looked confused with Bella who stopped her steps and looked at the news seekers with a face that looked firm and firm.

"Mr Bella, what do you think of father's confession?" Ask the reporters.

"I, Bella Anastasya Susilo. Deputize my daddy, Pongki Susilo. I want to offer an apology to all Indonesians. For the fault of my father who has corrupted the nation's generation." Bella ducked in front of many people and the camera was glaring at her.

"I know that my father's actions will not be forgiven and very embarrassing. But here my father and family have made amends. Thank you," Bella said. Then, Bella again walked through the reporters who looked less satisfied with Bella's answer.

"One more time, Mr. Pongki is likely to receive a death sentence or life sentence. What's the family response?"

Bella stopped her steps and looked at the reporter who asked. He smiled at the reporter.

"Seek the best prayer. If that is the law that is obtained. Maybe my daei family and daddy are ready to take it." Bella stepped back and entered her car.

"Mbak Bella.. one more mbak!" Call the news seekers.

However, Bella flinched. He started his car engine and left the courthouse.

Berta was silent while staring at Bella who was driving the car.

"Why do you now look so mature and wise? Mami's like meeting Bella with her latest version."

Bella turned to Berta for a moment, then she smiled faintly and looked back at the streets of the capital that looked very crowded during the day.

"Everybody can change mam. But, changing for the better is the choice that should be," Bella said.

Berta smiled, he rubbed Bella's hair gently.

"Mommy loves you more and more Bell. Mami became convinced, if one day the mother is gone, you can live independently better," said Berta.

"Ssttt already, don't talk about dong mi. Mami will always be with Bella, be able to see Bella get married, see my granddaughter born, and see Bella happy together with Typhoon."

"Aamiin, baby.." Berta.

...

Erna was silent on the waiting bench right in front of the room where Amoroso was being treated. He thought of everything that had ever happened. Including his mistakes in the past, to what is happening now.

He is very familiar with the attitude of who is in the Typhoon. He could not deny if it was all a legacy from Galang. Yes, his heart had always said Typhoon was the son of Galang. It's just that he kept denying it. And today, he was saved by the Typhoon. The child he loved so much. If only the Typhoon did not do that, it is possible that Amoroso will now return anfal.

Erna rubbed her tears that had fallen on her cheeks. His concern goes back decades. When she said she was pregnant.

"Mas, I'm pregnant."

"really?" Galang smiled and immediately held Erna's stomach that had not yet bloomed.

"Mas, but this is not your son,"

Instantly the smile on Galang's lips faded. The handsome man fell silent and looked at Erna with disappointed looking eyes.

"Have you not been with me all this time?" Ask Galang.

"Yes, but last month Amoroso came home. I definitely did it with him."

"Are you sure it was Amoroso's son? Is he not my son?"

"No, he's Amoroso's son. He's my husband's son. Mas, I guess our relationship just got here."

As if struck by lightning, Galang was surprised to hear Erna's words.

"meaning?" Ask Galang.

"Mas, I'm pregnant and there's no way we can stay together. It's time we ended it all. The presence of the child will make me more attached to Amoroso. Please, I understand. After all, our relationship is impossible. My parents loved Amoroso very much. I can't leave him."

"But... I'm sure the boy you bear is my son Erna.."

"No, this is Amoroso's son. We've been doing this for months. But, ever since Amoroso came home, I was instantly pregnant."

"Erna, but it could be my son."

"No. We end it here. I'm sorry, sir" said Erna, leaving Galang.

"Darna!" Galang called Erna and chased after the woman. Galang grabbed Erna's wrist and held back Erna's steps.

"What else mas. I want us to end. I'm pregnant, and it's inappropriate if I'm constantly with you!" Erna tried to remove Galang's hand grip from her wrist.

"So our relationship really ended up here?" Ask Galang.

Erna nodded her head.

"If only it was my son how?" Ask again.

"I'm sure this isn't your son." Erna said firmly.

"If I speak that!" It looks very frustrating.

"There's no word for that."

"Erna, I love you. Please don't be like this. I'm not ready to lose you." Galang tries to hug Erna, but Erna tries to avoid him.

"Mas, it's not good to see a mas guy,"

"I don't care about people! Iloveyou! Really, really love you. I don't want to lose you Erna!"

"Mas, I'm married! Please, I cannot continue this relationship. We have sinned enough. I don't want to carry this child in our sins either. I want it to end, really."

Galang fell silent, then he removed the grip of his hand from Erna's wrist. Then, he let Erna start to leave him.

"Erna," Call Galang.

Erna stopped her steps and looked back. He looked at the sad face of the man he loved so much.

"I'll be waiting for you. I want it to be a year, two years, five years, ten years, or even my whole life. I love you like Ravana loves Shinta, and I must give you up for Rama. To give up does not mean to stop loving. You know what to do when you're disappointed. Come back whenever it is. I will always accept whatever your condition is."

"You don't have to do that for me" Erna said.

"It's about the heart, Erna..."

"But you have a life! You deserve to be happy after this! Find another woman, get married, have children and live happily."

"No, my heart stops at you. My love is eternal for you. That's my promise,"

"That's it," Erna resumed her steps.

"I'm not messing with Erna!" Shouted Galang.

However, Erna just kept passing by.

"You'll see Erna!" Shouted again.

..

Erna cried remembering the incident where the separation between herself and Galang. Although they still meet often, but they are not a couple anymore. Especially at the birth of a typhoon. Erna continued to confine herself to Galang. Although Typhoon is very close to Galang, the real father.
