Rizal pays attention to the draft agreement that Vito has made. He just got a new assignment from a client to handle a land dispute case. The landowner was about to expel the people who built the buildings on the land he owned for many years without the permission of the landowner.
" Okay, this is right. Directly printed only," Rizal orders Vito.
" good, Sir. Oh yes, sir, Mr. Harjo had informed him that he would pay off payments for the case that we have finished next week," said Vito told the news conveyed by one of his clients.
" Okay, no problem, Vit. Mr. Harjo often use our services and so far there is no problem with his payment," said Rizal.
" Good, sir." said Vito. " What about Miss Grace? Has Mr Rizal not seen Miss Grace yet?" Vito asked that, because since arriving at the office, Rizal did not mention Grace at all. Though according to the plan, Rizal will bring Grace to their office.
Rizal glanced at Vito as his men asked about Grace. " Eheemmm, maybe the day after tomorrow we'll pick him up" said Rizal.
" Godd?" Vito's forehead wrinkled. He was wondering, why wait the day after tomorrow? Why wait until the day after tomorrow? " Why the day after tomorrow, sir?" ask curiously.
" Yes, because the day after Miss Grace checked out of that hotel." Rizal.
Rizal's explanation makes Vito even stranger. " I'm sorry, Sir. Why do we have to wait for Miss Grace to check out? Miss Grace is serving her sentence. Why do we have to follow Miss Grace's schedule?" It is certain that the decision taken by Rizal made Vito inexhaustible. Why should they follow Grace? Wasn't Grace's current status their prisoner.
" Hmmm, just let him in there, Vit. I think we can use these two days to think about where he will be placed" Rizal said.
" Oh, you go back to your desk!" Rizal is uncomfortable Vito keeps asking about Grace. He told his men to continue their work.
" Good, sir." Despite feeling strange, Vito finally came out of his boss's office.
Rizal massaged his forehead after Vito left his room. Of course, Grace kissing him earlier made herself a little disturbed. Especially if they meet again. He was sure the woman would have mentioned the kiss earlier.
Recalling the kiss, Rizal unconsciously rubbed his lips. He still felt the soft lips of the woman until she touched his lips, even though only briefly stuck to his lips.
" The al! Why am I like that ABG kid who just had a first kiss?!" Rizal opened his eyes trying to spread his thoughts about the kiss with Grace and chose to focus on her work.
***
Rizal watched his phone. He turned on the tape from the eavesdropper on Grace's phone. Not much was said by Grace, other than a conversation with the hotel clerk who sent the woman a food order.
Rizal put his phone and folded his hands under his head. His eyes seemed to pierce the ceiling of the roof ceiling of his room. He closed his eyes to rest. However, when her eyes were closed, suddenly Grace's shadow was clearly visible in her eyes.
Rizal gasped, he instantly opened his eyes again, as Grace's always teasing shadow suddenly appeared as his eyes closed. Rizal even immediately grabbed his blanket and got out of bed.
Rizal picks up cigarettes and gas matches in his nightstand drawer, then walks towards the balcony of the room.
Rizal lit a cigarette and smoked it. He's not a heavy smoker. A pack of cigarettes will not be spent in one week. If he can't sleep or is agitated, then he will come into contact with objects that actually damage that health.
Rizal smokes cigarette smoke from the breath in his mouth while rubbing his face rough. He did not expect that the young lady would suddenly mess with his thoughts at this moment.
The Grace case that Rizal handled was actually not a difficult case. However, the woman managed to make him dizzy seven circumference.
" No! I can't get caught up in that woman's game! That woman was deliberately trying to weaken me." Rizal is determined not to be affected by what Grace has done to him.
" He must be sleeping well right now. Without feeling guilty, I messed with my mind." Rizal suspects that what Grace did to him had no effect on the woman. Perhaps the woman was asleep with her dream.
***
Rizal visits David Richard's. He wanted to discuss Joe who might still be in Indonesia and the punishment Grace would undergo next, because Grace failed to be placed in the Panti Wreda.
" No, Zal. Don't waste time looking for the man. You take care of Grace until she changes." It seems David Richard's decision was unanimous not to seek the whereabouts of Joe. Capturing and imprisoning Joe, will definitely draw Grace into it. Because Grace was the one he thought was the brains behind Gavin's assault. While he himself has decided not to process Grace into the legal path.
" Alright, Om. If indeed Om decided not to look for the whereabouts of Joe," said Rizal. He will not force himself to look for the existence of the man who with Grace attacked Gavin. Because he had nothing to do with that man.
" Oh yeah, Zal. Hows it? Did you find the right place to house Grace?" ask David then.
" That's what I want to talk about, too, Om. It's not easy to put Miss Grace anywhere. He's gonna deliberately mess up there. In fact, even at the police station, he dared to act." Rizal told her how difficult it was to tame the young woman.
" Just be honest, Om. This is not a difficult case that I have dealt with. But Miss Grace's attitude really put my patience to the test," complained Rizal, how he was made dizzy seven-rounder Grace was especially naughty act that always teased her faith.
David chuckles at Rizal's complaint. Several times he handed over the case he had faced to Rizal, only this time did he hear the man complain.
" She's actually a brave woman. Too bad he's pointing to the wrong destination." David responded to Rizal's confidences.
" So Om, he's good to be your team, Zal." David thinks that Grace is very suitable to be hired as a team member in the profession that Rizal lives in.
" What does Om mean?" Rizal frowned.
" Grace is a brave woman, has martial arts. Why don't you train him to be a member of the RG Agent team?" david Proposal.
" Om guess, it fits more with Grace's soul, rather than having to work socially with her personal. I know that social work is good and very noble. But, a woman like Grace, she wouldn't be able to just blend into such an environment." David explains what women like Grace deserve.
Rizal exhaled slowly so as not to be seen by David if he somewhat objected to David's proposal about making Grace a member of his team, or in other words working with him in the office of RG Special Agent.
Hiring Grace in the office of RG Special Agent is the same as making her have to meet at all times with Grace. How could she possibly continue to meet Grace, while the woman who had recently been teasing her mind.

Rizal and Vito are standing at Grace's doorstep. Waiting for Grace to open the door as they had already waited five minutes in front of Grace's room after repeatedly pressing the bell button in Grace's room.
" Do we need to borrow a duplicate access card, sir?" Vito proposes to borrow Grace's duplicate hotel room key just like Rizal did two days ago.
" No, no, Vit." Rizal quickly rejects Vito's proposal, as he does not want Vito to be treated to Grace's seductive body, if Vito knows how the woman sleeps.
" Let's just wait a minute" continued Rizal.
Five minutes later or ten minutes later they knocked on the door, pressed the bell and waited at Grace's doorstep, finally opening her hotel room door.
" Ck, it's a real bother, anyway!" It was definitely the swearing that came out of Grace's mouth when the woman appeared with a blanket covering her body up to the head. Only his face showed the face of a pillow that was not covered in a blanket.
" Good morning, Miss Grace. We want to pick you up." Vito greets and talks to Grace, while Rizal turns his face away from the woman.
" Hey, you've been staying at a hotel, haven't you? Check out limit is until twelve noon. It's still morning! Why come early in the morning?! I haven't ordered breakfast yet!" grumbled Grace with a tinge.
" You better pack up, Miss! You we've given you a few days of freedom, and now it's time for you to serve your punishment!" Hearing Grace who did not position herself as a prisoner, Rizal finally spoke to ask Grace to quickly take a shower and pack.
Grace turned her head towards Rizal who spoke without looking at him. Of course Grace could guess why Rizal didn't want to look at her. And it used Grace to humiliate Rizal in front of Rizal's own men.
" If I don't want to take a shower, do you want to take me to the bathroom again, old man? Do you want to feel the kiss with me again?" With a seductive smile, Grace said spoiledly to Rizal.
Grace's words suddenly make Rizal and Vito aghast. Especially Vito who didn't know about it before. Of course Rizal's men were shocked when Grace said that Grace and Rizal had kissed. Vito even immediately focused his eyes on Rizal full of question marks.
" Fifteen minutes, we're waiting for you in the lobby, Miss." Feeling humiliated by Grace in front of Vito. Rizal chose to leave in front of Grace. " Come, Vit!" Rizal walked first leaving Grace. While Vito who is still shocked by the fact about Rizal and Grace finally tailed behind him.
Grace smiled amusedly as she looked at Rizal's face as she alluded to the matter of kissing. For him a prank kiss on Rizal is just a prank act. He did not realize that it actually made Rizal misbehave.
" Hahaha, get to you, old man! Grace was fought ... Who told me to play games with me!?" Grace finally walked towards the bathroom to clean her body.
***
Vito looked at his boss. He was actually curious about the real thing going on between Rizal and Grace. He knew that Grace was the cause of trouble. But, is that woman lying? Meanwhile, Rizal, his boss who he had known so calmly, seemed to change his attitude two days ago. So, does the difference in Rizal's attitude occur due to the kiss said by Grace earlier? That's what really made him acutely curious.
" Why do you see me like that, Vit? Do you believe that woman's words?" Uncomfortable to be noticed by Vito, Rizal immediately reprimanded his men with a ketus tone.
" Oh, no, sir." Vito tepis smiled stiffly in response to Rizal.
" He was intentionally screwed up! Don't be influenced by what he says!" Rizal warns his men not to listen seriously to Grace's words. Of course Rizal did not want his men to think of anything, especially if Vito to convey this news to Isabella.
" Good, sir." Not wanting to continue to be reprimanded Rizal, Vito chose to agree with what was said by Rizal.
***
Currently Grace was sitting in the back seat of the car driven by Vito. Grace decides to be taken away by the two men. Because of course his brain has found a way to make Rizal upset. His only goal, Rizal surrendered and freed himself.
" I'm hungry, we'll eat first! In the restaurant! Not in emperan!" Grace's hungry stomach tells her to stop at the restaurant that opened this morning.
Rizal and Vito look at each other at Grace's request. Vito asks for Rizal's approval. And after Rizal nodded his head, Vito finally looked for a restaurant that was open in the morning.
After arriving at the restaurant that was open since seven in the morning, Grace immediately chose the menu she wanted to eat for breakfast this morning. He chose Chicken Laksa with Lychee Lemongrass while Rizal and Vito chose to order Hot Cappuccino only.
" You guys don't eat? Can't afford breakfast at a restaurant? Just order, don't be afraid, I'll pay." Grace flicked her hands into the air intentionally insinuating as the food and drinks they ordered were already presented in front of their table. Grace seemed to underestimate the financial ability of the two men in front of her.
" We've had breakfast, Miss." replied Vito.
" Oh, it's gotta be on the side of the road, right? Are you treated to him?" Grace pointed at Rizal with her index finger.
" No, Miss. I have breakfast at home" said Vito.
" Oh .." said Grace, starting eating Chicken Laksa. " Hmmm, this is so good, you know! Wanna try?" Grace scoops the chicken laksa and thrusts it in front of Rizal's mouth making the man gasp.
" This is try, man! It's okay, right? Put on the old spoon of my mouth? We've kissed ..." Relaxed, Grace again discussed the matter of kissing in front of Rizal and Vito.
