Minutes before Amanda's death
THE PLAQUE!!
“DON'T EVER DARE TO DO THAT!! I CAN ELIMINATE YOU ANYTIME!!”
Aditya who just came out of the room that Setya occupied was shocked to hear a rowdy sound coming from the room next to him. The door of the room was indeed not closed, so the man could hear the quarrel taking place. He could see clearly how Indira slapped Amanda earlier.
Indira is surprised to see Aditya who witnessed what happened between him and Amanda. He looked at the man until Aditya left immediately. Indira is back to focusing on Amanda. The woman held onto her slapped cheek while looking at Indira with her blighted eyes.
“Look at it, I will repay all your deeds to me.”
“Don't say much. Just leave Mahes, if you live your life calm.”
Indira snatched her bag that was on the nightstand. He takes a quick look at Amanda before exiting the room. In front of the room he saw Ara talking to Aditya. From their body language, it appears that the two do not get along.
“Don't be too confident. The love of bang Ad to you has long been lost, ever since she caught you making out with your own lecturer. So stop chasing bang Ad. He is not an innocent man you can play around with at will.”
Aditya patted Ara tapu on the shoulder and then blew it off as if the shoulder was dirty and full of dust. Regardless of Ara's sharp gaze on her, the man walked into the elevator casually.
After the elevator door closed, Ara confirmed her hair and then walked to her destination. In the middle of the corridor he stopped right in front of Indira who was stepping towards him.
“How? Have you spoken to him?” ask Ara.
“Hmm.. she's pretty stubborn too.”
“Take it easy. I'm sure Mahes won't care about it.”
“But I'm afraid he's coming to my family.”
“We will think of another way. Let's go downstairs, don't leave your husband too long alone. Many want your husband.”
Ara pulled Indira's hand, they walked towards the elevator. After waiting for a while, the waiting elevator finally arrived as well. The two immediately entered the elevator. Ara flicked the G button and the iron box moved down.
“I wonder, why are you still defending Mahes? Is that how much you love her?” ask Ara.
“In addition, I also do not want my two brothers to point my forehead. Those who oppose my relationship with Mahes are dying. I even prostrated myself under my feet to approve our marriage. I don't want to look defeated and let my two brothers smile win because the estimate is correct.”
“But your life will suffer if you stay with Mahes.”
“Not why. I'll keep Mahes by my side. Amanda's problems can pressure her to stay by my side. Then what about you? Mahes is your friend, but why are you siding with me?”
“You want honest answers? Of course the answer money.”
Ara smiled obliquely. He doesn't care about Mahes, Indira and Amanda. He just wants money. The woman can get money from Mahes as well as Indira. There's nothing more valuable to him now than money. And just stupidly Indira believed it. Without the woman knowing that Ara is one of the blankets of her husband's life.
Meanwhile, after Indira's death, Amanda still survives in her place. The woman wept bitterly, her pride felt humiliated by Indira's haughty attitude. He swore he would take Mahes from her.
Amanda wiped her tears, then took the cell phone from inside her bag. A message from Mahes came into his phone. The man asked her to meet at the hotel rooftop. Mahes had prepared a surprise for him. Amanda's smile expands reading the message.
After putting the phone back in the bag, Amanda stood up. He wiped the remaining tears on his face, only then came out of the room. Long enough the woman stood in front of the elevator, waiting for the iron box to reach the floor. After the elevator doors opened, Amanda immediately went inside. His hands are on the 20th floor. The highest floor in the hotel.
Arriving at the rooftop, Amanda looked around. The atmosphere of the rooftop is quiet and also dark. His head looked up when he saw a drone flying over him. Suddenly he felt a blunt blow to his head. Instantly the body collapses.
An unconscious Amanda is dragged into the balcony railing. Someone seemed to be dragging the pregnant woman's body. Then with great difficulty he pulled Amanda's body to his feet. Installed Amanda into the rooftop barrier. Then with all her might threw Amanda down.
Amanda's body slid down through Setya's open window, leaving the couple shocked. The force of gravity pulls Amanda down until it falls on a car underneath. Instantly the sound of car alarms rang out, shocking everyone who was there.
🌸🌸🌸
Dawn went into the interrogation room. This is the second time he's going to interrogate Mahes. The friend at his school sat down while leaning his back against the back of the chair. His eyes looked straight at Dawn. He never expected to face Dawn in the interrogation room.
“Others you want to ask? I told you when Amanda fell in the ballroom,” Mahes said.
“You were there, but that doesn't mean you didn't send that person to eliminate him.”
“For what did I eliminate it?”
“Because she's pregnant with your child. Your position is threatened by it.”
Mahes's mouth was silent at the words of Dawn. The man never thought his relationship with Amanda would be this complicated. His life is chaotic, his plans are in disarray and he has to deal with his own friend who is a criminal.
“Listen.. I didn't kill Amanda, or tell people to do it.”
“But Amanda's phone has a message from you telling her to rooftop.”
“Hapeku lost. How many times do I have to say it,” Mahes patted her forehead in annoyance. Dawn kept on corrupting her.
“When did you lose?”
“Two hours before the event. I don't know I don't know for sure. Because of the busyness in the hotel I did not realize it.”
“You know that besides yourself, your wife is also the prime suspect?”
“Indira?”
Mahes's eyes were round hearing it. If Indira is the prime suspect, then his wife knows about his affair with Amanda. The man squeezed his hair tightly. His head was like it was about to break.
The interrogation process came to a halt when Fajar's phone rang. The man immediately answered his call when he saw Aditya's name on the phone screen.
“Halo.”
“Halo, bang. I've already got footage from drone.”
“Where are you?”
“I'm again in the office. I'm still waiting for Setya bang. He's the one who got the tape.”
“You wait there. Brother to there now.”
“We met at dojang hero, bang.”
“Oke.”
After the call from Aditya ended, Dawn rushed out of the interrogation room. He left Mahes behind and entrusted his men to continue the interrogation. The man got in the car and then drove away.
🌸🌸🌸
Just now that Aditya had finished contacting Dawn, Setya had already arrived at the office of record label The Soul. For security, they agreed to meet at the office. Aditya takes Setya to the Wira's room. He opened the drone footage through a laptop that was there. Amanda's killer's face was clearly captured through the drone's camera.
Aditya really did not expect to see the perpetrator of the murder. His heart suddenly fretted, afraid that the people closest to him threatened his safety. Besides the man, Setya also felt the same unease.
“Actually after I took the recording, someone came to see my sister. Luckily, he deleted the footage from the drone. But I'm not sure if they believe. You have to be careful.”
“Abang itself how?”
“Quietly, I'm not here by myself. There are some friends who accompany you just in case. You don't go alone. Looks like I was followed by them.”
“Iya, bang.”
“I go first. Careful, Dit.”
After emptying the usb, Aditya copies the drone footage into the usb. For a moment he weighed, where should he keep this usb. It's too risky to leave it to his band or Adrian. They must have been targeted first. The man's hand continued to scroll through the rows of contacts on his phone. Then he stopped in Dita's name. Aditya decides to contact the woman.
“Halo.”
“Halo, Ta. Busy no?”
“Ngga, why?”
“Can I go to my label office no, now?”
“Can. Where?”
“I sent the location. Later go straight up to the second floor.”
“Ok.”
The call ended. While waiting for Dita to come, Aditya again contacted Fajar. He intended to change the location of the meeting, but the man did not answer his call. He finally decided to send a message. Says it will send the location of its existence if it has left the office.
After waiting for about fifteen minutes, Dita arrived at the office. The woman immediately headed to the second floor. Aditya asks Dita to enter the room of the Hero. Now he's sitting opposite Aditya.
“What's up, Dit?”
“I want help. Can't you keep this for me?” Aditya gives usb in his hand.
“Save aja?”
“Iya. Don't love anyone but me or bang Ad who asked. Can ya?”
“Ok.”
“Still yes, Ta.”
“Sama-sama, Dit.”
“It's nice to know you. Sorry if I had anything wrong or offended you.”
“Apaan is you. Lebaran is still far away,” Dita laughed a little, trying to get rid of the strange feelings that inhabit him.
“Udah now?” ask Dita.
“Udah.”
“Then I go home yes.”
“Ok. Once again thank you.”
Dita just lifted her thumb, then the woman moved from her seat. Aditya just looked at Dita's departure. Hope Amanda's killer doesn't know Dita's whereabouts as one of the people close to her.
Ten minutes after Dita left, Aditya left. The man climbed on his mount and put on his helmet. His gaze circulated for a moment, trying to figure out if anyone was stalking him. He immediately launched his vehicle.
Aditya drives his vehicle at moderate speed. Sometimes he sees his mirror. Since he left the office until now, there is a motorcycle that continues to follow him. There were two sturdy people on the bike who followed him.
Aware his condition was in danger, Aditya pulled his vehicle over in front of the cigarette stall. He bought a drink first, then sat himself on his bike. The motor that followed him also stopped. Aditya picks up the phone in his jacket pocket and then calls Fajar again.
“Halo.”
“Where are you? Brother already in dojang,” asked Fajar from sebrang.
“I'm still on the road. I'm sending you the location now, bang. Someone follow me.”
“Stay in crowded places, so that they cannot hurt you.”
“Iya, bang.”
Aditya put the phone back in his jacket pocket after the call ended. In its place now there are several online objects gathered. It seemed like the person who followed him would not dare to attack him here.
Ten minutes passed, but the dawn had not yet come. From the rearview mirror Aditya could see one of the people who followed him down from the motorbike and approached him. His hands were like he was pulling something out of his jacket pocket. The man was getting closer, now Aditya can clearly see the object in the man's hand is a knife.
Aditya quickly twitched as the man tried to stab him. It turned out that Aditya's estimation was wrong, being out in the open even he dared to attack him. The fight soon. Online objectors tried to separate, but they retreated to see a knife in the hand of Aditya's assailant.
The man continued to attack Aditya with a knife in his hand. Several times Aditya twitched, then threw a kick into the man's hand until his knife was released. Again Aditya threw a kick until the man fell down. The father of Arkhan got on his bike and left.
A chase soon takes place on the highway. Aditya drives his vehicle at high speed. At a crossroad, he passed by the car of Dawn. Knowing Aditya is being pursued, Fajar immediately turned back his car and caught up with his best friend's sister.
Aditya's eyes stared at the red traffic light. He started to lower his speed. A few meters before the intersection, the lights had turned green. Aditya directly tancap gas. Just past the red light, a vehicle from the left hit him hard.
Dawn immediately put the brakes on his vehicle when he saw Aditya's body separated from the motor he was riding and then fell hard onto the asphalt. One of the people chasing him moved quickly towards Aditya then ransacked the man's pants pocket and jacket. After successfully obtaining the usb that Setya had given him, he immediately left.
Coinciding with that Dawn arrived near Aditya. Some people have covered him. Dawn approached Aditya who was sprawled on the asphalt. From the sidelines of his helmet seeped red liquid.
“ADIT!!”
Faintly Aditya heard the voice of Dawn calling out to him. But the man could not move his body. His eyes stared at the sky which was beginning to darken. He could see the face of the Goddess and Arkhan was smiling at him. Slowly Aditya closed his eyes.
🌸🌸🌸
PRANGS!!
The plate in the Goddess's hand came off when Arkhan's rampaging hand slapped him to the ground. It's been half an hour since the boy went berserk, crying doesn't stop. The goddess had tried to calm him down, trying to suckle him but to no avail. Pipit and Roxas also tried to calm down but the boy still continued to rampage.
Adrian comes with Toni and Ida. They had just returned from the house of a neighbor who was doing a study. Hearing her grandson go berserk, Ida immediately approached, but Arkhan rejected her. The boy was crying hysterically. Toni tried to calm him down but was still unsuccessful.
“Arkhan why, Wi? Why suddenly go berserk?” ask Ida.
“Ngga tau, ma. I also don't want.”
“She misses her papa times. Try your phone Adit.”
“Udah, mom. Hape is not active.”
“Aduh. He said just for a moment but until now why not go home.”
Seeing his nephew continue to cry without stopping, Adrian also wanted to calm him. As he was about to approach, his steps were restrained as the phone in his pants pocket shook. Adrian immediately answers a call coming from his best friend, Dawn.
“Assalamu’alaikum.”
“Waalaikumsalam. Ad.. Adit..”
“Adit why?”
“Adit. He was severely injured in the head and is now in the operating room. Can you go to the hospital now? The Mitra Sehat hospital. Ad.. Ad...”
Adrian's hand fell down upon hearing the news of Dawn. He was struck by lightning in broad daylight. With a pushy look, he looked at the Goddess who was calming Arkhan who was still raging.

**Yesterday² many times when to go to bed, ask cepet² to go up, ask Adit to stop. Now the gate is open even in heart gymnastics, someone asked to change the title also🤣 Kalo replaced so what? BUNK BOUNCY ya🤭
I found 1 more julid account. Read my novel no, just drop by 1-star rate here. He gave me 2x 1 star in my novel, I don't know what he meant. He didn't know what made the novel so hard. If you do not want to read do not need to love 1 star. The 1-star rating of 1 love account is not comparable to 100 5-star love accounts. If he only loves in 1 novel I'm bomat yes, but he has 2x ngelakuinnya, meaning there is an element of intent. Easy²an he insyaf, not carelessly love 1 star to another novel. I immediately blocked his account so he could not access other novels and love 1** stars**.
