SUPPOSE THAT...

SUSPICIOUSLY

Marisa screamed and tried to mediate.

"You hugged your own brother and created a scandal that resulted in all this ?" Jonathan's still pulling Dave's collar.

Dave looked at her with a deep frown. "We're not brothers, you know that, right ?" his words are calm.

Jonathan's eyes were round. He understood Dave's words, and his emotions grew stronger. His hands clenched back, ready to float towards Dave who was looking at him fearlessly.

"Enough !" marisa snapped while holding Jonathan's hand. "Stop !" he continued in a loud voice.

They felt bad and both respected the woman. Both Jonathan and Dave let go of each other with emotions still so visible.

"Dave, I know, surely you and Kirana have a reason why you can hug and get caught on a paparazzi camera." Marisa said to Dave whose face still looks gloomy with slightly bruised cheeks. "Whatever it is, I believe it's a good thing. The media simply take a chance and spice things up negatively for personal gain." Marisa opined.

Dave looked away. He wanted to deny it, but was unable to.

Only Jonathan knows the meaning of it all. Both of his hands were staring at Dave. "Where might Kirana like Dave ?" he said in his heart. Jonathan couldn't believe it, but his felling led to it.

"We'll talk about this later Dave." Marisa said to Dave who was bowing silently. "Now what matters isn't Kirana ?" face's bleaching.

Like just realizing something important. Jonathan and Dave finally choose to forget their dispute.

"Where was Kirana last Oba-san ?" ask Jonathan.

"She's in the room." replied Marisa inexplicably. "Even just an hour ago, the waiter delivered snacks for Kirana and Shopie" he continued.

"Shopie ?" Dave and Jonathan said at the same time.

"Yes, Shopie had been staying here for two days, accompanying Kirana who was shocked by the cat's terror." Marisa explained.

Jonathan and Dave looked at each other.

"Isn't cat terror the culprit of insiders ?" Dave asked doubtfully.

"Not yet to know Dave." Marisa is worried.

"All cctv is turned off. He knew Kirana's room from the many rooms in the thirty-story building." Dave pulled out his analysis.

"The cat that was killed was also the stray cat that Kirana used to feed." Marisa says.

"Didn't you suspect why the perpetrator knew so much about Kirana ?" dave asks Marisa, but her gaze leads to Jonathan who seems to be thinking hard.

"..The perpetrator must have been investigating about Kirana ?" guess Marisa is doubtful.

Dave's gaze was directed at Jonathan who was stunned to hear all that.. "Maybe you want to say something, Jonathan ?" Dave emphasized on his last sentence.

"Shopie is a fan of mine. But Shopie is also Kirana's best friend." Jonathan says. "It's impossible that Shopie did it." Jonathan could not believe it.

"What are you talking about ?" Marisa who was in the middle of the two young people did not understand. "Shopie's been like a family and he's a very good boy. He also guides Kirana in the office when Kirana is not yet able to with the workload she is responsible for." Marisa said at length.

"Only the police can prove it." Dave was still staring at Jonathan.

"You're accusing Shopie, but you're the problem yourself !" snapped Jonathan. He knows Shopie well. It wasn't a year or two, and Jonathan was sure it wasn't possible for Shopie to kill and put a cat carcass on Kirana's desk.

Dave frowned and looked away from Jonathan. "Mom, I need Shopie's cell phone number and her home address." Dave said to Marisa.

Dave doesn't care about it. He typed in the phone number and Shopie address that Marisa gave him and left immediately.

Only Jonathan and Marisa were there when Dave drove away in his red Lamborghini Aventandor Lp 700-4.

"Calm down Oba-san." Jonathan said as Marisa's face grew anxious. "Maybe Kirana just wants to get rid of all the problems that exist" he continued.

"But why don't you say ?" marisa's eyes glazed over at Jonathan. "Kirana's whole life has never been like this. He always asked permission first if he wanted to leave." his tears came back.

Jonathan also feels the worry of Marisa. But at this moment his mind broke when he remembered Dave who was accusing Shopie of taking Kirana away. "But if it's Shopie, doesn't it mean Kirana just wants to calm down by helping Shopie escape from home ?" Jonathan second guessing.

That night everyone was sent to find Kirana. But they did not rush to use the Police, as this was related to the privacy of his Marthadinata Family. They do not want this sniffed by the media, considering the scandal that Kirana made is not over.

So is the risk if related to public figures, all become public consumption. If it is not smart to behave, it can backfire. Considering whatever news is about them, it can be money.

Dave goes to the Shopie address Marisa gave him. Ten minutes later Dave pressed a button located on the edge of a high gate that covered the entire house and its spacious courtyard.

"Who's looking, Mas ?" a Residential Security guard who was accidentally walking around saw Dave who was standing pacing back and forth in front of the gate.

"The owner of this house, Shopie Ashraf ?" Dave asked as he pointed at the house that was just in the garden lights.

"It's been a long time, Mom." The security guard grew up and was riding on a montor bike he said.

Dave's surprised. He walked up to him and began to ask the security guard a lot of things.

"It was said that Mr. Ashraf had a stroke since he escaped his wife with his young mistress. All assets sold, including this house." The security guard pointed at the yellow writing that was not too noticed by Dave because it was dark.

Dave gulped. Not because of Shopie's family. But because his heart was racing faster by his bad thoughts.

"Where are his children ? Shopie ? I'm his friend." Dave tried to be calm.

"That's what I don't know." the Satapm said. Dave's face looked disappointed. "But if it's not wrong Miss Shopie came here a few days ago. But not to see me, but my friend.."

"Yes, then ?" cut Dave impatiently.

"Only deposit commission money because it has cleaned the Villa where Mr. Ashraf is treated." The security guard explained.

"In which area is the villa ? Shopie lives there ?" Dave asked back. I don't know why he could be so powerful about accusing Shopie of being behind all this. His feelings just say so.

Meanwhile, in a second-hand storage warehouse. Kirana with both hands tied behind her back and her mouth covered in duct tape rounded her eyes wide as the tip of the sharp object was pointed at her.

"We make her face broken." a woman with a face covering said.

"So that Jon does not need to be too hurt." the sound of cackling that looks like a kuntilanak makes kudu Kirana bristles.

"It's not pretty, but it can make Jon captivated." the woman with the face cover plays her penknife into Kirana's cheek.

Kirana's getting scared. Both of his eyes shed tears. But he can't scream.

"His eyes are beautiful." one of the masked women spoke again. "Maybe it's his eyes that interest Jon."

"Then just gouge his eyes, and put it on Jon."

The woman's words greeted the laughter of two other colleagues.
