The Love of the Captain

The Love of the Captain
I hate you



"I'm not sleepy" Chery replied honestly.


"Why, is it because this house isn't as comfortable as a 5-star hotel?" cynical Arjuna.


"No, it's not, it's,"


"Or do you feel bored because usually at this hour you are still drunk at the club, then make a scene there?" Arjuna now smiled mockingly.


Chery has been very patient with Arjuna since then because she feels he is the one who saved her from the bandits, but if she continues to be provoked with cynicism and sarcasm Arjuna, he said, he also has his own boundaries.


"What's your problem with me, sir? Why from the beginning we met you kept being rude and cynical to me, even when I tried to be nice and polite to you, you kept getting sniffy." Cheri can no longer control herself, her feelings are not good at this time, added Arjuna who in his sense always deliberately ignited his anger, treating him like a big enemy in his life.


"Because I hate you!" really Arjuna wanted to say the reason because he had taken Luna's life, unfortunately he did not have strong enough evidence to say all that.


"Sir, do you have any sort of mind disorder or hallucination, or anything like that? Have you tried to check yourself into a mental institution? How can you hate me when we never knew each other before, after all, if you really hate me, why did you save me?" Chery's anger exploded.


"I saved you only because of my duty, I had been sworn before to do a good job, if I had not been sworn before, I would have ignored my humanity to help you, even if they kill you in front of my eyes once!" Whether what caused Arjuna to talk so rudely to Chery, he just wanted to spill all his frustration and emotions out of control, no matter if Chery was the hitter or not, wasn't it obvious that the car Herman was in when he hit Luna was Chery's luxury car, so he still had a little something to do with it, his inner ego justifying his bad attitude towards Chery.


"sick souls! How can a man without a conscience like you be a police officer who is supposed to protect the community, take it easy, tomorrow morning I will leave here soon to return to the city to meet the crew. If you can hate me for no reason, then now I hate you for a million reasons!" Chery's chest went up and down in anger, her breath was cut off, she was not an ungrateful person by swearing at the person who had saved her, but this was the exception, Arjuna's attitude had exceeded the limits of his patience.


"You'd better prove your point, miss. I've been kind enough to take you tonight, I hope there's no other night for me to do you good."


Chery grunted in annoyance, it felt like she wanted to yell and tear apart the sharp-tongued man, a stranger who always showed her hostility every time they met.


The whole man would usually adore and be very kind to her with her beauty and fame, but Arjuna always looked at her with a look of hatred.


Just now he was a little overwhelmed with the kindness of the man who made him a bowl of noodles, gave him allergy medicine and burn ointment, even he muddied his mind accusing Arjuna of being an inhuman and unrelenting man, but it feels like he is very sorry to ever pull those words, because in reality he is really a jerk.


The rain had subsided, but once the remnants of water from the leaves due to heavy rain overnight still often dripped onto Chery's body when the trees were exposed to the wind or even knocked by his steps, he said, that morning the sun had not yet shown itself, at exactly six in the morning Chery came out of Arjuna's official house, overnight after arguing with Arjuna, his gaze just kept staring at the clock stuck on the wall of the living room, the time felt long as he waited for the short needle in the number 6, and once the moment arrived, the time felt long as he waited for the short needle in the number 6, Chery got out of the house without thinking.


Chery does not want to be stuck with a psychopathic man like Arjuna who hates him for no reason, even he also does not want to just say goodbye to the man, last night she thanked him for his help, and he thought it was enough, talking to him again would only increase his blood pressure.


The further he went, it felt like he was just circling around the forest, he found absolutely no sign that he was going to find a big way, he did not even find anyone along the road that passed by him.


What fate is this, getting lost in the forest, where no one passes, plus his head which is now starting to feel heavy, it seems like he got the flu because of the rains last night.


Chery smiled triumphantly, as she finally found a sizable path, as the sun began to show itself, even the faintest sound of the roar of a motorcycle engine, was heard, but when he looked up and looked at the sound, the blinding sunlight felt so piercing his eyes that his vision suddenly darkened, and he could not remember anything else, Chery fell unconscious.

While at the official house, as usual, at 06.30 am Arjuna was already preparing with his sports clothes, he would exercise half an hour and then take a shower and leave for the office.


Looking into the living room, he did not see Chery there, out of curiosity he went to the kitchen and to the bathroom checking that she might be there, but it turned out to be nil, even her clothes that were wet last night were now gone, and the clothes she had lent to the girl last night were draped in a rope clothesline instead.


"Curtain, pretty brave too! Apparently he's really gone. Let's see how many minutes he'll last in the woods, I'm sure it won't be half an hour he'll give up and come back here." Her lips.


Arjuna's hand grabbed his used clothes in Chery, he planned to put them in the bucket for washing and bathing later, there was no washing machine there.


But when the clothes passed through his face suddenly he was like smelling the usual perfume in Luna, he remembered that the shirt had been given to Chery because it was washed unscented to avoid allergies, and the woman had brought nothing but her body, so there's no way Chery used perfume last night.


The shirt kept smelling her, it was unmistakable, it was the smell of Luna's perfume, but Luna never wore her clothes, Arjuna unbending her intention to put the clothes in the bucket, she kept it in the room, she said, at least the smell will treat his longing for Luna.


An hour passed, but Chery did not return to her service home, Arjuna even to tell the office people that she would leave late because of wondering if Chery would return there, he couldn't wait to scoff all the way to his roots when the girl returned.


Two hours passed, Arjuna's neck felt sore because he kept looking at the main door that he deliberately opened wide, there was a little anxious in case the girl met with bandits in the forest, then in rape or maybe even killed, the bandits there let alone the bandits under the leadership of Ribo, they are very sadistic and unforgiving.


Has he gone too far? While there is no evidence that Chery was involved in Luna's accident, she has judged and even punished her so cruelly, right,?


The anxiety grew and increased when the sun had appeared, but Chery did not return, the woman was just a city girl who lived with a golden spoon since childhood, he would not be able to survive in the forest for that long, guilt began to arise in his heart, it seemed like he was outrageous, he felt petty for bullying a girl for no reason, no reason, just because his estimates are not necessarily true.
