The Love of the Captain

Learn to be hypocritical

"How, have you decided, what steps will you take?" berto asked, Arjuna had been in his house for two days, and he still could not accept the reality that happened.

"I will make a calculation with that woman, I will destroy her career and drag her into prison as I promised Luna, if I'm going to avenge everything." Arjuna said with confidence.

"You sure you're gonna fight him? Didn't you love her? You'll hurt yourself if you hurt her, believe me!" berto said casually, Berto's age is much older than Arjuna, in terms of experience in terms of work and love affairs clearly he is more understanding and more senior.

Berto made a bet, he was very sure that Arjuna could not take his love for Chery away, and his current hatred was an expression of his anger, after all, Berto also put his pity on Chery who he thought was not entirely guilty in this matter, Berto even assigned some of his men in the Capital to investigate the matter secretly.

"Currently, let's just say it's my biggest mistake, loving the cunning woman who killed my future wife." Decih Arjuna tried to deny that the feeling was still in his heart.

"Okay, whatever your feelings may be, only you know, but for a truth, at least you need another proof, you need to use your logic, not your anger, you need to use another proof, you can't rush to accuse that it's a woman's fault, too many truths you ignore just because of your ego." Berto tried to remind him as a friend.

But Arjuna seemed to have turned into a fool, "Of course I will look for other evidence, after that put him in custody."

"If you want to find more evidence, you better come to my game, you'll get plenty of evidence where it'll open your eyes and determine your attitude toward your woman" Berto said.

"What game?"

"Receive my offer to be betrothed to Ines Hartono, the only daughter of the Great Hartono family." Challenge Berto.

"You're crazy, do you think my problems aren't complicated enough, so you want to add new problems to me, you're using me in the end for your own mission, what kind of friend are you, I'm lazy to deal with a general as wrong as he is!" pissed Arjuna.

"Trust me, this is not just my mission, but it can also benefit you in solving your problems, you think this problem could just disappear from police records without any interference from high-ranking officials in the police force? Think about it, which police general is closest to Hasan Basri?" Berto began to make Arjuna waver with his own mind, right said Berto, this must have been the intervention of the superior in his office, he who was only a middle officer would have no power if he had to fight with the higher-ups in his office.

"Do you think that Agung Hartono is involved in this matter?" tanya Arjuna began to be interested in Berto's discussion.

"I don't know for sure, but my suspicions point there, so you better find out in person, how, you agree with my offer? Trust me, you'll be won a lot if you follow my game this time, I'll arrange your meeting with them tomorrow, if you agree." Barat Berto's.

"Tomorrow?" Arjuna frowned, he didn't think that it would be that fast.

"Hemh, tomorrow there will be a special meeting of the police and intelligence officials, you will come with me, and then it will be my business, you just have to pretend to be interested in Ines, you just need to be interested in Ines, that'sthat's all. Take it easy, he's not so bad, really. Although not as beautiful as your artist." Canda Berto's.

Arjuna just smiled lazily, there was no other choice for him other than to agree with Berto's idea.

Arriving at the appointed time, Arjuna and Berto fly to the Capital, attending a meeting held in a villa, Berto somehow takes care of it, and, the daughter of the general named Ines was actually participating in the event accompanied his father.

"What is this, your best friend who is heartbroken and wants to be paired with me?" seloroh Ines when they had just met, it seems like Berto had lobbed Arjuna directly to his father.

Arjuna was a little stuck, he was also a bit groggy because he met a high general like Agung Hartono who he could only hear the stories of his bad track record among his old office friends, but now he is facing directly.

"Thank you General." Arjuna nodded in a sign of respect.

"I also like, he's handsome and dashing, according to my criteria, let's chat elsewhere, let them talk about the country, we talk about our future only!" Invite Ines, she is a woman who is quite brave and initiative, maybe because raised in a wealthy family and in fear, so she seems a bit wild and arbitrary.

Arjuna could only follow the way Ines took him, there was no interest in the woman who was casually spoiled in his firm hands, this was all for the sake of the mission, so he had to let the woman behave as she wished.

Arjuna tried to compensate for Ines' chatter, as Berto ordered, he also showed his interest in the 28-year-old woman, who was quite mature for the size of a woman, only two years younger than him.

"I feel good about you, and I want to introduce you to all of my family, in a few days my father and mother will be having their wedding anniversary, I'll introduce you as my future husband there" Ines said.

"I'm not used to being in that kind of atmosphere" Arjuna said.

"Only a few important state officials and police officers were present, maybe in addition to some of the top artists as well, you should get used to such an event, take it easy there is me." His word.

"Is there an artist?" Arjuna raised his eyebrows, hearing the artist's words a little like pinching.

"Yes, my mother, more precisely, tang invited them, it's normal. It was a prestige if it could invite big-name artists like Chery Arleta, Rey,,," Ines' speech had to stop, because Arjuna suddenly spouted a drink that was in the sip and coughed because it choked when Chery's name was mentioned by Ines.

*Flashback off.

Arjuna's step up when holding Ines at the wedding anniversary event his parents are not as firm as his heart now, his heart thumped, remembering that today he might meet Chery for the first time in nearly two months, his eyes occasionally sweeping across the room hoping to find Chery, but he didn't even see the shadow there.

Arjuna sat down with Hartono's extended family, along with other guests of honor, Arjuna had thought he would be at a table with Chery, praying that Hasan Basri and his wife also sat down at a table with him, His hopes of meeting Chery again ran aground.

She hated the girl so much, but why was her subconscious always expecting her presence, this was puzzling, she seemed to have not fully been able to control her feelings for Chery at the moment.

Until finally, his wish was granted by God, from a distance Arjuna was able to see Maya who was none other than the mother of Ines flanking Chery's arm and heading to their table, the girl looked like the most shining star among the guests, with a long black dress wrapping up Chery's appearance so graceful, the sabrina collar model showing off her smooth shoulders made Arjuna snort in annoyance, she said, he didn't like it when Chery's body parts were seen by many people there, but the closer Chery got, the video showed clearly in his mind, making him finally turn his face pretending to ignore the presence of the girl who had been in the most in the way since.

Chery's face looks pale and stiffened at the sight of her, but the girl also looks very hurt when Maya introduces Arjuna as her future daughter-in-law, the pain that Chery is feeling right now seems to be also felt by Arjuna, especially when he acts as if he does not know Chery and says hurtful words for the girl, especially when he acts like a child, again the right words, every hurtful word he said to Chery, turned out to feel the same pain, but he had to learn to be a hypocrite from now on, even though it's hard.

Arjuna bothered to go to the toilet as Chery rushed to leave the table with teary eyes, he wanted to follow where Chery went, there was still a sense of worry if Chery did something stupid, he said, especially when he saw Chery half-run towards the balcony, his heart was anxious if until Chery was short-minded and chose to jump from up there, from his shaking shoulders, and then he was very nervous, Arjuna could guess that Chery was crying right now.

"Darling, why was it here, not just from the toilet? Come on, time to dance!" Take Ines.

Making Arjuna forced to leave Cheri at the Balcony alone, but her heart suddenly felt hot as if it was burning when suddenly on the sidelines of her dancing activities, she saw Chery disappear in the body of a man, and then she could not help but, Arjuna was really curious who the man who now only saw his back, Arjuna's heart felt like it was burning violently.
