The Love of the Captain

The Love of the Captain
Is this what I want?



Arjuna ran down the aisle, the hospital informed him that his mother was in critical condition at the moment.


The old woman of the caretaker who had been considered as her mother and often called her by the name of the mother was rolled weak helpless, the room was quiet, and the room was quiet, only occasionally is the sound of an electrocardiograph machine that measures and records the patient's heart activity.


"Your mother kept calling Luna's name and yours since then, until finally she was exhausted, your photo is still held tightly." Said Doctor Bela, pointing to the right hand of Mother Ami who grasped a piece of photo.


It feels like seeing people who have been considered as mothers who have been tormented because of loss, since the death of Luna, the health of the old woman is often dropped, in addition to the mind, because of the old woman's health, maybe it's all because of the age factor that is already old.


"Bun, Juna is here.Mother recovers yes, Juna does not go again, Juna has moved tasks near Mommy again." Bisik Arjuna, stroking the back of his mother's wrinkled hands.


Hearing the voice of Arjuna, the most proud of his beloved son, the old woman's eyes slowly opened, her smile broke as her gaze focused on the handsome face of her foster children who had now successfully become gallant officers.


"Luna-" the old woman whispered softly, even her voice barely audible.


"Mother don't keep thinking about Luna, she's already happy in heaven. Mother must be healthy, later we pilgrimage to the place of Luna together." Arjuna said, with tears.


The old woman's eyes closed again after hearing Arjuna's words just now.


"So, what happened to my mother?" panic Arjuna.


Doctor Bela immediately sped up and checked the condition of Mother Ami.


"He's just asleep, let your mom rest." The word bela after carefully examining the state of his patient.


Arjuna's heart was getting raging, especially when he heard his mother's last word, he only mentioned Luna's name, it seemed like Luna's sudden departure was really a heavy blow to the bodies of old Ami.


The anger at Arjuna in Chery reached its peak at this time, the man immediately returned to the office with a million anger in his chest for Chery whom he considered to be the cause of all this painful series of events.


"Dawn, give me all the evidence files on the Luna accident case, I'll crack it down right now, I don't want the killer to laugh and be arrogant, while my mother was hurt and crying for the loss of her beloved daughter." Tell Arjuna when he just got to the office.


"Chery Arleta's file? A-you're gonna open the case?" stuttering Dawn, nothing, he only worried about the safety of his superiors, as he would fight is Hasan Basri, one of the most cunning and powerful high officials in the country.


"But Ndan,"


"Look down, no one will suspect us, we'll just play behind the scenes, like those cunning tyrants." Arjuna stared blankly at the window of his study, anger making him blind to his eyes and heart.


"And are you sure?" ask Dawn again looking a little worried.


"Are you beginning to fear fulfilling your promise, to handcuff and deliver your idol artist behind bars with your own hands if the woman is found guilty, didn't you find all the evidence yourself?" picing Arjuna makes Dawn look groggy because of it.


The next day, the,


Chery got down from her apartment to the parking lot in the basement of the building, to set off for filming as usual. But just getting out of the elevator, dozens of journalists immediately stormed it, it seems they had been waiting for his arrival since then, but the security of Chery's apartment building was notoriously tight, so they could not maduk inside.


Chery who feels not in a scandal or any problem she is just trying to look calm, especially she also does not feel anything wrong.


"Chery, did you really hit someone ten months ago?"


"That you were under the influence of drugs back then, you were driving drunk?"


"Do you know the woman who was the victim of you died?"


All the reporters were scrambling to ask a question that even Chery himself didn't know, from where and how the reporters came to know the accident that had happened a long time ago and he had completed the family with his victims.


"Emhh, the incident is long gone, and it has been resolved in a family manner, the victim also survived did not die as alleged, another, the victim whom I hit a man, he said, not a girl."Chery tried to explain what happened to defend herself.


"Chery, are you sure you're not lying? Obviously in the video it's a woman's victim." Cut off some dissatisfied reporters with Chery's answer.


"The video? What video are you talking about?" Chery hasn't even seen her phone since last night, so she doesn't know what's going on.


As he pulled out his phone, dozens of messages and missed calls appeared on his screen, and tens of thousands of social media account notifications immediately appeared, Chery opened a video message from Dion, the video contains footage of the accident that occurred that night, and the pieces of the puzzle that had disappeared from his memory re-integrated, he immediately recalled the whole incident that night after seeing the video until it ran out.


Chery's face paled, it turns out that the woman who often came every night was the victim's face that was recorded clearly in his memory and stuck in his memory did not want to leave, the shadow appeared because he had killed him.


Unsurprisingly, two police cars arrived and eight police officers dispersed a crowd of journalists, including Fajar and Arjuna, who led the arrivals.


"Good morning Miss Chery Arleta, I am Arjuna Bimantara from the central unit would like to submit your arrest warrant on the charge of hit-and-run that caused the death of the victim and also attempted legal fraud by replacing your position as a defendant and transferring it to people else," Arjuna stood before Chery carrying some sheets of paper, his gaze looking unfamiliar, unlike Arjuna's gaze he saw while on the loving island, this time his gaze was extremely cold and it was as if they had never known each other.


Chery was speechless, she didn't even have a word to defend herself, Arjuna who used to be the first and foremost person to save him from danger even death just now seems to accidentally drown him in the ocean without a buoy, Chery alone, lonely, lonely, it was like being on the verge of death.


"Brist, take him!" feeling no response from Chery, Arjuna finally ordered Fajar to handcuff and bring his idol aris in accordance with his promise.


Flashes of camera blitz lights rained down second after second catching the top famous artist, this would be the hottest news and become a money field for journalists, he said, but instead this was the breaking point of Chery Arleta, whose decades-long career she had built with blood and sweat had to crumble and end that day.


There was no resistance whatsoever from Chery, she was devastated in everything at the moment, the person she loved so much became the leader in her arrest, not to mention he had time to read a message from the mother that contained 'Don't involve me and your stepfather in your case, Hasan is advancing in the nomination, you will ruin his reputation.'


This is the end of the life of a great artist Chery Arleta, who when successful in puja, but when slumped in humiliation and left it.


Like a buffalo on the nose, Chery can only obey and surrender where the officers take him, Arjuna occasionally steal a glance through the tip of his eye, ensuring Chery's condition is certainly not okay at this time, but not once did Chery set her sights on Arjuna, her gaze blank, and she vowed never to ask Arjuna for help.


"You still have time to admit everything, and I will help you to make your sentence lighter" Arjuna said as Chery was led into custody by Dawn earlier.


"Thank you, I'd rather die than beg for mercy from you, I don't want to owe you any more." said Chery coldly.


"But in fact you still owe me one life, Chery Arleta!" Arjuna smiled obliquely.


"Are we not even?" Chery frowning.


"No, you still owe me." Arjuna hurried to leave the detention room, his heart was not strong enough to linger seeing Chery in such a state of disintegration, even though it was because of her actions and her wishes.


"Supervise the prisoner well, 1x24 hours should not be off guard, make sure the condition is always good, and do not let any other prisoner dare to touch it, let alone to dare to hurt him, make sure the food is on time, and do not let any other prisoners dare to touch it, you gotit?" Arjuna warned the picket officers in the detention room.


His heart did not feel calm and happy in the slightest, even though he had fulfilled his promise to give justice to Luna.


His heart ached and hurt, it was not as simple as he thought, Arjuna never thought that there would be things that did not match what he expected in the achievement of his wishes, achievement that does not make him feel proud at all, does not make him feel great, but rather the achievement is just like turning to torture his own inner self.


Arjuna asked his heart several times, 'Is this really what he wants?'
