The Love of the Captain

You think I don't know?

Chery's third day behind bars, it felt like a thirty-year torment to Chery, time went very slowly in the cell, making the confined Chery as if he had no spirit of life anymore, no one came to visit him, not even Arjuna showed his nose.

While currently Arjuna was standing behind a pillar that hid his body while gazing into the female holding room, it was already these three days, already, Arjuna went back and forth and sometimes came home almost in the morning from the building just to see Chery from a distance and make sure she was okay inside, even if it was impossible, no one will ever be okay if his freedom is forcibly taken away.

Sometimes Arjuna chided himself when he saw Chery tearfully with a blank look while hugging her own knee on the cold prisoner floor, wanting Arjuna to run and hug her , but the ego always seems to hold him back, guilt millions of times present in him, and question what madness he suffered until he hurt the woman he loved until like that.

A handsome man was seen approaching the picket guards in the holding room, and he sat impatiently in the prisoner's meeting room.

The man got up from his seat and immediately rushed to greet Chery who came with two officers who drove him.

"Chery, I'm sorry, I just got your word, I flew home when I found out what happened to you."

"Sean Malik?" muttered Arjuna who continued to follow Chery's footsteps from a distance and of course was stealthy.

"Sean, help me. I'm scared!" chery's tears ran down the river, they just ran down his cheeks, he hugged Sean tightly around his waist and for the second time spilled his sorrow on the man's chest.

The words that Chery spoke were so familiar to Arjuna's ears, the girl said the same thing several times when she had a nightmare in her sleep, her expression was the same as Chery currently showed, the only difference is the chest where Chery leaned and the waist that she hugged tightly to look for strength, Arjuna felt burned when his position was now taken over by Sean, without him realizing that he himself was the one who indirectly handed over his current position to Sean.

The rumbling of anger and sadness rose in Arjuna's chest, and it was still clear that Cheri's words were said that she would rather die than beg for help from him, and now Chery asked another man for help, she even cried on the man's chest, the girl was frightened all this time because of her actions, but always tried to look as strong as the coral in the ocean that still stands despite the waves and storms.

"I'm here, I'll definitely help you, calm down. Tell me what happened I'm here, I'm on your side and I trust you." Said Sean.

The Duarrrr!

Sean's words sounded like a roar that deafened Arjuna's ears, how could he who claimed to love Chery never try to ask nicely, he did not believe him and he treated Chery as an enemy.

A series of stories flowed from Chery's mouth, inaudible lies there, no spotlight lies also in his eyes, starting from the story of him who intends to meet his mother at the house of Hasan, he said, then his stepfather who tried to be rude to him, and he who suddenly dizzy in the middle of the road and his eyes can not focus on seeing the road, can not focus on the road, also about the story of Dion and his mother who convinced him that the person he hit was a man, all Chery told clearly in accordance with what he experienced.

"Are you sick that night?" ask Sean.

"No, I'm in good health, as I remember, I just drank some syrup at my stepfather's house and got dizzy, when I wanted to go home, he tried to harass me, he said, I ran and drove my car at high speed because Hasan's men were chasing me." Chery Beber.

Arjuna's head became very dizzy to hear the story that Chery told Sean and he stole the discreet listen, has he been unfair to Chery? If what Chery told you just now is the truth, isn't she already being unfair to Chery, because it's not entirely the girl's fault.

"Why are you looking for me here, didn't I tell you that I'm here never to look for me or bother me."Arjuna looks very angry, he feels Dawn has ruined the reconnaissance event he did.

"Miss Ines searched for you since, he kept urging me to find you, Ndan."

"Akh, that woman doesn't have any other job than to bother me!" annoyed Arjuna makes Fajar feel confused, why Arjuna does not seem to like every time he is visited by Ines, then if not Ines who was talked about when Arjuna was drunk at the club, then which woman again, if not Ines, who was talking about when Arjuna was drunk at the club, because obviously Arjuna said that it wasn't Luna, and it didn't seem like Ines either.

"Darling, from anywhere, I was so worried about getting word that you were called by my father, did my father make things difficult for you? Scolding you? Tell me, I'll just rebuke my father right now." Sure enough, Ines had already confronted him in front of his study.

"Ehemm, sorry to interrupt your time captain, can we talk to you for a second?" when it came, Sean suddenly stood behind his back.

"Of course it's very disturbing." Cynical Ines.

"I'm sorry, I have to accept my guest first, I'm sure there's something very important that you want a famous lawyer like Sean Malik to talk to me about" Arjuna said, to be honest, he was not too happy to have to talk to the man who had just hugged Chery in front of his eyes, but to accept her to speak, she said, Arjuna so have a reason to avoid Ines who continue to spin around him at all times.

"Am I not important enough to you?" Ines sulking.

"Ines come on, it's working hours, we can talk when I get home from work, okay!" refer to Arjuna, how the pundia still needs the woman to help Berto mission.

With a heavy heart Ines relented, after stomping his feet, he left with a very upset face.

"What do you want to talk to me about, Sean sir?" Arjuna pretends he doesn't know what Sean meant to see him, but he can already guess that it must be Chery.

"Of course about Chery, I want to file for a hold-up or make Chery a city prisoner" Sean said casually.

"meaning?" Arjuna frowned.

"Ah, I thought you could guess when you saw us talking, actually I wanted to talk to you directly while you were in the detention building, but you suddenly disappeared." sean smiled faintly.

"Oh, I just dropped the file there, and rushed back here because my girlfriend was waiting for me here, as you can see. I didn't even know you were there." replied Arjuna lying, he didn't think that his presence in the detention building was known by Sean, but Arjuna still calm.

"O." Oo." Sean answered briefly but meaningfully, Oo said, which Sean meant sounded ambiguous between the lawyer believing in Arjuna's words or just another word from 'You think I don't know?'
