The Love of the Captain

Mystery messages

"Where are you going, Yang? I told my mom and dad that you could come, you know!" Ines said upset, today is his birthday, but Arjuna instead asked permission to miss attending dinner with his family after getting a phone call from someone who admitted to calling about the work.

"I'm sorry, I have a sudden job, I think you should be able to understand, you were raised in an apparatus like me, you know, where I should be ready at any time whenever there's a job call." Bright Arjuna asked for Ines' understanding.

"But--" Ines is eager to protest, but it cannot be denied that what Arjuna says is true, having a lover as an apparatus like Arjuna must be ready to share time with the community in need.

"Here you go, I'll come back here, if my work is done quickly." Arjuna said goodbye and left the residence of Ines' parents who were also his superiors.

Despite her heavy heart, Ines finally relented and let Arjuna go and missed dinner with his family in her birthday party tonight.

Arjuna rushed out of the mansion to his car which he parked in the yard, in between Ines who let go with an unhappy face.

Tores contacted her and said that something bad happened in Chery's apartment, making Arjuna feel like a beard fire heard her, so he immediately left Ines' birthday show on the grounds of work, because honestly he was not comfortable in that place, too, if only Berto did not tell him to be in a relationship with his superior son, he also did not feel interested in Ines who felt too aggressive and always disturbed him every time.

"Tores, who's dat-9Chery speech stopped)-- A-Arjuna? why are you here?" Chery looks confused when she wants to ask about who the guests are being welcomed by Tores in the living room of her apartment, and it turns out that the guest is Arjuna.

"Are you okay?" Arjuna looked at Chery who still looked confused with eyes that looked at Tores as if asking for an explanation about the arrival of Arjuna this afternoon in his apartment.

"I was forced to contact the Commander to take care of you, because I really have interests to take care of." Tores said that was not entirely lying, in vain was indeed called by Berto to docked to the office in the Capital, but he did not have the heart to leave Chery alone, actually he could have contacted Sean for help to have the lawyer accompany him, only that he preferred to contact Arjuna to replace his temporary duties in guarding Chery.

"Tores, I told you earlier that I'm fine and nothing will happen even if I have to be home alone, I can take care of myself, no need to bother others like this." Chery said she felt bad because she could interfere with Arjuna's activities.

"I don't feel bothered." Answer Arjuna.

"No, the command just do not feel bothered, any rich like who is Cher, use condescension all. I'm going yes, nitip Chery Ndan!" Unwilling to argue and be blamed by Chery and Arjuna, Tores leaves Chery's apartment and leaves behind a pair of awkward humans.

"If you have other business or or other activities, I'm fine living alone, I'm brave, really." Chery said when she saw Arjuna's grooming that was very neat as usual, like she was about to attend a formal event or the like, of course she would feel bad if Arjuna had to cancel the event, to accompany himself.

"I told you earlier, I don't mind." Arjuna opened his suit and draped on the back of the sofa, to make it feel more relaxed, Arjuna did not really like formal clothes like that, it's just that it was to respect his superiors and Ines' coercion of course, he finally wants to wear a suit that makes him feel cold heat because the flash back will be the last wedding suit he tried to carry out the wedding instead becomes a disaster, because he took his bridal suit that he had not had time to take it was Luna finally lost her life, when his future wife took his suit in bridal.

Not that he could not move on from Luna and as if putting aside the feelings he felt for Chery, everyone could recover quickly from his injuries, but not everyone can recover quickly from the trauma in nature, maybe that's what happened to Arjuna at this time.

Chery may be able to be a cure for the wounds of her heart that live in Luna, but the trauma will lose only she herself is able to cure it.

"It looks like you're just about-or just finished attending an event, am I interrupting your show?"

"There's a lot of groceries in the fridge, it just so happened that Sean just sent them here yesterday." Said Chery plainly, maybe too often hang out with Tores so that he is afraid to talk plain like that without caring if the look on the face of Arjuna who is his interlocutor now turns sour when Sean's name is mentioned.

"What do you want me to do? I'm unemployed now, so my spare time I use to learn to cook from Tores." Connect Chery as if unaware of Arjuna's facial water change.

"Emhhh, I'll order online." Arjuna pulled out his phone and was busy packing his screen while choosing the food he wanted on the delivery service.

"Ah, don't get me wrong, Sean did that because my movement is still limited, and I can't shop or do any activities in public spaces." Chery tried to explain after just catching something strange with Arjuna's attitude, really she did not mean to make Arjuna upset by calling Sean's name just now, she just told the truth, she just said the truth, after all, it should not be a problem for Arjuna considering that Arjuna is also not who he is and now has another woman.

"I see, thank God you get a good lover and attention like him." Arjuna said, though his words sounded insincere.

"Sean is not my lover, between us there is nothing but a relationship between a lawyer and a client only." Somehow Chery was so excited to explain to Arjuna about his relationship with Sean as if he did not want Arjuna to misunderstand his relationship with the lawyer who had helped him a lot, it was, but shouldn't Chery do that, because Arjuna is Chery's nobody.

"There's no need to hide it from me, after all Sean Malik seems like a good man, he also looks very considerate and is so persistent in fighting for you."

"Of course he's persistent in my defense, he's my lawyer, that's his duty, we really have nothing to do outside of it all." Keukeuh Chery who does not feel having any other relationship other than his legal relationship, after all, Sean has never touched on feelings, either, Sean was quite professional from the beginning of their introduction in the hotel restaurant when he was in a dispute with Meta and Kamil.

"But I see your relationship more than that." Arjuna did not lose his power, though, maybe because it is based on jealousy of the closeness of Chery and Sean so that he looks like a man who does not know to be ashamed of things that should not be inappropriate he is jealous because between himself and Chery there is no status bond whatsoever, and it is not he who leaves Chery in this case, more still he leaves it without certainty just because of ego and revenge, until finally he began to realize that revenge did not make his pain disappear, but it actually got worse, unfortunately after he began to realize it, as all too late, as if, there are other men who pay more attention to Chery even though the girl denies having a relationship with Sean.

"Give up, it's hard to talk to a skeptic like you, you just believe in your own views and thoughts, and doubt everything beyond that." Chery shrugged both of her shoulders indifferently, she already did not know how to explain to Arjuna about the truth of her relationship with Sean.

After a moment of silence from the debate, Chery turned to Arjuna, shortly after he opened a message on his phone.

"Juna, what car did you drive when you came here?" Ask Chery.

"What's wrong?"

"What is this car?" Chery showed a picture of a black suv parked in the basement of the apartment and was filled with spray paint scribbles containing threatening inscriptions, 'DISTART CHERY SI KUSASAN!' and other harsh words that are clearly on the screen of his phone.

Seeing the photo, Arjuna immediately recognized that it was his car.

"Who sent you that message?" Arjuna robs Chery's phone and checks the number of the sender of the message, which has sent several threatening messages to Chery.
