She's my lawyer? What is my soul mate? - NurulAjijah



"Alina hurry! We'll be late!" Shouted Ananta to me.


"I'm patient why the hell!" I answered Ananta.


"You've been doing it anyway, taking a really long shower! We could be bad to know!"


"Iya-iya sorry, I've been trying to squeeze her bath! Let's just go!" I said to Ananta, who would not discuss my delay.


After saying that, I got straight into the car. Ananta got in the car, he started the engine, and stepped on the gas slowly. I'm Alina Kurniawan, I'm a twenty-three year old girl.


My job is a designer, my career is quite successful. I already own a brand, already have a boutique and some employees.


Next to me is Ananta, he is my best friend, he is always there in my joys and sorrows. I've known him since we were kids, our parents were friends. That's what makes us so close. Three months ago I was devastated, because both my parents died in an accident. Until now the man who hit both my parents, has not been arrested, because he has power. It can be said he is a famous businessman and has a strong influence.


So I'm hard to deal with, but I have a friend, he's a detective. He wants to help me find all the evidence to punish the man. His name is Edo, he is the fiancee of Ananta. They love each other, they are planning to get married this year. I'm so happy with this good news.


"We've heard Alina, I hope you don't get emotional this time! Because he's the only lawyer, who's willing to help us sue Mr. Kusuma!" Ananta said to me.


"Yes-yes I'll hold back my emotions, because he can help me!" I answered with a little annoyance.


"Good! Since all this is for your sake, Edo is trying hard to find all the evidence of the accident! So I hope you're not wasting your hard work!" Anata said with affirmation.


"Every Miss Ananta, I will carry out all Miss's orders!" Answer me with a little joke.


"Place...!"


Ananta flicked my forehead it hurt so much, "stop it Ananta, it hurts tofu! You've always been like that since we were kids!"


"Hahaha you deserve it!"


After our conversation in the car, we finally arrived at a two-story office. The office can be said to be very luxurious, it seems like he is a good lawyer. Maybe his age is middle age, ahh I do not know how old he is. Ananta didn't give me complete information about the lawyer.


Ananta parked the car, after which we got out of the car. We stepped into the building, it was true that this building is very luxurious and classy. Everything looks harmonious from the combination of color and architecture. We were greeted by a beautiful young woman. He's the secretary of the lawyer I'm going to meet. The secretary was very friendly, I was very happy with his welcome.


Geck...


Geck...


Geck...


The secretary knocked on the door of a room so big, maybe this is the lawyer's room.


"Lake in!" A man's words from inside the room.


The secretary opened the door, she allowed us to follow her into the room. After we entered, I was amazed by the decor of this room. This room was so elegant but exuded the masculine of a man.


"Sir, I'll take guests who have an appointment with you!" Say secretary to his boss.


"Thank you, you made a drink for my guests! After that you continue your work!"


"Okay Sir!" Answer the secretary, and leave the room immediately.


I can't see clearly what this lawyer looks like. Because he was sitting on his back to us, his chair was facing out the window. Moments later, the chair he was sitting in moved around, I finally saw what this lawyer looks like. I was so surprised, it turned out that he was so young, I thought he was old. Maybe he was thirty years old and above.


Wait, isn't he the guy who was at the cafe last night! He was a perverted guy who made out with two girls at once. I swear what dream I had last night, had to meet this perverted man. Staying in the lawyer again, I can't believe what I'm seeing.


"Hallo Miss Ananta how are you?" Ask the young lawyer.


"I'm fine!" Answer Ananta.


"Is the one next to Miss the friend you talked to me about!"


"True Master, he is the friend I told you about!" Ananta.


"Greetings Miss, I'm Faisal just call me with Fais!" Fais said to me as he extended his hand to shake hands with me.


"Greetings to Mr. Fais, I'm Alina!" I answered without returning his hand.


Anata nudged me and said, "be nice a little time don't throw a tantrum!"


I ignored the words of Ananta. I'm lazy to argue with him right now.


"Well then, let's get straight to the topic! Are you willing to handle my case?" Ask Fais.


"I've read all the documents given by Edo, I'll help you! But what we're about to face, he's a businessman who has a strong influence in the field of law." Fais answered seriously.


"Are you afraid of Mr. Fais!" Ask me in a sniffle tone.


"Dina!" Ananta elbowed me again to stop my speech.


"If you're afraid, don't you go ahead with the case! I'm gonna find another lawyer to help me!" Answer me.


"Alina, can you calm down a bit!" Ananta told me.


"It's Ananta, I'd better just go! Why am I here, if he's afraid of facing that person!" I answered Ananta and left them.


"I'm sorry for my friend's attitude! He still felt sad and angry, as a result of the accident that caused both of his parents to die. He wanted to punish the person who caused the accident, even until two years had passed, he was still fighting for justice!" Ananta told Fais.


"It's ok, I can understand it! I'll rethink everything, I'll call you how I decided!" Fais replied to Ananta.


"Alright, then I'm sorry Mr. Fais!" Ananta said as he left Fais's room.


I'm still pissed off, every lawyer I meet they're scared of confronting the criminal. 'Mother's father forgive me yes, can not punish the person who has harmed you!' I said in my heart. But I will never give up until I can punish the criminal.


"Lake in!" Ananta told me to get in the car.


He must have been very angry at me, clearly visible with his expression and tone of speech. I followed her words to get in the car.


"You're! I told you not to be weird, he's the only lawyer we can ask for help with!" Ananta said in a furious tone.


"I don't want him to be my lawyer! I don't like him anyway!" Answer me to Ananta.


"What makes you dislike him huh!"


"I saw him yesterday at a cafe, he made out with two girls! She's so perverted I don't like her nature!" Answer me.


****


Tonight I will attend a party, usually I go with Ananta, but tonight he cannot accompany me. He has a plan with Edo, I can't ban him because every time he's with me. It didn't feel like two weeks after my meeting with her, I thought I wouldn't see her again. Damn why I had to see him again.


I'd rather pretend I didn't see him than face him. I've only met this man for the first time. Ahh this party is so boring, I better get some fresh air. If it's not wrong there's a park out there. I had the impression that after that I just went home, I stepped on my feet towards the park. I sat in a chair, looking up at the beautiful sky at night, full of stars.


"Plac...!"


I was surprised to hear such a loud slap, I looked around me to look for the direction of the sound. My gaze was fixed on the lovers, I saw carefully it turned out that he was Fais the termesum lawyer I first met. I better get out of here, than I have to deal with him. As I was leaving, I heard the woman's insults and insults to Fais. I think it's been very outrageous, the remark was very inappropriate to be uttered by a woman.


Without me noticing I stepped closer to them, and said what I wanted to say. So that made that woman leave me and Fais. After the woman left, I thought for a moment why am I defending her. I'd better get out of here, why am I still here. As I stepped to leave, my hand was suddenly pulled by Fais.


"What are you doing! Take off my hands!" I said to Fais.


"Wait a minute, why are you defending me?"


"Where is it! Actually I have no intention of petrifying you!"


"Don't lie, have you started liking me?" Ask Fais to me.


"Hahahaha is too confident once you are Lord Fais!" I answered Fais and left him.


"I'll handle your case!" Shouted Fais.


I stopped my steps and said, "don't push yourself if you can't!"


"How about we bet? If I win your case, you'll have to be mine!"


I thought for a moment before accepting his challenge, whether he would be able to fight against my enemies who have such powerful power and influence in the field of law. Because there are many lawyers who refuse to handle my case. Well let me try, I want to see how good he is.


"All right, I accept your challenge! If you win I will be yours! If you lose what's the profit for me?" I said to Fais.


"If I lose, I'll follow everything you want! How's it?" Answer Fais.


"OK!" I said with my hand out, confirming our bet.


"OK!" Fais received my hand and we shook hands.


*****


A week after our betting agreement, I received a letter from the court. The contents are the agenda of the trial of the accident case of Father and Mother. Fais managed to open the case back. In the letter is the date of the trial. And today is the initial trial of my case.


I was present at this trial with Ananta and Edo. I saw the face of the man who had caused Father and Mother to die. I hate him so much, it feels like I want to beat him to nothing. I saw that person's facial expression did not emit any regret. His face was beaming, indicating he knew he was going to be free.


The trial started, everything went well. I see Fais as being so different when he's in court. Turns out he's a good lawyer. All the statements of the suspect can be broken. The first trial is over, I know it takes time. But I'll see when Fais will finish it.


The second trial was well conducted, Fais managed to find accurate evidence. All evidence points to the suspect. Finally the suspect was thrown, into prison with a life sentence, at the third trial.


A week after that trial, Fais charged the promise of the bet we were running. And it was Fais who won, I couldn't do anything more. Because I also agreed to the bet. Fais asked me to be his lover for the rest of his life, I accepted. With some conditions that he had to meet, one of them he had to stop chasing the women. He agreed with all the conditions I gave him.


End.
