The end of the corridor was already beginning to be seen, revealing a striped window. On the left and right side there are doors. Rani then tries to open the left door. Apparently locked. And the right door.
"Great, I think I'm stuck."
Even if the window at the end of the corridor was not terrace, Rani still could not jump down. He could have broken a bone, or worse, died. Rani also could not run back and try to open the other doors that had been passed by him, because it was the same as running to welcome the thug.
The thug starts to slow down his run once he realizes Rani is trapped. Now he walked, step by step, closer to Rani.
Rani clutched Martin's laptop tightly to her chest, as if it could protect her. Maybe the laptop can protect it. At least he can use the laptop to hit the thug's head if he dares to mess with her.
”No longer running yes, Neng Beautiful?” that hoodlum. The horrible grin never left his face. ”Makanya, rather than running, mingling here Brother dear-sayang.”
Seduced like that, it felt like Rani wanted to throw up. The thug approached him. There are only three steps left, and he will reach where Rani stands.
”Stop!” Suddenly, Melly's voice came out. The thug immediately stopped—not because he obeyed Melly, but more because of shock—then he turned around, and found Melly standing trembling while carrying a piece of wood. Melly lifted the piece of wood, preparing to hit. ”K-kalo lo keep approaching, I will p-hit lo.”
”Neng Beautiful dare mukul Abang?” challenge that thug. He took a step forward to approach Melly, and Melly spontaneously moved a step—but back—makes the thug laugh disdainfully. ”Kok Neng Beautiful even backwards?”
Rani knows for sure, Melly's lifetime has never hit anyone, so obviously she wouldn't dare hit that thug. But Rani salutes him, because instead of hiding, Melly comes to her rescue.
When the thug's attention is not on Rani, Rani tries to sneak past her. Just as Rani moved a little, the thug turned back around. It turned out that his attempt to get through the thugs had failed. The thug was really careful.
Ah, errata. Apparently he's not that old. Maybe the thug just happened to turn around. The proof, he did not even realize the misfortune that would soon befall him.
Someone appeared from behind Melly, taking the piece of wood that Melly— held Melly's hand position remained unchanged even though the piece of wood was no longer in her hand, signifying he didn't expect anyone would take it—then the guy smacked it into the thug's head. Without any more excuse, the thug immediately fell unconscious.
Not with Martin's laptop, the thug was instead hit with a piece of wood. Fainted anyway.
”Tristan!” yell Melly panicked. It was Tristan who hit that thug. ”You killed him!”
”I didn't hit him that hard, until I could kill him,” Tristan denied. He threw the piece of wood he was holding onto the floor. ”She just fainted.”
”Kalo I did not hit him, could-can he call help.” Tristan is defending himself. ”Again, you better stop worrying about that thug, and start worrying about yourself. I'm so angry with you again. What the hell are you, showing up here at will? I almost had a heart attack when I saw you and Amanda take the stairs. Good thing I saw, what about Martin gang members or Chebol gang members?”
Diomeli so, Melly immediately pouted. But maybe because he knew he was wrong, he didn't fight Tristan.
”Omong-by the way, where's Amanda?” ask Tristan.
”Here.” I heard Amanda's answer. Fearfully, he approached them. Where has he been, just showed up now?
Tristan's nagging soon passes to his sister. ”You must have interrupted my conversation with Ghevin, then relayed it to Melly,” he accused. ”Do you not know how dangerous it is to come here?”
Amanda's not fighting Tristan either. He just looked down.
”And lo!” the Sentak Tristan on Rani. Jesus, it turns out Rani got sprayed too! ”Ghevin desperately tried to protect you, but you even want to walk here, like this mall. Use the show ngajak Amanda and Melly, again.”
"Ih, Ghevin was asking Tristan to help him, now he is defending Ghevin. And what did he say? A walk? Does he not see whose laptop I now hold?"
Tristan did not know it was Martin's laptop, and photos of who was inside. If he knew, he would still be angry.
The counterattack is ready to be launched by Rani, but it is eventually undone. "Melly and Amanda can't resist Tristan, I can't?"
”Come, you guys should get out of here right away!” tristan's orders. His left hand was clutching Amanda's arm, while his right hand was clutching Melly's arm. Regardless of the protests of the two, he started dragging them away.
Not wanting to be alone in that place, Rani immediately followed.
