A Little Hope For Ashma
4. In dangerous situations

After subverting all his enemies Adam hurried away with Ashma. Without a vehicle and a destination, Adam needs a cell phone to contact his men.

"I still keep your promise, Mr. Adam. You must take me home safely!" Adam heard the fourth time the woman next to him said the same thing.

"It won't be safe if you go home" Adam replied. Ashma scrunched her forehead.

"What do you mean?" Ashma did not understand why she would not survive.

"You've dealt with me." Ashma increasingly does not understand Adam's words, why he should be in danger with what he never did. Ashma has never committed any criminal activity.

"I don't want to know if I want to go home, I want to see my grandmother!" Ashma remains with her wishes, she does not want to be stuck too long with the foreign man. Ashma doesn't want to be in danger anymore, she just wants to go home to see her Grandma.

"Hard-headed." Adam Say. Ashma is not happy with Adam.

"I borrowed your phone." Ashma wishes Adam would lend him a cell phone, when Ashma's car falls down and cannot be turned on when it is his only hope to be able to contact Amith's uncle.

"My phone fell too."

Ashma sighed heavily, let alone this ordeal.

They continued walking until they finally found a resident's house, this seemed to be on the western edge of Palestine. Ashma fell silent, as soon as the bad memory recalled again.

"Wait here." The man came to a local resident while Ashma was rumbling in light of the dark incident.

Adam remotely looked at Ashma who looked like he was agitated and Adam decided to come to Ashma after he finished borrowing a cell phone from one of the residents there.

"You why?" Adam asked him while Ashma did not want to answer he just shook his head. Adam did not take a headache and instructed Ashma to follow him.

"Where are we going?" Again Ashma asked.

"home." As soon as Ashma developed her smile, she was looking forward to going home and meeting her grandmother.

But Ashma thought again, Adam here why not ask her where her grandmother's house is.

"My grandmother's house is in-" Adam interrupted.

"You're going home to me." Adam continued while Ashma was surprised, what was the meaning of the words of this front man.

"You're crazy!" Ashma swears annoyed.

"They've seen you, I'm sure they'll find you again. You should know, if you go home I can't guarantee your life and your grandmother will be safe."

Ashma was getting upset, why did the man seem to be holding her back.

"Are you a criminal just like them? You rob, the Mafia or..."

"Do you feel intimidated and afraid of me?"

"No, instead I want to hit that cheeky face of yours."

"Good."

"you're really not sane."

"Whatever."

The black car drove from a distant direction very fast and stopped right where they were standing. Adam immediately pulled Ashma's arm covered in a long-sleeved cloth.

"Hey I just want to go home, this is Palestine I've arrived. Please release!" ashma shouted so shrillly, she became parno like a woman in abduction.

Adam is forced to put Ashma's body in the car as if he were kidnapping her.

"Basic shithead!" ashma chokes for how dare Adam treat her like a kidnapper.

In the car Ashma cursed Adam. "You must be a criminal, right?" Adam behaved indifferently as the woman said so.

Adam chirped in annoyance, "if I'm a criminal why are you so calm?"

Ashma looked at him cynically, but to be honest she did not feel afraid of this man beside her.

During Ashma's unrelenting journey of babbling and it bothered Adam deeply, Adam was eager to stuff the woman's lips together.

"You are a noisy woman!"

Ashma looked at Adam not like it. "If you want my mouth to shut, quickly bring me back, sir."

"Can't!"

"I hate you!" Ashma turned her face to hold back tears, not because she was whiny but Ashma really missed her grandmother and she just wanted to go home.

Adam let out a long sigh when he saw the woman next to him shedding tears. "I'm sorry if you had to get involved with my problem, but I did this temporarily to keep you safe and not want to involve a lot of people who would be victims." Adam Obviously. Ashma looked at him questioningly.

"Explain it correctly!" Ashma asked for an explanation.

Ashma looked at Adam with a frustrated expression. "I don't understand what you mean by 'together with you for a while'. What the hell is going on?"

Adam answered patiently, "There is someone who is hunting me, Ashma. That person is very dangerous, and I don't want to involve anyone else in my problems. I want to protect you."

Ashma was still very confused but he chose silence because various bad thoughts now appeared in his head.

Not long after the car they rode finally arrived, Ashma inevitably followed the big steps of Adam with some of his men who look very creepy.

"Where are we going?" Ashma whispered while offsetting Adam's footsteps.

"Not much to ask." Ketus Adam's. Ashma glared.

"Jhon is it ready?" Adam called someone from there.

After Adam turned off his phone, Adam suddenly pulled Ashma's arm a little tight.

"Hey sir let go!" Adam did not care. Ashma was a little in pain from her hand-stroke.

Upon reaching his ultimate goal Adam let go of Ashma's hand. Ashma was once again confused to see the helicopter in front of her.

"You don't intend to use this, do you?"

"Lake in."

"What?"

"Lake in!"

"No way!"

Ashma continued to refuse until Adam's patience was over the limit and he held Ashma to let the woman into the helicopter. Ashma was shocked and angry. Ashma is angry that a foreign man she just met dared to touch her.

"Fuck let go!" Ashma knocks Adam's back. Adam who had managed to put Ashma into the helicopter then held his cheek that had been slapped by Ashma.

"Crazy woman, why did you slap me?" Adam raised the intonation of his voice.

"You have dared to touch me, sir."

Adam scrunched his forehead. "Stupid, I didn't touch you."

"You've touched me!"

"I'm just holding you to get in the helicopter right away."

"You're a real jerk." Ashma looked at him with anger.

"You crazy woman where there I touch you."

"I'm a Muslim woman, and you've dared to touch me." Adam scrunched his forehead.

"What?"

"All I can touch is my husband."

"Hmhh so."

"Well lose as soon as I'll marry you." Ashma was surprised not to play over Adam's words.

"Crazy. Where do I want to marry you anyway I don't want to marry a criminal like you!" he was very angry as Adam said, very sensitive.

Adam was shocked to hear Ashma's sudden words. He did not expect such a reaction from the woman before him.

"What are you talking about? I don't intend to marry you, it's just a joke." Adam said in astonishment. Ashma was not out of thought, where there was such a joke.

Ashma looked at him with courage. "Then you have no right to touch me. I will not allow you to violate the principles of my religion."

Adam frowned, trying to understand what was going on. "You know, it's not a good time to talk about something like this. We're in danger, and I just want to keep you safe."

"No matter what happens, I will not ignore my principles. I'd rather die than break it" Ashma said firmly.

Adam felt a little speechless by Ashma's bravery. Although she did not fully understand his words, but she began to respect the woman's determination.

"All right, I understand. I will respect your principles" Adam said in a soft voice. "But right now, we have to focus on the situation. I'll protect you as best I can."

Ashma looked at the sincere expression on Adam's face and felt a little calmer. He begins to understand that the man does not seem to mean anything evil, but Ashma remains to be vigilant.

The helicopter began to move, leaving Ashma with questions and doubts. However, Ashma only wants to meet her grandmother but seeing the situation now Ashma feels she is really insecure.
